People will never stop complaining about look and feel. It's such a crap, it doesn't matter. How much clothes do you own? Computers are tools to do work and consume information, they don't exist for you to make a statement ab

Thanks mate! This is amazing, I'm going to use this to turn people into Clojurists.

It's all about resource efficiency. If you do that (bundle), you're not resource efficient (memory), but the resulting solution is easy to use (no dealing with dependency conflicts where A depends on X-v1 and B on X-v2, and you ne

I was studying Racket lately, and it sounds very familiar now. DSLs, or dialects as Racket calls them, is surely way to go and improve productivity, it should however, always be possible to descent down, or escape from that DSL, where neede

What about having every command run in ducker container as a service? Like, say, `ls` would be a client to a `ls-server` ducker container (based on Ubuntu)? I think there are many benefits to it.

No function keys? C'mon, the keyboard 'looks' good, but lacks the keys you need for work.

The IRC protocol might not be pretty, but what protocol is? HTTP? AMQP? XMPP? Protocols are not meant to be pretty, just efficient and robust enough to support the desired feature set. It's a shame that none of Slack, Hipchat, now Matt

Agreed, as a former merb user, I really miss it. The merger was turning point for me, it turned me away from Ruby, mostly because of the community.

This is brilliant. Here a full-fledged solution: the same way every OS supports users, it should support identities attached to the user account (~/.ssh). Upon OS installation / user creation, it would prompt the user to either ge

Like classes matter. JS doesn't even have them, not in ES6, not in ES7. It's all just sugar for prototypal inheritance, which has nothing to do with OOP. I don't see any future for OOP in JS land. They'd be better off in

Really great work by Evan. The problems with SC UI he outlines are real, the solutions are mostly of high quality. Hopefully someone @ SC will notice, but given how hard it is to work with graphic/UI designers, I wouldn't be surpr

They won't use a standard protocol even if it makes lots of sense for the users. For them, they fear being commoditized as a result of using a standard. Same reason why Hangouts will stop being available through XMPP anytime soon. It&#

Eg: By referencing an encoder function using the standard on* attribute. Could be called onbeforesubmit=encodeMsgpack. This function would take a JS object, generated according to the W3C's JSON form spec, and return a pair of [string,

Wow, W3C at it's best again. Non-modular, non-negotiable, JSON it is, take it or leave it. Well fuck you W3C. Base64 encoded files? Seriously? What if my app workes better with msgpack encoded forms? Or with XML encoded? So you're

Great, the site kept my CPU cores (and cooling fans) very busy, I accidentally clicked on the download link, which brought me 2.5 MB zip file. This thing ain't light. But gosh! 10k stars on github? are you people crazy?

Note the wording here: agile, adapt. So you develop a copy of a "western" product/service, then block the original from the west and "market locally". Great, genius. To me this is the totalitarian equivalent of impo

Makes me wonder why the C compiler (gcc?) isn't clever enough here and is not inlining all that non-sense. At least I would expect SufficientlySmartCompiler™ to do so. Doing the inline by hand just proves how dark is the age we're

Could you kindly explain me then what's the point of registering a trademark? Is it something you can then wave with in front of jury? Do you really need $80k for that? Do you need $80k to print out your accepted trademark application,

by skratlo 12y ago
I don't get it either. If GNOME (the desktop environment and the foundation) have a trademark on GNOME, why do they need $80k to defend it? Shouldn't the trademark office then simply reject any further application for GNOME name r
