I cycle every day in the city and so in certain areas it's common to cross paths with pigeons or other birds. I've noticed that regardless of whether the bird was walking or already in flight, if their path is perpendicular to min

I'm actually amazed that almost every time I go to the Genius Bar for service, there are people paying ~50% of purchase price on repairs for their Mac/Book/Pad/Pros instead of refusing service and buying something new. G

I agree that they could reduce consumption and make life easier by consolidating connectors and not screwing around with those already established. However, in my experience whatever I buy from Apple tends to last longer and I definitely

I was trying to figure out why it needed an installer instead of just an app– is it just to initialize $LUNA_HOME and run the telemetry ( http://www.luna-lang.org/alpha-data.html )?

Not too hard but will require some patience and up front cost. Things you'll need: - Curtains/plastic to seal off light in your bathroom ($10-30) OR a darkroom bag ($30) - Universal film tank w/reel for 120/220 film ($30

I live in a 3BR which is currently around $2.5k/month in beautiful Brooklyn just minutes from the A, C, and G trains. Next week I'll hear back as to whether or not I also have a $1k/mo studio with yard in a well-kept brownsto

Github Gists are close enough to what you describe sans the interactive rebase. You can create multiple files at once, all edits made in the web interface are committed to the repo, and all of it can be cloned and used with "real"
