I don't think there is a perfect way to organize a music collection in a hierarchical manner, so I don't even bother. Good tag metadata and foobar's search does all the work for me. To me, the purpose of a filesystem is not to implement fin

Don't let a few bores discourage you; the open source world needs more tastefully done over-the-top humor. Most of the times I've seen someone try to be funny in a landing page or a pull request, it's either obnoxious, cringeworthy, or lame

The other interesting property to the first algorithm is that you don't need to calculate a conditional for each bit in one of those factors. You can just AND each bit in one factor by all the bits in the other factor (ANDing is equivalent

Yeah, I'm aware. The problem stems from the fact that you can't type the unambiguous name "ni-channeru" without looking like an insufferable dork/weeaboo. 2ch and 2chan (.net) are the domain names of "ni-channeru" and Futaba Channel, respec

I guess you kind of answered the question I had in mind. Most "western" people seem to see anonymity or even pseudoanonymity as something you use when you have something to hide, something you don't want traced back to you. Everything else,

You've mentioned before that you visit 4chan every day. Do you visit any text boards? I guess it's my own fault for fighting against the nature of the site, but sometimes I try to go the extra mile and put some effort into a post, and feel

Selective archives (users vote to archive a thread) have been around since at least 2007: http://4chanarchive.org/ http://suptg.thisisnotatrueending.com/archive.html Full board archives have been around for quite some time as well: htt

On Windows and most Linux DEs, each window is given its own entry in window switching keyboard shortcuts, and (though you have to enable it in Windows XP and up) the task bar. I keep several Chrome windows open at once for this precise reas

Are you kidding? I'd estimate there is a small army of cyberpunk fans out there who would jump at the chance to use a mind-computer interface to control a robot.

None of this recent discussion is about why the average computer user doesn't use Linux or won't try it -- that topic has long since been beaten to death. It's about why Linux has the inferior desktop experience, and how OSX was able to ste

I only saw the kind of macros you're probably thinking about (on the order of #define min(X, Y) ((X) < (Y) ? (X) : (Y))) in kbit.h, but I didn't look at the source to all the components. What klib does seem to use the preprocessor quit

Xarn came up with a very similar implementation of an s-expression-based markup language a few years ago: http://cairnarvon.rotahall.org/2010/05/25/towards-a-better-b... It's fun to play around with for a minute, but unless you really lik
