No arguing that working on setuptool to improve it would have been better but the thing is that Phillip (setuptool) hasn't been cooperative (to say the least) and Tarek ended up forking. At least that's how I remember it, so in that light,

Where could I learn more about that stack ? I knew about Virtuoso and DBPedia not about a Freebase cartridge.

I disagree. You're focusing on recreational drugs, but the performance drug market might be smaller but significantly richer. During years EPO wasn't detectable by anti-doping testing. Correct me if I'm wrong but I think it requires cutting

Ok, but then maybe you'd want a small and cheap cluster gather knowledge on cluster deployment and management. I am sure interested in the type of stuff. I guess you will hit scale problem sooner on an underpowered motherboard. What do you

If I am not mistaken it's not the first time Skype send a DMCA to this project. But given where the autor lives, the DMCA does not apply so it doesn't go anywhere.

I was under the impression that Google Mpas for android was vector rendered since honeycomb. Am I wrong or/and are they somehow cheating in some way ?

Yet mod_redis seems more complete than Webdis. Hopefully competition will help pushing both further. There also is a nginx module compatible with redis2 protocol : https://github.com/agentzh/redis2-nginx-module

Quite nice indeed. Someone to give us a hint on whether this is completely hand made or build with some tool/app ?

MessagePack looks quite interesting ( http://msgpack.org/ ) and seems to have quite a lot of binding (I don't the support level on each one though)

The donations campaigns propel the growth of Wikimedia Foundation. Less than 50% is really directly dedicated to wikipedia website operation. Quite an overhead IMO. With 117 employees and $30 million budget, they can manage I think. They¡ll

Well for a verbatim search of map(call()) I wouldn't expect google to filter out parenthesis. More than ever now that code search is dead. "map(call())" would work either. So much for verbatim ...

Well, it is only pushed by RedHat (hence the adoption by Fedora only) so progress is slow. But steady I'd say. There are patch for a lots of server and SystemTap seems compatible with Dtrace entrypoints so I guess the thing now is to docume

I admit I skimmed through the article, but, "git destroyed my data" .. hum ... how come ? Git is a versioning system that doesn't free you of making backups of your central master. And by master I mean the global central reference repositor

Really glad that you guys now release and than announce ! the best way to avoid the let down of ending not opening something announced earlier (whatever the reason). Keep the trend going !

I think you misunderstood me. I was referring to Symbian in the 90s, at its popularity peak almost everyone was using a licensed Symbian. Not that I agree with the model but it once hasn't a reality of the mobile phone market. As for the op

Well it's not like it's an unknown situation. It's more like going back to Symbian licensing situation a few years back.

Following the Sega path would not be a good idea IMHO. They would be like you said one game editor among many, wouldn't have control over the platform and loose intimate knowledge of the system games runs on. And last but not least, they'd

Not a problem you have to be sorry about, it happens. But the thing here is that announces like that implies expectation. So, IMHO, you shouldn't announce to much time ahead and announce when you know for sure there will be an actual releas

I'll believe when I see it. Not that twitter never open some of it's code ( http://twitter.com/about/opensource ) but ... in the past they've said they'll open some tools and end up not doing it (I'm thinking about Crane here). It's nice to
