Dear Microsoft, Can you please, please, please, create an emulation mode where file name paths use forward slashes instead of back slashes? Bonus points awarded if you also consider getting rid of the c:\ "disk name"…
Agree. The basic premise is that we're all sort of racists, and therefore we think any other generic-looking person is just like us. I don't see much data to support his conclusion. Also, is this question the same as…
I think there's a fallacy here. The housing market is not a monopoly, but higher education largely is. Universities do compete with one another for top talent, but as a group they also have a firm grip on the number of…
The amount of "men vs. women in tech" stories on HN is starting to be a bit ridiculous. If there were no such thing as social construction, and all people had the freedom to do whatever they want to do, how many people…
Boomerang-shaped desk with two monitors: one large, one small. The large monitor shares space with Windows apps and the VNC to my Linux session. On my Linux fvwm2 desktop I primarily use konsole to tab around different…

I have an idea. Apply for some job that you are totally unqualified for (most will seem this way). When you finally get the email from the hiring manager telling you that you're not qualified, start an email dialogue…
My ideal living space would be a medium-sized house almost entirely devoid of any "stuff". No art hanging on the walls. No stack of crappy DVDs I never watch. Just a bed, a computer desk, a nice TV, and some…
Thanks. Incidentally, I just wanted to say that I almost always use Python for scripting and design automation stuff. I wrote about it here: http://svffap.blogspot.com/2008/09/why-python-for-hardware.h...
Am I the only hardware engineer here? SystemVerilog gets no respect :).
