One reason is that many developers work with package managers / languages that are INCAPABLE of handling multiple versions of the same dependency. Without this you quickly get version deadlocks without semver. Another…
Also discourages its citizens from leaving the country.
And for that extra API goodness you could do it through node and expose your fancy wide-screenshot-app to the world : https://github.com/alexscheelmeyer/node-phantom

With fine print I meant answer to questions like "what do I get in a commercial license that I do not get in a personal license?" as it is written it could mean that with a personal license you are not allowed to earn…
This is exactly what I am looking for and I would probably buy it if I had some reassurance that it would actually work. Where is the docs? The sample code? Proof of concept apps that can be downloaded from app stores?…
Given the sometimes arbitrary nature of these rejections, it would seem that a natural strategy would be to keep trying (with changes to meet their expectations) - at some point you should get it approved. Is there some…
Because Tesla do not have the privilege of printing money like banks do. Banks do not directly loan out money from depositors, they keep that money and print(punch in numbers in a computer) 10x that amount for loaning…
"And it gives people a chance to point out what I am misunderstanding and educate me, if they really think I've gotten it wrong." Just a friendly note that this notion will cause you much grief. I used to think that it…
"I have chosen to have a policy of NOT paying for my phone". Suddenly it is all clear why you have gone through 16 phones.
He is simply saying that you should not bring a lollipop to a knife fight. Verbal confrontation and physical confrontation are very different. Trying to educate your opponent might work in a discussion on the merits…
You can compare things on many aspects. The Zynga/Madoff comparison was on trajectory - meteoric rise followed by sharp fall. Such a trajectory characterizes the scam or fad. My point is that Yammer is a fad, Madoff was…
I am one who thinks "Yay! Another accelerator to the Microsoft death-spiral" when reading this. I am not sure what data it is you want me to put in my data bank, as I do not buy your premise that getting bought by…
I would be more inclined to accept his message if it could not be boiled down to "If it is not working for you, you are not trying hard enough". Also, more marriages have probably failed due to the husband being a wimpy…
I think one would need to start by testing a different question first : "With everything else being equal, should your language choice be affected by the level of competence of the developers?". It seems discussions on…
I like how you apologize for stereotyping Java developers by clarifying that you really wanted to stereotype ALL kinds of developers.
I would say that knowledge is tied to separation due to the fact that in order for you to know a concept, you will need to know what separates it from everything else. Said in different words: Being able to see only one…
+1, this has nothing to do with binary search and everything to do with the fact that almost any application written in those languages will have bugs that do not show until numbers nearing INT_MAX are used. Another…
Both will work. The xor version is an old trick that many years ago was faster to execute. I do not think that is still the case, but there is still the difference that the XOR opcode is only one byte and the mov…
I think they are entirely right in shutting down this outward facing display of unfinished ideas/projects. I also think they could have done much better than just redirecting it to google.com. Instead of trying to…
Regarding the technology used. In this video: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JWujsO2V2IA you can see lots of artifacts and also talk of point cloud data, so it is clearly not raytracing but rather point data rendering.…
