Getting familiar with GNU screen and within vim, liberal use of :tabnew foo got me to prefer a terminal emulator for working and notes over eclipse / gedit / nautilus. (gt and gT move to different tabs and :tabm N moves the current tab to tab N btw). If from within vim you :mksession bar.vim, vim saves all your open tabs so you can :wqall and open the tabs again from the shell with vim -S bar.vim

Like seemingly everyone, I organize projects into project/doc, project/src, project/data, project/bin etc.
For example, I have a start.vim each in project/doc and project/src.

Then I put lines in ~/.screenrc

chdir /home/horseshoes/workin/myproject/doc
screen -t myproject_doc vim -S start.vim
chdir /home/horseshoes/workin/myproject/src
screen -t myproject_src vim -S start.vim
screen -t bash bash

When I start screen it automatically opens one window containing a vim sesh with all my most-looked-at documentation tabs (so I can refer to wth I was thinking and organize my mental pushdown stack a little), one window containing a sesh for the source files I currently work on, and a third window holds a shell so I can look for and alter other files or start sqlite3 or make or w/e.

The point is it fires up work for me so I just have to open a terminal and type screen and it's instantly ready compared to opening eclipse or visual studio and then navigating to the relevant related notes and documents, or cluttering up the place with a billion (or even 2 or 3) terminal emulators, since screen multiplexes them. I also like to have screen windows open with cmus (music) and a python interpreter (my calculator and preferred random 'what to make for dinner' decision maker).

I also prefer the command-line environment for programming and also most general use because of the kool tools it's full of you are no doubt very acquainted with (ls, locate, grep, less, ps, pipes et al).
Large-Scale Simultaneous Inference [class notes]
I think the more correct statement is "Why the tablet form factor is more popular".

I don't think it's necessarily going to win, and over the long haul, I think there are ergonomic issues with it. If you hold it flat on your lap, then you don't get a straight-on view of the tablet. And typing is horrendous, and hurts my back after about 30 mins. This is the #1 issue for me.

Sure, you can stick it on a stand and attach a keyboard... but then now you have a desktop (not even a laptop, since the keyboard is built it). There are plenty of applications where it works, like most especially reading ebooks, where you don't need to read and type at the same time. Also, if you can incorporate a writing instrument with it and you can write on the tablet, or playing board games, etc.

So it's definitely popular right now because it's cool and the designs are pretty sweet.

But if you intend to work on it, ie. type and read at the same time, I think over time, serious ergonomic issues are going to turn up.

While trying to browse through things I can review, if I select a filter such as "Photography" and hit the filter button when I view a portfolio I'm unable to use the back button to go back to the listings because it was a POST.

Have you considered making the filter search work using AJAX, which would solve this problem and also make it a nicer user experience?

Edit: I made a portfolio and added a single photo to it, but now when I try to add another photo it says "You've reached your limit" even though it says I can add up to 4 more photos.

Its going to be interesting to see if the Starz deal is going to affect this at all. Anecdotal, but I cancelled my subscription a few months ago after being disappointed with the availability of streaming titles as it was, I cant imagine what itll be like with a further diminished streaming library.

Its a shame that content owners and distributors havent been able to work out a deal. There is money to be made every time someone pirates a movie because there is literally no way for them to pay for it. I wonder if it would be possible for Netflix or Hulu to sustain libraries like that without moving the price past traditional cable services.
This is great news for Argentina!

Our TV providers are pretty much Telecentro and Cablevisión, we need more competition. Hopefully Netflix will be able to shake up the market.

Not sure how our current Internet infrastructure will hold-up, though. Maybe Netflix will help push for more investment in the area. :)

Thanks a lot.
Absolutely. My fault for not mentioning it :)

At this point, the "science" of nutrition is so muddled and tainted by commercial interests as to be essentially without any credibility whatsoever. Pop science articles like the the OP NYT.com link only add to the mess – using absurd metaphors like muscle fatigue for willpower, and talking about self-control as an exhaustible "resource" based on some no-doubt extremely qualitative and subjective study.

I'd like this article a lot more if it weren't sort of gratuitously about gender in a strangely jarring way.

The underlying point about spectatoritis is interesting, but I don't see what it has to do with what it means to "become a man" or developing a "manly 'philosophy of leisure'". Surely plenty of people of both genders are suffering from spectatoritis, and not only in spectator sports (and even there, there are plenty of female fans as well).

Nash's book is not explicitly gendered in that way, though it was written in 1938 and so does have a more implicit built-in assumption that it's probably addressing men (and it does use "man" and "men", but in the now-old-fashioned sense that's sort of gendered but ambiguously so and might also mean "people in general", depending on context). But it's not really accusing its readers of being insufficiently masculine; it's accusing them of being too passive, which seems more to the point.
No, I certainly don't know my complete family tree, especially on my mothers side. I didn't mean to imply that I did.
I had the first palm pre and to this day still think it's the most intuitive mobile OS. Over the past year HTML5 has become pretty legit.

