The bag will rip and tear over time because the contents are shifting independently of each other. This will not happen (as quickly) with a non-Newtonian liquid. Not to mention, dirt and gravel roads aren't big bags. The materials are simpl

The one thing that really bothers me about these "PHP sucks" articles is that the author implies that it's inevitable that anything written in PHP will be complete junk. Yes, it has flaws, but PHP is associated with spaghetti code 100% of t

Check out the HUD in the second picture. It reads 77 kmh but the needle is reading about 68khm. I wish they'd use actual pictures. These poor Photoshops don't do any justice.

>How are lawyers "taking advantage of it"? I'll search for the link, but I recall reading an article where a group of lawyers contacted companies who they believe had their patents infringed upon and offered their services to them.

That's a conclusion you jumped to. The product may not be popular simply because of the colors or pricing, neither of which have anything to do with the purpose of the product.

Haters gonna hate, but I enjoy PHP. For those who say PHP is sloppy and lacks substance, that's because you write it that way. A lot of the complaints that people have are long gone: - lack of namespace: they exist -goto lines: no one force
