And this is why I use emacs. The fact that it is even possible to write a video editor that runs in it means that I will be able to edit files as I please, as efficiently as I please.

Via: http://www.ibm.com/developerworks/aix/library/au-spunix_squi... I think I'll play around with this over the weekend (well, if I have time for it), seems like it could come in really handy.

Yes. I'd go so far as to say that it's inevitable given enough time.

He doesn't need to value their thoughts, he just needs to be potentially affected (financially or otherwise) by their perception of him, which could be heavily influenced by seeing the title My Life in Child Porn

Because everybody is already used to telling time in a certain way, and doesn't want to take the time to learn a new one, put in the effort to learn a new one, or deal with the initial wave of missed meetings and general confusion that woul

Exactly - that's (one of the reasons) why systematic and disciplined inquiry is important.

Could that be because you exclude Windows hackers from your definition of "hacker"? No, it couldn't. The person out of the group of people that I know personally that I consider "hackers" uses Windows primarily, and knows a bunch of crazy

Every "hacker" I've met either: Doesn't use windows. Uses the tools listed in the article on windows. (well, windows equivalents anyhow) I think the message was more of "Know your tools, know them well. Know them, and what they are capable

Yes, I do (although I just ended up in a new country, where I haven't figured out where to get any yet). I don't smoke a lot of it, and quantifying the benefits that I receive from smoking marijuana is a bit difficult because they're rather

You'd think they would give a little more weight to the group, considering that the users of TPB are a good chunk of the internet-using population of the world.

I do think that the necessity of what the article talks about varies from project to project - but it strikes close to home in reference to my current project. I'm working for a client doing something like centralizing a whole lot of decent

He said he wanted to focus more on music than code. I think he's doing pretty well for himself. Also, he can absolutely code - and the code of his that I've looked at has been pretty awesome on all accounts.

He dropped the tough-guy stuff a bit ago, admitted to creating said persona for (more-or-less) the purposes of trolling, and announced that he would be acting a lot more serious in the future.

I'm no economist, but from a level-of-the-average-american perspective, this country has had an entire culture based around living ridiculously outside of your means for the last few decades - at least in the middle to upper-middle classe

Look, I don't know if you're drunk, or if you just want to argue, or why this is so important to you, but I'm done arguing this. If you seriously think that we haven't changed our theories of evolution since Darwin, there's not much I can d

Alright. I said " De volution is a nonsense concept" because, as I stated before, what is referred to by "devolution" is just evolution. The term, as used commonly, implies some sort of objective heirarchy to evolution, and although organ

I suggest you read the wikipedia link? The terms higher and lower are, as far as I understand, mostly just there for classifying the amount of complexity present in an organism - there's not some "these organisms are better than these oth

I'm confused as to what you think the term higher mammals or higher animals has to do with the term devolution . http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Devolution_(biological_fallacy)

De volution is a nonsense concept.

No. People need to stop asking this. As far as I understand it, evolution is not a thing that stops. I am significantly annoyed at the propagation of stuff like this. It's like this horrible catch-22 where such a small amount of the populat

This is exactly the reason that I turned down equity-only offers while I was freelancing after being on the down-and-out for a while. I was not in a financial situation where I could work for equity, I had bills to pay, and barely enough

Well sure, but it seems to me that if someone is already competent in haskell, or has done some serious networking work on their own, then they've already demonstrated that they're worth hiring, and that they'll probably be able to work wit

Yes. I currently am working on a web-app using cherrypy for my client, who has some small knowledge of PHP. He's a great guy, and I love working with him; however, he likes to make suggestions, normally involving some way he could implement

Exactly - 90% of the regular expressions you (or at least I) use in Perl are going to be fairly simple. They'll look like cryptic nonsense to someone who is not familiar with regexes, but be immediately obvious to someone who uses them oft

People who say Good programmers are lazy are obviously using the word in a different context than what the author of this article is talking about. She even mentions this. She then proceeds to say that it's a "cry for attention", like a s
