Wifi Sense actually shares credentials with your contacts and vice versa, so you automatically connect to hotspots within your (social) network. Not sure exactly how it handles duplicate SSIDs and things; probably with the heuristics you ar

I like Source Tree for Windows and Gitg/Gitx on Linux/Mac. Also recommend downloading P4 Merge and setting that up as your default merge tool.

If you already have some familiarity with Git, you may find this 2-page reference poster[1] helpful if you need a cheatsheet at your desk. [1]: https://www.dropbox.com/sh/quumaubjftxik1u/AAD15CT1UrNyOuYSx...

This is great! D3 is really powerful but it's kind of a pain to compose on-the-fly. Feature request: It would be cool to use the same viewport settings to plot arrays of points instead of functions, so that it could be integrated with

Beowulf starts with a "So", in the 1999 Seamus Heaney translation. He explains why in the foreword: 'so' operates as an expression that obliterates all previous discourse and narrative, and at the same time

This is the distro GNU/Linux needed in 2009. I used to be a big fan, but these days I can't help but feel they are off the mark by focusing on so heavily on creating a "beautiful" 00's desktop environment when the r

Good pointer. I have an old laptop with Arch that basically only runs Chromium apps and terminal programs -- PapyrOS looks like the logical step up from there, when it's ready.

Definitely check out the Andrei Tarkovsky film adaptation of "Roadside Picnic", called "Stalker." He also adapted Stanislaw Lem's "Solaris," which was mentioned below.

It's not FOSS, but the new WebGL-based Onshape[1] from the original Solidworks team looks like it is going to be making waves. It's free for small public projects (Github-style). They are licensing the existing Parasolid and D-Cub

Claws, formerly Sylpheed - comes standard on lightweight distros like Puppy Linux. There's also Geary by Yorba, which has a similar look and feel to the mail client on OSX but for Ubuntu-based distros. It is standard on ElementaryOS.

My point is that the semi structured content that makes up theses web pages is being parsed out and displayed directly alongside search results. The parsed DOM is used as a defacto API, killing the need to provide any layout information wha

Edit: Fine, too rambly. Short version. Google Now or Siri are killing the page as a medium for certain types of content, and I would not be surprised if the info providers transition to an API-first model where the primary target is layout-

For 5¢ more you can make your own "pour-over cone" by cutting a soda can in half and sticking the top half upside down in the the mouth of your mug. Put the filter or cheesecloth or bandana in there.

It isn't quite done: https://github.com/colah/ImplicitCAD/issues I found that it works for most thing but can produce broken STLs occasionally.

There's also ImplicitCAD, which is Haskell and actually more powerful in some ways. Unmaintained as of this summer, though. http://www.implicitcad.org/

As much as I like OpenSCAD for its scriptability, the OP is really pushing the limits of what you can do with it. I'm hoping FreeCAD takes off eventually in this space (hobbyist parts design). Of possible interest to those reading this
