The evil assistant is one of the best voiceovers ever in german as well.

GoG started doing this on their high profile offers. It's probably to avoid download servers being overloaded without frustrating users.

The introduction is in person, at the users group. Yep, tutorials is a huge problem, but there are people working on that.

Well, thanks for pointing it out. That's a good opportunity for improval :).

With a few friends, i've been running a ruby bulletin board in german and found that there is a definite need for localized assistance. While quite a few people can read english docs okay, it is far harder to ask proper questions and i

I think the documentation is not clear here. ElasticSearch has an internal GeoPoint type, which can be read from any kind of JSON document. One of the possible notations is the GeoJSON coordinate notation. Elasticsearch can map any kind of

Sure, ES supports lat/lon as properties, strings, geohash and geojson: http://www.elasticsearch.org/guide/en/elasticsearch/referenc...

Probably because some store features have been missing up to 1.0, like backup/restore without knowing database internals. (yes, rsync did the job, but only because you knew the list of guarantees that makes it possible). Also, Lucene a

Beyond the technology, Elasticsearch has a very mature, active and helpful community with users groups all over the world. We're well connected. Pick your favourite users group here: http://elasticsearch.meetup.com/ Fu

Especially as accounting and legal is easily solved: 1) hire an accountant 2) hire a lawyer (I had both since day one and that was the best decision I ever made)

I neither knew Crimsonland and that it has such a mode. Thank you!

That reminds me of The Typing of the Dead, a "House of the Dead" variant where you had to type words to shoot the zombies instead of pointing a gun. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Typing_of_the_Dead Note th

Hm, that is a nice start indeed, but as far as I can tell, intersections and cuts are not in :(. pstricks I forgot, I know that as well. I am not that attached to the syntax, just the possibilities and some of the vocabulary.

Quick side-question: I know metapost and tikz rather well and am searching for a JS library that does similar things using SVG, especially when it comes to path drawing. Example: draw a curved path from the center of item A to the center of

Sorry for the misinformation then :). Good to know. QT is good.

As far as I see, Krita is built using GTK. An OS X built will probably just run using the OS X X11 server.

If your company has the stance of being opinionated and you have at least 3 instances of people investing the time to create an attempt at satire about you... you must have done _something_ right!

ARPA used TCP and the whole thing got build from that. Non-TCP for local network was quite usual for a while (eg. IPX). But to connect to the existing internet, you had to speak TCP. After the internet "won", switching to TCP for

Yep, thats the detailed story. A lot of Linuxes (especially current Ubuntu LTS) ship without those patches, though, which makes the whole exercise of compiling the kernel yourself (and maybe a debug image to go along with it) a tedious one,

Sure, pick your poison. (although I couldn't care less about Bell, being from Europe and all) But be aware that said regulation allows us to make emergency calls reliably in the case of an accident and then quickly talk to loved ones o

Thanks for the writeup! strace should definitely be in your toolbox. There is also systemtap, which I like a lot as well. It has some problem on Linux though, especially only being widely supported of Linux > 3.5 if the distro you are us

If SMS is crappy for you, just take phone calls. There is still jam-in, yes, but you can mostly find a cheap phone connection from any place in the world to any other. I regularly call cross-continent and with some googling, you get a decen

This is a purely business perspective, completely dropping the interests of the user. All older communication companies (providing e.g. phone calls, fax, SMS) have working, interoperable systems that work on a global scale for _any customer

I think that depends on context a lot. If you've got room to roam a group of drunk people that keeps to itself is rarely a problem. I've been to conferences where the party was in a small, crowded and loud area and I just didn&#x2

There is a fine line. The argument often goes that linking for informations sake is fine. However, the whole post is written in a fashion that shows how proud Gawker is of their scoop and that they can show the script. This would mean that

The parent stated "free" (as beer). We're not talking "free" (as speech). And free as beer it is, it is never on a bill.

Which is also not true. I never payed for OS X, like as a line item on an invoice. I do cover the cost of manufacturing, as with _every other good sold for profit_ out there. I do cover the cost of the software on the hardware, but the same
