There was a point in my life, having grown up in north-east England, when I thought this Sun-SGI strip sounded like the most wonderful otherworldly place you could possibly be. Sun workstations were the first machines I'd used that had

As a non-American, I am slightly boggled by the bit about Delaware. I kind of, sort of knew about Delaware, but the idea that every startup incorporates there? Are all the SV startups nominally Delaware businesses? Can someone point to a

Thanks for the reply and yes, I'm sorry. I didn't mean to imply that there was some kind of marketing trick going on. I just think the response here (treating this device as if it were a high-end consumer device) is somewhat under

This defensive it's-just-a-developer-phone angle seems to take it for granted that there are other FirefoxOS phones more suitable for "high-end" users who aren't looking for a developer device. Are there? (For my part I

SendOwl ( http://www.sendowl.com ), formerly known as Digital Delivery App. No particular complaints, but it's been a while since I've looked at the competition.

A related trick is to use parentheses to create a subshell, in the case where you have a fixed command sequence you want to execute in another directory but you don't want to stay there: $ pwd /tmp $ mkdir -p a/b&#x2F

Now that's an interesting site. It would be cool if the free tier included one private project, so you could test it without making a public project full of typical test blathering. (I see the Discover page lists a few projects that ar

This seems like quite a big deal -- the parts were in place already, but having a route promoted by Github will probably make a big difference in academia. The idea of having a citable DOI for your work exerts a magic that is possibly out o

Does it continue to be free after you stop being an academic?

Interesting, but I found it incredibly hard to come up with sensible estimates for profiles. So much depends on their location -- do I assume they'll be staying where they are and try to estimate what salaries there should be like, or

You might also like the Yanno chord extractor, with super-academic-looking but quite easy to use UI here: http://yanno.eecs.qmul.ac.uk If I remember aright, both Chordify and Yanno use NNLS Chroma for the feature extractor but t

I have that machine, and I run Linux on it. His post was quite valuable, and that was obviously a bit of a horror on Lenovo's part, but it looks as if a subsequent BIOS update fixed it -- or at least I got a newer version of the BIOS t

No, I have a Keon, but the ZTE Open is very similar. They both have low-resolution screens (same as non-retina iPhones) which can cause trouble too. They are quite good lowest-common-denominator test devices, not so good as primary smartpho

This kind of thing ought to be splendid on FirefoxOS, but the examples are disappointing at the moment. For instance, it doesn't seem to be possible to interact with the side-menus example at all; and in the nav bars and tabs example,

There is Yeti ( http://mth.github.io/yeti/ ), a JVM language from the ML family. I think it's close to a 1.0 release, and the compiler has been pretty reliable for a while now. I find it a delight to use.
