Can you not import them locally via the Disqus API, so that if at some point in the future you are not happy with Disqus, you can move to an alternative solution?

Have to admit, I smirked that SlashGeek is outsourcing its comments system to disqus. Edit: even better, the Disqus comments are now failing to load with the message "Sorry, we're undergoing temporary maintenance."

I'm personally counting that fact that HIB V manage to pull in more money ($5,108,725 http://support.humblebundle.com/customer/portal/articles/281... ) as a win for those of us upset that this offer moved away from Humble Bundle's DRM-free

I don't care about cross-platform, but I feel abandoning DRM-free is really moving away from the original concept.

Do you hope to support existing Smalltalk codebases, e.g. Scratch/BYOB?

This is why the fact that Alex Chadwick has written just enough of a USB driver for HIDs is such a useful contribution.

Yes, but all our kernel code was already open. Everything that runs on the ARM is now FOSS.

Alex Chadwick has done a fantastic job on this. He's just finished his first year of the undergraduate CS course, and has spent the summer interning for us at the computer lab working on this. It's fair to say that it's more a guide to bare

This has been handling my todo-list needs for well over a year now. I recently added support for categories, because the way I used the tool changed over time. I know there are loads of these sort of tools already, but of course sh-todo has

I love the site update. It's very classy there's not even a direct GitHub homepage link, let alone a logo. Is this considered the official Git website? If so, would it not make sense for the domain to be owned by e.g. the SFC on behalf of t

See the very impressive work on BlenderPocket by Salvatore Russo a number of years ago http://www.blender.org/community/blender-conference/blender-... That's proof it can be done! I did drop him an email to see if he was still active in t

Did the Python Software Foundation not apply this year?

Yeah, the chances of a regression being fixed increase massively if you do a regression test to bisect the offending commit and file a bug on Bugzilla.

Appears to be painfully sluggish under X (Raspberry Pi doesn't yet have graphics acceleration there, totally not your fault). Somewhat better under SDL on the framebuffer, but I keyboard input doesn't seem to be working there. I only gave t

Hi Salvatore. I'll run it on my alpha board this evening and let you know how it currently performs.

Not to forget: they all have day jobs. People have been worrying for ages about how Raspberry Pi will deal with the demand and get out of a process of making batches, having them sell out instantly and then using that capital to build the n

My sh-todo script tries to deal with the issue of keeping track of what you've done and when: https://github.com/asb/sh-todo Once you've marked an item as done, it still shows up as crossed off when you run 'todo' (seeing a list with lots

Steam games are DRM encumbered. If Valve decide they don't like you any more, you can no longer play the games on your Steam account.

by asb 15y ago
I personally think it's a bit off that a crowdfunded project like this is offering a DRMed deliverable to its customers. I expect the choice of Steam is more due to convenience than a consideration of its DRM scheme, but I'd be much more co

I have my own very simple entry in this space: https://github.com/asb/sh-todo It's a bit annoying that so few terminals implement the ANSI escape sequence for strikethrough (gnome-terminal does!) but I've been using it for almost a year n

I've been using a similarly minimal system for about 10 months now. One feature I really can't do without is the ability to save completed tasks and the time they were marked done. I find it very handy to look back over the past week or so

November might have been mentioned as a possibility, but end of the year or December has afaik always been the stated target. I'd hardly say delays so far are 'considerable'.

D. Richard Hipp and the SQLite project have not had such a positive experience with static code analysis. They already use a massive amount of testing though. There's also no mention of commercial tools like Coverity. See the "Static Anal
