  1. Re:Perl doesn't kill readability... on Randal Schwartz's Perls of Wisdom · · Score: 1

    Common Lisp is always strongly typed. Perhaps you mean that it's dynamically typed and that type declarations are optional.

  2. Re:3ware 9500 is dog slow.. on Comparison of Nine SATA RAID 5 Adapters · · Score: 1

    Try using them in JBOD mode and software RAID-5, that works much better here and gives more flexibility too.

  3. Re:Sawfih wiki on A Preview of Ximian's Gnome 2.0 Desktop · · Score: 1

    Here is what I have in my .sawfishrc:

    (setq customize-command-classes '(default viewport))
    (setq viewport-dimensions '(4 . 3))

    I use Sawfish without Gnome but I think this should work with Gnome as well.

  5. Re:netbsd ... on The NetBSD Organization · · Score: 1

    Is NetBSD really more portable than Linux? I know that NetBSD fans love to claim this but is it really true? What are some platforms that NetBSD runs on but Linux doesn't? There are many pieces of hardware where NetBSD won't run or is not practical, for example anything with more than 1 CPU (yeah, I know there is some rudimentary SMP support but it's not usable for real work) or my Sharp Zaurus.

  6. Re:These are the days on Mozilla 0.9.6 Released · · Score: 1

    > Plugin missing popup isn't so annoying (I refuse to install flash)

    Just delete plugins/libnullplugin.so (or the equivalent if not using Unix)

  7. zsh has an sh compatibility mode on A Real Bourne Shell for Linux? · · Score: 1

    From the zsh manual:

    "Zsh tries to emulate `sh' or `ksh' when it is invoked as `sh' or `ksh' respectively."

    I don't know how strict the sh emulation mode is.

  8. MAXIMA, JACAL on Open Source Symbolic Math Program? · · Score: 1

    MAXIMA is a Common Lisp implementation of the famous Macsyma system.

    JACAL is a Scheme/SLIB based symbolic mathematics system.
