That was back in the day when there still was IE for the Mac, so that *had* to be installed. I kept moving it around on the desktop (replacing with the Safari icon) in the hopes that lessons would be learned.

I'm hoping you've got a macro for this. Otherwise that really would take a while. I'm impressed though.

Sort of. IIRC it took about 30-60 minutes a year or so ago when I was really bored.
0) Drew it with X and O in Excel.
1) Saved as CSV to import into a text editor.
2) Used a regex to turn it into a set of X| and
3) Twiddled manually to get a somewhat better fit.
Now I just recycle[^] it as needed.
Did you ever see history portrayed as an old man with a wise brow and pulseless heart, waging all things in the balance of reason?
Is not rather the genius of history like an eternal, imploring maiden, full of fire, with a burning heart and flaming soul, humanly warm and humanly beautiful?

The latest effort, from researchers at Germany's Karlsruhe Institute of Technology, has set a new world record for wireless data transmission. They've managed to hit 100 gigabits per second while transmitting data over 20 meters, using a frequency of 237.5 GHz. A previous effort by the same group reached 40 Gbps over 1 kilometer. Frying everything that moved between the two antennae

...transmit data at 100Gbps and/or shoot down planes.... two birds with one super highly concentrated stone.

So the focus is on Gbps over space? or is there a ratio?

Microsoft's Scroogled campaign seems to actually be having a decent effect on the public's perception and trust in the Google brand. In fact, it's even pushing some to make the switch from Google services like search and Gmail over to Microsoft's Bing and Outlook email. "You can fool some of the people some of the time..."

Huge collection of (seemingly) legal programming books. Ex libris internetis

There is also this link it-ebooks.info ... But I'm almost sure that some of these books should be sold and not freely distributed...

Yeah, that one is looking more than a little bit shady.

Governments at all levels have been using GitHub for some time now to build better, more accessible websites, publish laws and data, and even collaborate on policies themselves.
Today we're proud to announced the launch of government.github.com, a website dedicated to showcasing the amazing efforts of public servants and civic hackers around the globe. Fork the government (before they fork you)

I believe pitch we had already here...

Apparently our NSA buddies have a bit of a spam problem. Think about it. If they're grabbing every bit of email metadata they can get their hands on, what are they really getting? "But what's puzzling you is the nature of my game"

That's a whole lot of viagra adds...

Likely not. For their purpose, weeding out spam is very easy - spam is a one-way communication.
Spam is sent from hacked email accounts, (almost) every spam mail I receive was sent from a different account. And I never reply to it. When they try to build up the communication network, such spam mails can consequently be identified easily. Far easier for the NSA who have all of them than for us who receive only one copy each time.
When you want to trick the NSA with the spam, just send some totally unrelated emails to the senders and other addresses you found in cc somewhen later on. And also do that from a different account than the one receiving the original message...

If you use Open Source software, then giving vocal support really makes a difference to that Open Source Project as well as the open source community as a whole. We make it really easy for you to say what projects you use in your applications. Share the love

Ruby is a dying language. Business is over its dalliance with Ruby. No major startup is lauding their use of Ruby and existing businesses are migrating away or simply writing new applications in a different language. Ruby is dead. Long live the Ruby.

The next major operating system incarnations will be available as ISOs and as virtual machines. Yes, this is a prediction on my part but it's a very good one. And he's virtually correct

I already have 8 out of 10 servers virtual. So be able to by it as ready-made VM image will save a lot of time.
It's already exist for Linux distros - http://www.thoughtpolice.co.uk/vmware/[^]
And Microsoft offered images for Visual Studio 2012, Internet Explorer and Windows 8 testing...
