Except it's been touched repeatedly, and all changes revolve around selling various editions of what's surely a very interesting book..

I have websites with VCS repos that go back to September 1994. If you ran into Shaksperean insult generators or Escher art galleries back then, I probably still have the original web pages you saw. Some of the data is currently offline pend

Pedantically, it's not untouched; it has been modified as recently as 2007, according to < http://web.archive.org/web/*/http://www2.warnerbros.com/spac... ; The sorta changes made are interesting in their own ways. Things like the remo

I especially like the bit where someone else had embedded Mame with a pirated ROM as a "port" to a major console. Especially amusing if you read Mame's license, which includes: > MAME is free. The source code is free. If you paid for it

No, they have been assigned to RIRs, not ISPs. The RIRs have their own pools that they can assign to new ISPs.

I'm there, solar powered cabin, wood stove. Works great, my concentration is much better here. I couldn't hold to a strict time-based rule though. I prefer not to interrupt flow when I'm in flow. Anytime I get stuck I go chop wood or haul w

I have used nothing but some Dell Mini 9's for programming and everything else for over a year. It took some getting used to, and some significant customisation of my window manager, but I feel as productive with it as with anything previou

well, lack of that is why I left slicehost, but even EC2 allows custom kernels now. So a bit late, but glad people are seeing this as the important feature it is -- for quick security response if nothing else.

What's interesting to me is that this is done in Chrome, which has given eg, Adblock some trouble since it does not really allow extensions to change the page content, only hide parts of it. Would be interested in a technical look at how it

Delegation is of great interest to anyone who runs their own web site but prefers to not run their own openid server. (Won't touch the other trolling.)

Out of curiosity, what software do you use that still lacks support for ipv6? Most everything I use has been ipv6-capabable for years. Earlier this week iftop got ipv6 support, and so the last non-ipv6-capable software I use is rtorrent. Th

I wouldn't waste time clicking the "delete" button on everything in your wall. When I left facebook this spring, I spent an hour or so clicking that button hundreds of times.. then I ran Give Me My Data -- and it found the old, "deleted" w

Facebook uses openid to eg, allow users to sign in with a google openid when signing up for facebook. But as far as I know, Facebook is not an openid endpoint, you can't auth against a facebook account using openid. Happily, google is an

You know, early adopters tend to think about technology, and make choices such as not using facebook. You're likely setting yourself up for negative publicty from some person with a blog and a large following. Is it really worth risking tha

And there is a free version of the login widget StackOverflow uses. (Not quite the same code base, but more or less identical.) At http://code.google.com/p/openid-selector/ When I deployed a version of that on my sites, I got lots more ca

Anyone have experience with android's accessability UI? A blind friend showed it to me, and it seemed fairly impressive but with the major failing that the web browser was not accessible. Of course, the benefit of using android would be get

CVE-2010-2884 , like most prior exploits in flash, has the potential to let the attacker run arbitrary code. We're not talking javascript code either. BTW, anyone else think serving flash-based banner ads from untrusted third parties given

Get good at picking blackberries, with a hanging picker so you use both hands, and find or cultivate a bush with good, large berries, and you can pick that little $5 supermarket tub in about 5 minutes. Every day. :) I enjoy picking blackber

That one hour does not count time spent processing (picking, cleaning, cooking, storing) the yield from the garden, which has been at times this summer, 1 hour per day.

Well, the 100 square feet of tomatoes (about 75% cherry tomatos, which are very easy to grow, blight-resistant, and can be used in sauces, the rest slicing tomatos) that have taken over my backyard from 6 plants I set out this spring, right

I think Flattr is interesting and potentially worth using to the extent that it is disruptive. Note that you get to pay Paypal's fee too when sending money to Flattr. Best of both worlds. :P I think that the 10% may be currently justified,

Another area where it may be taking off is Free and Open Source Software. See http://raphaelhertzog.com/flattr-foss/ ; dpkg is currently in the top 5 most flattrd things.

Now, that's an interesting insight. In monetary terms, you have spent €2 on one flattr (with the option to add as many more as you like for free), and received 3 flattrs, which are probably each worth €0.10 to €0.50. But you won't even know
