six parts!
[via]though I'd probably phrase that way, way more harshly.
almost by design.
Oh and basically the whole Placebo discography. Though either some of the recordings I have aren't on YouTube, or they've been sampled very badly ... wouldn't surprise me.
PDF viewers should really support links to anchors or at least page numbers. With browsers it would make even more sense.
can I just say that I absolutely love it?
Need to send something to your phone? Fear not and use the power of QR codes: xclip -o clipboard -selection clipboard | qrencode -s 12 -o - | feh -

Wonder what's the easiest/most fun way of making some more music, perhaps software looper tied to midi keyboard for triggers? Unfortunately my laptop isn't the fastest machine.
is super awesome.
The insanity that is MySQL character sets and collations.
well, that's good to know. And scary enough.
quite apropos, considering the way I've used cl-cffi-gtk to initialise an application broke while upgrading Gtk.
If you mix the Skype ring tone into your track you are an evil, evil person.
Hätte nicht gedacht das ich mal derselben Meinung wie Bosbach bin. Aber gut, wenn Meinungsfreiheit jetzt schon der kleinste gemeinsame Nenner ist.
Aaaaand back in Berlin.
;-;
in case I want to get actual disassembly output
GIMP doesn't open an image from a URL based on the file ending. Nicht gut.
so much for writing language bindings based on GObject Introspection.
It's 2015^H6 and we still need JavaScript fallback to create a date picker. So sad.
more like pip is utter garbage.
:(
that is a horrible feature when enabled by default.
Oh wow. wmname LG3D, followed by unset AWT_TOOLKIT works wonders for shitty Swing applications under dwm.
Quick reminder for myself: On Ubuntu/LightDM just add create a new file at /usr/share/xsessions/dwm.desktop, c.f. this Ask Ubuntu post. Also needs the Type=Application, otherwise it just doesn't do anything.
While cashing in on the bubble is cool, having a million startups "reinventing job search" is more than annoying. Every other email is "hur dur, post your profile on our site."
Eldritch is pretty cool.
Sites that use JavaScript to load fonts are infuriating. As is the use of wrong Unicode ranges for icon fonts.
Very versatile, maybe a bit less so than the Underscore.js one: def pluck(name, sequence, type=list): return type(x[name] for x in sequence)
Dumping about a gigabyte of text from less takes entirely too much time.
Chrome performs even worse for a couple of hundred tabs, rendering the UI wrongly / recursively, displaying pages incompletely, or just black. Oh and it crashes of course. Not very impressed by this, including the fact that on startup it again tries to load all tabs instead of deferring some of the work. Which makes it crash again.
Drinking Bavarian beer in Munich, delicious!
Almost Zen-like: To make Angular.js fast you must not use it.
Wanted: Proxy from Reddit to NNTP so I can use slrn to browse it.
a.k.a. Event Sourcing for (board) games.
also the Google Code repo, but that might be more likely to disappear in the future.
Quick note: Configuring Emacs with Cairo output causes severe rendering performance degradation. Not recommended.
Moving multiple files from a text file to a target directory: xargs -a input -i mv {} /dest.
Wanted: Proxy for Blogspot blogs to replace all the Javascript with a pre-rendered / static HTML version. And it's sad that that's needed at all.
obviously there's no such thing as too many monitors. Want.
Something that the (Debian in case that's related) update for Firefox doesn't seem to understand, is that I definitely don't want to change my default search to Yahoo. Wtf.
Also, s3cmd/s4cmd.
New business model: Provide before/after diffs for Google search results where entries have been removed because of EU data protection law.
mosh with support for tmux windows / panes would be great, i.e. less transmitted data by saving more state.
IPython notebook would be good if only it had a proper editor. For Emacs ob-ipython or EIN would be options, but then again I'm using some JavaScript/HTML functionality. Maybe when eww or w3m support JavaScript.
Yes. Yes. If we're hacked we replace all of our computers. Obviously. Now I wonder if that was just an opportunity to upgrade old hardware, or just an opportunity, period. Then again, since the government doesn't care about spies, why would they care about the security of the parliaments systems. Industry 4.0 (I kid you not) is surely more important than that.
Editing hunks to be staged or removed with Git is both powerful and scary. I never remember which parts I have to remove or keep to make it work.
Number one word I can't hear anymore: Exciting. As in: I'm very excited about this exciting opportunity.
I wish people would use custom Cloudfront subdomains so I can actually reliably whitelist them.
When someone wants to know your ethnicity on a form, would you be honest, or sarcastic?
Wanted: UserScript to mark all notifications as read on Github from the toolbar. So annoying.
Ugh. Fuck ES. Seriously who builds their system in a way that I can create new entries just with a GET. And with an ID that doesn't allow me to delete it aftwards.
HTML/CSS/JS. Composability: Zero.
Aaah. Why is Angular so fucking broken.
Mmhm. Sweet new signatures. Also keybase.io, they can supplement each other.
Factor, while a bit weird, is pretty sweet. The interaction with the REPL, help system and introduction is much nicer for a newcomer than what Lisp systems typically offer IMO. (Well yes, I admit there's room for improvement.)
ELS 2015 was awesome! Just so you know.
[lisp]
DROP INDEX CONCURRENTLY. So awesome.
when nothing else helps.
No, it's not gun-nicorn. Groan.
And now I hope other people would start calling the defense budget offense, or war budget.
So at about three hundred tabs Firefox seems to have some problems with startup / shutdown. Too bad.
Worst software today: Grunt. You may blame it on my failure to understand how the plugins get default arguments and how to debug them.
PostgreSQL plus omnipitr is an awesome combination. And it's also very easy to setup. Much recommended.
Project idea: Take ttyrec and store the terminal stream (multiple even) in an Ogg container. Next sample the stream to reduce the number of "frames" and sync with audio / video streams in the file. And then obviously play it.

