they bumped the counter back up. I should have looked at the source before; it's probably been at zero for some time now, and just keeps getting reset daily. sorry about that.
not clickbait. I was just playing around again with ipv6, as I do every year or two, and noticed tunnelbroker's countdown timer rapidly approaching zero. I thought it would be fun to celebrate it, like watching the silly countdowns on new year's eve. and in my experience, on Sunday there usually aren't any bosses around to squelch merrymaking.
Israelis who eat mangos as children also possibly develop immunity to urushiol. also posted this below before seeing your comment. http://www.eoearth.org/view/ar...
the fourth amendment won't allow such intrusion into our personal belongings. Thoreau will have to be sent to China or North Korea to use his talents.
also, I'm pretty sure Henry David would not be happy with the choice of the dog's name.
besides those already mentioned, codechef.com is good for a beginner; so, I understand, is spoj.com though I haven't tried them. topcoder.com isn't bad either.
sure, I'm game. I once had a/16 flapping for hours after I made a routing change after a 3-pint lunch and couldn't figure out how to undo what I'd done. and of course my co-workers rightly hung me out to dry.
285 million addresses reserved for no compelling reason. sure, let's push onwards to ipv6, but saying "our hands are tied" when over 1/16th of the entire space is still available is a bit irritating.
there is zero need for a grid any more. wind power has been under a dollar a watt for years, and PV panels for about two years now, and I'm talking about consumer prices. the only thing keeping people from installing their own sources of electricity is laziness.
perhaps. I believe the current ubiquity of under-$100 computers is due in part to OLPC. I just wish everybody would make devices waterproof and drop-resistant by default, as the OLPC project pushed.
European countries have used milk thistle for this purpose for centuries if not millennia, but US doctors have been blocked from using it by the FDA for years; they'd rather have people die than be cured by something not patentable. hopefully this situation will change someday, even if it has to be because Merck or another Big Pharma firm comes up with a synthesized, patentable work-alike drug similar to silibinin hemisuccinate.
as others hinted, but after skimming the top comments didn't see it spelled out: if you're wearing Google Glass, thanks to the NSA's intrusive surveillance network, you're spying on all of us for free, in fact you paid to do it. that not only makes you an agent of one of the world's most evil governments, it makes you a fool. I can promise you, I won't be passive-aggressive if I see you wearing them, I'll probably be in your face.
GWB: OK Tony, it's been over three years since I knocked down the WTC... about time for you to get your ass in gear. What're you gonna do to top that?
TB: I'll see you and raise you 10, you lowlife wanker! And after it's over, we'll pass a law that makes your Patriot Act look as toothless as your mama without her dentures!
(Not sure I got it verbatim, I was crammed into an air vent and couldn't take notes till afterwards...)
Naw, he's right. Let's all go hunt down people who post lame Slashdot articles instead. The innocent animals will thank us and we'll improve the average quality of/. news.
Besides, my friends over at Church of All Worlds tell me that "the other white meat" tastes pretty good.
Maybe so, but what about this newsgroup jesusspammer who's been going hogwild for the last few days? Put 'em back on MAPS permanently for all I care, though unfortunately it won't stop this idjit.
oops, wrong, it was wav2mid.py, in the same directory. i just got it working again, under cygwin on win2k (last time i had it working, it was on an xp system). resulting midi will be the original file with a.mid extension, i.e.:
wav2mid.py ~/docs/test.wav
will result in a file ~/docs/test.wav.mid
use sndrec32 to make a simple file of yourself humming; the better the humming the better the resulting midi. has a high suck factor anyway but this was just a prototype, someday i'll work some more on it.
I hacked this together once: frequency.py but it seems to be broken now. Feel free to play around with it, meanwhile now that I know there's some interest I'll move it onto the front burner.
You'll need to download some of the other modules in the src/ directory, and get Numeric Python from sourceforge.
Bitmaps are slow, no getting around it. Is anybody ever going to resurrect NeWS?
I don't know enough about legal matters (zilch, actually) to know if Sun, Adobe, and/or Xerox would have to agree to it, or if people could just hack up something similar, as the ghostscript people did with the postscript language.

... who never saw a gun control bill he didn't like. the dystopia envisioned by Orwell cannot happen without first disarming the people.

thanks for helping enable the surveillance state to ratchet things up a notch, WPI. why can't you go back to making polywater, like back in the 70s?

it's so rare to see the word 'meme' used in its true sense any more. I'd love to see Internet memes called 'netmemes' to disambiguate the terms.
_Dark Rivers of the Heart_ by Dean Koontz. the sat is nicknamed Godzilla and a programmer, Ellie, has a backdoor into it. great book.

oops, chairdog. I had a 50% chance of getting it right before googling.

please refile under the what-could-possibly-go-wrong dept. thanks!
