You should have watched the LCA talk where Tridge explained his reverse engineering. He telneted the bk server and typed 'help'. It gave him a list of commands, and what they did. LWN article on it: http://lwn.net/Articles/132938/

SD (Simple Defects) is more choice when I can. Distributed and works pretty well, and not too complex.

The only issue with w3schools is it is basic. Otherwise it covers a lot of material fairly well. At least it's not wrong, like many other resources.

For the past 10 I've _only_ used linux as my desktop. I was using it pretty frequently before then too. So my answer would be: If your potential employee refuses to work on Linux, or Windows, or OSX or NeXT or whatever... you probably don'

I believe the update of keys relies on the secrecy of the master key, which is never released in a device. Hence the master key pretty much kills it all.

The Register covered it a) better and b) earlier. http://www.theregister.co.uk/2010/08/25/commodore_name_bounc... And it has the story of crazy commodore name lottery. Older stories linked in article.

Yeah: Business jargon. Whenever a PHB tells you they are a rock star or a wizard you know they _may_ know how to use a mouse.

Why do you want to sell it is one of the first questions a buyer should ask, or at least find out an answer for. After all there are lots of reasons to get out: - Patent lawsuit incoming - google/apple just entered the market - Fut

Depends on why it was blocked. Generally speaking if it's because of a local competitor (eg youku or renren (vs youtube or facebook)) I would not hold my breath.

Superman designed his own suit, and except for the underwear placement, and the cape (darrrling), it's... Actually come to think of it, you were right in the first place.

It may be slow, but the process for comics and articles are quite different. Comics go through multiple layers of distribution (possibly translation, colouring, lettering and the like through multiple hands) before they are published, in m

Not sure what features komodo has for completion, but between the built in omni-completion in vim 7, it's pretty powerful which will complete on symbols in all loaded files and in things like header files. That's activated by Control-X Con

If you are using :make, and _don't_ jump out of the file (split the window if you need to jump out), line deletions and additions down the window are automatically accounted for. As for turning it on or off, I've never had too, unless it's
