- I've just discovered why radio buttons are called that way. Mind blown! I never connected the two things together.
- @SamuelePanzeri The current g+ design is newer that the gmail one. Hopefully it's coming back.
- .@voxelgrid Yeah I know. Looks like this extension does the job. http://t.co/j2jWNPrP
- Gmail must be the only site in the whole internet where clicking the logo doesn't bring you to the main page. Keep on improving Google!
- @Donzanoid Weird I drink my tea without sugar, but I cannot get to appreciate coffee totally without sugar, I put half tea spoon in.
- @Donzanoid Ouch! How much coffee do you want in your sugar?

- @aras_p Try it fullscreen then accidentally double click on a build error instead of single clicking! I love that "feature".
- I had somehow missed that @mike_acton released the Insomniac DDL Parser. http://t.co/yDZ4s3xb Thanks! :)

- EA Sports games won't have manuals anymore. Companies often say it is done for going 'green', while cynics say its for cutting costs. What are your thoughts on manuals being phased out?It’s obviously to cut costs. If it costed them _more_ instead than less they (and any other company for the matter) wouldn’t have done it yet. There are lots of things to worry about in the game industry, but this is not very high on my list.Asked by Ally Mar 22, 11
- What was the first game you ever played OR what game made you check out the gaming scene? (Or both whatever.)The first game I remember playing was Alley Cat, and I used to play it on a 8088 computer with my dad and my sister. I think I was around 4. But the game that made me want to become a game developer was Eye of the Beholder. I remember one time me and my dad started playing it around 4pm, next thing you know it was midnight and we didn’t even had dinner. That is what I wanted to create, something so engaging that nothing else would matter.Asked by Ally Feb 12, 11
- What is the best programming language?I don’t believe such a programming language exists. There is no overall best programming language. More so, even reducing the scope of the question, it would still be impossible to choose the “best” one for game programming, web programming etc… The language that I mainly use is C++, but the more I use the more I’m leaning towards a C+ version of it (mostly C plus namespaces, and a few other small C++ features). As you’ve probably heard textbook OO C++ is surely not the best programming language.Asked by Formspring Feb 05, 11
