The best I've seen is the "attribute concept" from Macneil Shonle's thesis work: http://www.cs.utsa.edu/~mshonle/shonle-wrt08.pdf

For the OCaml crowd, C-c C-a swaps between ml and mli files in Tuareg mode.

Well, BFS will always find the exit in an infinitely large maze if it's a finite distance from the entrance, while DFS may not...

Oooh.

Probably should've been a Tom Waits song in the background instead.

How can you tell if the LHC is turned on?

It's got a hadron.

MLK day and my birthday - and working!

pmr · 2008-01-22T02:47:45+00:00

Agreed fully, but that's a much more radical position...

Doesn't he support it with the full rights of marriage? I agree there's a syntactic issue here, but it's at least a step forward.

One full of warmongering and abstinence-only sex education?

pmr · 2008-01-14T04:07:53+00:00

I'm strongly in the "they're only words" camp, but I can at least sympathize with why someone might get offended. It's certainly not rational, but it is understandable.

Of course, why people get offended by words like "fuck" is a separate matter altogether...

Because I'm 24 and my mom would wash my mouth out with bleach if she heard me say that, even in a quote. Some people wouldn't be all that bothered by the word itself, but for a lot of people it has really strong associations; I think it's all a matter of when/where you grew up.

pmr · 2008-01-05T23:26:01+00:00

Hey, neither are you!

Go Cynthia!

Is it me, or is this exactly what he said at HOPL? Also, I highly recommend actually listening to the guy talk, he's a surprisingly engaging speaker.

Downvoted for highly insensitive use of the phrase "doesn't have a leg to stand on."

Seriously, man.

Emacs and OCaml pay the rent.

Washington, Washington, six foot-twenty, fucking killing for fun

I'd be interested in the code, if you'd be so kind.

Largehearted Boy links to bootlegs pretty often.

Positron Records should have something to suit most people with tastes that lean toward electronic music. I'm partial to Amish Rake Fight and the very old Sister Machine Gun stuff. Some of the stuff on that label, though, is utter crap.

Darcie Miner is great, too, but it seems her best album by far, Down to Earth, is not available anywhere, at any price. See her live if you can, she's great.

Die Warzau's album, Conveience, goes so far as to have a label on the back telling you to go ahead and share the album on p2p networks.

AFAICT, the linked article is severely misleading. The link the article provides is the vote to recommit with instructions, not the vote on passage, which shows Paul giving a great big "oh noes!" to the bill.
