All my VMs run 10.04. Been thinking that when it gets too old due to the packages supported getting to far out of date, I'll just switch to Debian.

If you suggested to a Starcraft 2 pro that they should stop using the keyboard shortcuts because they are slower, you would be laughed out of the building. Erik Naggum was on the ball with that one - it is impossible to acquire muscle memory for mouse movements because there is no base position from which all movement actions are performed.

Take it back to reddit please. We don't need memes to communicate here.

I hope not. The Skype client on iOS is really handy.

I wish there was an MG warning tag on this post. I can't stand that guy's writing style.

I agree. I'm not looking forward to the inevitable changes Salesforce brings to Heroku. Others will pop up to take their place though.

Watch some of the day[9] dailies at http://day9tv.blip.tv and you'll improve at least a little bit. Watch the episode on the Mental Checklist (http://day9tv.blip.tv/file/3732340/) first.

Yeah add my recommendation for RH. I've been with them for about 3 years, they've been fantastic.

"Playing with random OSS projects is much easier on Linux"
I couldn't agree more. I am primarily a .NET/Windows programmer, but I have an Ubuntu VM that I have been using to hack on OSS-based work I've been doing recently. Package managers make it super simple to get everything up and running quickly, and mean I can keep each of my machine's VMs up to date with whatever new thing I'm mucking around with.

I submitted a spam report about that site the other day. I've been getting up to scratch on ruby and a lot of searches for gem names return that site. I have gotten so used to trusting the top results in Google that I never think to check the domain - I need to stop that.
