Interesting, I didn't know about printer fingerprints. But I think there are still ways to workaround this. You could print the doc in an internet cafe, or buy a cheap printer and then destroy it, or print it and then take a low qualit

A couple of weeks ago I was searching for go programs in order to see examples of how I could organize a toy project I was starting. I found godit and after reading the source I think it is a good way to organize a small project. Eventually

It sounds weird indeed. The literal translation of branching would be «ramificar», which also doesn't seem right. That's the problem: everyone comes up with their own translations that are not what people refer to them in real life. I say «

I like it, kudos! While I don't see myself ever leaving Vim, I think WriteLaTeX (or something similar) could easily become the standard way for introducing beginners to LaTeX. The only missing features I can think of are: snippets for envir

One thing I love about Lisp is that it's ridiculously easy to write (cons item some-list), or even (cons item1 (cons item2 some-list)). Iterators can help (and in O(1)): >>> from itertools import chain

Because learning git is not mainly about learning the commands. You can write them down on a Post It note and stick it on your wall. It's about learning about how the whole thing is organized, and different metaphors work for different peop

Yes, but then I have to remember for which sites did I truncate the hash, for which I converted the hash to hexadecimal, etc.

I wish I could do something like this all the time, but there are always some sites that force you to put symbols in your password, or to use both lower and upper case, or to be between 6 and 8 characters long, or whatever weird requirement

I can empathize with that, since I also have some traits that raise similar responses, which I'd rather avoid. But I'd better word my request as "please don't question my choices" instead of going into that much detail about them, which is
