   I'd change the headline. It's a bit easier than pastie for anonymous non-code text, but "awesome note-taking" requires more IMO.

   Off-topic, but I was curious what "hrirachu" meant in english, and now I'm just incredibly impressed by DuckDuckGo: https://duckduckgo.com/?q=hrirachu http://www.google.com/search?q=hrirachu

   I would strongly advise against hunting and pecking. Print out the Dvorak layout and place it next to your computer, put your fingers on the home row, and type. Doesn't matter how slowly---it's important to make the correct finger press the

   I don't have a problem using QWERTY on my iPhone---I think it's because thumb-typing is different than 10-finger typing. I do get frustrated by iPads though (I don't have one for this reason, though the new one is tempting).

   This: > The issue isn't about speed, it's about comfort. That's an important point. Sure, (I think I read somewhere that) the touch-typing champion uses Dvorak. However, I don't think that I type any faster after 2 years of Dvorak---I j

   That's interesting. I actually appreciate that certain shortcuts become two-handed. The proximity (on QWERTY) of X, C, and V to the left ⌘ key promotes a cramped, claw-like chording that is antithetical to the purpose of Dvorak (ergonomics)

   A lot of the comments on the original post suggest that keyboard shortcuts are an impediment to adoption. I type in Dvorak, use Vim with hjkl (actually, jkhl, which I find easier because vertical movement is on my left hand and horizontal o

   That is how Github wikis work. Don't have my laptop here, but I think the tab/link is "git access"

    Yeah, just drawing attention to the "rigorous discussion" (hand waving).

    "Backwards Compatibility The maintainer (and original author) of Mercurial, Matt Mackall, is a strong proponent of backwards compatibility, which is important when you’re choosing a version control system that you plan to rely on for a long

    Too bad jotform.net is also registered via GoDaddy. Should we be talking about registrar diversification now?

    Seems to me you don't have enough information to declare "Hireable: false." I don't have much of a github presence. I am hireable.

    Regarding EchoSign, can you explain the complaint that you cannot control the signing date? If that means what I take it to mean, OF COURSE YOU CAN'T. It would be antithetical to the idea of reliable electronic signatures to allow a party t

    I would use the business name that you want—so what if your URL is "the_____.com"? See also basecamphq.com, getdropbox.com, ______app.com, &c.

    This is an important point for the uninitiated: Tor is anonymous, but not secure. Only send data if (1) you do not care if it is intercepted, as long as (2) it can't be traced back to you.

    Fine article, but if the goal is legitimacy in the design community, make sure not to misuse terms. Kuler and colorlovers.com are great resources but they probably won't teach you anything about color theory . Also, white balance does not

    Utility is relative to curiosity. A butcher might be interested in animal husbandry, but maybe they just want to cut steak. To a Rails dev, this is all "what happens to the cow before it's steak" stuff.

    Of course at $1/15m/test, a battery of tests is practically built in to the price. If the instructions are to "take three cards and put a drop of blood on each," and that it isn't a positive result unless all three agree, you've solved that
