What's up with capitalizing every first letter ? I thought "Whatsapp Tonight" is some new service Whatsapp is providing that I didn't know of.

Re:How to Become a Great JavaScript Developer on Wednesday June 17, 2015 @11:30AM (#9732485)
I've never learned JS completely, just dangerous half knowledge from stackoverflow answers or blogs.

Should I jump into ES6 directly or learn ES5 and learn ES6 when it is implemented across all browsers ?

That is why you have sitemaps, for new websites with no sitemaps we could start with a default frequency, say, once a day. If it changes more often than that you can increase it to multiple times a day and so on. We can also look for the type of website to determine a starting frequency — for example an e-commerce websites ought to be crawled more frequently because new products, reviews, ratings could be added every few minutes whereas a personal blog may stay the same for weeks altogether.
Re:Emperor Norton on Monday June 08, 2015 @06:43AM (#9678182)
"n 1867, a policeman named Armand Barbier arrested Norton to commit him to involuntary treatment for a mental disorder.[3] The Emperor's arrest outraged the citizens and sparked scathing editorials in the newspapers. Police Chief Patrick Crowley ordered Norton released and issued a formal apology on behalf of the police force.[10] Crowley wrote "that he had shed no blood; robbed no one; and despoiled no country; which is more than can be said of his fellows in that line."[18] Norton magnanimously granted what he considered an Imperial Pardon to the errant policeman. All police officers of San Francisco thereafter saluted Norton as he passed in the street"

:D

Same applies to all eastern European countries, Japan and China. People start prepping when they're still in middle school. Most of the winning team members are former IOI gold medalists.

Re:Programmer Passion Considered Harmful on Monday March 16, 2015 @11:38AM (#9212015)
Ahh, I get it now.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Considered_harmful

Considered harmful is a phrase used in the titles of at least 65 critical essays in computer science and related disciplines. It was popularized by Edsger Dijkstra's letter Go To Statement Considered Harmful.

Re:Youtube-dl on Sunday November 23, 2014 @04:41AM (#8648284)
I've used this one for so many things and it's awesome.

I've downloaded a whole youtube channel, downloaded videos as mp3's and what not.

I have couple of aliases set in my .zshrc too :)

mp3dl() { youtube-dl --extract-audio --audio-format mp3 $1 }

root@haseebr7 ~ mp3dl <youtube_video_url>

and bam i have the mp3 download. I no longer have to visit shitty ad infested websites to do these kind of things.

WOW, this is scary. I'm from India and thinking of getting my MS in CS next year. I hope i don't end up like this.
