fuck's sake - first off, this article is terrible. Here's a great quote : "advances in antibiotics (no more worries about what used to be called venereal disease)" Are you kidding me? HERPES you can get it with a condom, genital warts and o

I've thought about doing that myself. I've been thinking about what it means to bring in users 0-100,100-500,500-1000 and so forth... I guess I would like to try bringing in non-technical people as users first.

my point was basically exactly what you've said - except for the second paragraph. I was pointing out that the original word is spelled googol so they copied the bit that is unique to google, I'd say yeah they are done get a new name

That's pretty outrageous if the claim in the paper is true - this is a really common problem that I ran into as an undergraduate doing modeling to fit bacterial conjugation rates to differential equations for predator prey dynamics.

I've often heard this argument regarding security and I always have trouble with it. It's really not that much trouble to scam someone and it's actually rather fun... I think people often operate in a kind of need based mode, they get it in

honestly, there was no thought of google when you decided to suffix your names with "oogle"? The actual spelling of the word is http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Googol so you just happened to choose the bit of the word the misspelled...

I don't do structured touch typing, I learned to read on a computer (early for my age, an old atari) and typing is more natural than writing. When I was in college, I used to do medical transcription and I peaked at about 120WPM with an acc

On one of my consulting engagements, I met this guy who decided to try to raise his kid speaking klingon. The kid just showed no interest in it whatsoever, even though that is all that dad spoke to him for 2 years. I think a natural languag

an analogy... Man, writing poetry is hard. It takes me 2-3 weeks to write a haiku and months to write a sonnet. Language doesn't matter for writing code any more than it does for writing poetry. You need to specify a lot more details before

Overall, very nice essay. I think you probably could have trimmed it down just a touch more. imho, there are multiple things going on here : reviewing a speech or revising an essay, even just in your head, is actual productive work and shou

We should scrape this and provide archives in P2P so that the information isn't lost and hopefully they will do a similar spray of unreleased docs if they go down. I'll have a look for existing documents tomorrow.

I used to do this and I have mixed feelings about it. On the one hand, stress on my legs seemed better but my feet ending up hurting a lot after a while. I found comfy running shoes worked out best. Of course, I have a slightly abnormal bon

I've had 9 and 10 running on linux for years without a single problem, always fast and pixel to pixel identical with windows and mac? Maybe the problem is not the VM but the manner in which it is installed?
