Very interesting. This could be a simple low-tech alternative to Facebook groups and such, given that not everybody has a Facebook account. Conversely not everyone has a Gmail account either. Do people who join a zeromailer mailing list nee

Having studied at the same university (though not with either of the professors), I can confirm that both teachers are respected professors and experts in their fields (logic and the philosophy of science). I'm sure it'll be an in

I, too, would appreciate an invitation. Apropos of this thread, it would be great if lobste.rs could support collapsing subtrees of comments.

Of course, most of these are far from being synonyms of "therefore", whose function is to express that the following sentence is a logical consequence of what was said before. The following are real substitutes: Hence; So; E

I'm not sure if you are being facetious. However, on the assumption that you are serious, there is no reason to think that more arms would have helped the minorities in Germany persecuted by the masses. The groups targeted by the Nazis we

The use case is totally different. Say I'm a professor and I'm writing a grant proposal. I send a draft to a PhD student to proofread. Today the only practical way to do this is to use Word's "track changes" tool. Basically, a proofreader (

I second the advice by Mark Bittman, the "minimalist". A small kitchen does not need a stand mixer (though a food processor is useful to make Indian food, among other things), and certainly not an ice-cream maker.

Aptitude is no longer pre-installed in current versions of Ubuntu (and Debian). Also, aptitude used to be recommended over apt-get because its handling of dependencies was superior and because it made it easier to find "orphan" packages. As

I liked this example: http://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:Great_Feeling.ogv . It also showcases the subtitles feature of the player. It didn't play the first time I tried it (current stable Chrome on Ubuntu) but reloading helped.

Well, what you can do is boot from a live usb stick, mount your drive, move /* to /old/ and install afresh. If everything works as desired, you can move back your /home/user directory or selectively get your home directory back. If you don'

I agree, this is wonderful news! Other than certain rough edges, battery life is about the only respect in which Linux lags behind its competitors that matters to me.

The new favicon is a white letter "g" on blue ground. If anyone, like me, is wondering, you can initiate a "hard refresh" by holding down shift while clicking on the reload button in Chrome (or, I assume, Firefox). Doing so circumvents all

The author is doing it wrong. Although the illustration is presumably inspired by the Pythagorean theorem, one robot thinks about the formula "a<sub>2</sub>..." rather than "a²..." and the other about an equilateral rather t
