I don't have a tune for this so it might be more of a poem than a song. SEVEN RINGS OF SHELL Let your level of shell be denoted by L, with a range greater than or equal to the number of zero. You put a backs

You're probably aware of Smalltalk already but in case you're not, I think it might be of interest to you. There's an open source implementation of Smalltalk called Pharo. They have a few screencasts and recordings of present

Good shit, good shit! I bought that book they mention when it came out and have been reading it at my own pace. I love that book. Look forward to trying out this course material.

A major cause of pain people are hit by when they try to use an operating system other than Windows is that they are uninformed about hardware compatibility. Frequently, when someone wants to try out a new OS, they'll try to install on

I am well aware of that. When you use WHOIS you will be aware of that inaccuracy and know to use just the country instead of using the city you got out of GeoIP thinking it was correct when such as with the example of my IP it was not. The

Bash functions are very useful when you want to manipulate the state of the shell in some way. That is, you write a function for it and stick that function in your .bash_profile. (Unless ofc an alias would be able to perform the job in whic
