If you are on ubuntu hardy I feel your pain. It completely blows. Perhaps this will help, the result of many many painful hours combing the forums. It seems to do the trick for me, anyway. I programmed this as a bash shortcut so I wouldn't

There is a flaw here too though. Regulators could game this system by taking their lump sum and not doing the work involved with sniffing out fraud. If there's no fraud, they win, and didn't have to do any work. If there is fraud, maybe the

This is very interesting for me, a non-iphone owner. Could you be more specific about the apps you use and the caching features? I'm interested in moving my music into the cloud as well. Thanks. Edit: were you referring to a theoretical ser

I think if it's a nanotech-based solution to aging, we'll have the resources to build some whopping big monster colony ships. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Culture#Orbitals

I don't know, but I hope we get space colonization first, or it's going to get awfully crowded and competitive around here.

TFA doesn't explain what prevents outsourcing django and ruby on rails. I think the answer may be... nothing. Personally my approach is to do the bulk of the webev yourself and outsource stuff like graphic design, research, maybe some simpl

I think I finally fixed this problem. http://groups.google.com/group/HAppS/browse_thread/thread/cf... Basically it was a lazy io issue in haskell, fix was using a strict version of readFile for templates. Hope it stays up now!

I totally agree. It's not really a "minor detail." There's a "getting organized" thread on the happs googlegroup about this at the moment, and I really hope it bears fruit. This should be done via haddock of course, but haddock won't build

If you want to be a web programmer, start building web apps. The obvious thing is to get good at ruby. But I would say, have a look at haskell, and happstutorial.com. hanging out in haskell cafe, a certain amount of CS is likely to just rub
