    I recommend "A Guide to the Good Life" by William Irvine. The title is a bit off-putting, but it gives a good survey of the philosophy and history of stoicism along with good examp…

    They are much harder to sterilize, and autoclaves don't work. Ideally you'd dispose all tools exposed to prions, but if that's infeasible, the CDC recommends an autoclave in a bath…

    I think it's a common expectation that a disassembler should provide output that is valid to be compiled, and that therefore this is an error.

    1) This is true on the mac too, but it's option instead of ctrl. (option + arrows, option + shift + arrows). It's certainly not common for apps to break this afaik.

    Looks like their plan is to reuse the ocaml compiler backends that output javascript; but it doesn't sound like they're doing anything explicit to promote Reason -> Javascript comp…

    I think it's a new frontend for the OCaml compiler. Allowing reuse of the backend / similar semantics, but with different syntax.

    On an iPhone, you can update the OS from recovery (aka DFU) mode, without it being unlocked.

    This is a really cool idea, and I like the newsletter layout. My only critique is that it's not immediately clear what the site is for, and the paragraph that spells it out (top-le…

    It's basically a format that lets you transmit data somewhat more extensibly than JSON would on its own (and doesn't take a huge performance hit). This means that you can for examp…

    They're suggesting not using this for storage at the moment since the spec is still in flux. But I think once the spec stabilizes, that seems reasonable.

    Safari does something very similar on 10.9. I think it looks at the titles of all the tabs and tries to find the sections that have least commonality between them (not just common …
