Thanks! I'll check that out.

Exactly our situation. I'd love to be able to build and deploy docker images, but the "docker is root" thing makes this impossible in our shop.

That's a fantastic idea! Unfortunately, I use JetBrains IDEs, so I have lots of ctrl-shift keychords I couldn't live without.

Cool! Interestingly, I'd seen a product on indiegogo that kinda answered one person's wish, so I tweeted it to them (so that idea is out :-) And no, I'm not gonna say what it was, I'd feel like I was product-spamming h

Nope -- I remap Caps Lock to control, and if I'm not careful I can wind up logged in with it stuck in caps mode, and no way to get lowercase characters without locking the screen, turning off all-caps mode, and logging in again. Lucki

Oh yeah. I think it's almost like there's a really active part of my brain that does programming... If I wake up in the middle of the night, if I start thinking about my latest project, bam, I'm wide awake and going back to

This is why I was so frustrated with a co-worker a few years back -- he set up his home directory to be unreadable, so I couldn't go look at his ~/bin directory!

I'm the same way about his paintings... I think it's genius. I got to see a large collection of his paintings at the National Gallery in DC a number of years ago, and... wow. In person they're astounding. Go see them "

Indeed... or the Go library fsm[1] based on javascript-state-machine. I thought I'd use them both in a game I'm building, but I'm leaning towards the idea that the UI state is just the state that's already in the server

Pretty cool idea (though I'd personally tone down the intensity of the yellow background, and use a higher contrast font color... whoever came up with the "black is bad" meme will be really sorry when they get older and their

Seconded. I've used RubyMine for years (at home and at work), just getting into Go, and finding GoLand by them is fantastic. Also tmux.

I remember trying to explain what was so cool about HyperCard when it first came out to non-nerds... and then having deja vu years later when I was trying to explain the internet, particularly since a lot of what I was saying about the net

This says it quite well. I'd just add that frequently someone will mention something, anywhere from some open-source project to some deep area of science, and the author mentioned, (who is already a member!) chimes in with clarific

I rode the cog railway up Pike's Peak a few years ago. If you EVER get a chance to ride the train documented here, or any other such train, BY ALL MEANS take it. The views are just spectacular. And, on a train, you're not distra

Well, at the very least that'll change how numer.ai works, if this passes.

Often, a good reviewer will give a good description of gameplay, and a good idea of how steep the difficulty curve is, how the game changes, whether it gets repetitive later on, etc. These things are really hard to get from someone doing a

No one said it was easy... I'm putting off a very sizable one at work (due to important functionality going in before FCS), and luckily, although it'll hit nearly every file, I can do them individually. My concern, actually, is ey

Just curious about your description of the Facetmobile as "impossible"... do you believe the video of it flying is faked?

I remember hearing this said about Lisp programming in the early 1980's. Specifically, there was a "tree-based" editor for InterLisp on the Xerox Lisp machines... I only ever met one person (hi Marty!) who even basically und

When I was going through "Learn you a Haskell...", and writing various programs with it, my first thought on the "$" operator (which basically lets you not parenthesize everything after it in an expression), was, "W

However, they do say: > leaning heavily on Haskell in order to fill in some of the gaps quickly. So it looks like they had to do some work to cover some features from rethinkdb/elasticsearch.

According to google, 300 hours of video are uploaded to YouTube... every minute . There's just no way to have humans moderate that. And if we assume they'd only decide on films where the ban was appealed, I'd bet it's

It's entirely possible that no new housing has been built in those areas for decades... and yeah, labor's cheap, but if there's no work in the area, that $10,000 roof is going to cost a lot less. Possibly relevant experienc

This is an amazing set of books (it's four volumes). Possibly, what I appreciate about it most is that he doesn't describe anything, like so many other SF authors do. You just have to figure it out ("read between the line

Whichever way you go, you're absolutely right to get what is correct for you, which (usually) requires digging on your own. Luckily for me, as I say, my eye doc recommended that layout.
