First time I've ever seen the Github 500 error page. It looks cool!

500 is a server error. I see it in Firefox as well.

It always was. When I started using Firefox it was an alternative to IE6. It was the browser you used if you were a web developer because it had things like Firebug (which Google copied and integrated into Chrome). Chrome didn't conv

I didn't say anything about making alcohol illegal. I'm completely opposed to the government telling people what they can put inside their bodies.

My diet is very well-controlled. I fast for 20 hours every day and have a perfectly balanced intake. But if I drink alcohol I will sleep badly and I will have a bad day tomorrow. Why do people refuse to believe this?

Nah, I still do eat rich full-fat, salty, and carb-heavy food. Trust me, it's the alcohol. The day after drinking used be completely wasted for me. Now every day can be very productive.

Obviously I can't say anything about my own longevity, but over the past few years my alcohol consumption has decreased to virtually zero and I've never felt better. I was never a big drinker, but I would semi-regularly go out and

But maybe not too much? My parents let me sleep. School started at 9:00 for me but on weekends and holidays I would sleep for more than ten hours and default to a >24 hour circadian rhythm. I would eventually become completely nocturnal

I'm quite concerned about air quality in the UK but according to that map everywhere in the UK is "good", even London.

This is definitely part of the reason. Back when git was first released there was a huge amount of scepticism about whether anyone actually needed it, but lots of people used it anyway just because they wanted to use what Linus made for Lin

Huh? How could they change once a year? The point is winter time is GMT and summer time is the change. The UK did remain on BST once, but that was during the war (interestingly it also went to double summer time in the summer).

The clocks changing really does mess up my sleep for a good couple of weeks every time. This year I might just ignore the change and continue operating an hour out of phase.

That makes no sense. The clocks change in the summer, not the winter, and in summer Scotland sees about 20 hours of sunlight.

It is a really interesting marketing move (and don't delude yourself, this is a marketing move). To market a feature that Google can't possibly compete with.

I use a tiling WM and I use screen solely for the detaching functionality. It means I can restart X without restarting things like irssi.

I'm curious about your setup and why you wouldn't want to detach smaller screens.

Is tmux actually more reliable in this respect or have you just been lucky so far? I had a screen session running for three years with no problems.

Almost all the software used in biology is FLOSS. The problem is you need a lab process to get the data in the first place.

The Sony Xperia Z3 Compact was a great phone. But unfortunately it had a design flaw that meant the screen would become unglued and it's very hard to repair. I "upgraded" to the X Compact but it's complete garbage in com

What's the point of having print or console.log around everything? Just have one box with "print to standard output" and those two at the top.
