I'd rather ask: Why do people prefer to run for hours instead of a more intensive workout in a minutes? Looking at the typical runners [0], why would you desire a physique like tha…

For calorie burning short intensive work outs are better. For example, deadlifts or playing squash for 30minutes is comparable to multiple hours of jogging.

I cannot find this "work out" advice in the article you linked [2].

A "backport" in Debian speak. I use this script for such things: https://gitorious.org/qznc/backporter/blobs/master/backport....

My ideas so far: pointer arithmetician, problemist, optimizationeer, abstractionist, encryptioneer, languagician, recursionist, infinite looper, object orienter, scriptician, threa…

The problem, I experience, is not that action items are missing. The point is that you must write the name of the responsible person next to each action item. Maybe even her email,…

The best online meeting tool in my opinion is etherpad. The meeting starts with a document containing the agenda. Now everybody chats and rewrites the agenda into a protocol of the…

Usually the latest draft is available for free and has the same content as the standard. That should be the N1570 document. http://www.open-std.org/jtc1/sc22/wg14/www/docs/n1570.pd…

I think you should market your manual process more aggressively. Generating from templates is easy and cheap, but that a professional graphic artist is doing it, makes quite a diff…

Would you be impressed by more subtle qualities? Let's say a design with special effects, but printed with a professional printer on thicker paper. Maybe subtle effects like waterm…

Yes, OOP is not clearly defined: http://beza1e1.tuxen.de/articles/oop.html

I do not think your blog examples goes beyond REST. You just need to represent different resources. For example a "title list" or "article set".

Nearly correct. POST does not specify the name of the resource. So you do /orders/42 # with { order: { paid: true } } And it returns the /orders/42/payment transaction resource.

I have to correct myself. You do not want a 50% chance, because the answer does not provide 1Bit of information. If we get it right, we also know the position(s) of the letter. Mor…

Why don't you link your articlecls [0] here? ;) http://wannesm.be/articlecls/

Assuming there is always a letter with a 50% chance and we choose wrong 11 times in a row. One more and game over. At this point we have 11 Bits of information, which is enough to …

If you want to minimize the number of errors, you should try the letter with the most information. In other words, minimize the search space. That is what hythloday suggested.

The mission of TeXLive is to include everything and the kitchen sink. However, why should their TeXpad support everything? They could go the XeTeX+biber+TikZ route and educate thei…

Off-topic: Generating slides from an outliner like Org-mode produces those ugly bullet points en mass, doesn't it? The upside is of course, that they are easy and fast to generate.…

That is correct for the general style. However, then you have to hunt for packages for pseudocode, nicer tables, diagrams, pdf bookmarks and hyperlinks, subfigures, etc.
