I second this. di.fm is playing for about half my work day, and often when I'm at home too. I love the Trance and Vocal Trance channels, with forays into EuroClub, DubStep and Chillout Dreams.

I should do this more often. Look at the wealth of information returned in the headers: 1) They're using nginx (which is powered by Ponies!) 2) The site is fronted by varnish with a ttl of 1 hour, of which there appear to be at least 4 var

Indeed! And Australians are quite aware just how much they are being ripped off now that online purchases from non-Australian retailers are becoming more prevalent.

Seconded! The Australian market is ripe for a company like Stripe. People are just now getting happy with buying things online, so hurry!

Given what Irish bankers did to the country, I wouldn't give much credence to their opinion. Unfortunately they still pull the strings and have incredible political clout. I'm not even Irish (though I lived there a few years) and it makes m

When I moved to Australia and setup iTunes, I was shocked and pissed off at the price bump. Yet one more reason to subscribe to alternative methods of music acquisition. To add insult to injury, the AUD has recently been at par or stronger

Sorry for the late reply, but yes it was a problem with my passport (it was wrongly reported as being stolen). When checking in in Dublin, the airline employee checking me in mentioned something about my passport but we were allowed on the

Thank you once again for distilling the legal terminology into something I can understand.

On Friday when I cycled home from work, I wore a compression shirt under my cycling jersey for the first time. When I arrived home, I had drunk less than half the water I did the previous trip. This is anecdotal at best, but I'm going to we

Thank you so much for the pointer! I've installed it, and I imagine I'll be using it quite a bit in the coming weeks at $work.

This was certainly the case for Etihad when I flew from Dublin => Sydney last year. Of course, the airline managed to not notice the problem with my passport/visa until I was Abu Dhabi and Sydney said "Do not let him on the plane". The

The original article had a link to this ( http://torrentfreak.com/bittorrents-future-dht-pex-and-magne... ) which I found a bit more helpful explaining the concepts.

Thanks for all the excellent pointers, some of which I knew but most I did not. I'm happy things turned out so well for you. We recently had to navigate the Google Maps licensing obstacle course at $work. I tried getting quotes from Bing, b

Yes, I too would love more information on integrating backbone into existing apps. We're adding a lot of JS at $work and I'd like to better organize it and reduce boilerplate code.

Let's start by being able to talk about the basics like IP addresses, servers and domain names? The baseline doesn't have to be very high to weed out the ignorant.

I tried watching the hearings but I couldn't stay awake through the reading of the bill. My heart goes out to the poor clerk who had to read it out! "There ought to be a law, I think, that in order to regulate something you have to have som

Anything to shake up the Australian hosting market would be welcome! We just ditched our AU CDN because it wasn't nearly as reliable as it should be, and very expensive to boot!

I'm watching Sintel now at 1080p. The quality is something I'd expect to see in a movie theater! Previously I've seen Big Buck Bunny, which my daughter loves. :) But Sintel blows it away.

This is a incredibly useful overview. My jaw dropped when I read about all the uber-jump commands! I've been setting markers, but this is 100x better. This is exactly why I read every single post about vim, because I always learn something

As a new resident of Australia, I love, love, love the idea of superannuation. My employer contributes 9% (IIRC) to my retirement. I never see it, so I never miss it or spend it. I can also choose to make extra contributions if I like, whic

I had never heard of these HTTP headers before. Thank you for the pointers.

I wonder if you could run the Boxee software on it? Presumably the key factor would be if the software would take advantage of hardware HD video playback.

Finally, I get it! This go around, the ideas of ColumnFamilies stuck. Thanks for the slides. Any chance the video is available to go along with it?

I too could do this, and even up until very recently I would occasionally hear the electronics.

A timely thought, given the "planned downtime" at the data center hosting our AUS CDN today. There's no way it was planned - who in their right mind schedules maintenance at 15:00?

IMHO they would also have been considered "politically important" enough to have their losses covered, given their long history of private => public => private employment.

I've decided today that I need to start playing with Arduino for precisely this reason. Before I switched from EE to CS, I took one of the first EE courses where we used a breadboard, a controller which we had to program and actually made s

Hmmm, I've always said if I quit programming I'd probably go into Civil Engineering. Perhaps it's time to look for some magazines next time I go to the library. I'll read just about anything, for precisely the same reason Andy crashed the c
