CmonDev··on Why isn't 'American' a Language?

Well, if every colony will have it's own language - how many will you have for no good reason?

CmonDev··on Ask HN: What do you do when you are lethargic?

"Sometimes" not always.

Lifting doesn't burn the muscle mass though.

CmonDev··on Firefox makes click-to-activate Flash the default

The final act of HTML5 delusion - it becomes "ready" because we say it's "ready". It's just someone forgot to ask Flash (game) developers' opinion. Not that it matters, right?

CmonDev··on Plan Would Let Transgender People Serve Openly in Military

"Positive comment" - one that aligns with your opinion? Why not adjust your mental model to reality? Where would common americans express their true opinion if not anonymously in the internet? Sometimes even a slight disagreement with the official agenda might lead to problems with career nowadays.

CmonDev··on Immutable annotations for Java

...or just waiting for C# 7.

CmonDev··on Ask HN: Is it possible to create a Saas for passive income while working a job?

Wait, is HN ~13 years old??

CmonDev··on The Day My Daughter Discovered I’m White

"Racism isn’t born, folks, it’s taught."

Not necessarily, a person can jump to wrong conclusions on his/her own, e.g. by watching a number of clips like this one: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=i_kF4zLNKio

CmonDev··on Fuse – Write cross platform native apps using C# and JavaScript

Yes, at least he could reverse the order of words in the subj. The link on the website leads to the API docs - there is no language description. I bet "high-speed" actually means "we removed things we think you don't need". Feels like a Unity3d-inspired afterthought.

It does not matter though, the world is moving away from JS. Better support the full C#.

That's not the worst case, how about this:

https://www.terraform.io

No relation to making planets habitable whatsoever.

CmonDev··on Ask HN: I've constantly changed companies. Would I be considered unreliable?

Do you ever hire contractors for odd 6-month jobs?

CmonDev··on Ask HN: I'm cloning my own app into 10x new apps. Is it allowed on Google Play?

And are you worried about ethics?

CmonDev··on The age of unreason

They just need a powerful lobby - one day depression/anxiety/schizophrenia will be declassified as disorders - just like it happened to homosexuality.

CmonDev··on Don't use || to set default values in JavaScript

Doesn't it also check for null not just undefined? Isn't that the whole point?

CmonDev··on Computer program fixes old code faster than expert engineers

Title correction: "Computer program optimizes the speed of image filters".

CmonDev··on Superpowers – The extensible, collaborative HTML5 2D+3D game maker

Another one :). JS and HTML? No, thanks.

CmonDev··on Things I've learned about writing software after 12 years

Don't forget to thank nazis, who taught you how to build rockets and soviets who showed you that space travel is possible.

CmonDev··on Web Development as a career – the realities

TL;DR: glorified web developer only likes his kin.

CmonDev··on Web Development as a career – the realities

NodeJS? That thing is already dead. You must have a year of IO.js experience.

CmonDev··on German court orders measles sceptic to pay 100,000 euros

I guess the dream of a scientocratic society proactively punishing ignorance won't materialise. Denying evolution? 10 lashes!

CmonDev··on A Unity Dev's Thoughts on the New Graphics APIs

Which one?

1) Unity3d

2) http://unity-linux.org/

3) https://unity.codeplex.com/

CmonDev··on Students are fleeing US law schools and pouring into engineering

"open-source contributions" - which means a person is good in contributing not creating things. Ask about their private repos instead.

CmonDev··on Students are fleeing US law schools and pouring into engineering

Being a very successful lawyer is probably comparable to being a very successful developer. Unless you wanted to be "a lawyer"?

CmonDev··on I have moved to naming global singletons with a The* prefix

Better naming pattern: SingletonAntipattern*.

CmonDev··on A Strong Mode for JavaScript

Yes, I see so many JS-only front-end job posts these days - nobody wants to touch that crap even with a stick: "let's hire a guy who will only do JS, close him in a separate room, and forget about this scripty language like the horror dream it is".

CmonDev··on New-less JavaScript (2013)

It's not like pizza, it's like dirt. You can shape it many ways but it tends to fall apart.

CmonDev··on What happens when you type Google.com into your browser's address box

You start using a non-open source search algorithm?

CmonDev··on When Nerds Collide (2014)

That's not even art. HN appreciates art.
