Watching the videos gave me a feeling that if we let them evolve in peace, they'll be the next intelligent creatures on the planet in some 100k years.

It is already in rust. Which is a major problem for anyone trying to bootstrap rust for packages.

Arrogant ignorance is a giveaway of a modern developer. There is shared content there. If you lack it doesn't mean everyone else is. My music preferences are saved as bookmarks in my browser (among other places). I want to listen to th

This was unnerving to read (I gave up)with all the animated gifs in the text. Whoever thought it's a good idea to interlace text with moving pictures was an evil human being.

It's a very shaky premise. Using that same logic I can derive: "If you want to meet with me, it's your responsibility to set up your mailbox filters" In fact if one cares about the said mailbox, there would never be any

Let me guess, you're from the US and user surveillance is beneficial to your business so naturally everyone with non-capitalist (read not $$$-centric) ideology is plain wrong. EU startups don't have to "catch up" or even

I see these PalmOS releases pop and every time I check whether my favourite PalmOS game is in them and it never is. Mars Needs Cows was an amazing puzzle game. It's a shame it was never remade.