Tons of big companies like Amazon and Financial Tomes are are using it to build awesome mobile sites.

JS will be the language of choice where we can create apps that run on mobiles, web, and even TV.

As long as the browser can't access certain aspects of the phone such as contacts and gps we will still have apps - but I def think we'll use mobile web more than apps in the long run.
Actually, it looks like they're pressuring Microsoft to release a Windows Update patch for this in a staggered way, so that authorities and companies have time to update certificates... Sounds like bad practice to me.

EDIT: Oh, and there's a good reason why the DigiNotar PKIOverheid is now also rejected. The Government cert business was supposed to be on a seperate network, on computers (or data?) stored in a safe. However, there were links between the normal network and the secondary (government) network.

I watch Starcraft games in my liesure time after work.

I used to play it often. But I find I can get as much enjoyment watching pros, who completely dominates the game, play against each other.

The difference is watching doesn't involved the mental effort that playing does. After 8hrs of design/programming, the last thing I want to do is think more.

I imagine the required effort is the same for grabbing a beer and watching football on TV vs going outside and playing it.

It's a gender-specific blog. A good one, too.
Hardness really depends on whether you like something or not, and your previous experience. It's subjective. For a college xc runner, running 5 miles in 35 minutes is "taking it easy", for an average american it's an impossible task,

I think if you find something "hard" you're doing it wrong or setting impossible goals which just lead to frustration and everything becoming harder.
Great that these are individual modules instead of just making a single "browserling" package.

Thank you. That is pretty cool. If only I had a better way to overcome the mental block keeping me away from using the required mental bandwidth.
This article isn't gender-specific, though, except in a very lazy way that just gratuitously throws in the word "man" and "manliness" a few times in an article that has nothing to do with them, unless you count some vague reference to old-fashioned ideas about what constitutes a "real man". It would require changing about four sentences, and not even changing them a lot, to make this a completely gender-nonspecific article.

The blog overall, from a brief skim, seems about 50% sexist nonsense, and 50% obsessed-with-old-accoutrements-of-masculinity hipsters (I expect to find some fancy moustaches and pipes). If it matters, I'm a man, and I find this kind of stuff trying to tell me what it means to be a "real man" pretty offensive, backwards crap.

Choosing the Best Toothbrush
Choosing the Best Toothbrush
Shopping for a toothbrush can be a little daunting; while most of us use a toothbrush every day of our adult lives, many of us don’t know where to even begin when we’re standing in the dental-care aisle of our supermarket. A lot of people end up grabbing one almost at random, and using it for much longer than its intended service life. Add in the options for electric toothbrushes, and it’s easy to feel lost.
Fortunately, choosing a high-quality toothbrush that’s perfect for you doesn’t have to be as hard if you know what to look for. And when in doubt, don’t be afraid to ask your dentist. Austin is home to a number of high-quality dental clinics, so you have plenty of options.
Size
One of the biggest factors you should consider when purchasing a tooth brush is the size of its head. In general, it’s best to keep it under an inch by half an inch. This is big enough that brushing will be efficient, while still being small enough not to be cumbersome.
Outside of that general rule of thumb, though, it’s a matter of personal preference. You can try a couple sizes and see which one feels most comfortable to you.
Bristle Type
Disposable toothbrushes and electric-toothbrush heads alike come in a variety of bristle types: soft, medium, and stiff/hard. If you’re like the vast majority of toothbrush users, soft is probably your best choice. That being said, bristle stiffness is largely a matter of personal choice. If you’re more comfortable using medium or stiff bristles, continue to do so.
Expert Endorsement
It’s always good to look for the American Dental Association (ADA) seal of approval. This lets you know that the brush has earned a reputation for surpassing certain key cleaning criteria.
Another good way to get an expert opinion is to simply ask your dentist in Austin, Texas is home to quite a few good dentists, so it shouldn’t be hard to find one whose advice you trust. Dentists often stock high-quality toothbrushes, and yours may just give you one.
Affordability
While spending more money can mean getting higher quality, this is not always the case. Perfectly good, high-quality toothbrushes can be had at a very reasonable price. As long as you follow the preceding advice for picking a brush, you should be able to find a relatively inexpensive toothbrush that still does the job.
Replacing Your Toothbrush
Most people go far too long without replacing their toothbrushes. Over dozens of brushings, toothbrushes gradually lose their effectiveness as the bristles start fraying and bending outward, meaning that your teeth aren’t getting properly cleaned. When this happens, it’s time to replace the brush. It’s usually a good idea to replace yours every three to four months, as needed.

> I'm almost embarrassed by how much of a sucker I am for syntax, but there it is

It's interesting how so many people profess love for CF's syntax, where I have such a dislike for it (to me, it looks like a magpie language: rather than a whole design it's cobbled from shiny pieces taken from all over the place; the way some features are "integrated" are close enough to yet far enough from the source language that it lands straight in my uncanny valley; it's drawing back from the OO/Func movement of the JS community back into procedural and statements-based something fierce; the target language leaks heavily through such things as the thin v fat arrows; and finally it draws back from things I think are genuinely better features of javascript, such as explicit scopes)
CoffeeScript and Node.js get along fantastically. When the "coffee-script" library is loaded, you can even "require('foo.coffee')" directly, making it easy to mix-and-match JavaScript and CoffeeScript files.

