Nope, T3400 - generations younger & faster. Btw I remember browsing the web with early versions of Netscape on X console of an i386sx server which at the same time had dozens of irc-and-whatever-doing users. The browsing experience was

When a loader itself takes about 80-90% of cpu time, i kill it and don't visit the page again.

Btw I always thought emailing a password back is just a habit from the past emerged with thousands of quick-n-dirty php apps in late 90s and this meme is copied till today "because others do it", and surely it's not any thoughtful applicat

Wow they developed new backend. They really generate lots of interesting code..

It's true that average Clojure code looks cleaner than average CL code. Still I'm looking for something more cleaner, still being a Lisp. Time for Arc maybe :]

Yeah I always liked PG's argument, he's using macros in a very powerful way building bottom-up lots of valuable code. Still succinctness doesn't seem to apply to CL usual practices and Clojure seems to have this legacy inherited (actually,

Wolfram learned to like it in the process..

Actually I never took the argument 'avoid macros unless absolutely needed' seriously. Macros are sexy and fun to code. The ease of writing macros in a syntax-less Lisp is ubercool. And programming should be fun, right? I code in Ruby using

No intention to bash Clojure - it's a wonderful platform & community. But... I recently switched back to Ruby from Clojure. It was rather pragmatic - i'd love to experiment more, but I needed to use some libraries I knew very well; also

Actually having a cash buffer and paying with it is quite healthy habit. You get this understanding after a while though, for me it was past 30.

This is a take I found on modern Buddhism view on science http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bhmaK4Q19RY Though it's only a few minute spot directed rather to non-tech people, it scratches the surface.

capitalize, chomp are non-destructive contrary to their "bang" counterparts: capitalize!, chomp! Lots of methods are non-destructive and it's cleaner to use them instead of artificially calling dup().

Programming, just like everything else, is what you believe it is, what you put your energy in when you're thinking of it or dealing with it. You (and everyone else) are creating your own world. Have fun with what you create..

Hey I don't get it. What's the value of reading news at AlJazeera?

Yeah taking from $EDITOR would be great. I use emacsclient extensively and $EDITOR is set differently wrt to context. As a temporary solution I have a monkey patch as shown here: http://github.com/jberkel/interactive_editor/issues/2

Yeah that reminds me of recent ismycreditcardstolen.com story. They wanted to warn, they ended up accused of phishing themselves. Looks like spreading distrust is a double-edged sword (not that I don't share authors pov on Facebook; I do)

I don't know why the first person downmodded you, but I did it too. What kind of information is too less for you here: http://status.heroku.com/incident/44 ? Would you like to have an exact scenario what happened? Most users, esp. the kin

Even if you switch off the bloats like Gnome or Kde, I guess the most resource hungry stuff is still your web browser which you inevitably use. Firefox is not lightweight anymore. I wonder what would it be if you used Google Chrome in your

I like the general idea of making stuff which makes people spending less time at a computer, not more. Like giving the information they need and can use in daily life. This approach excludes working on most social network stuff or things

Good strategy, but there's a catch: when you expect that taking off will boost your productivity afterwards, it won't work. This is general rule in life: if you stick to expectations you loose.

It shows commits in a similar way as gitk but works in a console. Well I never could visually parse the output of git show-branch, so the above is really nice.
