I'm pretty sure it won't be the entire community. There are Linux users outside the US, you know.

The Galant series of IKEA desks are available in motorized form in Sweden, and I assume in Denmark too. They cost about $800. They don't seem to be available in the US though.

I see how rating helps with making playlists from your own library of already rated tracks, but could you explain how it helps with discovery of new artists?

If you have Premium, you can create your own ncurses interface with libspotify: http://developer.spotify.com/en/libspotify/overview/ Depending on the functionality you need, you can also use DBus with the native client. We implement parts

You can drag a playlist from iTunes and drop it on the "New Playlist" button in the left sidebar in Spotify. I don't know if it works with Genius lists, but it works with "Recently Played" and other dynamic lists.

You can add Spotify-users to your friends list too, you don't need to be Facebook friends. To add me, go to spotify:user:parbo or http://open.spotify.com/user/parbo and click the "Add Pär" button.

The ads are shown in an embedded browser (Safari on OSX), and they might use flash. The app itself does not use flash in any way.

I'm a Spotify dev. What sort of data would you find most useful to have extracted from iTunes? The reason we don't do the smart playlists is that we just take a snapshot (the lists aren't kept in sync) and the very nature of smart playlists

The 5 play limit doesn't start until after six months. So all new US users have unlimited plays.

There is also friend's playlists, which I find very useful to discover stuff.

About 5): In Scandinavia, Spotify is the largest single source of revenue for labels. Three times the size of iTunes. If the artists don't get money, they should take it up with their labels.

At Spotify, we have hackdays every sprint where we can do what we want as long as it is in some way related to Spotify, e.g. new client features, exploring new server thingamajigs or writing libspotify bindings for other languages. Finished

My dad had a Compaq laptop and an Ericsson cellphone in -93, and I got my first cellphone in -96 (I was 22). I've had broadband internet (not dial-up) since -97. Scandinavia was quite ahead of the curve when it came to cellphone adoption an

Ctrl-d (not Cmd-d) in every textbox in OSX does exactly what Ctrl-d does in emacs. There is no difference.

by parbo 15y ago
Ctrl+d is the emacs bindning for delete, itworks just about everywhere on OSX. I do agree with the general slowness (beachballs galore).

Does JSCtypes allow for js functions to be used as C callbacks, like Python's ctypes does?

Ink/toner subscription with free printer?

The article says it draws inspiration from younger languages, and mentions Python as an example. This is false, Python is four years older than Java.

Maybe Unity will finally drive me to start using a tiling window manager, like XMonad.

Yes, that seems strange. Does emacs handle gamma differently?

~$75k, but I'm in Sweden so there's plenty of money going directly from my employer to the government to cover pensions etc. It's really hard to compare salaries between countries. I suppose I also pay a lot more taxes on those $75k than yo

I made a database for my LP's (and maybe a CD or two) in Turbo Pascal on my dad's laptop. Yes, he had a laptop. It was a Compaq with a 386DX20 and a grayscale screen. I didn't really know any sorting algorithms so I came up with the world's

20. I often find these kinds of tests hard, since there is too little context. Do I enjoy parties? No, not if I don't know people. Yes, if i have some friends I'll be dancing on the tables.
