Yes, you need a karma of 200+ to be able to downvote. Reached that just a few weeks ago. You can only downvote comments which were made after you reached the treshhold.

I rememember there was someone on HN working on that a few years back. There was a nice discussion around it. I can't find the thread, perhaps someone else has better luck?

Make a serious attempt in switching to vim for everything. Print out some cheatsheets and have them on the wall next to your monitor. There are also quite a few vim threads on HN which might be of interest to you. It took me about a week to

ratpoison was my first tiling wm. i remember how it made me feeling like a total newbie =) its lack of a floating mode (needed for gimp and others) made me switch to more advanced wms though.

Used it before I switched to awesome. Suckless stuff is always neat.

The problem I have with awesome is that it likes to make you write new configs every other release. That's why I'm still stuck with a fairly old version. Now that they kicked xcb out of cairo (which awesome needs) which resulted in awesome

Just the important ones: BetterPrivacy (LSO Cookie Remover) Firebug (+ Firecookie) Hackbar NoScript Tree Style Tab Web Developer Toolbar All of which have no (satisfactory) Chrome equivalent and thus prevent me from switching ;)

No TV here, threw it away about 5 years ago, never looked back. You can waste enough time on the internet if you want to do so.

I agree. But a "couple thousand" are probably not an option if you're bootstrapping. Such templates might just work until you can invest in a custom one.

Yawn, just the usual Microsoft FUD. I don't even bother to read it anymore. Take it as a lesson to learn to smile about it ;-)

To clarify, September 15 will be our open-source developer release. At that time, we will open up our github repository, publish our roadmap, and shift our development style to be more community oriented. We intend on launching a consumer

The Wire was an awesome show, probably one of the best I've ever seen. Some characters, like Felicia "Snoop" Pearson, were casted right from the streets. Highly recommended to get a less romanticized view of the streets.

I guess dropbox works for most people because it's so easy to use and just fixes their specific problems (of keeping files in sync, quickly sharing them via url, etc). Me, personally, I use Google Apps for emails and documents and so, natur
