robotvert··on What Was ISDN?
The condo I'm living in (in Tokyo) was built 20 or so years ago and features a karaoke room for the residents. We recently got a notice about how they will have to do a full makeover of the karaoke system because the current one only works with ISDN and the vendor is phasing out support. IIRC the quote for the makeover was around $10k

robotvert··on Tony Hawk on his skateboarding legacy
I cannot recommend enough you give half pipe a try. Not talking about mega pipes, just the small ones with little to no vert. Lots of fun and fairly safe since when you fall you _usually_ end up sliding down the curve. No need to do jumps or crazy stuff, just do tricks on the coping and enjoy the ride.

robotvert··on Ask HN: What is one Vim trick most people don't know?
`Ctrl + v` to visually select one character at a time (instead of say `Shift + v` that selects a whole line) and then use the movement keys to select a block of characters horizontally as well as vertically. Imagine several well indented HTML <li class="something"> elements, you could for instance delete/modify all the class attributes on all lines visually in one go (to insert text use `Shift + i`, type, then Esc).
robotvert··on Bootstrap 3.3.7 released, now featuring support for jQuery 3
same here, using it for internal projects where supporting old browsers is not issue, works good enough. on a different project I used one of the bootswatch themes and last I checked those were 3.x though so still hanging there.

Sorry I had to.

robotvert··on Google Calendar’s Enforced Birthdays Show the Ugly Side of Algorithms
The given solution at the end of the article to simply remove the disabled attribute didn't work on its own here because there's no event fired afterwards to persist the change.

I had to manually edit the HTML and add the onclick handler:

Note:

- change the id you pass to the onclick function to match yours if it differs.

- the "KNa" function might also be different. Check out the other checkboxes' HTML to figure it out.

BEFORE:

<input type="checkbox" id="cbm-I2NvbnRhY3RzQGdyb3VwLnYuY2FsZW5kYXIuZ29vZ2xlLmNvbQ" checked="" disabled="" class="al-ctrl al-nameref-showinlist">

AFTER:

<input type="checkbox" id="cbm-I2NvbnRhY3RzQGdyb3VwLnYuY2FsZW5kYXIuZ29vZ2xlLmNvbQ" checked="" class="al-ctrl al-nameref-showinlist" onclick=KNa(('I2NvbnRhY3RzQGdyb3VwLnYuY2FsZW5kYXIuZ29vZ2xlLmNvbQ'),(true));">

And then uncheck the box. Done.

robotvert··on Show HN: PSequel – a free PostgreSQL GUI Tool for Mac OS X
Since it's a developer oriented tool, how it's been made is always good trivia IMHO. Also helps legitimating the "Mac OS X only" part I guess.
