This Isn't The Jetpack I Ordered!

This isn't the kind of science fiction we want to become reality. Parts of Canada are being infested by six foot tall, venomous weeds.

In other words, it's been invaded by triffids.

Deeply Entrenched In The Gutter

So, Apple unveiled a new tablet computer.

I see I'm not the only one who had this thought.

Missing Most Of The Point

Dear Code::Blocks,

What's the point in having a split view feature if you can't view different files in each pane?

In my experience, most of the utility of a split view comes from being able to see both files in a source/header pair at the same time, or comparing two different revisions of the same file.

The number of times I've wanted to look at two different parts of one file -- well, I've never wanted to do that.

Yes Please!

STOMP STOMP STOMP STOMP!
MechWarrior 5!
It's a new developer though, so hopefully they don't screw it up. (edit: one of the developers involved was co-founded by MechWarrior's creator. This bodes well.)
In the meantime, I've ordered the MechWarrior 4 compilation from Amazon. I need to catch up!
