I post this here in attempt to fuel discussion around this structure before I begin using it as a template for open sourcing many actual packages in the next few weeks.
I can't edit my previous post anymore, if someone can maybe add something like "EDIT: copy/paste friendly version https://gist.github.com/ekyo/6383547"
or better, fix the formatting so it works...
I almost never use my browser full screen, often it's snapped with 50% width. In opera chrome and firefox, the width is a tad too big for that. It'd be nice if it was more fluid.
Well that improvement wouldn't be that useful for me tough, I'm going to integrate your website in zsh and emacs if someone doesn't do it before me.
Also, if you can make it so that the input area is still there when showing results, it saves a frequent 'back' in the case someone wants to check multiple commands.
My 2 attempts at going to university ended up being noise with little signal and I dropped out after building up some depression due to that. I had the similar issues with prior schooling and turns out building products with others seems to be the most effective way to learn for me.
It may very well not be the case for everyone so universities have their place, but there were many other flaws in the small subset I've experienced that should be fixed before I consider recommending them.
I also still have friends from that university, and most of them had to learn to self teach as soon as they got out.
So I think... in Computer Science, some people going to universities should self teach instead or find a better university. Showing childrens to teach themselves at an early age and having a school system supporting it could also be a good improvement for the future.
In your quote, the 'all' is probably an over-statement. But more people could give it a try.
I'll experiment with this a bit to see for myself but I would really appreciate a list of downsides of using this over mongo; if anything else than there may be less people supporting it.
"Who cares if Samsung" made a pale and horrid replica of what "Apple" is buying screens from them for.
Apple is probably one of Samsung's biggest clients.
I think patents shouldn't exists but... there's no point in making a copy of something else if you can't improve it... and Samsung couldn't even make the device decent.
You will probably want to learn elisp(emacs lisp) to configure your emacs further.
Keep yourself up to date and don't lose your time learning VB, flash, java or outdated things like that. These are dying. Focus on languages that you think will be wonders in 2 years. I personally suggest these at the moment:
D (dlang.org)
Haskell
Think more about the programs you use, what makes them awesome and what could improve them, only thinking about it regularly should help you make better ones yourself.
At your age I was programming way too much and had an over optimizing approach with everything. While seeing how to optimize most things is great, don't do it. Productivity is far more important.
I'd suggest going to the beach with friends as often as you can.
Don't learn languages past your first from books, learn to search in documentation and try to answer questions on stackoverflow for that language.
Follow your passion, don't become a tool unless that's really what you want.
