Ran into one of these about a month ago. I was working with some sketch PHP that was resulting in a seg fault, when I attached xdebug and stepped through the code, it ran fine.

Every so often I have to do some minor maintenance work on a GoDaddy account, I can't stand their interface.

I may have said it elsewhere, but I'm a big fan of DirectNIC even though they are double GoDaddy's price. There interfaces are really clean, and any time I've transferred or sold a domain it has been an absolute breeze. And back in the day, when all the major registrars were shutting down their web-based WHOIS tools (NetSol et al), DirectNIC always kept their WHOIS tool open which always bought them a lot of good will in my book. (I wasn't aware of command line tools like 'whois' and 'nslookup' yet...)

I just set up redmine about 2 months ago, and I'm loving it. Recently got my SVN linked up and now I can cross reference commits with issues in the tracker.

Getting the same thing on Google Chrome 12 on Ubuntu 9.04.

I kind of like hiding the points for active threads, maybe after 24 hours it could show the points. This would be helpful when

I used readability on this link. It actually dropped the 'Epilogue' on this one which left me scratching my head for a couple seconds before I backed out. But readability is incredibly handy on almost every ugly/noisy content page, it's one of the few tools I use every day.

I didn't know Safari had a "Reader" button (I usually stick to FF/Chrome), out of curiosity do you know who implemented the idea first?

I'm sure you could pick up quite a few bitcoins with it.

This was an excellent explanation, and it's a really brilliant idea. And the fact that it already has an impressive perceived value (parity with USD), I would totally accept it as a form of payment. It will be interesting to see what this does over time.

Honestly I don't mind keeping FB as a Rolodex of people I may only tangentially know, but I don't necessarily want to know what they had for breakfast. Hiding totally solved this problem for me too.

1+5+4 = 10 (even digit sum)

For small values of X < 10

11X = X+X, 2X always even

For slightly larger values of X, where 11X < 200

11x10 = 110, (starts out even)

11x11 = 121, (both of the first two digits increment by one, flipping even or odd ... in unison)

11x18 = 198, (only two signs will flip until we increment the 100s place, when that happens we will reverse three signs instead of two)

11x19 = 209, (now, three instead of two flip, and our sum comes up odd for the first time, 2+0+9=11)

I'm running Ubuntu on my development machine, and I really enjoy VIM keybindings. I had a lot of trouble getting the key bindings to work in Eclipse, but jVi worked like a charm in NetBeans for me. (Needed a rich IDE for some Magento dev. Sometimes to make a 2-line change properly in the core involves making 3 dirs, 2 XML files, 1 php file. le sigh)

Given the misspellings/mispronounciations/miscommunications already inherit in the name, I think they should re-brand as something like: Disápora ... (or some other spelling of a similar phonetic ilk)

* I say this because every time I've tried to describe it verbally, I always end up saying something like 'disapora' and making a hand-wavey gesture in a direction "away" from 'facebook'

Perhaps, they should find a way to (re)measure the final product, and re-label as necessary.

My mother, who has worked as a seamstress, says that when they cut the fabric for the patterns, the pattern cut can vary as much as 2 inches depending on whether the fabric was on the top or bottom of the stack being cut. (Though I'm sure the error margin might be lower these days than they were before.)

True, but there's also the massive anarchistic user base. /r/all is/was yelling censorship top to bottom. Starting to look a lot like the Digg Revolt[1] circa '07 regarding the 09 F9 .. censorship.

Come on, it's 777 pages for a reason! :)

When I realized the page count (purposefully) included the index I was quite tickled. So many gems, little and large...

Uh, I wouldn't know about Leopard; but Ubuntu can apparently go to "11". (http://i.imgur.com/8E7Wx.jpg)

I couldn't find the original quote, but if I can paraphrase it:

Spend two pence less than you make and you'll be content, maybe even happy. Spend two pence more than you make and you'll be miserable.

I'll second this. The method I use is to count to five, then return to 1. You can sort of gage where you're at, as you'll catch yourself hitting 6, 10, 12 before returning to one. This is a good sign, just don't get too excited about the fact that you're about to fall asleep...

(Also, recently I had only been awake 8h that "day", but needed to get to sleep "early" in order to get a full 8h of sleep before a client meeting the next morning. So, I made Mac&Cheese with an entire stick of butter (~1500cal + 90g fat). This seemed to slow my heart down and put me out like a light. Though this method has obvious health implications, I'd be lying if I said it didn't work like a charm... that one time.)

My first computer job as a teen was working at a small SEO shop (3 people) writing little cgi/perl scripts for this and that.

Yahoo's http server at that time used to take redirect URLs in this format: "http://yahoo/url/*http://exiturl/. They were using these URLs on all search results, I'm guessing to track click-throughs to improve rankings. So I set up a script on our site to load an image using this format with the img src in the exit-url, and for the yahoo-url and we would round robin 'client' links though. Essentially spoofing legitimate search&clicks on yahoo from unique IPs from our site visitors. Over the next two weeks all our sites started bubbling up in the results. This worked for about a month before Yahoo changed something (I'd guess they started validating the http-referrer or the exit-url), and it all stopped working.

But, for that brief window of time when it was working, I was the king of the high fives.

(FWIW, I don't do SEO work of any kind anymore, and I certainly don't advocate 'blackhat seo'.)
