I resubmitted this because I'd love some feedback. New blog and first Clojure program of any substance. Sorry if you're on mobile—I know the styles need some work on some sizes.

Deactivating is designed to leave your account intact in case you change your mind. In fact, some people use this as a super-logout, deactivating their account when not using it. If you want to truly delete your account, the best way to exp

I found the pragmatism and sense of deferring until the least responsible moment—especially the speaker's view of what that moment is—very interesting. In the Q&A "What do you use for configuration management?" "<

Yep. Especially when you consider that things like RabbitMQ, Riak, ejabberd, etc. are written in Erlang and take advantage of OTP.

They really know the hardware/manufacturing side. You'll get a good lock from them. It's standards based, and those standards (e.g. z-wave) take into account power requirements, meshes, and security. I worked on their web app

Asked his prediction on what the stock market would do, J.P. Morgan responded: "It will fluctuate".

I don't think so, looking around at my peers. In the US, you have the right to publicly funded counsel if you are arrested, so the advice might better be put, "Am I free to go? <no> Am I under arrest, or am I free to go? &lt

Sorry, I should have been clearer: they are predominantly white. When I was last in each country, I didn't get any real sense of deep hatred of each other. Though there was some seemingly good natured ribbing about who was better at e.

I don't see how this adds to the conversation. Also, Argentina and Uruguay have similar racial composition & as far as I can tell see themselves as the same people of the Rio Plata.

If you have a reasonably good+fast test suite and you integrate often, this isn't a huge deal. Just run your tests after using rebase. If you have a failure, having a straight-line history makes it easier to do a bisect with your faili

I don't think it's exactly money laundering. It's like all theft. At low enough risk, the thief doesn't care what percentage of the value (of the $ charged) they recover. In this case, they are running very large CPU (no

I also saw this in the wild today on a friend's aws account. Same instance size. Spot at $2. Just one instance fortunately. The security group permitted SSH from three /24 netblocks.

Thank you. I also learned ruby with the ruby koans and was lucky enough to meet him through our local ruby community and eventually end up working with him. His other free and open-source educational work was git immersion: http:/&#x2

Posting this here because I thought the many people who posted here, on github, and on twitter might want to know that there is a scholarship fund being started in Jim's name to help pay for CS education. The fund is being administered

I'm going to assume that this is parody? Poe's law and all. I know folks of various genders who love & find emacs sexy.

by jambo 13y ago
I'm friends with the person who made emacs.sexy, and that no doubt was an influence. He loves emacs & wants to share it with the world (while vim.sexy clearly has a big element of parody to it). I'd forgotten about the awesome

My experience was it was a lot easier to learn than various linux distros, at least several years ago. It has great documentation in the form of the Handbook, and its directory structure & the ports system are rational & predictable
