Don’t forget 1987’s Bony a klid which had Frankie goes to Hollywood’s "Relax" as a main music theme (legaly) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rg2w5uE-814 And then there are also Návštěvníci (The visitors) which is

That must be some kind of joke on their side because e. g. Michael Jackon’s Thriller was released in CS in 1984 by Supraphon (LP monopoly at the time). Access to the west music was certainly limited but not impossible, due to proximity to A

Describing Red as Rebol3 like is not fair IMO, it goes beyond that in many aspects - there is a compiler, C-level dialect (Red/System), reactive framework, ... Anyway, Arturo looks interesting and I'm looking forward to try it!

I was born in late 70's in Czechoslovakia so I remember the communist regime with its propaganda. I'm all for free speech but when I see propaganda I want to smash it with a steel tube which probably makes me pro-censorship. I sti

And I do think that using their market share to push "standards" no-one else agreed on is what actually makes them the new MS/IE. Should Firefox just catch upon what Chrome already has implemented or should the standards be d

Let's not pretend it did. Media in US, UK and Western Europe aren't controlled by single entity. What is happening in Hungaria right now is basically getting back to socialist one-party regime, even if this time it's right-wi

Precise gears are hard, as you need a metal that is good enough for your gears and tools to craft that metal. It's not just about time.
