This almost sounds like pair programming but one doing reviews and other writing the code and fixes.

This looks pretty awesome and will just get better as more languages get supported. But, it comments on commits, not on the diff in the PR. I think commeting on the diff looks nicer (you see code snippet with the comment) and in my opinion it's also easyer to find all the comments that way. Instead of clicking the commit hash on the commen each time.

These were nice, but you had to configure each one yourself. I had one for google and youtube, but that was it. With DDG, the bangs come quite nicely preconfigured.

And it works better than lynx.

Could be a typo, or a freudian slip.

Yes, that was a joke. We make fun of UK for driving on the wrong side too sometimes.

It is slightly slover, but one huge benifit is, that you get -P or --partial, which often ends up saving me lots of time.

I have a problem with "cloud storage." Most of those are simple file sync services and they have nothing to do with "the cloud".

OwnCloud for example, is just a php app used for syncing files with different clients. It is not distributed, the data is not replicated, there is no High Aveilabilty(HA) setup. Seafile could has HA if you pay.

The only true cloud storage system there is Swift. And CEPH is missing, which is a big player in cloud storage.

I may be wrong here, but cloud should be HA, scailable and distributed.

"Giving views such a high priority is just wrong." No, it's not! If I'm trynig to teach someone with wery little programming experience, he'll want to see results. Starting out with something he'll see is what helps to keep him engaged.

There is a reason most tutorials start with: this is how you show something, and if you want to sawe data here's how to make ane use a database. Sure doing it the other way around seems natural to you and other web developers, but it's a bad way to introduce a framework to a complete newbie.

I love Gnome Shell, and I'm happy to see the way things are progressing with Wayland. I have tried it on my Arch machine, but had to revert because of some bugs, but it'll get there soon.

I am confused about how the IntelliJ IDEA with android plugins competes with Android Studio. I thought that Android Studio is suppose to replace IntellyJ for android development.

You should look up some links in the article (proposed solution https://lkml.org/lkml/2013/11/24/133)

"Currently, the VM aims for a 1:1 ratio between the lists, which is the "perfect" trade-off between the ability to protect frequently used pages and the ability to detect frequently used pages. This means that working set changes bigger than half of cache memory go undetected and thrash indefinitely, whereas working sets bigger than half of cache memory are unprotected against used-once streams that don't even need caching."

When I try to see if a person knows how to "think", I start with fizzbuzz and then ask them to do it again without if or case statements. The first time a person is asked something like that you see if they're a thinker or if they just go "that can't be done." That question does a good job dividing people into a group that in 5 years time will ether have 5 years of experience or 1 year of experience repeated 5 times.
