America in a nutshell: bunch of smart guys make an amazing system that changes the world; bunch of politicians cheerfully destroy it in return for a quick profit. If Snowden's revelations weren't enough to ensure the rest of the w

I switched from bash to zsh some times ago, and miss it when it's not there.. but TBH, the only real difference for me is zsh can turn 'cd s/l/f/p[tab]' into 'cd some/long/file/path' -

A link on HN about improving bash and it wasn't instructions on how to install zsh. I'm pleasantly surprised :)

The English don't like any foreigners. We're not even particularly fond of the English. We're amazingly tolerant, living in peace when surrounded by people we don't like ;)

That's as maybe, but we hate the French more than Denmark &Sweden hate each other! :P

Being somewhat introverted, this means that I am my girlfriend, my cat, and my computer. (Not necessarily in that order :)

It's on HN because somebody submitted it, and it's on the front page because enough people up-voted it to get it there. That really is about as good an explanation as you're going to get :)

Far better: git commit -a -m 'Work in progress' Switch to other branch, do work on it. When you come back to the branch, git reset --soft HEAD^ It's far less volatile than stash, and far better at keeping WIP in the right pla

you don't need to make backups - git won't lose your data. I lost all hope that the article might be worth reading at that line.

The 'F' in PTFE (AKA Teflon) is Fluorine - Fluorine compounds are perfectly safe so long as they're correctly-handled, and they can be as inert as anything else.

I find it very naive that people think that they can solve the NSA/PRISM spying problems just by getting some laws changed. The NSA's activities are already probably both illegal and unconstitutional. The problem isn't that t

As credit cards have shown, people are very bad at making good decisions when they don't have to pay for them until "tomorrow"

Somebody needs to sit all the politicians down in a room somewhere and quietly point out to them that, historically, people have far, far more to fear from their own government than from any terrorist threat. "Our surveillance is justi

I call BS on this article. Tropical forests do next to nothing for global carbon fixation - they're about as far as you can get from "the biggest thing nature did" Ocean plankton is by far the most important place for carbon

I dislike rerere because it's very difficult to get it to stop remembering your mistakes. I've always found it causes more hassle than it solves.

I'd like to see said studies compare the damage done by exposure to porn to the damage done by exposure to sex-shaming religions. Such as the official state religion of the UK, Christianity. If porn has to be banned because it damages

Actually, E-voting could revolutionalize politics. Right now, we have to have presidents, prime ministers, even kings; making all the big decisions for us because that was the only practical way. E-voting makes it possible for the populatio

So it's better to pay less for an unreliable solution that sucks, than pay more for a guaranteed place at the top of the front page? And if your content "isn't at all desirable" then how is SEO going to help? "We ha

I've never understood the concept of black-hat SEO. If your site isn't worthwhile enough to be on the front page of relevant search results, why would you pay somebody to set up link farms and comment spam et al that might get

I'm particularly impressed by the way they've taken a tool that shouldn't be used for deployments; quoted the gurus who've said "don't use it for deployment"; and gone ahead with creating ways to use it fo

As a biologist, the "All GM is bad!" stuff drives me crazy. But you do yourself no favours by ignoring legitimate concerns. Case in point: Monsanto. Their notorious Roundup-ready plants have been GM'd to be resistant to herbi

primarily, if you come back to a stash a week later, other than your memory, what tells you what branch that stashed code belongs to? If somebody else needs to take over the project and pulls the branch, what tells him there's also st
