Related and fun: the Fremont Cabal Internet Exchange[1]. The person who started it has a great blog[2] about all kinds of related things. There’s a really good interview[3] with him about how it started and what it takes to run it on the On

Thanks for clarifying. I certainly didn’t mean to disparage Red at all - the language seems interesting and the project admirable. I’m really eager to dive in and explore, but I’m on Catalina so I can’t yet. The debate thing was just the im

I discovered Red (and its predecessor Rebol) a few months ago and was really excited about it - very interesting blend of ideas that seems to hit a sweet spot for GUI scripting. Then I discovered it doesn’t have 64-bit support and it seems

You’re right about Neovim’s effect on Vim improvements and lighting a fire in Bram. Even if neovim goes belly-up (unlikely), or totally diverges (slightly less unlikely), they’ve done a huge service to the vim community simply by existing a

I’m torn by the idea of replacing vimscript with lua. I honestly enjoy both languages (vimscript is not as bad as its reputation!) but they each shine in different use-cases. Lua is more ergonomic for writing programs/plugins, but vims

Silly as this product is, as a kid I always wished for something like this to up the immersiveness of video games. Maybe it would be doubly effective now with VR. Getting it in a reasonable form factor and some practical issues (stinking up

As a designer I would never hand over my designs to one of those chop shops. Any designer worth his salt can code his own designs. I don't trust the psd2html services to give me high-quality, semantic, robust markup and CSS.

An admittedly cursory comparison shows that Hoptoad isn't free. That could be reason enough right there. (edit: beat to it!)

Ultras rock. There is no better experience than running as the sun goes down knowing you've been running since it came up. And all your friends have awakened, watched reruns, eaten pizza, and gone back to sleep while you've been running ;)

Wow. This is a great guide. The diagrams really help in understanding, and the writing is clear. Thanks for putting in the time to help others. Keep up the good work.

Hey, sorry for the late reply. Thanks for mentioning Review Board. I'm a big Django fan anyway, so at the very least it'll be insightful to review it. Thanks. And I guess we're out of luck on an open-source Backboard clone...

$10 million after taxes and I never work again. Invest half in various ventures and live comfortably off the interest from the other half.

Cross-posted from my comments on the blog itself: I think the reason for the recent high-profile assault is not zeal on the part of the people actively decrying IE6. They just realize that sometimes, to make change happen (especially change

I play 5-string banjo, 3-finger style. It grabbed hold of me and now it just sucks up my time. But it's worth it. I'm getting pretty good, so who cares about doing actual work. :D

Ugh. This is so misleading. What you really should say is "do what makes you truly happy for the longest amount of time". That implies some thinking about the future instead of blindly following something that may lead to short-term but not

Location is a huge one for me. I'm an outdoor fanatic, so living near good places for outdoor adventuring is a must.

Seemed promising, but turns out to be irrelevant to me. If I ran Windows I could already run all those browsers. It would be really nice if they released a version that could run on OSX.

I think his point about making money was more about survival. We need money to live, and it takes a long time to get good enough at something that you can make a living doing it. The point is how do you make a living (not necessarily get ri
