IIRC the Arcade came about a year after the original X360. I had one of the originals, chrome disc drive and 10GB HD (maybe that was usable space). ... Okay, looked it up and you're right, except it was the 'Core' model. Arcade was two full

A fellow vim/dvorak user here. I started using ruby around three months ago and am only just starting to integrate that back into my regular vim workflow. RubyMine actually looks pretty useful if I'm ever tempted to step back outside my zen

A few years ago when I was visiting Buffalo, NY, and Apple had just started making a 30" iMac, someone came in with one and a slew of peripherals and then promptly decided to set it all up on the milk/napkin/straw bar.

Sorry, I realized after posting that my phrasing was pretty bad. The current setup looks good for the sort of thing I do– I would pay for it (one time probably)– but if you then made it super easy to set up for multiple users, even if it wa

If you offered a license for web hosts to use this, I think I know a whole bunch of coders and designers who would gladly pay for a hackable IMAP client. Kickstarter isn't a bad idea, but you should also try polling people to find out if yo

Am I the only one getting a stream of NetDB errors (with the occasional HTTP 500 or 502)? I guess I'll just have to wait until... whatever server it's trying to connect to is up and running. I haven't had a chance to install a single packag

If you enjoyed Meditations please keep a lookout for anything by Epictetus. Depending on the publisher titles may vary, but Discourses is common (iirc they were notes compiled from his many stories and teachings). You won't be disappointe

I felt the same until I started using it. As boring as it sounds, just working and being easy enough for your grandparents to use is apparently enough to get people excited. The fact that it's been done (or tried) so many times before rea

I'm curious, but what's your workflow re: Obj-C development? I only dabble, and for me the vim-xcode bindings are enough but mainly because I don't find myself on the command line much during an XCode session. The built-in shortcuts are all

So, tin foil hoodies? Or maybe chain mail will come back in style? I haven't encountered one of these yet, but I'd actually be willing to go through if I had some sort of metallic pre-wash all over my clothes.

On the one hand, there's a lot of unique things you could learn as an urban planner by spending all of your working days driving a cab. On the other, that's not really a field you want to get behind in (unless you want to teach, I guess).

MacConnection has them for $300 off since December if you go through the link on AppleInsider. That being said, I think it'd be better if flash sales and the like weren't posted to HN.

Hey, this looks handy! I just wrote something kinda similar as part of an ad-hoc UI layer that just had to be done in HTML/JS. At first I was horrified, but by a couple hundred lines in I realized how nice it would feel to finally tame thos

It wouldn't be long before every car used in this way became like a small limousine. The efficiency of driverless cars would easily outweigh the cost of such a redesign.

Looks great! One nitpick, the homepage button beneath Get Started could be a little bit wider, or the type on both buttons could be tracked down a tad.

I've never used the simple lock– I have a long passphrase that I prefer. It still won't let me change keyboards, despite setting the OS language being set to Japanese. It's up-to-date software wise, but was purchased in the US so...

There's a theater one town over, population about half of that (edit: 1/3- it was 960 as of 2011). They've been doing pretty well, better than ten years ago even! Their prices are the same as every other theater (the next one being 45 minut

Well, I remember trying to get my cousins to cut open their stuffed animals so that I could stuff my Lego Mindstorms creations inside. I'll be checking back in this thread, definitely something I'm interested in as well.

Maybe they were dictating, or inputting handwriting. They're close in sound and spelling. Edit: Should've opened the darn thing first. It's a transcript, so probably just the speech conversion.
