No, not at all. Volume ≠ Weight. Another example: Some books use paper with bigger volume (so it looks thicker) but of course they are not twice as heavy suddenly.

Great! My interested in Lua was actually sparked by knowing you could write pandoc plugins with it.

Fun thing: It might even help. I actually like this possibility since it gives you more meaning: E.g. I would always tag localized strings by encapsulating them differently. It's great!

Corporate America never ceases to amaze me (in bad ways, of course). Things like this always read like a "The Onion" headline. Anybody able to explain why this would be an offense? I mean, patent numbers are visible to everyone, s

I beg to differ. Having them all in one folder is actually exactly what I want. Storing them into folders is just giving you problems. I would need to put them into many folders, to get any benefits, but than again, this could be done by ta

What I am most amazed of is how they manage to get my actual location always right... I mean, we all now those "geolocate me" things on websites, but I've never encountered a single page where it worked; it's always hi

Sad to see them go and see the industry losing even more competition. Had a couple of Olympus' and was always delighted by their quality. But on the other hand the underlying problem is quite true: Since the advent of the smartphone I

Yes, the NURBS (surface) modeler "Rhino" is one – or rather was; meanwhile it got a Mac version, but that one still has no feature parity, so you would still see this running in Parallels somewhere, I guess.

Okay, so Rosetta will be great for the beginning, but in the long run? How hard will it be for large Multi-OS code bases (think Photoshop/Maya/CAD etc...) to adopt and to maintain?

Still alot, I'd reason. Especially – and funnily enough – in business contexts, where you need to run software which are each only available on either Mac or Windows, but not both.

Still no real alternative when on a Github page, or am I missing something? It's not that I really need statistics, but sometimes it would be nice to know if there is even anything going on or you're just screaming into a void

It is really hard to read through all that marketing nonsense. Not sure if I should cry or burst out in tears from laughing. In any case I can't stand all that false statements. Let's take this one for example: > Subscription d

Visual programming is really hard to debug. Just as people tend to give the advice to limit a procedure/method to one page, because you start to lose control. You just can keep up with so much. Where does this line goes in? You just do

Ligatures are pretty much the only subset of OpenType that is available in text editors, sadly. (And ligatures aren't even a good thing to have in an editor :D)
