When I was running i3 I basically used it as a glorified workspace switcher. I ran a terminal with tmux full screen on one workspace and a browser full screen on the other. i3 let me swap between them, run a status bar with a clock and othe

I agree that they aren't exactly up-front about their model. They do provide a link to a pricing page that lays out the tiers: https://brain.fm/pricing

This is almost exactly what our use case is. I slightly altered the implementation to be more GC friendly though: http://squishtech.posterous.com/addendum-to-the-opposite-of-...

I work on the Trust & Safety team at Twitter and hate spam as much as everyone else. As with any large system the solution is never as simple as "implement this thing, problem solved." As Marco points out, what is or is not spam is a ba

Maybe it's a version thing, but Ctrl+Shift+T doesn't work for me. Cmd+Shift+T does. But will it restore all the tabs you had open when you accidentally quit?

I've been trying to model libxml.js after Nokogiri. I wanted to get something built and working first. The next step is to expose libxml2's html parser. Someone else has started working on find-by-CSS a la Nokogiri. I'll merge that into lib

As impressive as the actual robots are, I'm more impressed with the "dance" they created to show these off.

I've been burned several times by missing semicolons when minifying my code. Now I make sure they're always there. I'm also running everything through JSLint.

My wife is out the door very early in the morning. I make sure I get out of bed when she comes in to say goodbye for the day. My alarm clock has proven ineffective. I'll wake up an hour after it should have woken me up and realize I turned

Take a look at Redmine ( http://www.redmine.org/ ). We're using it for all our internal projects. The git integration is a bit sparse at the moment. You can't browse around branches. But the basics are there.

I think Marco's point was that he's created this site as a fun side project. Supporting IE isn't fun. The vast majority of the site's users aren't IE users so he wont get a lot of flack from its users. I agree that developing for IE isn't t
