Telegram is making ridiculous claims that have the potential to hurt their customers. They are lying and/or incompetent. They absolutely deserve to be made fun of.

I took some of Purgathofer's courses as part of my bachelor's and they were all incredibly good. Apart from being a very engaging lecturer, he did not believe in simple "all or nothing" final exams (as sadly so many othe

Generally this is of course good advice, but in Haskell it is common practice to use very short names (e.g. x, x', xs, ...) if the context is clear (which it usually is due to small scope, clear function names, type signature, etc.). This m

Actually I'm not, but reading the post again I see how it could come off that way... (edit: at least to an American...)

It is utterly fascinating to me how much discussion there is around this, here on this forum and in other places. In no other country in the world would this even be a debate... Of course you want to disarm everyone! That is the only sens

Did you get the idea for this from that one footnote to Bret Victor's recent essay? If so, that's some impressive turnaround time.

Try a few hours... (And a good thing too, since once again there will probably be no way for this non-American to actually buy the damn thing...)

> a TELEX (look it up if you don't know what that is) This kind of passive-aggressiveness only reinforces the grumpy-old-man stereotype and makes it really hard to take you seriously.

As far as I remember, Turing's original paper had a couple of errors, which is why he published a correction very soon afterwards.

Do you really need somebody to tell you that black-on-black text is maybe not such a good idea? Any why the hell is there a music video?

Isn't that precisely the point of the GPL? To create as much software as possible that cannot be run in DRM environments so that eventually it's the DRM environments that have to die? It's pretty much a pipe dream of course...

So as a last-ditch effort, they want us to use IE9 ironically?

If you're on a Mac, take at look at Latexian [1]. It has a live preview pane, which works by recompiling the tex file in the background (incl. bibtex). And despite the ugly icon, the UI is pretty nice (if you run it in fullscreen, put the p

I'm astounded how many people here are defending this... Leaving all other aspects aside, why should I trust a company that doesn't even have enough pride to spend 5 minutes whipping up their own fucking button images? And that they have ov

Partly off-topic, but it isn't illegal to mention or discuss or openly talk about national socialism in Germany and Austria. It is illegal to glorify the Third Reich or deny the Holocaust. The only people getting convicted for this stuff

I guess when you say "language" you actually mean "implementation"? Is it even possible to license a language specification itself? (And why would anyone pay for this?)

Of course the real problem isn't which back button behavior too choose, it's that there's a choice to be made at all. Both back button behaviors are perfectly valid and convincing arguments can be made for each, so the choice is pretty much
