Maybe a stupid question, but what would be the altternative? Recently I started to think along these lines: code not being used and/or worked on is slowly decaying (due to bitrot :) ). Personally i would opt to share even if it's not perfec

Interesting library. Thanks for sharing! One question though: where does the screenshot of the item which has been clicked on come from? As far as I understand your lib does not provide any means to create a screenshot? Is this correct? Wou

The thing I found most interesting, is the use of couchdb and python for Raindrop instead of XUL. My hypothesis: Due to CouchDB being used by both Canonical (UbuntuOne) and now Mozilla in new interesting 'products I'm more and less convin

With regards to point 2: I read something in a foreign language instead of just complex fiction. It forces me to slow down and it helps me keep up with my foreign languages. Usually this meant English (I'm Dutch), but since I read a lot of

Well, actually I was using cdbm and thought it might be nice to mention it on HN. Then I noticed you added some other interesting stuff as well, so even more reason to submit it to HN :) So not an adventerous PyPi visitor, just someone who

I understand the frustration of the developers of Ninja Words, but I do not understand why we keep having these Apple Store rejected app stories on HN. If Apple is behaving like a jerk, why invest any energy in them? AFAIK there are other i

I haven't read all comments yet, but some commenters seem to make the presumption that copyright is about artists. It is not. It is about the rightsholder which may in- or exclude artists. I'm writing this on my commute so I don't have the

What about rhizome.org? I'll admit that I only visit it perhaps once a month, but it if you like art perhaps rhizome is something to check out? Oh, as far as I know its more a blog than a community, so not exactly like HN.

AFAIK and IANAL you're not completely right. It depends on the type of DVD you use. If for instance it's a movie DVD using something like CSS (remember DVD Jon?) and you access it's content by breaking the CSS "protection" then you're right

I have tried the previous versions and I was a bit confused about it. It seems the extjs does not really care about no-javascript, because switching off javascript led to all sorts of issues. Its not so much that we expected people to have

I use some chairs that were in use by a local supermarket and which got thrown out due changes in the interior. It may sound silly, but keep in mind that the people behind the counter need to set for long periods of time just like your aver

Good to hear the work been put into it Kepler could be used by doing something else as well. Nice to know the system was well designed.

by BjornW 18y ago
Thanks. Could you elaborate why you used Kepler and Lua? Was this specifically due to the usage of Lua in WoW addon programming?

Ask HN: Anyone used Lua Kepler?

It depends on what you want to do. Do you want full-disk encryption or just one encrypted partition/file? Personally I use full-disk encryption. From what I've read its recommended to encrypt the whole system and not just a partition if you
