It is in the same tradition of Charlie Hebdo, Titanic, Ricky Gervais, Louis C.K. and other crass comedians. Some might find this humor tasteless and insulting, but in my opinion this is covered by freedom of speech.

Planned by whom? To what end? Do you have any information to substantiate this claim?

Watching Zero Dark Thirty, I immediately thought that this was an attempt to write history. With the flair of historical accuracy and lots of pathos.

While this may be abused by spammers, it's also a tool for legitimate users who want to transition to MailChimp with their existing subscribers.

I understand that. But in my understanding a version number also reflects where a project stands in respect to features planned vs features implemented. Jumping from 0.x to 4.x is plain weird in this regard.

If that is true: That's just an odd jump, seeing that Node's current version is 0.12.7

Atom and the Go Plus Package do exactly that. Very convenient!

I read your posts and I don't know if I just don't understand you or if you are trolling. I believe what the parent post refers to is that Ruby - being a dynamic language - is way more flexible with types and data structures. On t

When talking about Rails, you can't take Ruby out of the equation. To me, the joy of coding Ruby is unmatched by any other language. And it does have a very mature ecosystem. Ruby and Go are both awesome, I could write you a love lette

The problem with nuclear waste is that you need a 0% failure rate or you might detonate a dirty bomb in the atmosphere. It doesn't matter how often it worked if it fails once. Also it's a great target for sabotage for radicals.

I think it's simple as in: You don't need a lab to reproduce the results.

One thing though: Apple always states their one year warranty (and tries to push Apple Care). Legislation in your country might disagree and Apple has to adhere to it. In Europe there are vast differences, ranging from 2 to 6 (!) years. I&#

That's not what I was referring to. Yes, technically videos are superior, no doubt. The nice thing about GIFs is though that they are treated like images by the browser and the OS. That makes them easier to handle by non-technical user

While GIF is surely inferior to short looped videos, it's still ahead in terms of usability/portability: Drag & drop the file to the desktop and re-upload elsewhere (or embed in your own website). AFAIK this experience is unma

You're talking about OSS - you didn't buy it. OSS does not entitle you to anything. Tenderlove and the Rubygems maintainers spend their time so you don't have to. If it doesn't fit your needs - okay. But don't act a

Wow, that is well hidden. Also: I don't get "Live" form. Wouldn't a "hey you wrote Ruby, but here is your .jar" form make more sense?

I'm not sure if this is applicable to French/European law. Nevertheless: If somebody doesn't want you to scrape, don't do it.

I have been a customer of Hetzner for several years now. Everything is fine and cheap if you have no problems, but their support is the worst.

I don't think the Amazon TOS let you use their API on mobile devices. That's why we don't have Delicious Library on our mobile devices.
