Install the mentioned 4chanx extension. Hovering a quoted post ID will actually show the post, and you can also see/expand replies to a post in the top right.

It's also summertime, so there's plenty of summerfriends already. Remember to read the sticky at the top of the first page.

I use it with YARV all the time (usually with the "parallel" gem) to get a Nx speedup on easily parallelisable operations like processing a set of input files, sending HTTP requests to APIs using threadsafe cURL handles, and so on.

Can anyone post some examples of #3? The biggest thing I'm struggling with is finding a product idea I can even test against the potential market.

Legislation like this would be unenforceable at the scale the internet operates at, even in a small country. If I whip up a HTML5/CSS3 website over the weekend that does nothing to be accessible, is it still technically accessible? The ent

Linode's Fremont datacenter seems to have power outages every three months or so. I believe they're using HE's facilities as well.

5 and 7 series are legit. 3 series are for people who get their first six figure job, and college kids of well-off parents. In San Francisco, every 10th car is a 3 series. I wish I was joking.

It doesn't really matter if you're salting or not when you use really fast general purpose hashing functions. Consumer video cards can calculate half a billion SHA /MD hashes per second nowadays. You're talking minutes vs seconds. Una

Since? 10.04 systems hang after 200+ days due to a kernel bug. If you install the latest kernel, which addresses the issue, after 200+ days processes still no longer report any CPU usage. 10.04 itself was a joke.

Bro, you need to read this book: http://www.startupbook.net – http://www.amazon.com/Start-Small-Stay-Developers-ebook/dp/B... That mentioned 4-5 months will, statistically, be for nought if you don't do the important marketing/prep w

Rhode Island's last governor, Donald Carceri, was a lame duck when he set up the loan. The current governor, Lincoln Chaffee, tried to stop the loan when he took office, but it was too late.

Er, the latter! You almost never need to use and/or compared to how frequently you use &&/||. Sorry for the mistake.

This is absolutely not common knowledge. I have never seen an applicant use \A or \Z instead of ^/$. They typically also use and/or instead of &&/|| and potentially introduce subtle bugs into their code when the former would suffice
