I read that book when I was an English-monolingual kid, living in Portugal, and /consequentemente/ that story really stuck in my head when I was struggling for Portuguese words:…
> I now pay more per month for music than I did at any other time in my life Me too, but I don't feel that that's a win for the music industry, I see that as a win for me. I didn't engage with a business model that…
> It's a funny trend in recent years It's funny what you consider "recent": http://catb.org/jargon/html/K/kill-file.html
Even presuming we accept "trademark erosion" as a thing, it's still irrelevant here: the author wasn't using a trademark to describe a generic good (i.e., they didn't mean "a 'large-format' movie theatre with surround…
Not really, debatable, barely: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Harvard_Library :)
I came here to say "Capsela", too. I loved those so much! (Although it's hard to tell if they still exist; the sets I could find on Amazon were so expensive, I have to assume they're the toy equivalent of…
I'm glad someone found this; I was really confused because I recognised the phrasing, and thought "I've read this story... but it was about wedding guests...?"
I'm looking forward to getting home and trying this out; this looks like the exact kind of tool I've always wanted! :)
Yeah, I can't tell you how much pleasure all those demos have given me over the years, so the opportunity to thank someone directly is really satisfying to me. Thanks again. :) I recognise your/those names from other…
Oh my god! You're sagacity of threestate?! I'm swooning! "melrose space" is my all-time favourite demo! To this day, I still watch it regularly, I love it so much. (As well as the other 3s ones -- like enjoying a…
Comments on Reddit suggest this is also a fully-mechanical Lego Turing Machine (including electric motor), but I haven't watched the full video to make sure there's no Mindstorms CPU kit:…
I got them from here: http://pyrtsa.posterous.com/aligning-your-git-logs (which also has the list-not-graph versions). [Which is what I was going to comment, but you beat me to it.]
The follow-up presentation here is just as good, in my opinion: http://www.dabeaz.com/coroutines/Coroutines.pdf
Not the full feature set, unfortunately. Cygwin can't support passing file descriptors via Unix sockets, and so sadly, ControlMaster doesn't work there. https://bugzilla.mindrot.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1278…
My apologies; I must have missed the comments in between my first looking at it and posting my comment.
According to the summary on the Ubuntu bug: "Essentially, we don't want to allow a '.' because of .dpkg-old and .dpkg-dist files." Is the implication that you can have .dpkg files in cron folders that you wouldn't want…
Can't help with the rock/hip hop, but for electronica (and its ilk) I would recommend: soma.fm (or, apparently, somafm.com, now.) (For example, the "cliqhop/idm" shoutcast stream is what I use when I need…