Sam Stephenson, the creator of Prototype.js, has been doing all kinds of awesome things with CoffeeScript and Node.js. And there's a chapter of my book on it...

My wife's mother emigrated from Canada as a child and even though her mother had to renounce citizenship at one point, my wife fell under the law to which you refer.

We went ahead and went through the process to get her citizenship recognized and were successful in doing it. It's a pretty easy process, though a little time consuming. We thought we best do it until they change their minds! If you may want to move to Canada I'd suggest you go ahead and put in your paperwork. It won't cost you much time, depending on what documentation you need to get from your mother.
Where "more terse" means "removing a useful keyword and replacing parens by spaces".

Not exactly impressive (and coffeescript's symbolless maps read horribly badly, imo).

That's because it's the output of the coffeescript compiler, it's not "actual" javascript code.
I had a similarly distasteful relationship with the university which I was attending. I couldn't see myself being a part of such silliness so I dropped out. (Continually increasing tuition with continually decreasing offerings and availability). I actually felt insulted as a student and couldn't imagine putting any faith or value in a degree from them.
I had to choose "2 generations" because my maternal grandfather came over from Russia ~1901. However, my paternal great-grandfather was a full-blooded Native American.

I've tried Opera a couple of times but keep coming back to Firefox. Firefox has a much larger extensions library; the UI is more intuitive IMO (I found it a pain to bookmark with Opera. For some reason, Opera seemed to render better-looking pages but there was nothing there that justified switching over from Firefox.
Canada. Not me though. Sorry.

There's a guy in here from India who lived roughly where his family always has. To me, never having seen anything older than Montreal, that's just inconceivable. Can a hundred generations of children really grow up playing in the same places? Don't places get experienced out?

There's always a distance between me and the stories my ancestors tell because they were in different places, doing different things. The idea of your great-grandfather playing in the same barn you did as a kid, going to the same school... It's weird to contemplate.

Could you suggest an article for me to take a look at that does not reference some sort of normative idea of: 1) manliness; or 2) real men? I.e. that does not try to tell me what I have to be like in order to be a manly-real-man?
The most recent immigration would be from my mother's side. My maternal great-grandparents came from the tiny Caribbean nation of Nevis/St. Kitts in the early 1900's. They were the descendants of slaves who worked the sugar plantations there. They made the trip north and settled in New York, which had better opportunities for education and employment.

I suppose it was hurried along because the DigID service is crucial to managing many government services, social services and the gov student loan system and probably much more (not every citizen has to deal with the same subset of DigID-powered systems, so I don't know all of them myself either).

There's no point if you see "real man" and terms like it and assume the whole thing is sexist schlock. You're looking at the intentional usage of outdated language as a styilistic choice and inferring things around it.
This is the event I'm running in November this year. Last year was a huge success, and I'm convinced many HNers in the UK (and outside - we had several people travel to the UK for this) would really enjoy it.

There's a 10% early-bird discount that closes this week. I know that's imminent - I didn't want to saturate HN with adverts for this. There's also a 10% discount for the unwaged.

Last year we had 50 5-minute talks, and 40% of the time was in conversation/working/networking.

It was brilliant fun - and I'm sure some of you would like it too.
I don't think it has anything to do with trust. Think of all the $$$ companies can make if and when they can correlate a name to browsing habits and thus preferences. Put it in their little database/web mining program and walla. Steve roberts roberson the 3rd has a 98% chance of reading an ad for longer than 2.4 seconds if you place it in his favorite website, which happens to be yoyofuntime.com. do people still try and fool themselves into thinking that Google represents more than their stockholders' interests?
Unless you have a specific example, merely omitting mention of both genders hardly qualifies as "sexism" to me? There are plenty of gender-specific magazines for females that do the same thing all the time. I don't see why everyone must now pepper their prose with "he or she" and use an exact 50/50 proportion of examples using both male and female names (actually, you wouldn't need an equal proportion, as it seems that sexism only applies to men) lest they be labeled sexist?

Secondly, just because it's popular today to think of men differently than the "old-fashioned way" doesn't mean that modern thought is "more correct" as to what defines a man, nor does it mean that people who disagree with the modern idea are "wrong" (I'm not suggesting that the "old-fashioned way" is in anyway correct either, but still people have different opinions - and the popular modern idea is just one more).

But I digress, the blog is quite self-aware and I've always read it with a sort of tongue-in-cheek sense of humor; the "gratuitously" throwing in of "man" and "manliness" is part of the writing style.
Sorry, I didn't mean to infer that she left because of some over-arching national issue. At 14, she took her six sisters and ran away from home to escape an abusive father. They wound up in the U.S.
