grapjas··on Redis-V8
Stop it with the smileys.
grapjas··on Statically Recompiling NES Games into Native Executables with LLVM and Go
Interesting stuff, and I like the writing style.
grapjas··on A better git log
I do the same for various other git commands, such as git checkout ('gc').

The only problem is that this breaks git tabcomp. Haave you (or anyone else) dealt with this?

grapjas··on A Pythoneers directory
But it is sexist/discriminating https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Affirmative_action
grapjas··on Relative Line Numbers in Vim
Yes! Usually it's not a problem, but every now and then relativenumber really kills performance.

The last time I noticed this was with valgrind logs; and I have no idea what exactly is causing it (amount of lines doesn't seem to be it).

Thankfully it's perfectly usuable for day-to-day editing. Binding :set rn! to a key circumvents this problem well enough.

grapjas··on OHM2013 - a 5 day hacker/maker camp in The Netherlands
There's a typo

grapjas··on An Honor for the Creator of the GIF
What resources did you use to implement gif89a?

You already mentioned the specification ( http://www.w3.org/Graphics/GIF/spec-gif89a.txt ). Did you use anything else?

grapjas··on Store arbitrary files with Flickr's new 1TB storage limit
Doesn't this already exist? Multiple times?

Oh well, obvious 'exploit'. Wondering how Y! will react. They must've forseen this, right?

grapjas··on Vim hall of honour
Not to mention the names of his scripts are the best
grapjas··on Sign up for the SICP Blitz in London happening in June
Wish there was one in my area
grapjas··on ASM
>But I returned to LB as a better programmer.

In what way? (Not meant to be accusing, just curious)

grapjas··on I pirated Game of Thrones season premiere
But not because of technical reasons. See: Steam.
grapjas··on Ubuntu tapped by China for national operating system
AV/firewall software already exists for linux. I don't really see how it would change muc, aside from popularity.
grapjas··on How a UK company handled an offensive private joke
I doubt the situation is better now than if he had simply ignored the joke.
grapjas··on Does vintage kernel sound better than more recent one?
4) Kernels sound better after they've been worn in a bit. Don't expect your newly built 2.4 kernel to have that warm sound until you've run with it for a few weeks, but for a really classy sound here's a trick: compile the kernel and then put it somewhere safe (ext2 partition, obviously) to mellow for a month and then boot into it at the last minute before you start recording an important session. Your clients will thank you.

This is a joke, right?

grapjas··on Why do game developers prefer Windows?
You generally don't develop for a single distro: you develop for linux. Which then works on every distro. If you're optimistic enough you could even try to make it work for every *nix, but whatever.

The only reason steam is made specifically for ubuntu is because it uses apt-get to actually get steam. If valve put more effort into making it like every other linux application nobody on any distro would have trouble running it.

grapjas··on How I Hacked Any Facebook Account Again
It's called cracking
grapjas··on Results of the 2013 /r/Linux Distro Survey
Ubuntu is less strict on the non-free thing. Either way it doesn't really matter since you can use PPAs from ubuntu on debian and vice versa. Obviously the same goes for .deb

I think ubuntu LTS gets packages from wheezy and normal ubuntu from sid.

grapjas··on Ask HN: Webdevs, designers: what devtools should we (Mozilla) build in Firefox?
Not related to devtools but please make the facebook addon or plugin or whatever removable
grapjas··on Don't be mean, it's stupid
No, you're thinking of REPL
grapjas··on Solving Problems Using Data Structures
Can't items leave when getting kicked out by a new item?

grapjas··on Zuck, Bill Gates, Jack Dorsey In Short Film To Inspire Kids To Learn How To Code
Or compare the public reaction of the death of Steve Jobs vs. the death of David Ritchie
grapjas··on Only Apple and Google are skating to where the puck is going
Chromebook used to be locked down iirc. Anyway it isn't anymore, so yes you can install *nix or whatever on it.
grapjas··on Object Oriented Design principles Java programmers should know
How is any of this specific to the mess of the language that is Java?
