"Sleep paralysis is, crudely, your brain waking up before your body." I experience this, or something very similar, every now and again, perhaps once every two months or so. I understand that I'm awake, I can hear, but can&#x

"lacked the communication skills"... seriously? how do you know? just because English is not his primary language and he had hard time expressing himself in an unfamiliar language does not mean that he "lacked the communicati

"Don't mistreat. Don't be mistreated." Well, tell that to Ryanair. They seem to be doing quite fine mistreating their employees [1]. I find it difficult to understand why people are working for them, but there must be re

Aperture on OSX. I have folders one for each year. In each folder I create projects. Projects fall into two categories: big events (holiday) or generic (flowers, random family snaps, etc). Big events follow this naming scheme: MMDD - <ev

So they survived 65'000 years just fine, but now suddenly we need to "help" them? I don' think they need our medicine, housing or plumbing.

Sad thought, but I think they would soon turn into... well, lawyers.

I'm replying because terms like "chef", "knife" and "recipe" sometime yield funny results on Google. Keeping the long story short - it's a configuration management system. Have a look at http:/&

OK, I see your point. However... :) * How about colour blind people? Shades imitating 3D still could be perceived and interpreted correctly, yet "bright colours dimension" doesn't work anymore. * Calendar icon above the form might imply tha

What I don't like about flat design is that suddenly there's no way to distinguish between interactive (clickable) and static (non-clickable) items. Looking at this: http://dribbble.com/shots/917819-iPad-Calendar-Login There's no indicati

Good summary! And just shows how much current web "stinks". There's a bunch of tools that advanced users can use to make the web experience more or less safe and tolerable. But I suspect (and sorry, I don't have any source to back up my sus

As someone who is not a "web designer", but occasionally have to knock up a page or two I agree with you all 100%. To me the whole CSS business is just a big hack, and not at all usable or intuitive. YMMV, but I think there's a reason why p

Really sad, especially when something like Chef-client is also installed in a similar fashion [0], one would expect these guys to know better: sudo true && curl -L https://www.opscode.com/chef/install.sh | sudo bash [0] ht

"settle down and stabilize." Depends how you look at it. From BTC point of view it is the USD that's highly unstable and dropping in value... It's all relative.

Don't know about a) - can't remember. I'm just happy with my vim skills as they are now. Sometimes I come across a tip showing a trick or two that I didn't know. Totally agree regarding b). I like to be able to jump on a random machine and

Did you try modifying step 2 to something along these lines: "Great idea, I never thought about it, we really need <something>! Problem is, this particular model of <something> is not the best and will not do <something

Just out of curiosity, where do you live?

It doesn't bother me. Sometimes it's just more convenient not having to type sudo with every command. Especially if it's a throw away VM/host that you're experimenting with. YMMV.

I think you're right on both points: yes, teachers can apply reasonable force [1], but as you said, teachers might not actually be physically able to restrain them without a risk. [1] https://www.education.gov.uk/publications/eOrderingDown

Can they? At least in the UK you get the stupid "child rights/abuse" nonsense as soon as they try any sort of disciplinary action... Ant the bullies well aware of this situation.

I wonder, when this becomes mainstream, what is going to start happening on the roads? It is already quite dangerous with some drivers texting/talking on their phones while driving. So now they will have yet another thing to look at (other

Stuff them all in a basement, or a hangar, in a "space efficient open floor plan that encourages team collaboration and communication" (read - easy micromanagement, and cost saving). Who needs all that comfort, they should be toiling away,

So this will also reduce the amount of power harvested by the sun panels? Therefore increasing the "green energy" costs?

OK, but still that doesn't change the equation. 22 secs washing and 8 secs drying is still 30 secs in total, whether it's done separately or not. And as you mentioned, the number of sinks and the number of dryers are balanced, so they combi

Not sure. Let's say a person spends 15 secs washing, and 15 secs drying. Combined it's still 30 secs. So if we have a long queue, does it really matter that two people are in the bathroom at any given time, or just one? The total processing
