That's a really terrible analogy. Would you say the same thing about a desire to play chess or a desire to compete in the olympics? Would you say the same thing about a desire to write software? Heroin is pretty self-destructive, and y

Further Nitpick: Nowdays they don't use INT 0x80 for syscalls anymore. It's faster to use something called "virtual system calls" from what I understand (I am not a kernel dev, so don't quote me). It's just wha

I don't see binding arbitration as a bad thing as long as both parties are allowed to agree on an arbiter (I may have missed something, but I imagine that's always the case, and also the case here(?). ...Hell, maybe you could end

Size really gets to me. Don't get me wrong, I really like the Nexus 5, but I'm sick of phones that are borderline tablets. I ended up buying a Sony Xperia Z1 Compact (amami). It's damn near the same specs of a Nexus 5 except

Just curious, does it support 2FA for the web login and api key (or device keys, whatever google calls them) access for IMAP?

It will draw an X11 window if there is an X display. Unset DISPLAY and it will render in the terminal: $ DISPLAY= mplayer ... Updated command for clarity (might want to fullscreen your terminal with this): $ DISPLAY= mplayer tv:/

You're in luck: $ mplayer -vo caca my-movie.mp4

MPlayer can also do this. Something like this should work as an example: $ mplayer tv:// -tv driver=v4l2:width=640:height=480:device=/dev/video0 -fps 15 -vo caca

Incorrect. The kernel devs specifically cited the quality of the drivers when adding it to the taint list. Check the mailing list if you don't believe me. https://lkml.org/lkml/2011/10/6/317

Arch. But I've also had virtualbox crash on Debian testing. It's a mess.

The VirtualBox virtualization drivers have serious issues. They're written so poorly that they're notorious for causing kernel panics on linux. The kernel devs consider your kernel tainted if you load the virtualbox modules. I&#x2

I saw this a while ago and always thought it was interesting: I initially thought Knuth was an Apple fan after watching a few of his lectures, but apparently he uses his Macbook only for trivial everyday tasks. For every WM enthusiast here:

If it's referring to what I think it is, part of this is my fault and I feel I should give a post-mortem as well. There was a problem with marked (the markdown parser npmjs.org uses for READMEs) which allowed users to provide `javascri

I still can't figure why people feel the need to have an all-or-nothing opinion on cryptocurrency. Stross' article says: > Bitcoin comes with an implicit political agenda attached. I disagree. Bitcoin was always supposed to be

Just a note to the author if they are reading: you might want to remove that OSC code for inline HTML. There are reasons dynamic codes like those don't exist. Good reasons. (In my own naivete, I once thought an OSC code to access scrol

tty.js[1] works on windows (the backend is linked to the winpty library). I'd normally feel like I'm tooting my own horn by inserting this here, but it looks like the clientside part of Butterfly is a fork of my term.js[2]. I&#x27

Thanks. Speed was originally marked's top priority. I would say marked's approach takes advantage of the fact that v8 generates _extremely_ fast machine code for regexes. This is just something I discovered through many endless ni

I'll keep this as short as possible, but that's not easy. Speed: It's relatively slow (but fortunately faster than markdown.js at the very least). Quality: It carries with it a bunch of nonsensical quirks. Some of these quirk

Flattered to see it using marked for the markdown engine. Maybe the world is finally ridding itself of showdown.

Some terminals support ACS (with SCLD) but not unicode. It might be better to use ACS: $ hr() { printf '\e(0'; printf 'q%.0s' $(seq $(tput cols)); printf '\e(B'; } Same thing, but potentially more port

termcoin uses the bitcoind json-rpc api[1] for (nearly) everything (which means the same wallet.dat file, the same encryption (aes256-cbc), etc.). What I mean to say is, the bitcoind api is a bit limited with regards to how it can manage a

It's a bit tough to deal with this since javascript doesn't offer any real way to zero a string's memory. The way to do this would be to read from stdin directly into a Buffer object (which is malloc'd separately from th
