If you’re like me, you have probably stumbled upon PyPy by now, and if you’re like me you didn’t understand exactly what it is. If you’re not like me, PyPy is a Python implementation written in Python, but, uhh, what does that mean?
The PyPy site isn’t all that helpful. It says:
I like music. I listen to it all day. I listen to all kinds of music, classical, pop, rock, metal, whatever. Obviously, there many ingenious pieces, like the Swan Lake, Falling off the Edge of
Since I’m no good at prologues, I will get right to the subject. I guess that was a prologue, though. Turns out I am a bit good at them. It wasn’t particularly good, but oh well, it serves its purpose. So, without further ado, I present to you… Hamachi!

Have you ever wondered what the joke answer to every Linux-related question (“rm -rf /”) actually does? You know it deletes everything, but have you ever seen it?

I just watched the last episode of Firefly, and I have to say, it is amazing. It is easily one of the best shows I have ever seen (together with Family Guy). If you haven’t seen it, I suggest you buy/rent/steal (I’m just kidding, I don’t think they rent it) and watch it immediately. Even if you don’t like that kind of shows (or any kind of show, or peo
When I visited Digg today I came upon this site, called Allofmp3. From it you can buy songs totally legally for as little as $0.02 per megabyte. They even have this cool service that encodes the files to whatever format you want (I recommend OGG Vorbis at Q6), so you end up paying about $3 for a whole CD (and not old ones or anything, they have almost
Today was a very important day for me. I logged on to my site to reconfigure something, and I saw some new comments posted. When I read them, I couldn’t believe my eyes! I had my first flamer! I am posting the first comment below, for posterity:
I stumbled upon a game today, it’s called Petals Around the Rose. It’s played with 5 dice, and you can only be told these three things about the game:
