There are German IB resellers (e.g. CapTrader) who have slightly higher per trade minimums (2$) and commission (~0.01$ per share), but absolutely no monthly minimum. As I'm not doing trading, but only holding onto some Vanguard ETFs,

A sideline: stereoscopic rendering: I always wonder, why are they drawn for divergent view? (right plot: right eye, left plot, left eye). Convergent view (cross-eye) is much easier for large (full screen plots). Swapping both plots, (most

IIRC Common Lisp's asdf-install did use GPG signing from developers; IIRC-again, most people disliked it. Now quicklisp exists, which does _not_ use GPG; a quick google didn't reveal any info on package authentication. Maybe a l

Bostrom brought up the orthogonality idea before Eliezer, who consequently (not immediately) changed his mind. EDIT: I am unable to find the source. Might have been a halluzination, but I thought I remembered them having a discussion where

As a fellow Austrian I have to strongly disagree. Outside of the frequently-english-using circle (higher management positions, software devs, language students...), English proficiency is terrible. Generation 40+ more likely answers in Fr

Forget it, I was not used to JavaScript RegEx. I just looked it up on MDN, and it really defines `\w` to be very limited. Doesn't really make it any better, but whatever.

Just to make it clear: It does not even support the basic Latin-1 charset correctly. Matching my family-name requires manual intervention. This is sad. It seems a very nice regex page otherwise.

Xtend seems to be a very conservative, but sensible iteration on Java. Does anybody have some experience with it, knows some pitfalls, etc.?

I upgrade regularly, typically two weeks after release of a new version (except when there are security fixes, like recently). It could (and should) be more streamlined, I admit, but using diff et al. on the two affected configuration files
