   If noise keeps you out of office space I would imagine that the neighbors near your proposed garage would be similarly affected.

   I tried this a few days ago. I searched for 'python' and got back 'django' which was a little spooky.

   I have never been able to log into HN from my G1, so I'm interested in the answer.

   My kids like 'Abduction: World Attack' (or as they call it 'bouncy cow') I play FloodFill, Labyrinth Lite, TiltMazes, Orbs Knockoff Lite, TopSETGame, Zilch Free. I used to play Word Wrench a lot and it was a big competition between my wife

   Again, comparing to a BB the G1 browsing is heavenly for me. 99% of the time I can make an entire day and I charge overnight. I don't run persistent service other that twidroid. I leave wifi on full time but with the new application/batte

   I'm in TX also, Austin to be specific. My network speed is pretty good but I'm only comparing it to an EDGE connection on my work BB. The donut release isn't bad. Good performance boost (I wouldn't classify mine as 'huge' but we might use

   I was a bit underwhelmed by my 'donut' update. More fit and finish than new features. I really can't wait for Verizon's offerings because I need better network coverage than T-Mobile. My phone doesn't work at my parents house or my in-law

    OT on bad or obscure jokes: I have an image posted in my cube that is a pic of Bruce Schneier and the caption reads "Bruce Schneier knows the state of Schroedinger's cat" Someone asked me to explain it to them so I talked about Schroedinge

    I've been thinking about one of these. http://www.tonido.com/ I don't know exactly what you are going to do but it might be better to serve email/files from something like this and use your bigger server only when needed. I guessing your

    8 cores with a single GB of RAM. Really? If this is strictly a file server you can do a lot better than that energy wise.

    I bought this exact kit earlier this year and I fall firmly in the 'I want more neat stuff' camp. I want to buy the ARDX kit but it didn't come out until after I had already purchased the starter kit. http://www.adafruit.com/index.php?main

    I was referring specifically to a wireless keyboard not wireless internet. I've read stories on the net about a neighbor's keyboard attaching itself to a different computer.

    Do you have a wireless keyboard and do you live in close proximity to other people who do? (roommate, dorm, apartment buidling)

    Me too. The first thing I did was try to find my record. It was easy because my salary figure was fairly unique.

    Not to be harsh, but by posting a submission you are making a big production of it.

    I tend to generate my dot file from separate data anyway. To me, this lowers the barrier on getting something out there quickly. I can think of a lot of simple improvements to what is there now.

    If you lock your vocabulary down e.g. entity 'have a' comma-sep-attr-list entity 'have many' referenced-entity etc and create dot files for Graphviz this would be very easy.

    It's just a guess but I'll bet it's using Graphviz under the covers. I wrote something similar to create ERD's on the fly from a schema.

    It doesn't understand what you are typing. It probably just splits on words and tries to match what it has seen before. I'll bet if you abuse it you can break it. Edit: It seems to do a split on spaces and then takes the first word and th
