And if you use some of the lightweight window managers (Awesome, XMonad, Ion), they've all pretty much decided that the Windows key is the modifier to use for all window-manager shortcuts. Every app gets to use Ctrl & Alt however they l

I live in Boulder, and I'm looking for a new dentist. I know which one I won't be checking out.

I'm the original author and current maintainer of DataMapper's migrations. I had a reply written up, but it ended up being really long, so I wrote a reply blog post instead. I'm not trying to drive traffic to my blog, because I don't care,

Doesn't seem to work in Firefox 3.0.6 on Linux, strangely enough. I get: Firefox can't find the server at www.%e2%9e%a1.ws.

So in Rails best-practices, you'd still have 3 "languages", they'd just be spread around in 3 files. I'm a Haml fan, so I'd have a view template like: = paginate(@employees) %ul - @employees.each do |employee| %li =

I'd like to know, too. We use CentOS 5 for servers, and I hate it because anytime I want to do anything interesting, we have to compile stuff from source to get anything recent enough. (Ruby, Git, etc...)

I googled without luck, but I remember reading a study awhile ago that demonstrated that Imperial is easier for a human to estimate. Of the the experiments was asking for people familiar in each to guess the length of some objects. The peop

I was just wondering the other night what it would take to come up with a js/canvas-based windowing toolkit. This looks pretty sweet.

He (or his close cohorts) probably did the same thing. You would just be an additional distraction, to make it harder to narrow down the main culprit.

A great many "pro" gamblers believe $50s to be bad luck. Try going to a craps or blackjack table with some of the seasoned vets, and lay down a couple $50s. Several of the other players will leave.

It never really happened here (Boulder, CO). A couple of the big guys with offices here (Sun, IBM) laid off a few hundred, and all the engineers and tech guys were snatched up immediately. We've been looking to hire for 6 months, and have y

I have an old MP3 player that has a volume control, play/pause and skip in the earbud wires that go to a 3.5mm jack (but the earbuds have a 4-conductor plug). Also, the 4-conductor 3.5mm doubles as the USB port for uploading songs to it. Yo

To futher contort the analogy: You're not reinventing the wheel; you know its supposed to be round an roll. Instead, you're changing all the internals to be a better fit for what you need. Wagon wheels are different from bicycle wheels, whi

awesome, mrxvt, zsh, vim, finch, irssi Awesome and XMonad are the only tiling window managers that handle multiple monitors in a sane fashion, and I happen to like Awesome's a little better than XMonad's. ( 9 virtual desktops per screen vs

Where's the bloat? As mentioned a couple comments up, you can have Sass render the css into a single line CSS file for production. And you render it once, and cache it forever. Same overhead as a css file, maybe even less, because it's auto

Yeah, pretty much. I'm not sure why this debate is even still coming up; It's been "solved" by a half-dozen grid frameworks. The other issue is that people trying to get these pixel-perfect layouts need to rethink their strategy. Its a hype

For your first point, I know network solutions was caught [1] doing that. Never heard of GoDaddy doing it. Your other points, I'm willing to ignore for the benefit of /really/ cheap domains. They're not the car salesmen of registrars, but m

Boulder, CO is pretty much the same. The cost of living here is only overpriced, compared to extremely overpriced in SF. Also, we have better snowboarding here. :-)

I'd like to see this done with some of the lesser-used keys that get used heavily in coding: [ ] { } " ' , . <Tab> <Esc> I wonder if he used source code as the primary input into his algorithm, how the results would change.
