Jesus Christ, King of Mercy and Justice, teach us how to love the cross and the poor, and to humbly build your Father's kingdom with faith, hope and charity. O Christ crucified, present in the poor and suffering, save our souls! O God, fill

Blessed Teresa of Calcutta, friend of the poor, lover of that Heart which exploded with charity on the Cross, please pray for the repose of the soul of Christopher Hitchens, and for the salvation of us sinners on earth.

"The Little Book.." was the first instructional text I read on CoffeeScript, i.e. beyond Coffee's home page hosted on GitHub. I followed up with the following free e-book, which I highly recommend: Smooth CoffeeScript http://autotelicum.gi

Not sure if you'd have any thoughts on this matter... The JavaScript community as a whole (seen especially in the direction of node.js + NPM) is moving away from global namespaces and toward the "module pattern" and dependency injection (no

No previous Perl programming-experience. I've been consciously aware of Perl since at least 1998 and even poked at the source code of some scripts here and there, but didn't bother to really learn anything about it until recently. A brief e

Over the past week I've read "Modern Perl", and will finish it later today: http://onyxneon.com/books/modern_perl/ The ebook/PDF edition is free! It's a great book for learning (modern) Perl basics if you're already familiar with programm

As someone who uses and develops open source software, communication via IRC (especially the Freenode network) is an important element of my day-to-day routine. I'm very happy running weechat in tmux, on a Linux VPS hosted by Rackspace. I c

It would be interesting to find out if using Hans Montanus's non-canonical formulation of GR (which involves a Euclidean metric and perfectly flat space-time) would yield the same numerical predictions, just with different "book keeping". T

Oh, forgot to point out the other big difference. Slicehost had (and still has) a monthly billing model with a monthly bandwidth allowance bundled into the cost. Rackspace Cloud Servers costs are calculated on two factors: how many hou

No, you are incorrect. Slicehost technology is Rackspace Cloud Servers technology. Cloud servers and Slicehost slices are running in the same racks on the same hardware using identical technology stacks -- always have been. The c

The author mentions CPS... There already exists a powerful cross-environment JavaScript CPS implementation called JooseX.CPS: https://github.com/SamuraiJack/JooseX-CPS Tutorials: http://joose.it/blog/2011/02/14/joosex-cps-tutorial-part-i

How amazingly cool is this! http://jsfiddle.net/michaelsbradleyjr/sZUtU/ I had not really tinkered with flapjax on the client-side until tonight, but jsfiddle sparked my instincts to really fiddle with something I had been delaying fiddli

jade looks interesting, had not heard of it before and will be looking closely at it for sure. I'd like to also recommend Nickolay Platonov's little-known but powerful JS templating library "Shotenjin": https://github.com/SamuraiJack/Shote

I had Office Depot print this cheat sheet: in color, legal-sized, double-sided, laminated with a heavy/stiff plastic and spiral bound. It now sits off to the side of my desk and has made for an invaluable reference over the past year.

My beliefs and meditation-prayer practices are according to the Christian Faith, but "sitting quietly, doing something" is an apt description whether it's Buddhist meditation or Christian mental prayer (a Western form of meditation). I am h

Joose is an open source "object system" built with JavaScript on top of JS which allows one to employ classes, modules, roles (like mixins) and a number of other programming concepts found in Ruby, Smalltalk and other popular OO languages.

How about Faye? It's an implementation of the Bayeux protocol in JavaScript and Ruby, with both server and client code available in both languages. There's a JS client for browsers too: http://svn.cometd.com/trunk/bayeux/bayeux.html htt

I posted this info as a comment on the guy's blog (still awaiting moderation), but I thought you might find it interesting too, the point being that amazing things are possible with JavaScript and node.js, but if you're thinking single-file

It's pretty clear that this church's site was inciting or had the potential to incite violence. I think the tricky issue here is "hate speech". There are varying standards, and what metric will/do Rackspace and other hosting providers adhe

tmux is a great BSD-licensed alternative: http://tmux.sourceforge.net/ I've tried both, and the licensing issue aside, I've found I prefer tmux. Anyway, not wanting to turn this into a gnu vs. bsd, tmux vs. screen argument, but I didn't e

Ordered on Amazon! Really, I feel very excited, just wanted to say thank you again. I had not stumbled across this resource when googling around for such an intro/guide, or maybe it just didn't catch my eye.

Joose has a Modules facility that works pretty nicely both in the browser and in other contexts, e.g. Node.js. When combined with the "use" facility of JooseX.Namespace.Depended, I think you get a similar functionality as to what's being d
