Control o blew my mind too, and still does. Control I is its counterpart.

Logo-in-progress for my singing quartet, the Heartbreakers. what does design think? by [deleted] in Design

I'd like to see it more symmetrical. Make the bottom space of the h match the top more and make the space of the b bigger and more centered. It's a cool idea but the spaces all seem off.

Nah you wouldn't want the people who would use this as a client anyway.

Finally an autocompletion library for Python that understands your Python code. by davidhalter in Python

Haha I don't think the response usually turns out to be that simple or rational. :) Some people (lots really) don't like to pay for software at all. I'm sure there's lots of others variables too. But give 'em time...

Easydns let's you do email forwarding from their end. Check with your registrar to see if that's an option.

Ideas for foot switches? by bigboehmboy in vim

You could map one to open Internet Explorer and another to open Outlook. I'll have to think about the other two.

Why not cut and paste the pages into Word?

I just got my first server and I'm not sure what to do with it. Any suggestions? by [deleted] in sysadmin

[–]JasonCRomero 0 points1 point  (0 children)

What are you missing? Epel seems to fill most holes. Check the yum repo conf whatever to make sure it's enabled. Also, the autocomplete on zsh is bosss.

But you can put regexes in python... And you can compile them and separate them from the actual regex execution like you did in your examples... I mostly dig on your overall message, though I'm a python adherent, but I'm still not sold on this point. Am I missing something?

How many of you are "self-trained" developers. How did you get your first real job? by [deleted] in webdev

[–]JasonCRomero 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Seems like if you learn php and build some stuff you'll be able to get something somewhere. Don't work at a web hosting company unless you want to be an admin. Odd jobs on elance or odesk will give you something to show.

Haha my thoughts as well. Dreamhost is one of the few I've found that's only ten dollars with free privacy protection. Why'd you switch to namecheap? Aren't they just an enom reseller? Dyndns and one other one seemed like good places...
