Afaik the main reason for base58 is making it impossible to mistake an 'I' for an 'l', etc.
Beeing able to always double-click is a nice added bonus, though.

That is not an honest comparison, though.

would be var getCodec = require("iconv-lite").getCodec;
Re:Compyx: creating a multicolor 8‑bit font for browsers

It would be interesting to know if this transformative use of the multicolor charsets counts as copyright infringement.
I know "normal" (vector) fonts are not protected by copyright because they don't cross the threshold of originality, but I personally wouldn't lump the examples in the article into the same category.
In any case it is really interesting to see how much creativity was put into the distribution of warez…
Re:Counterparty: Peer-to-Peer Finance on Bitcoin

Every Bitcoin address includes a checksum at the end, so while you can make up any address like in this example, the checksum still needs to be correct in order to form a valid address.
It's a great feature against typos, btw.

It might not have been a "commercial success", but one has to appreciate the irony of you arguing against the impact of NeXT while using a medium that was invented/first developed on this platform:

Re:Why Atom Can’t Replace Vim – Learning the lesson of vi

I couldn't have said it better.
Also, I have yet to see a more compelling example of clever composition in vim than "delete 3 lines" (which even I do when rarely using vim).
Re:Why Atom Can’t Replace Vim – Learning the lesson of vi
on Sunday June 01, 2014 @08:22AM (#7828923)
I would strongly disagree that atom commands are not "composable" (though it depends on your workflow/mental model). To take the select/delete example: atom can select to the end of the line, and it supports the delete key.
How is select-than-delete not composition?

He is using a hack to store the GitHub pages.
That this is even possible is due to the awesomeness of git.
Since it is a hack, you have to be careful what you're doing.
He should have done all the gh-pages stuff in a separate clone. The GitHub instructions where he pasted the branch creation commands from also tells you to do just that.
Keep the pages branch in a clone of the repo inside the repo, just in a folder called 'docs'. You'll never have to mess with these branches, as you can generate docs, commit and push from a Makefile.

So, when thought through, what he is proposing is just "Literate Programming" <http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Literate_programming>.
It has been around since Knuth coined it in the seventies, but I guess it is one of those concepts just bound to be "reinvented" by every new generation.
