"git rebase -i" is what is commonly used instead of hg patch queues. You pass it the name of the last unchanged commit, and it opens an editor where you define what operations to do on it : fold commits together (fixup, like qfold), stop fo

It is satirical but very serious and definitely about real news unlike the Onion. In the past it has revealed quite a few scandals. This page lists them (in french, sorry) : http://fr.wikipedia.org/wiki/Liste_d%27affaires_r%C3%A9v%C3%...

Well, don't misunderstand me; I wish you the best for your future business! But to me it looks like bad means to an end. As an entrepreneur, I believe that you can get known through more classic initiatives. It reminds me of a french deputy

It seems to me that people are more interested into getting into YC than starting interesting businesses. That is probably because the selection process is selective and talked about everywhere, so getting in must be good, right? The truth

I have the feeling that choosing a configuration management system is very similar to choosing a build system. There are a few big players where it's easy to do easy things and possible to do complex things, but hacking with them is very ar

What I like with gitolite is that once it's run, you can create a new repository with custom permissions with only one commit in the "admin" repository. It is also not necessary to create users for your git users.

When I learned programming, getting arrays was one of my first "aha" moments. Moving from x0, x1, x2, x3 to x[0], x[1], x[2] was definitely enlightening. My guess is that for simple programs, you almost never have to index an array by a dyn

When you grow plants with no soil (only neutral substrate such as clay or gravel), it is necessary to provide extra nutrients (esp. nitrates) that are hard to dispose properly. In the case of vegetables or edible plants, it is also necessar

That is quite an awesome system ! I wonder how efficient this is. But it tackles the toxicity issue that exists with usual hydroponics systems. Here is another implementation : http://faircompanies.com/videos/view/backyard-aquaponics-diy..
