So the question is now whether they also come back this time as they did before, or whether this time it’s for good.

It’s now usable without JS once again. It was not long ago that repositories stopped being viewable without JS enabled, but they are now again. I hadn’t tried interacting in Issues…

More of a self-flagellation than an apology, frankly… it was actively uncomfortable to read, unlike even his initial angry mail. I have yet to respond to him because I didn’t know …

It was not a good point. AlphaGo can’t decide that it’s bored and go skydiving. Humans aren’t merely capable of playing Go. And when they do it, they can also pace around the table…

Let’s not forget that aside from being vastly more energy efficient as a Go player, Lee Sedol is additionally capable of taking on a virtually unlimited list of other, equally mach…

It’s simply not the full experience without sitting through it running on while the choir swells.

Why would you need VNC? You only need a browser. On the machine on which you thought you were going to run the VNC client, you open the browser and go to beets’s web UI. Then you p…

Hey, cool! Nice to get an attribution – is it OK if I add the citation to the post? Anything else you remember about it?

And here is how you get a web page you can open to view the whole thing in a one sitting: perl -e'print " img{width:2048px;height:2048px} "; print /X$/ ? "\n" : " " for @ARGV' {{13…

Thanks for sharing! I was just going to do that myself, glad that now I don’t have to.

You do understand that “due to a bug in Rakudo” means that this is a limitation of the implementation rather than the language, and that it will be fixed in due time – right?

OK, Mr. PickyPants, I went and fixed my usage. Happy now? :-) (Thanks for the nudge.)

Good comment. I just want to react to the last sentence. I use `git commit -a` plenty and without compunction. There are many times where a tweak or very simple feature doesn’t inv…

That’s true, most of the time it doesn’t really matter. But it’s like properly formatting and indenting your source. Any one particular instance of sloppiness is irrelevant, but in…

Yes, that’s what I meant. I tried to keep the terminology simple (there were several other places where I avoided jargon) because I consider the article’s target audience to be peo…

Yes!! Exactly. Thank you for putting in words something that was too hazy in my mind to even think of expressing it. Would you mind giving your name if I add this to the article as…

For posterity (hopefully this link will last longer than the front page), here’s what was on it: http://static.thepiratebay.org/doodles/cartoonish.gif

You can’t get out of it. You can only prepare: http://cluborlov.blogspot.com/2009/02/social-collapse-best-p... Surprised that no one has posted it, so I submitted it here: http://n…

Exactly how would it do that, pray tell? There is zero contradiction between that statement and materialism.
