Happy to see the Resume is based on ConTeXt, my favorite typesetting system. The developer is a friend of mine. Loooong time ago I've started http://wiki.contextgarden.net to collect information about ConTeXt.

Agree. I have some complex code that I revsit once in a month, and I cannot afford thinking though it again and again. Therefore my comments are getting larger and larger and more chapter like with many images inbetween. (I use locco for th

That's true. I used to be an emacs fanboy (1) until one day came along textmate with snippets, tabs and "sub major modes" (don't know how to call 'em - take for example php inside html or such). Then I switched to s

90% of my knowledge is in a bunch of text files handled by nvalt [1], a fork from notational velocity [2] It is so convenient and quick to make notes and hyperlink notes between them and do full text search. [1] http://brettterps

I really can't support this claim. I have a repo of 111GB now and it works ok. Not slow at all (unless you do git gc or something like that).

I doubt that the FBI (or any other US authority) is allowed to operate in any state outside the USA. Similar with all other countries.
