Agreed. A large portion of "his" repos are forked from other people's. You can't tell what his level of contribution to any of them is at a glance. Also, he's got an absurd number of files for a project called "Hello World". Perhaps a bette

It looks like the submitter added a & to the end of the URL. This is generally considered to be cheating. I guess it worked out this time though... There are probably a few articles out there that will tell you the best time to submit a

I will always remember grade 4 because that was the year when I was forbidden from asking questions. I don't recall if they were dumb questions, but there sure were a lot of them. It's okay though, because I didn't learn anything from that

I just skimmed over this, and was rather bothered by the fact that they just jump directly into syntax. There's essentially zero discussion about simulation or design. Writing VHDL isn't programming. If you treat it like it is, you might ge

Someone saw "artistic value" in a bunch of soup cans[0], so I'm not sure that the phrase, "artistic value" has an actual meaning. [0] http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Campbell%27s_Soup_Cans

DRM-free games are becoming more and more popular these days. Look at the Humble Indie Bundles, for example. You get 3-6 indie games which are completely free from DRM (and in some cases are open source!) for as much or as little as you car
