True | LaurieCheers | null | Keltranis' strategy there seems odd to me. When reddit was frequented mostly by tech savvy individuals, there was no rule about posting links that were "specifically about programming" and "had code in the link". They just posted any kind of link they found that, as tech savvy individuals, they found interesting. It was great.
Even after reddit's front page was taken over by a different crowd, the community of early adopters stuck around on proggit for a long time, submitting whatever interesting links they found. It was still pretty good.
In the last few months, however, I've checked the front page of /r/programming almost every day, and rarely find anything I want to read. It's starting to feel so dry. It's like hacker news.
Now, I don't know if I can really speak for what the community as a whole wants, but my experience seems to roughly match yours - there's a community of programmers who want to read interesting stuff regardless of whether it's specifically about programming, and a bunch of people who complain when things aren't properly categorized.
Maybe both communities would be satisfied if /r/programming was renamed to /r/programmers - e.g. by using a redirect?

True | reddiric | null | > When you add a file, it is best to add the file through Visual Studio's contextual menus in your solution explorer. TFS will recognize that you are adding a file and track that file for you. This is great until you need to start adding some files outside of Visual Studio. In my experience, this is usually peripheral code like batch automation scripts, build tools, XML configuration files, etc. Sometimes you use Notepad++ because its more convenient--but then you get yourself into trouble because you try to check in but TFS does not recognize the new file or that the file is edited. In that case, you need to navigate to the Source Control Explorer, add or check out the file using its contextual menus.

True | a_redditor | null | Maybe I've been lurking /r/TheoryOfReddit for too long, but I believe the trend you're seeing may simply be related to a global trend of the quality of reddit decreasing, it's just that the mods here do a lot more to filter out the crap.
There is a pretty big consensus among theorists (yes, there are reddit theorists) that the onslaught of image posts in the past year or two has been detrimental to the quality of the site. At this moment, the front page of /r/funny has exactly 1 post that isn't an imgur image, and it's actually a flickr image. On /r/programming, imgur posts are downvoted heavily, and often removed by us mods. Shit, even image posts that aren't memes or rage comics are downvoted heavily. Check out [this guy with Bjarne Stroustrup](http://www.reddit.com/r/programming/comments/k5e6k/look_at_who_my_friend_ran_into_today/).
So there isn't a whole lot left. I think it's partially because a lot of the people who used to post good, insightful articles have either left the site as a result of its new direction. The rest of the big subreddits are being run by karmawhores and trolls these days, but /r/programming doesn't allow self posts, so it's hard to troll, and /r/programming has all but banned imgur.com, so it's hard to be a karmawhore.
I know it's a cynical point of view, but I can't help but think that it isn't at least *partially* true. | null | 0 | 1315892824 | True | 0 | c2jhrea | t3_kdey1 | null | t1_c2jhrea | t1_c2jhjho | null | 1427593500 | 6 | t5_2fwo | null | null | null |

True | Slime0 | null | Those don't seem like fundamental problems to me. They all seem like problems that can be fixed by deprecating old features and adding new features where necessary. Sure, adding new features to JavaScript is a "significant challenge," but making a *new language* is a *bigger* challenge.
This looks to me like a basic case of programmers believing it is better to throw out what they have and start over, when in reality they are disregarding the huge amount of time and effort that went into making the existing system support all of the things it needs to support.

True | HastyToweling | null | That's actually a pretty good example. Though even there, I still think that 1-based is cognitively cleaner (option 1 above).

True | Slime0 | null | I'm way late here, but the 2D array thing is just an example. This sort of thing pops up all over the place when you start writing real programs. For instance, consider if you had a set of data you wanted to easily display in a looping manner (perhaps a sound represented by an array of samples, or an animation represented as an array of frames, or terrain represented as a height map, etc). If you have an index into the array that increases over time, you can get the sample for the current time with index % size, and you can get the number of times you have looped with index / size. Having to use a function call for such a simple thing is frustrating when you've used a language that makes it easy for you like this. | null | 0 | 1315894440 | False | 0 | c2jhwk7 | t3_kbdgw | null | t1_c2jhwk7 | t1_c2j18n5 | null | 1427593626 | 1 | t5_2fwo | null | null | null |

True | meteorMatador | null | Before I get into that, lemme say up front that Python really is a **severe improvement** over much of the competition. For example, I'd choose it in a heartbeat if the only other options were PHP and Java, unless very specific deployment or performance profiles forced me to use the JVM. But this isn't really because Python is good; I think it's merely above average, even giving equal weight to language and ecosystem. The fact is that the viable alternatives are just that bad.
There are so many tiny little things that bother me (and will never ever be fixed, quoth BDFL) that I can't decide where to start. So let's just talk about the big and complicated one that bothers a lot of other people too, ie. performance. That's not just an implementation issue. It's a language design issue. Making Python fast is **a fucking nightmare.** The fact that Unladen Swallow had only the barest flicker of life before its devs pitched it out the window and said "fuck this, we're going to space" should give everyone a subtle hint about that.
It has all the same things going against it as Javascript does, and worse. From what I've learned, the biggest (but not only) hurdle is what's popularly known as monkey patching, where you swap out code at runtime to change behavior elsewhere in the program. It would be nice to throw that away but almost all Python code in the wild uses it somehow and it's the preferred or only way to do a bunch of important stuff. Writing a compiler that optimizes that is like changing a tire by juggling the car and the lug nuts in very precise patterns, in the dark, during a hurricane. Browser vendors do it for Javascript because there are far fewer corner cases and the payoff is obvious, immediate, and huge. Having Python in the browser would mean redoing all that work for a subtly different and far more complicated set of semantics. Nobody is looking forward to that.
The guys who make PyPy and such actually found a way to be really clever about it: They optimize Python by optimizing something other than Python. Rather, they make languages that are just like Python, except that X never happens, Y only happens once per program, and Z can happen as often as you want, but only in a constructor. Their semantic analyzer goes over your program, and if it passes all these tests it gets compiled and optimized to go really fast. If part of your code breaks any of those rules, though, then it's normal Python and it has to be interpreted, and then you're lucky to get a 2x speedup over the default implementation. Oh, and by the way, these techniques are mutually exclusive with the extensions written in C that all the major libraries rely on. Whoops!
The long and short of it is that even though Python is a delicious buffet, after eating it you are forced to sleep on a hot bed of coals, and I can't blame the Google folks or anyone else for not liking the coals. | null | 0 | 1315896765 | True | 0 | c2ji3bi | t3_kcwx2 | null | t1_c2ji3bi | t1_c2jh25j | null | 1427593714 | 5 | t5_2fwo | null | null | null |

You used to be able to, but with the latest update of TFS PowerTools, the Windows Explorer integration is quite badly broken, most notably they removed the Add New Folder and Add New Item Explorer menus.

Command line? Git? I *never* use the command line for git (or svn). Instead I use the excellent Tortoise or Dolphin integration, depending on the desktop I am running.
