I have a couple of the Amazon cheapies that I use for checking temperatures when brewing -- it's totally awesome to check the temperature of heating mash water from across the room. The laser also came in pretty handy for entertaining the m

If someone is inside your house just lock yourself in the bathroom, head low in the bathtub, and call the police. Great idea! My kids can fend for themselves!

That's not fair to Github, IMO; service providers have next to no discretion in DMCA issues.

sigh Not this again. From the images we've seen side by side, it is not a copy of someone else's work. The artwork is not identical, and is not similar enough that you have to say "they just took a copy of the artwork and altered it a

I have yet to see any evidence that the Flat UI folks violated any copyrights. It doesn't look like the Flat UI guys made verbatim copies of any of LV's art, nor does it look like they took LV's art and altered it to hide its origins. It

Sure, we all do, but there's a difference between using something because it is the best tool for the job, and using it because "we use hammers for everything around here."

I'll go one better -- I'm not going to shop around at all next time I want something NewEgg has.

Ironic that the post just before that on her blog is about dealing with the assholes you will likely encounter in Open Source.

Irrelevant here -- the 6-month deal has been made public by other sources.

I'm not sure I agree 100% with your police work there. I am enrolled in the class, and when I got the e-mail, my first thought was "Great. Now I have to worry about whether or not my work will look too similar to someone else's, or to the

Plain old Cuisinart drip machine with built-in grinder. I can put beans and water in the machine before retiring, and the whole thing can start up while I'm waking.

"The idea that "only the latest edition will work for this course" is another of the textbook publisher's little schemes. I'm sure they try to get faculty to use only the latest editions." When I took thermal physics waaay back in the 80s,
