Except for the first statement on the page that it is derived from SICP, of course.

Modern ECT would be performed on only the right side of your brain, with one electrode on the temple and one slightly offcenter at the top of your head.

Last time I installed Arch, it did not. Also checking Scientific, it does not (assume also RHEL/CentOS).

As a sysadmin, let me reassure you that this is purely marketing nonsense. Careful listening to CEOs living inside their own bubble, far from reality...

You don't live in reality. Or at least your reality is not that of the average person.

I think it's a bit overkill to say any pre-commit hook that doesn't stash before running is 'wrong'. If nobody thought to stash before checking the files, maybe nobody else has a workflow that would require it. For me, staging and committ

I think this post should be titled Why Configuration Management?, with a subtext of using Chef as an example. The main points the author is making are true of CFEngine, Puppet, Chef, and other config management software. The question of W

Because I do not like the way e-ink displays look (such as the Kindle), I bought the Nook Color. To me, it is smaller and lighter than the iPad, but large enough to comfortably read books normally printed on large pages. For technical boo

Yes, of course. Nothing is wrong with using Fabric. It's a clear step above trying to use shell scripts to manage your servers and deployments. But what I am seeing across several comments is that tools like Puppet and Chef are clearly m

You can argue whatever you want, but Puppet's job is to enforce system state whereas Fabric simply allows programmatic use of SSH. Fabric and Puppet are completely separate projects with very different goals.

It was $10 million based on $40 million valuation. Combined with the latest investment, it seems a majority percentage of equity would still belong to the founders. Well past successful at a $200 million valuation, for sure.

I agree. The font size displayed was simply too large to read comfortably, whereas HN is very easy to read. Nothing to see here...

As a sysadmin who uses Puppet for a few hundred servers, I strongly disagree with the assertion that "After spending 25% of your time working with Puppet, you will be much more likely to reach for ruby for your next scripting task." I'm no

You may have tried but generally add -n to netstat to speed it up by just displaying IPs instead of trying to resolve them. I've never seen a system with so many concurrent connections hands on so there could be some other bottleneck.

Thankfully, every keyboard in the last ten years does NOT come with such extraneous buttons.

I find it odd when people create such strange generalizations in their head. Whether this comment is from your own anecdotal experience or not, it is just plain wrong as a general matter. Defeating an unemployment appeal is certainly poss

Does the data this author provides contradict his assertions? From NLSY79 data, the gap for wealth between low to high IQ is very large compared to the gap in the Terman data where the difference is much smaller. To me, this agrees with Gl

As some anecdotal evidence against your point, I've installed Windows 7 on three different systems from a USB stick and all three had the same issue: the installer is unable to see the hard disk while the USB drive is plugged in. From sear

The ability to snapshot hot MySQL databases is nothing new and certainly not unique to RDS. You most likely could have implemented a similar solution when you were running on dedicated hardware. But as a solo dev who isn't an SA/DBA you s

Have a medical issue? There's a pill for that! Why not try something natural first like counseling, exercise, meditation, etc? I'm sincerely curious why your immediate response is to use medication to solve the problem.

This has been hashed and rehashed, but again, there is no right to drive (in a normal context). It is a privilege that must be earned and can be taken away. I really wish people would stop using that comparison to make the case for the 'r

You say you have a HM chair but if you didn't try the embody then you might be missing out. Reduced fatigue when sitting in the chair for 12+ hours means more productivity -- this chair has already paid for itself. http://www.hermanmiller
