What would be really interesting is if they implemented a system like the old ESP game. For those unfamiliar, it was a collaborative game with strangers over the internet. You and your stranger partner are both shown the same digital image,

If a page is particularly useful, I usually save the html of it, using Firefox's save as web page (complete), or similar. Then I have my own folder hierarchy on disk where I keep them organized. This way I can access the information ev

I am not sure if that is relevant that the gifts are from an automated service. Surely the husband was thoughtful in choosing and signing up for the gift service in the first place?

The book sounds interesting, but unfortunately it won't be published and available for purchase until March 4th. I don't understand the point of reviews and marketing like this when you can't actually buy the book. I suppose

Well one problem could be that C++ does not have a context free grammar, and in fact its grammar is notoriously difficult to parse, so perhaps it's just as easy to write it by hand as it is to bend an existing parser generator to fit C

It sounds pretty cool. Is the unminified js available? I am also curious as to the process of becoming an "official chrome experiment" as mentioned on the authors page.

Would it be legal to send a photo of a famous piece of art from hundreds of years ago to one of these services. On one hand the painting would be in public domain. But I wonder if some anti-forging laws would be an issue?

"There's no massive standard library to do arr.sort() for you and you have to really think about how to implement some basic processes that you took for granted" Not massive by any means, but the C standard library does inclu

How do you play? I tried to click on the "Help" button, but it didn't work, so I have no idea what to do.

Just wondering about how you are doing or going to do your sandboxing for languages like c, c++, etc. If you are running arbitrary code from the user on the server, it could be risky I would imagine, so I am wondering what steps you take to

This looks a little dangerous to me, because it makes the pedestrian take their mind off the road. Just last week, a car accidentally drove up on the side walk part of the crosswalk and would have hit me had I not been paying attention and

It seems I have accidentally given the article a kudos point for this post, although I didn't intend to. It would be nice if svbtle had more indication about that leaving your cursor over the kudos button has this effect, unlike most n

What level would you say the idioms in the book are at? I have already been programming in python for a little while, and I wouldn't want to pay for something which I already know. It would be nice if there were more sample idioms on t

Unrelated comment, but why is it becoming a design trend now to hide the scrollbars on websites? Luckily I accidentally hit the space bar, so I saw there was more content there, but without that I would have had no idea there was more infor

In all honesty, I starting reading the article because I was lured in by the title (even though it's a bit link baity). Why are these people not normal, and why am I one of them? Then I started reading, realized it was about developers

One idea might be to spell check your writing using a modified English (simple) dictionary. This modified dictionary would only contain the most common and simplest english word, allowing you to easily prune out words that would reveal your

Just to clarify a bit, C++ and Objective were not written in the C pre-processor, but rather implemented as their own pre-processor program, analogous to Qt's moc.
