OP here. This is one of the reasons to mention Scala in the title. Not just Scala, but also an opportunity to learn frameworks like Scalatra. I was actually evaluating different Scala frameworks and stumbled upon this project as well as ano

YouTrack is neat. Keyboard shortcuts for everything, well thought out interface. And it is implemented in this new meta-language called MTS. MTS is a topic unto itself. Check out this for example: http://mbeddr.wordpress.com&#x2F

I like stash and have been a paying customer since last year. As far as I know, it is written in Scala too (the plugin API docs had a Scala flavour when I last looked at them). I especially like its Pull Request interface. It separates out

I am not the author nor have I tried it yet myself. Still downloading the war (yeah I am on a slow wire). But it's hugely appealing that 1. It's written in Scala. (A language I am familiar with) 2. It's packaged as a single

I also use this binding: bindkey "^B" history-beginning-search-backward You can type the start of a command and then hit Ctrl-B to search for similar commands in your history that had the same prefix.

I use both, simultaneously. I have 4 different Chromium profiles, and two different firefox profiles, with different levels of privacy / security. Each profile is also linked to a particular context, for example, a tab each for project

In the context of this discussion, GIMP wins. You (or a group of users) are "free" to create an alternative interface for GIMP. The rest of the features of GIMP are readily available to be integrated. The GP on the other hand is f

While the first picture of a typewriter that comes to the mind is an archaic, metallic, clunky one, the story doesn't really give more details to complete the picture. Perhaps the typewriters are noiseless, electronic ones, with a touc

Further to that, even "free" users make money for Google by reading ads published on their platform.

I am not sure whether _you_ have resolved to one understanding of entanglement yet.

Why do they never mention full specs on that page! Some of the Kindle devices don't have a compass and/or GPS. This leads to endless frustration with app users.

Yes, but as the same decent locksmith would attest, it would be foolish to have a picture of a key beside the lock, or anywhere in a public place. And that is what happens with a finger-print based secure system; you inadvertently place the

I am not sure why this is opposite of containers? Wouldn't it be possible to run a minimal POSIX OS inside a container? (genuine question, I don't know the answer to)

I am little skeptical of VMs but not so much that I don't see any benefit in it. In theory, VMs should help reduce the attack surface by a lot. For example, all the system calls in the VM are handled by the guest OS. The actual system

It would be nice to have a dropin JS library for CoralCDN too.

Adding a ppa introduces one more point of trust. That makes it not an easy option.

Look at it this way: If electricity was cheaper than oil/gas, then you wouldn't use an oil/gas furnace to begin with. So, an efficient lighting system is saving you money.

Yeah, human recipients and snoopers would both be able to filter out the poison. But it would make automated collection difficult. Another idea could be a reverse captcha. All messages by default could be coded as images. (Hey in fact I thi

The more I think about this, I am convinced that the only way to avoid private data snooping is to pollute / poison the data. If all channels of communication are flooded with poisoned messages, it wouldn't matter who / what

But regulations may lead to bribery and other workarounds. Activism may be biased. It may also lead to long-winded debates, and ultimately, to polluted information. (Eg, global warming, GM crops, etc). Ultimately, it doesn't matter if
