+2  Q: 

Is there a place where I see the popular opinion of developers?

I really want to know popular opinion on controversial programming topics. Questions like:

  • Why do some people prefer vi over emacs (or vice versa)?
  • Is Java faster than C++?
  • Is Intel faster than AMD?

It seems SO discourages such conversions because of potential flamewars. So where do people go to discuss such matters? I'm especially interested in venues where people can "up vote" good comments and good questions.

A: 

Search Google for blog articles written on those topics.

Perhaps you could propose a Stack Exchange 2.0 site for potentially flamewar-worthy topics.
