The name is a joke, from wikipedia, "Stalin brutally optimizes". Very much true. You know, it would be quite an undertaking to find russian tech guys offended by this name.

And I've also found https://github.com/n4kz/stalin.js by a russian guy - Joseph Stalin => stalin.js - Badass mustache compiler

Tried to visit gogs demo page, but "502 Bad Gateway", so I'll stay with Gitlab for quite a while.

A lot of people mentioned that Gitlab installation is painful, but for me it was rather simple albeit a bit long. Probably the "IKEA effect" makes me love this awesome project even more.

Busybox, lvm and some other similar packages are frequently static in GNU/Linux for obvious reasons.

Or, this wont change until society evolves.

It truly was an option. Patting myself on the back now for taking half an hour to research it two years ago. Although one can disassemble X200 with (relative) ease.

I store credit card details in a password manager that allows free-form entries (for example "pass").

You can use orange/yellow tinted glasses instead of f.lux, also works vs other sources of blue light.

Alcohol damages skin in the long term, there are a lot of safer antiseptic options.

Probably it's better than Rust and Go via more powerful macro system, although I'm not very sure because reasoning about macros is kind of hard.

Or, they could like look around the house and spot children toys lying around the front yard.

Quite a lot of plastics leach chemicals that can have estrogenic activity, according to this study http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC3222987/ Take it with a grain of salt though.

Plan9 can probably gain traction in something completely different than workstations or even servers, more like embedded or highly specialized devices. Just like a lot of people say, often one needs single killer app.

That's my favourite list https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_fictional_female_robot... for naming things.

I've taken a lot of awesomeness from that list http://namingschemes.com/Psychotic_Computers

I have similar story, probably cultivating beneficial flora is the missing part.

By the way, there're very effective cleansers with ammonia eating bacteria that get rid of cat's urea smell.

I love Redis so much, it became like a superglue where "just enough" performance is needed to resolve a bottleneck problem, but you don't have resources to rewrite a whole thing in something fast.

Probably the most convenient tunnelling tool I've ever used.

When paranoia strikes me really hard I run Tails liveCD in VirtualBox, it automagically routes everything through TOR and virtually nothing goes to hdd, except probably swapping to disk.

I don't understand what are you talking about. In almost every linux terminal you can scroll with PageUp/Down and with mouse on most X ones(ex.: rxvt, xfce-terminal). In tmux one can press ctrl+b -> PageUp and scroll with keyboard or mouse.

edit: corrected hotkeys

What really troubles me about Putin is that he and his government is way ineffective. There are no brave people, only loyal. Their money are in the west banks, as are their safe retreats.

And what is much more troubling - almost every country with powerful ruling class is like that. As people say "паны дерутся, а у хлопцев чубы трещат" (=when those in power, the superiors, are in conflict, it is the common people, the subordinates, who suffer). And curse those Ukrainian officials who let it escalate to this.

Why would any sane sniper shoot medics to death? What are they, instantly healing combatants to full hp? Even if snipers would be so evil, it's much more demanding for the enemy to have wounded people because it distracts and takes off resources.

Sniper tactics is completely different from shooting non-priority targets, it's usually enemy leaders, machinegunners, other snipers and so on. Medics are civilians and only provocators would choose them as targets.

Why do people on video wear non-military boots, yellow identification stripes, use outdated weapons and can't hold a gun right? I mean with left hand, there are no left-handed versions, especially so old, used rounds will hit user's face. And that "sniper" actually doesn't shoot at all. And leaves only _after_ everybody moved back, leaving him exposed. That's ridiculous.

And, one can use tools like "Certificate Patrol" (Firefox addon) to ensure cert isn't changed.

That's actually not so different from usual way. Matter of trust is generally hard.

Now try to compare the number of genuine smiles with whole face (including facial muscles near eyes) between russian and american people, i think that it wont differ much.

He isn't grumpy, I assure you.

Or, you know you can watch "12 chairs" on youtube with subtitles, for example https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZNZkUt0ePas . Dunno if it works in all coutries, though.

I suppose it wont last long past Sochi-2014 Olympics.

Oh-my-zsh has a plugin 'cp' which is basically an alias: alias cpv="rsync -poghb --backup-dir=/tmp/rsync -e /dev/null --progress --"
