If you look at the contents of the .app, you can edit main.scpt in AppleScript Editor, but it's really just doing two things, creating the VM if necessary: docker-machine create -d virtualbox --virtualbox-memory 2048 default and popula

Thanks for the reply. I hadn't quit Kitematic by the time I started Quickstart Terminal, but Kitematic had completed the creation of its VM: docker-machine ls showed default as running, and the docker cli button at the bottom of the wi

I started looking at Docker during vacation last week. I had a slightly outdated copy of Boot2Docker that didn't play well with VirtualBox 5.0. With limited bandwidth, I downloaded the docker-machine executable rather than the whole

I haven't paid much attention to Maya since Autodesk bought it, but people seemed pretty excited when the price dropped from $7,000 to $2,000. If the other comment about pricing is accurate, it sounds like Stingray is effectively bund

This interface makes a system call at run time to reduce privileges. I wonder if there is a way to do this statically and automatically, either with some header file magic, or by analyzing the symbols in the executable: just assume at link

Most clients interact with the database through a standard API like JDBC or REST, but there is an interface for calling functions written in C, and for getting into the database from C. It's kind of similar to Lua's C API. The N

Keep in mind that MUMPS started around the same time as Unix (a little before, actually), so the same motivation for naming commands like cp, mv, and rm was likely at play in allowing abbreviations: interactive use on remote terminals.

Didn't see this reply until now. I don't remember whether the repository is configured out of the box, or whether I added one, but I've gotten updates the last couple of times I installed OEL. You may be right about their ke

My understanding is that AMD and Intel's cross-licensing agreement would terminate if AMD was acquired. Previously this would have discouraged acquisition, but at this point I wonder if Intel needs AMD64 more than AMD needs IA32, SSE,

Our family recently got a coloring book as a gift called Splendid Cities . I thought it was strange that it was filed under self-help. It's subtitled, "Coloring Your Way to Calm." My wife and daughter colored opposite sid

Interesting article, but worth noting that it was written well before Oracle's successful appeal.

Absolutely. In Emacs, I depend heavily on etags and the occasional rgrep to find my way around a fairly large project written mostly in C. I haven't dealt with a JavaScript project large enough that I've bothered setting up tags,

You're assuming that Valve is trying to make hay somehow by promoting this game, but I wonder if the game's placement is simply a result of a spike in sales by users who can't purchase it on the Mac App Store. I'm guess

The chart in the results section is interesting. I don't remember reading Raymond Chen's post on branch prediction before, so thanks for that: http://blogs.msdn.com/b/oldnewthing/archive/2014/0

Thanks for commenting, and congratulations on the grant. Looking forward to the release.

I'd be surprised if it made a difference, but the definition of a dead or comatose server would seem to include failover cluster members.

Kind of a brute force hack, but why not? A Kinesis Freestyle2 with Bluetooth and a 20" cable might work, except that you'd have to fiddle with the cable across your lap every time you got out of the chair.

I was upset to hear that nearly $30 million of the tsunami relief money ended up subsidizing the Japanese whaling fleet. (Heard that on Whale Wars, so I'm not 100% sure it's true.)