A fully featured build system for CL would actually include provisions for configuring a library.

Since I now have to use my VPN connection to access the internet all hosts respond with "Last login: ... from macrolet.net". Talk about branding.
Huh, (0, 1)[True] evaluates to True in Python.
[python]
19:22 <@ferada> python package management is so braindead, even with pip 19:23 <@ferada> numpy in requirements.txt isn't enough for a clean install, you first have to install numpy, then run pip install -r if other packages require numpy
[python]
Whereas Google Maps Fusion Tables layers just work. Amazing stuff.
I've had it with Elasticsearch. By default the string indexing lowercases, so if you were to search for e.g. "US", you don't get any results, whereas for "us" you do. That is so braindead and also hidden from plain sight. Hours wasted: about three.
Packaging is hard, let's go shopping!
Beware the syslog input for Logstash, replacing it with tcp + grok improves performance significantly.
A little tooltip on the notifications icon with the repositories in question and a button do dismiss them would also be very useful.
GitHub really needs automatic quoting of text posts, e.g. in issues.
Fun fact: PostgreSQL will not actually tell you that it couldn't grant some privileges because your user didn't have permissions to do it.
Pff. School is first and foremost a holding area to keep people busy.
Please. Please host your Javascript on any of your own domains, or at least get a prefix with your product/company name from wherever you get externally hosted APIs (instead of "s98m1313.cloudfront.net"). That way whitelisting isn't a complete pain to use.
Argh. Why must every language nowadays reinvent how to build, package and install stuff. That is so annoying if you want to build from source.
Unix is weird: We have both tail -f/-F and tailf, except that they're different programs, not aliases.
Passing around connection objects in Python makes it so obvious that special variables are godsend indeed.
Lolcommits has the potential to keep me entertained for the forseeable future.
Amazon just added a hundred titles via their AutoRip service to my library. That's a very pleasant surprise indeed.
config.get("foo", "floatvalue") < 0.6. FML. A warning would have been nice here.
Emacs is written in Lisp, which is the only computer language that is beautiful.[via]
Now to write an exporter from Tumblr to S-expressions. Hum, hum.
as an alternative to SimCity.
great game for the optimiser in you.
I can't help but feel that todays computing environments are largely very disconnected. With the exception of maybe some IDEs and PIMs we're using disjunct tools, very specific for one purpose, but without any integration. Continued here.
New term this week: pandiculation.
[via]Why on earth would Grunt try to open a broken symlink (a temporary one from Emacs)? Oh I know, it's probably a JavaScript phenomenon.
[rant]
Seriously, if your documentation and/or the corresponding search isn't usable without JavaScript on, you're doing it wrong.

What GitHub needs is multi-repository pull requests.
Oh yeah and today listening to Manu Chao.
Commit message of the day: STOP FEEDING OMG!"(&$^£"$"
Yay, finally got Stealth Bastard Deluxe to work on Gentoo.
GitHub should really show tags in the commits list. It's so annoying that you can't see where the last release was in that view.
hue.
New terms this week: lithobraking, controlled flight into terrain and cumulogranite. Brr.
For use with xkcd 1418.
Lisp, where people might very well ask you "Which flavour of 'if' would you like?"
[lisp]
Reading Hacker News comments now feels a lot like reddit and/or YouTube. So much hype, so much ignorance.

Don't just use a icon symbol for a function, add a tooltop/hover/whatever as well to explain that action.

How about a NLP extension for your text editor, that shifts words in time, certainty, etc. That is, from "can" to "could", from "went" to "goes" and so on. Also providing synonyms and other constructions in a similar mode to the selection of characters/words in (X11 or Emacs) input methods.
[idea]
Joda-Time (or it's successor) should be ported to CL, it's badly needed.

Beware of incoming link dump!
The only redeeming thing for Node.js is the "single language everywhere"-factor.
(global-set-key (kbd "H-1") ...) Hyper Hyper! In other words, bind Caps-Lock to Hyper and rejoice!
Lesson today: Don't (only) use glob if you want repeatable results; basically anywhere you don't sort files by some criteria.

Could we maybe revive w3m-js? (I don't actually know if it's not already in a workable state. Something to figure out I guess.) Would be very cool in order to use JavaScript-heavy websites from emacs-w3m.
The idea that content formats (not implementations) are intentionally designed to be permissive and accommodating to errors is, simply said, offputting. Fix the goddamn content instead.
