Interesting project and congratulations. Seems like a simpler version of scssphp (and associated WP plugins based on it).
Loads of us use nano. Simple light editor without the overhead (read learning curve), of all the other big editors. Sure, I might not write code in it, but when I need to edit a conf file or two, both on a server, and…
This looks incredibly interesting. Open source, and pluggable too? Nice!
Ran into this problem a couple of months ago. Could not figure out why Docker would not install on a stock 14.04 bare metal server from OVH. Turns out it was their custom kernel. With a little flag in the corner giving…

Prenups are strange in that those who are mature enough to get them, probably don't need them, and those who aren't, do need them. If I had my way, prenups would be a mandatory requisite for anyone applying for a…
Document the vulnerability. Document your attempts to contact the bank. Contact your local[1] newspaper. Particularly one that is big on investigative journalism, and technology. A good hint is if they covered the…

But Azer was right on the money. A request, by definition requires a binary response. A polite request, by definition, means that you can live (however badly) with either a Yay, or a nay. Kik's attitude (whilst claiming…
>>They are trying to protect US citizens from losing their jobs (or getting wages cut) due to a sudden availability of cheap labor. Mmmm. I hear you. Sort of. Your argument though, is not very different from the "women…
Can someone please remind me again why USians should have a god given right to jobs in the US? Or put another way ... should an accident of birth(place) be the most import decider on whether someone should get a job or…
Almost reminds me of the Lingua Latina method I used to learn Latin. You basically read a text that is totally in Latin, with occasional images to guide you. It starts off very simply, and gradually introduces new…
The Sherlock Holmes Museum is not located at 221b Baker Street. That address does not exist, but any mail addressed to it is redirected to the Museum, which is technically 239 Baker Street (since it sits between 237 and…
Ahh, I forgot to add the 'solution'. The 'sex' bit, will be marrying google search results with other sources, and breeding a search ranking algorithm specific to you. For example, the Facebook 'like' button could turn…
I have been thinking a lot about this problem. If indeed it is a problem. Google is in the business of serving ads. The vast majority of those spammy sites display google ads. So, there is little incentive for google to…
As a Zimbabwean myself, I would have to say that most of the posters here totally missed the point of the site. The site was not a critique of quantitative easing. It is a commentary on the Zim government's attack on a…
I wish I could upvote this more than once. I have been screaming for a long time, that the housing boom and subsequent bust were directly caused by government action. Thomas Sowell wrote a very interesting and…
This is really bad maths. Imagine diagonal of X cm. Imagine screen so tall and thin, that diagonal approaches vertical. Area is tiny. As you swing same diagonal downwards, area increases. Till diagonal is 45% from…
Another useful method of opinion getting I have found to be useful, is to directly beg/ask for criticism. "Please tell me all the bad things you can think about this idea." "Please tell me all the reasons you think this…
My biggest problem with most of the "I just need $1m" people I have met is twofold. One, most of them would have no idea how to use that million in a sustainable way. Take a look at all the lottery winners that end up…
I think it is a combination of many things. a. The curious will always learn. Books have been around for a long time. In the west, the books are cheap/affordable. Still you find many people that cannot be bothered to…
I think the post should have been titled 'How I destroyed my startup by competing for the only girl in the office with my cofounder'. Small offices are no places for dramas. A bit different in large organisations where…
