Well, then props to him for knowing how to keep his private feelings and thoughts out of the workplace.

I have such mixed feelings about this being on HN. Yes, I think we should read it and learn from it. I absolutely agree with the author. It's one of those things I wish everyone knew but for some reason there are still people who don't, so

Looks like TypeScript (Microsoft's typed layer on top of JavaScript) is also using this concept of interfaces as well. Classes implicitly implement interfaces. http://www.typescriptlang.org/Playground/#ex5

While I'm sure using clojure for the entire stack simplifies things for pros like you. It is not an adequate replacement for newbies. You still need to know: Clojure (and the lisp way of things), Java, Javascript, HTML, CSS, and SQL to un

As typical of reddit: sounds clever, but ultimately shallow. And obviously written by nerdy boys. The real world is far more complicated. I'm sure most girls would agree that less attractive gents can be considered "so sweet" and handsome

I don't have the science but I have been standing at my desk for over a year now. My advice is: keep it loose, keep moving around, take lots of breaks. If you were standing, sit for a bit. If you were sitting, walk for a bit. Don't stay

All day on a treadmill is going to be bad on your knees, hips and heels. If you running/jogging make sure you really pay attention to your form if you are going for that long (which is going to conflict with your concentration). If you ar

C# now has `async` and `await`, not the same thing, but similar. Also I'm sure there's about a dozen C++ libraries that will do it.

Apparent Facts: - AF OSI (the Air Force's own little internal FBI-like agency) investigates military members contacting Wikileaks / Julian Assange - AF OSI is alleging that some service-members may be punished under UCMJ 104-D Communicating

I like your implementation a lot better. It's faster, cleaner, and I (somewhat irrationally) feel better about being able to look across 5 missing faces for a match instead of just one.

Your point (which I agree with) would have been better made if you left it at the first paragraph. It quickly turned into an emotional rant.

Is Twitter's policy that the users do own their tweets? I never heard that claim before. I would have assumed not.

... it cannot replace C/C++ for lots of the intended use cases Does Go need to replace C/C++ in all use cases to be a "worthwhile" language? If not, then is there some required percentage of use cases that Go must be better at than

by thebigshane 14y ago
The lack of generics makes Go unsuitable to write typesafe, reusable data structures for use in many popular algorithms. That's a fact. That is not a factual statement. It is subjective and it is disputable.

If that is the best attack on my idea, then I'd say that's pretty good! A spammer would have to target the site specifically (for tailor-made script) and parse an animated gif into individual images, then send every image into Tin Eye (whi

I would be incredibly interested in a version of Acme that would not require X windows. Hell, I'd even pay for it. (I currently run emacs on arch linux with no x)

I think the Evoluent mouse gets recommended by Acme users. http://www.evoluent.com/ http://www.amazon.com/Evoluent-Vertical-Mouse-Right-Handed/d... http://russ.cox.usesthis.com -- `rsc`, do you still use this setup?

by thebigshane 14y ago
(I have used both Acme and Emacs but only a little bit each) I can believe that most of the time it is easier to switch to the mouse to move the cursor where you want if it is no where near your current position. But what about just movi

I have a feeling this is the case as well. Can you cite any references?

Has the Kindle become the new Kleenex and Google? Are the alternatives so insignificant that they aren't worth mentioning? I'm not talking about the Nook, I'm talking about a $50 Alturek e-reader that you can read text files and PDFs on.

What does Facebook's person-to-person communication offer beyond email and IM? (Honest question) No doubt it indeed has replaced email and IM for some people, but I would think it is just because "well, everyone else is on facebook so I'

I admit that I have only thought about this for a minute or two but I am thinking of something a little more complex than a hard coded image. More like: Hit submit when a picture of a dog is shown in the slideshow, if its a cat, your commen

Thanks. I've seen custom contextmenus generated on pages[0] that override the built-in context menu but for some reason I've yet to come across a page[1] that adds to the existing context menu until today. [0] replacing example: http://dev
