I suggested that link because it discusses what may work for the parent to get what he needs right now, instead of speculating a 'kindle version might be coming soon.' The formats …

Or 14.

I know how to achieve it, (File > New view into file), it's just not as natural as jedit (You just open different views and the current open file defaults to opening in the new vie…

I haven't used it on a mac, but on Linux and Windows it looks pretty sweet. Here's what it looks like on mine right now (looks same on windows and linux): That's some python code w…

I used Sublime Text 2 on all my machines for over a month for Python and C. It was great for about 90% of the things. But I ended up going back to jedit because of: - The way split…

I always genuinely care and end up looking like a smug asshole most of the time but there are a few times when someone does seem to feel really good that I care. You should see how…

Wait, DataNitro is more descriptive than IronSpread?

I would think that should be highly irrelevant. If they have invested in Spotify, then they are just securing their place in case Spotify (or Spotify-like services) displace the ol…

Wasn't that the whole thing with diaspora? Funny I haven't seen anyone even mention diaspora in these threads.

Perfect. Given Venus's gravity is 0.904g, we could work something out in a few years.

Valid point about the option of a slim xfce-based install being available. I disagree about the 'normal people' point. 'Normal people' are less likely to download Debian as opposed…

While the inverse of that (light text on dark) makes for a terrible reading experience, yet so many bloggers/sites do it. (Funny observation: I seem to prefer dark themes for codin…

Your point is understandable, but distribution restricted to the size of a CD is a major feature. It fits right in with the linux way of supporting really old hardware. It's not ab…

Call me paranoid, but I'm scared it's also getting the attention it probably shouldn't.

I recall in one of the interviews he said he "I do appreciate money and it is needed to invest in ventures, but I personally I'm not in it for the money. I can already buy everythi…

I think trains/metro rails are just outright much more cost effective, given it's not personal transport.
