I am rebelling against Python PEP 8. All of my Python code from now will be indented in increments of 2.3 spaces.

I have a namespace! It's between my first and last!

It seems like most Associated Content stuff is written by people that know nothing of what they speak of.

I would probably hate pair programming with anybody other than a stuffed animal.
from
I've pair programmed a few times. I've also quad programmed. Unless you know the person you're working with, and work really well together, it's a *nightmare*. Give me code audits any day. - i80and

Just accidentally referred to Africa as a nation, and then quickly caught my mistake. See? It happens to normal people too.

I just found this week-old article about Fedora 13, but my goodness--I think I might switch from Ubuntu. http://www.linux-mag.com/id...
from
Agree it sounds like a distro worth looking into. I never thought I'd ever return to Fedora. - Jack&Cleo

The poor English writing of a foreigner making an effort is different from that of a lazy native speaker.

I think that's only easy to delete your Facebook account if you are a popular blogger who is easier to find through other means anyway.

With all this Android hype over newer phones, is the Droid outdated already?
from
James Rishabh Mishra
Cool new Android phones are coming out so fast now that I don't know what to feel jealous about anymore.

I wish comparative Linux distro reviews didn't use screenshots of the distros' blank desktops. That only tells the WM and wallpaper

Sure, there is an option in Linux Google Chrome to use the default window bar, but that is horribly ugly.
from
James Rishabh Mishra
User interface horror: Ubuntu 10.04's window buttons are on the left, yet Google Chrome still keeps them on the right.
from
Is "Use system title bar and borders" enabled in the options? Are you using the GTK+ theme? - i80and
Oh, I'm aware of that option, but yeah, that does make Chrome look ugly. - James Rishabh Mishra

Why do families go to casinos for vacations? So the children can witness the emptying of their college funds?

Open source analogy: Would you live in a democracy where progress is slow, or a lovely dictatorship that could turn against you?
from
False dichotomy; with devices, one may have dual citizenship :P - i80and
Dual citizenship is practical in some cases, like dual-booting Linux and Windows, but what about mobile devices? Do I want to carry a Nexus One and an iPhone? To use Internet-requiring apps on both of them requires either two data plans or switching the SIM cards when you wan to use the other phone. - James Rishabh Mishra

The Ubuntu 10.04 switch to titlebar buttons on the left showed me my habit of flicking my mouse to the right when I want to close a window.

So today, Vonage called my Vonage phone to ask if I wanted to switch to Vonage. The salesperson WAS very convincing, though.

Google Shopping shows that 8 GB of RAM costs more than I expected. I don't think I'll be able to find it for significantly under USD $200.
from
What do you need 8GB for? - i80and
Running Firefox with more than ten tabs. My system with 2 GB of RAM just can't handle Firefox, OpenOffice, Pidgin, Rhythmbox, and a few other desktop-y stuff. - James Rishabh Mishra
4GB works pretty well for me. Of course, I whine to no end about just having to run DBus, so I'm probably a poor gauge... - i80and
