If I sat on a beach, I'd have to take a computer with me...


Do thieves understand this?


Crackheads trying to get their next fix just take any sort of electronics and get $10-20 for it. It doesn't generally matter what it is - they'll take it if they can get their hands on it & want to unload it ASAP. If they've been strung out & off the grid long enough, they might not know the difference between a walkman and a iPhone.

A professional thief, OTOH, probably does know what's worth taking and what's worth keeping. The problem is that, while committing a robbery, you don't exactly have the time or resources to go on eBay and price check everything you see. It's more practical to take everything that might be valuable & then figure out what's worth trying to sell after the fact.


A successor to 3M? I suppose there's always the old "MM" notation, or it could be written "9m".


"9 million" would work, too.


I like the detailed number it now has


Yeah, I feel like on some days I have no ideas and on others I can just churn out a whole bunch of them. Most of them are crap but as long as the average is >1/day then all's good.

Do you find yourself interacting much with people in the co-working space? I don't have much experience with work (period) so I don't really know what the atmosphere's like.


Doesn't zsh do something like this? At the very least, it seems to be extensible enough that you could provide completion+manpage documentation if you wanted to.


Zsh certainly does something like this.

Here's what my autocompletion looks like: http://leukensis.org/files/zsh-autocomplete.png

The program has to provide its autocomplete files, but it's very powerful. My 'kill' autocompletes with a ps-like output, for example.


Does zsh support matching long and arguments? That's what I want. A bit like fish (http://fishshell.com/assets/img/screenshots/man_completions....) and finalterm which others have mentioned.


What specific areas are you interested in?


Thank you for your comment. I'm especially interested by home automation and data mining.


How Snowden is treated sets a precedent for future U.S. dissidents of any kind. You might not care for or about him, but what happens to him sure as hell matters.


Almost as much as color.com?


Or the British term: "Champagne Socialist".


I like the content on there, I really do. But why the hell do you have to sign up just to read it?


I agree. I can't imagine it is working out for them.
