I recently installed vimium on chrome, and being able to quick navigate to a specific tab via keyboard (by typing the title or selecting it from a list) has completely eradicated my issue with finding tabs on chrome. There's something

I think that's the best possible outcome here. I'd be a little worried about having too many options, causing readership of any one to be low, but at the same time, a quality best of HN will most likely float to the top, and if it

So, assuming I'm parsing you correctly, would you say that at this time, the benefit is that we can avoid the bacteria becoming resistant by creating a large range of things that it would have to become resistant to, and the down-side

I don't agree that "microsoft already does this" - so don't take what I'm about to say to mean that. I mean only to show a piece of technology that more directly relates to the comments others have made. That being

Well, it's definitely a generalization, but I would say it's right for some Americans. I'll eat alone without hesitation, but many of my friends will not, and have a strong aversion to it. I think there's a point to be m

Interesting points, I'll keep them in mind. I don't really have to worry too much about making old code work, so I'd not be too concerned with that. I'll probably start with Py3 because I don't really expect to rely

This is a good point. The metadata about time online might well be enough to pinpoint who is talking to who, over a long enough time. One option to avoid this is to get rid of status indicators, though that is inelegant and means the messag

It is, I believe, still used, but the lack of development is certainly a concern. I believe it's every bit as common to create disposable accounts on other chat clients and just enable OTR[0] for whatever protocol you use. Traffic is t

What is compromised is the disconnect from a real persona. There are times where you would like everyone to know they are talking to you, but no one to know who you are talking to, or what is being said. It's like publicly listing a pu

At least in the variants of lisp I've used, defining a function would be done using defun, not define, so yeah, probably.
