This is a crowd funding campaign for an inexpensive FPGA board with a simpler HDL with an web IDE. I first heard about it at 30c3 (video links below) and I think it's a great start…

I was thinking about this, too, when I read his name. Whereas Europeans generally pronounce his name the right way ('Nick-louse Veert'), Americans invariably mangle it into 'Nickel…

Would you be willing to say a bit more about which country and how you got there? (My E-Mail is in my profile.) I'm currently in Switzerland, but I plan to live in Mediterranean co…

If you want to get to know him a bit better, read his (freely licensed) biography: http://static.fsf.org/nosvn/faif-2.0.pdf

This was a very graphic and easy-to-understand explanation of indexes in general. Although I thought I understood indexes, it helped me understand secondary indexes better. Thanks …

According to a twitter answer, yes. At least with Virtual PC. (See reply to question by MrComputerRevo on http://twitter.com/#!/windevs ) Edit: Direct link: http://twitter.com/#!/w…

This is a cool project. :-) It also doesn't work in Opera, because the emscripten compiled CPython doesn't work with this browser. No problems in latest stable Firefox.

Is there a dedicated graphics processor or switchable graphics in this notebook? This might explain the rather big difference in battery time since many Linux graphics drivers are …

Please change the title. "Lulzsec suspect arrested scotland yard" implies to me that it was the suspect who arrested scotland yard, whereas the suspect was actually arrested by sco…

Did you extend Pandoc or Gitit? I would be very interested in extending/changing Pandoc slightly, but so far I got along with doing my changes with sed and writing some inline LaTe…

I'm actually writing my diploma thesis using Markdown and Pandoc. Some hacking is necessary (sed is so far sufficient), but it's a lot more pleasant then writing LaTeX directly.

"intellectual property" That's a really muddy term. How exactly can you protect a protocol? Trade secret? Patents? Copyright shouldn't apply if it's a reimplementation. Edit: s/sin…

xrandr (use "xrandr --output --rotate (normal|right|left|inverted)", e.g. "xrandr --output DVI1 --rotate right") Ubuntu also has a graphical tool for this, probably also other dist…

Edit: Works now, thanks for fixing it so fast. That's what I get now using Opera 11.11 32bit on Linux. Uncaught exception: ReferenceError: Security error: attempted to read protect…

Some problem in Opera 11.11. Now I wonder if it works in any version of IE...

For X11 users, there's also redshift ( http://jonls.dk/redshift/ ). I use it when using the computer at night as it makes for easier reading.

When I read through the text, it didn't once think "this can't work". It seems plausible and if implemented, this could indeed be a big step forward. I hope this, or a similar effo…

You can read the announcement here: https://mozillalabs.com/blog/2011/02/prism-is-now-chromeless... Basically: Both can solve the same problem, but Chromeless is more powerful.

Looks like the decision to stop development of Mozilla Prism was not a bad one. "appify" looks very interesting.

For people like me, who didn't know what "Silk Road" was in this context: It's an anonymous market for drugs using Tor. [1] Bitcoins are used for paying. [1] http://www.bitcoin.org…

It's remembered. (I have been running it since beta 2 on my work computer.)
