I don't understand the commentary about B&N possibly spinning off the subsidiary or selling it to Microsoft. Nook is B&N's only hope of survival.

Ironically, I was using Chrome and got that error. Then I tried Firefox and it worked.

My concern is that my ability to get feeds for news I want to follow is being reduced as people move to social networks. As you say, I can't count on catching one tweet or facebook post in the flood of messages. But sometimes people are onl

I've been using a Now & Zen timepiece for about 5 years now. It is far more pleasant to wake up to a gentle gong than electric buzzers that shock you awake. You can adjust the strike force to control for loudness. I keep it set fairly

ALEKS is awesome, I used it 10 years ago to refresh on some math topics. I should try it again just to see how much has improved since then.

Tor (not TOR) uses directory servers to keep track of middle and exit nodes. You can get the list directly or via a variety of front-ends. See https://www.torproject.org/docs/faq-abuse.html.en#Bans

The linux kernel has an order of magnitude fewer files than Facebook's test repository (25,000 in version 2.6.27, according to http://www.schoenitzer.de/lks/lks_en.html ) and only 9 million lines of text. This is on the largish side for a

I've used ViEmu for 5 years. I'm very satisfied with it. Don't have any reason to try VsVim, but it's nice to know there's more than one option now.

For dinner, it says I should have quinoa, wild rice, and chickpeas. I think it would be more appetizing if it did its calculations on a recipe basis -- so you'd get a menu plan composed of recipes selected to meet the given requirements. E

In your analogy, you assume that god exists. I could argue that if all unicorns are pink, then you can't disprove all unicorns are pink by showing me a blue one. That's like proving a theorem, finding it conflicts with your axiom, and say

I used ion2 for a few years. Now I've been using awesome for a few years. They're both nice. Overall, I think I prefer letting the wm arrange my windows. There are a few times where I have considered writing my own layouts, but that itc

Amazon says that S3 provides eleven nines (99.999999999%) durability of files. So if you have 100 billion objects in S3, you should expect to lose on average 1 per year. Or, if you have 10,000 files, you should expect to lose 1 per 10 mil

I have two of those keyboards, and I really like the layout. And it's one of the only keyboards that gives you a negative tilt angle. But I wish they were available with mechanical key switches. I have gone back to flat keyboards with ch

My primary complaint about Tree Style Tabs is that the nesting gets unwieldy. I have been meaning to check out Vertical Tabs ( https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/vertical-tabs... ). It's by the same developer who made BarTab.

I think that the browser footprint is fairly large, but as you open more tabs it uses proportionately less ram per tab (though it must level off at some point). I'm using 15 extensions (the only one of yours I'm not using is diigo), I doub

I use Session Manager. Open all the tabs you use daily, and then save the session and configure Session Manager to open that session on every startup. ( https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/session-manag... )

I currently have 203 tabs open, and firefox has been running for 13 days. It's using 2.1gb of memory. I churn through tabs a lot. Firefox used to have memory problems, but it hasn't been a problem for me in at least a year. 10mb per tab

I see that you updated it so that it caches the final html for each unique set of parameters. I guess I should have better explained what I meant by "compiled". If you pass the template text to the underscore function without any parameter
