   I wonder about the etymology behind the term "jungle" here. Is it derived from the slang term that train hoppers and other people in hobo culture use for the temporary, makeshift residences they hold in the woods near train yards

   These these videos feel like they're following a script. Even the titles of all the videos are the same. "MMM Global Pays <amount>!"

   I'll throw in a vote for DMS. I use it at work to verify that our cron jobs ran successfully. Dead simple and very effective.

   The debate around sexual assaults on university campuses today seems to be a frontier for identity politics/gender warfare, and I am worried that this will have a dangerous, harmful kind of fall out.

   "Most people would consider something which amplifies bad traits to be a bad thing." This is only true if a thing _only_ amplifies bad traits.

   Somewhat off-topic: I have been looking for an ANSI art editor for the terminal (Linux or OS X). Anyone know of anything?

    I'll tell you one thing I don't attribute to being poor, and that's buying clothes from Banana Republic. I wonder how much of their total traffic comes during the work day, from office computers.

    That was my reaction to the article as well. In my perspective, the coupon is considered as optional information and is not shown on the mobile site for the obvious reason that it simply wouldn't fit. To me it reads like a conspiracy t

    Pygame is very fun to work with and it's so easy. I stopped using it for game development (switched to web-based HTML5 stuff) but it is still an amazing wrapper over SDL. I recently used it to write a quick version of an image evolver.

    The idea of programming the NES in C is still a little out there. People have made plenty of efforts in that area but it never seems to "stick." Seems to me like it makes the most sense to just go with 6502 if one is serious about

    This is totally off topic, but, if you don't mind sharing, what SSD did you get? I have the same Chromebook running Arch, but it has been idling since I got something else. I really want to upgrade it and start using it again.

    > Ignoring what other people think is cool. In the end, it really isn't though. It is a bad thing when subcultures are overrun by people who did not come to it organically. What I mean by that is at a certain point, members of a sub

    To me, this seems to imply that an important function of a bookstore is to provide a serendipitous experience.

    I expressed no opinion whatsoever on that issue. My comment was intended to be a kind of "-v" flag. Am I supposed to just know who the people the poster was referencing are? This is a discussion board. If you have a statement to m

    Flash isn't being removed by Mozilla. They have just placed a kind of "Are you sure you want to run this?" prompt on flash content.

    Woah! The author, Sabine Hossenfelder... I subscribed to her on YouTube because she writes some awesome songs. Didn't know about her blog. Check it out! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OUE9E1MxY2I

    So then the brain must have some kind of weighting algorithm to decide what memory of equal value to jettison. Surely learning a few new URLs poses no risk to remembering which kind of car you drive? And on the subject of memories, are all
