Behold! The Clean World Wide Web will be known as Patriot One Web or pow.

Any app that wants my personal info to "connect me" from the get go creeps me out. Spotify already connects me with others. Although I find spotify UI a bit obtuse and their music suggestions moronic. I would be more interested on a mobile platform that connects me with independent artists (aka fresh music)...like Soundcloud combined with music guaranteed to get it right on suggestions not because some computer algorithm but because they have competent curators...Like Calmradio.

vim/vi is to linux embedded dev what a nail gun is to roofing or a Henckel knife is too cooking. Don't show at work without it.

Your comment reminded Principal Skinner in The Simpsons telling Bart to make a game of sharpening a stack of pencils: "Count the number of pencils you sharpened in one hour and try to beat your record"

I learned to ride on the crappiest banana seat schwimm with a dynamo powering a heavy head-light. I love it. I graduated to a Rampar BMX and then a Rebel top top components including KKT pedals and and Oakley 0.5 grips. Man years later I got a Fuji Aluminum Road entry level bike for my teenager son and he rode it for a few months and tossed it. Not interested. It was a great entry level bike. I believe on the evolution of the rider, from a Huffy Wal-Mart to a Bianchi or Giant.

oh yeah, the "pizza" party. 50+ developer here. As I age, pizza and games feel more like going to Chuckee Cheese (a US pizza chain for children's birthday parties). I rather watch a soccer match at the nearest bar or play freesbee in the parking lot.

In 2008 I was asked in one company to add ipv6 from a network stack because it was going ot be a government mandate to support ipv6. That came and went. In 2015 I was asked to add VLAN support to another network stack https://tools.ietf.org/rfc/rfc5517.txt to allow duplicate ipv4 address to co-exist in the same network. Ipv4 is not going anywhere, it doesn't have to. IpV6 is an effective way to segment your network at the hardware level.

The Code is the Design and the design uncovers good or bad written code. GoF design patterns were modeled after well written code. Anti-patterns (the swiss army knife is my favorite) are bad written code.

I agree wholeheartedly. The best software documentation is the an actually well written software module + test that explains its functionality.
