One of the things that has surprised me in this is how much I like the JSON object syntax and it's u...
Or let me rephrase: What's an occupation that's involves very similar skills/abilities to programming, but that isn't IT-related at all?

I have an idea for a site that involves uploading files to the site. But what I'd like - and wondering if it's possible - is when a user clicks on "Browse", and selects the file, if it's possible for the site to automatically scan the site's database for similar files before they upload the file to the site. Kind of similar to the automa...

Hello, I have a database where users upload articles. I would like to make an algorithm where my web app will suggest similar texts according to the one the user reads. I saw some examples like Levenshtein distance. But those algorithms measures distance for strings and not for whole articles. Is there a way to extract most significant ...
Hi! I made a website that I submitted to google a few months ago. It comes up in results, but it could be much better. I've noticed that all the results in front of my site, there's a 'Similar' link just near the 'Cached' link, but it doesn't show up for my site. I know that that link gives related results, so I wonder if there's some...
