Copyleft licenses are more about the freedom of users in the future, instead of now. If all software was mit/bsd licensed, there wouldn't be any need for gpl as anyone could modify and redistribute any piece of software freely. Gp

It's not just reaching the bottom that's annoying, it's stuff like trying to search with ctrl-f for content that just isn't there yet or following a link, clicking back and the viewport jumping up to the top instead of w

Here in Finland all libraries seem to have a small shelf of weeded books free to take (or sometimes about 1-3€ each) next to the exit. I honestly thought it would be the same everywhere else.

Strange that they didn't mention the indiegogo campaign they have going on. 54% funded. Sadly, the only part of the armour as a perk is a prototype helmet at $25k. Campaign here https://www.indiegogo.com/projects/u

Why did you drop it (and what do you use now)? I used to use conkeror too, but dropped in favour of firefox + keysnail. As an emacs user, I just loved the conkeror ui. I left it because it lacked some firefox features, can't remember t

If your main text editor is vim, that's probably what you should do. It's hard or impossible to get a good feel from vimperator.

Not all attacks are perfect. It's true that an attacker can potentially do anything once in control of machines with sensitive data, but it doesn't mean that all hope is lost. If an intrusion detection system catches some x% of po

No tinfoil needed for the explanation: they're pretty fat targets with code security at the level of normal startups. It would be interesting to see how much they get targetted in comparison to startups that can at most spill some pers

The site isn't really clear on what this actually is. "More than just a VM" - so it's a vm? A linux distro geared towards hosting "cloud" services? All I can really tell is that it has (a few) apps.

It's not even that subtle, there's a lot more room and the extra dimension helps a lot in unscrewing yourself after filling the whole board.

The grandparents post was probably a play on the old "But does it run linux" meme from slashdot.

But the cool thing is that in many (most?) cases you can actually infer the type of reading from a string. You are going to do something with that value right? So you can say 1 + (read "1") and the compiler will know that you m

Maybe it's more of a handle pointing to the right? Most people are right handed so that would make sense.

Doing this too many times is really not a great idea. My machine started grinding to a halt _after_ I had killed the bash that was pumping out all the bangs. Reboot didn't fix it. Deleting my 2 gig ~/.bash_history did :)

I'm not sure what you expected. It's just saying it doesn't know how to print a function that takes as input a list of lists of type a0 and returns a list of lists of type a0. Try map reverse ["abc", "123"] instead, which it does know how t

I think the number of commenters fell quite dramatically after they stopped showing the score on comments. Before that HN felt like a much larger community.

The file seems to be a png with some html tags in it that trick the browser. Seems to work on firefox and conkeror but not on my chromium.

Many comments on HN have said that it's totally the opposite in Asia: people Hate yellow light and like the bluish light you get from cfl:s. So I guess you really can't make statements that broad.

My guess would be that rigging it to explode would be illegal (and very hazardous).

50% sounded like a lot to me so I checked wikipedia, according to which, most internal combustion engines have an average efficiency of 18-20%. So I guess it could be true if the Wave Disk Generator lives up to those promises. http://en.wi

I've been using an svn for this purpose. I can sync my password dp (and config files, project files, etc.) between my computers and n900 pretty easily. It's not quite as easy as a dropbox-type of synchronizer but it has some added benefits

Even thought it is free now, it's been sold the traditional way for a long time so I don't think it quite counts as a freemium game. Valve's already reaped most of the sales profits it's going to get from TF2.

But drm is not similar to a password the client doesn't know. In drm the client has to know the password, it's the user that's being kept in the dark. If you have total access (source) to the drm system you can always modify it to report th

I just pulled them off. They are attached with small plastic clips but luckily not the nasty ones that break. The fabric mesh under those also comes off just by pulling. You should probably be careful with pulling the ear pads, they are glu
