A remark like is is modded interesting? Really?

I've been a /. user since 1996 and I'm seriously considering leaving this site. The user-interface is broken and unintelligible and the comments seem to be heading towards brain-dead.

Documentation is a waste of time. You're better off writing your code cleanly so that somebody else can decipher it easily.

I'm waiting for Google to port Go to Android.

Excellent rant! You sir have articulated exactly why I think that Linux on the desktop will never succeed. This deserves to be posted on Reddit, Hacker News, etc...

How come I've never heard of it till now? I don't live under a rock. I read tech sites daily and listen to poscasts. How did this slip under my radar?

Just thought I'd mention it. "Aging" is not a word in the English dictionary.

This line says it all:

"My granddaughters don't even know what Microsoft does."

Aha so it was you who wrote all those self-replicating Outlook viruses. Thanks a lot dude.

i19[ESC][CTRL-A] Doesn't work in Windows by default ...

Here's what TTimo has to say about it:

The line you're looking for is the last one:

"It is likely i will be involved with idTech 5 in the near future, I'll be damned if we don't find the time to get Linux builds done."

This post is from 2009 but I think it was posted after id was sold to BethSoft. Let's hope he succeeds in convincing his bosses.

You mean "get ready Github ..."

Something tells me that the only reason this article exists is because of the intended pun in the title.

"I'm a soon-to-be Master's graduate from a public university majoring in carpentry â" with all that carpentry entails. Of course, it's come time to start job hunting, and while there are a few actual carpentry-type jobs around, I've noticed that a few carpentry jobs would be substantially more convenient for me personally. But this leads me to the question (assuming they would hire me, of course) â" would having carpentry experience hurt my job prospects down the road? Would future employers see that and be less likely to hire me â" or pigeon-hole me into carpentry?"

What Windows 8 is, is Microsoft ticking the boxes:

• Integrated search in UI: Check
• Touch interface: Check
• HTML5 + JavaScript: Check
• Integrated Cloud Services: Check

When I watched the keynote I had a sense of déjà vu because basically Windows 8 is exactly what Ubuntu is supposed to be.
