This seems to be valid compared to numbers released in April 2013 [1]. GitHub is growing fast.

This is really cool. Thanks for posting that!

Don't use too many aliases, a dozen generic ones should do it, learn to use reverse history search (usually mapped to Ctrl-r) instead.

Once you get used to it, your brain just triggers this combination whenever the command is more complex than let's say `ls -al`. This means you have to change some habits like to `tail` your logs with absolute paths, so you don't need to `cd` into the folder first, etc.

There's a Margherita as discribed in my earlier comment available at Santa Lucia[1].

That's the very reason this will lead to nowhere...

A good (e.g. not the crap from Domino's which is overpriced in CH anyway) italian Pizza Margherita made in a wood oven with a size of around 33cm costs CHF 17 (~$19) in Zurich.

It's the wood that makes it good.

The version for Stylish was broken. Fixed here: https://gist.github.com/pstadler/5684154

No End in Sight[1] is my favorite.

A documentary about the Iraq occupation starting in 2003. It's a sad story - no room for heroes - as the iraqi people lost everything.

I did the same on https://www.mila.com

It's fairly simple but it took some time to figure out the right sequence and timing for it to run smoothly across all devices / browsers.

`yes` is an excellent tool for simulating CPU load:

    CORES=4
    for i in {1..$CORES}; do yes > /dev/null &; done

The main reason I'm still using Firefox as my main browser is Firebug, which is still better than the competition. Unfortunately it's a memory hog and dramatically slows down the whole browser. So my vote goes to performance improvements for Firebug.

HFCS is not banned in the EU, but its production is limited to 5% of total sugar production.

"Which foods and beverages contain GFS?

Because of the limited availability in Europe, the products in which GFS is used, are those where the sweetening power and other qualities are needed simultaneously. Examples of this can be found in baked goods, cereal products, confectionery, jams and preserves, yogurts and other dairy products, condiments (e.g. mustard and ketchup), canned and packed goods. The use of GFS in soft drinks has been limited as this application needs a fructose content of 42% or higher to give the desired sweetness and GFS is not available in sufficient quantities to be widely used in soft drinks. In the EU, soft drinks continue to be sweetened mostly with sucrose, when in the US, they are sweetened with HFCS."

Definitely the right answer to gpg's "Please do some other work to give the OS a chance to collect more entropy!"

Come on, not everything is for free.

A lot of you prefer ST over all the free or cheaper alternatives out there. At least I do, and that's why I can live with the fact of paying somebody 30 bucks to continue the development (for another year, or two?) of an awesome piece of software that I use daily.

There's a similar project made by students at ZHAW (a swiss university of applied science) but only covering planes on swiss radars. Check it out here: http://radar.zhaw.ch/radar.html

definitely.

"Some high level stats since I put Google analytics on my blog on February 28th, 2011. I never spent money on SEO, I did do an experiment for a month- buying twitter ads."

It seems like he's associating SEO with running (Google-)ads, which is simply wrong and therefore this blog post is pretty much nonsense.

Looking forward to seeing Santa quickly dropping by on Christmas Eve.

Most of the search results are outdated, inaccurate or no longer existing. I'm always looking for alternatives, but this is not the one. Google is still so much better and/or faster than other search engines, including DuckDuckGo.

Really not worth a discussion as this functionality is probably around since the first web browser implemented JavaScript. I don't know anyone who's actually giving that "hover" target-preview attention anyway. On the other hand, preventing this is not a solution. It would break patterns for AJAXified navigation.

This submission is just wrong. Sure, the new maps suck, but really? Who is upvoting such a crap?

You're right. Good to know that man checks this path by default. I'm using a custom path for homebrew, that's why I added /usr/local/homebrew/share/man to the $MANPATH.

Don't forget to add the following line to your .bash<whatever> to make the man pages of your custom software accessible:

    export MANPATH=/usr/local/share/man:$MANPATH

This works for packages installed with homebrew and othe software that follows the standards.

For Terminal.app I still prefer Optometrist: https://github.com/pstadler/optometrist

Disclaimer: I'm the creator of the mentioned theme.

I solely use dark themes for editors and terminals.

I originally used "Tomorrow Theme - Solarized was yesterday" as a title for this post. However, I agree with the crowd that this title was a little bit to agressive (some might call it marketing).

I never liked Solarized, for me this is a replacement for the awesome Twilight theme.

You should really try ack (http://betterthangrep.com) as a replacement for grep.

No problem with FF 14.0.1 on OSX for me as well.

I guess you're right. Though I never recognized this before and since I'm using Alfred, I don't touch Spotlight that often.

Somehow off topic but this is a very neat trick: You can preview the selected item directly in the Spotlight menu by pressing the left arrow key.

Nice plugin!

Pro tip: Instead of restarting finder run `qlmanage -r`
