Reading around about the two it could seem as if xinetd’s complexity, including many configuration files, would undermine simplicity. I’d appreciate a more informed comparison.

LambdaMOO is a fascinating virtual world. Users are allowed to expand the virtual world by building areas, and users with the Programmer Bit are also allowed to program new objects and areas.

I personally use a variant of Programmer’s Dvorak. Brackets and various symbols are placed where you usually see numbers, while you have to press shift to access numbers. I think that on a proper Programmer’s Dvorak Caps Lock should cause s

Finally managed to compile it on Arch Linux, using Cabal. I had to close my browser and IDE as there weren’t enough memory to compile it otherwise (it required more than 1000 MB).

After having spent a lot of time researching autism related topics on the web, I have become very sceptical of anything that is marketed through Google Ads. For several years, if not still, the anti-vaccine group Generation Rescue have had

After the incident, Norwegian media has highlighted that the charged terrorist debated on web forums, including those where other participants expressed similar sentiments. Police has encouraged people to report cases of extreme language on

After, or in addition to my Thinkpad Edge which I am moderately pleased with, I consider getting an Asus Eee. They seem pretty solid and appear to have good Linux compatibility. They also appear to be one of the most popular notebooks for F

That must have been one of Ken Thompson’s more productive days. (alluding to a quote from him that I can’t source, “One of my most productive days was throwing away 1000 lines of code.”)

Being different and bullied is sadly not always followed by success. As someone with the diagnosis of Asperger’s, which has been called “the Geek syndrome,” I am acquianted with many with the diagnosis who have struggled for a long time to

I generally come across errors if I attempt to install a port with yaourt that has many dependencies that are neither in the main repositories, such as the Yi text editor written in Haskell. Though I recognize that it is probably better tha

As a non-native speaker (Norwegian), I give a lot of attention to my written English skills. I learnt some German in school, but haven’t maintained what I learnt. I learnt the Korean alphabet through Wikibooks when I wanted to try out input

I am unable to try Safari at the moment, but while having tcpdump show my laptop’s network communications when typing into Chromium’s omnibar, I see that there’s a lot of communication with Google domains – so suggestions such as “testoster

While making a simple web application in Chicken Scheme, I used SXML transformations. From the code samples, that doesn’t appear to be the convention with this web framework. Is there a good reason to use alternatives to SXML? Or is it just

I’ve always found OpenID’s lack of similarity to email adresses immensely stupid. Email adresses is infrastructure that isn’t going away any time soon, and your grandma might have had a chance of actually using OpenID if she didn’t have to

Android seems to be an example of a Linux-based operating system becoming successful partially because of its importance to hardware vendors. Could Linux distributions in general benefit from a hardware vendor becoming the goto vendor for

When reading Scheme code for Chicken Scheme packages I find myself thinking – “So this is why Lisp is unpopular, it really is the parentheses!” I am not experienced reading Lisp code, but I find the many levels of indentation and the abunda

As someone who has spent a lot of time on laptops the past years, I consider getting a desktop because of the ergonomic qualities. I find it delightful whenever I get to type on a full-sized desktop keyboard these days. I might even try one

You don’t need stdio.h to use puts. I was in the process of making something similar before I found what I wanted – rlwrap. It provides readline line editing capabilities to command line applications that don’t support them, such as netcat.

PDD-NOS – Pervasive Development Disorder Not Otherwise Specified, is not necessarily a mild form of autism. The meaning is in the name. It means that the diagnosed doesn’t fit more specific diagnoses such as Kanner’s autism or Asperger synd

I chose it because I am under the impression that it is more ergonomic than Emacs and mainstream text editing environments. I learnt the basics of Emacs before I learnt vi/m.
