Interesting, but I don't base my Java logger strictly on performance. I prefer Logback for two simple reasons 1) single line log statements and 2) they show the thread name the log statement was generated in. This is by default, perh

Cool concept. I would change the phrase "Don't Play With Yourself" to "Don't Play By Yourself". It's semantics, but to me they have totally different meanings!

Hah! I have some friends who had some beautiful (copper?) gutter pipes installed at their house. The metal had a wonderful worn look to them. When I asked how they got it that way she replied that her partner had peed all over them for s

Why does it really matter if it's NY, SF, or anything in between? His SAD is due to a lack of sunlight and not cold temperatures. It also affects some people much more than others. I seem immune to it and don't miss daylight a

Agreed, I set up our dev team on Vagrant+Ansible+Github to ensure that we all have identical development deployment environments. Now pushing out configuration changes is as simple as doing a git push and telling everyone to pull and re-de

Indeed, I'm getting all nostalgic just looking at the artwork. Damn I miss Calvin and Hobbes.

I've used Stevia a few times, but am not a fan. While it's definitely sweet, it's a very different sweet compared to sugar. When drinking something (like coffee) with Stevia, I notice that it's sweet on a different part of my tongue, and

The site gives an Over Quota error. Can someone who's actually been there and read it over give us a summary?

Agreed. My wife is a huge gardener and I often get roped into helping her with a variety of tasks. Bed building, tilling, planting, weeding, watering, all of it! It's a very nice compliment to sitting my ass in an office chair 6 hours a d

One issue with that is that it doesn't expel older entries. The capacity specified in the constructor is just the initial capacity.

I successfully did the same for my wife, but I have some gripes about it: 1) The instructions were not complete! It only walked me through disassembly and attaching the new screen. I had to walk backwards through the instructions to get t

With such an open stack, could the Pi be used as part of a GPU password cracking cluster?

Please don't password protect PDFs for books. It makes it a huge pain in the ass to actually read. I'd much rather you do what the Pragmatic Bookshelf does and just embed our name into the PDF.

What's the point of 16MP anyway? I've been very happy with my Nikon D40 shooting at 6BP.

I wouldn't say that firearms are the only durable product. I recently bought a Jet Mini lathe, and every piece of it has a part number and can be reordered from the manufacturer. It was a lovely feeling to know that it's build to last.

Linksys also then released the WRT54GL, which used the same hardware/software as the original WRT54G, and could still run OpenWRT/DD-WRT.

I'm guessing it's a leading zero problem, since all US Zipcodes are 5 digits (or nine). Going to http://zip.elevenbasetwo.com/?zip=01010 gives the same response noted above.

I agree the site doesn't look that great, but I've been a happy subscriber for years. I prefer the "Chillout Dreams" and "Vocal Trance" channels over all the others. Using the higher bitrate streams coupled with a nice pair of AKG headphon

On top of that, I disable all password logins on every server I run. If for some reason I must get in and don't have access to my private key, I use a virtual console from my VPS provider to temporarily allow password logins and then immedi

I've been on Fastmail for at least the last 7 years and find it to be an extremely reliable service. I've probably used them as the MX for over 20 domains. I am migrating away from them however, because I've decided to consolidate all my h

Thanks for the guide! I've got 21 domains at Godaddy and I've started transferring the inactive ones as a test. Once I've got a feel for the process I'll start moving the ones that have DNS entries with GoDaddy as well.

Does anyone know of any existing hardware/gadgets/do-dadds or mainstream software that utilizes this MQTT? I've never heard of it until just now (which doesn't mean much, but it's new to me).

Can anyone speculate on the likelyhood of Apple getting such a ban enacted in the US? If it looks impending I want to order one before it happens.

I never understood that line of thinking. I have an wireless keyboard and mouse hooked up to my MacBook. When I hook up my external monitor I now have two screens, giving me more dekstop area than a single desktop. I don't see why anyone
