Wikipedia looks great, BoingBoing looks great, Google also has a warning but is obviously not down.

However, Reddit seems to be up :S

Computer Programming / Re: Best language for beginners?
« on: January 12, 2012, 04:50:32 pm »
I would never recommend TI-Basic as a starting language, because I soon got hooked on Goto's and other bad habits like not putting an ending quote ("). So I would recommend Python as a starting language, it's just perfect for starting, and it actually comes in handy many times in the future.

Clean syntax, easy to read, etc.

Oh ok, I don't like the new version of Ubuntu because of the way it looks lol, I think I'll be checking out that one next time I need to use linux....

Sigh. The latest version of Ubuntu has Unity interface by default, but you can change it. Never associate a distribution with its default interface, but with its default applications, package manager, etc.

I am an Ubuntu user and I use Awesome WM, which is an advanced window manager, configurable with Lua, and I love it. Just because I use Ubuntu, I don't have to use Unity.

Install Ubuntu and choose another interface:
- KDE;
- xfce;
- Gnome Shell;
- dwm;
- Awesome WM;
- xmonad;
- i3;
- Enlightement;
- Pantheon;
- etc.

All Windows and Mac OS's desktops look pretty much the same, except for riced Windows, I barely see any cool Mac OS desktop. Most GNU/Linux distributions have much more customization, besides being free as in freedom, hence I love them so much.

Still, I like some of your software :)

it's "awesome" shell =)

Not Awesome Shell, awesome WM :P

On distributions with APT, "sudo apt-get install awesome" (Ubuntu, Debian, etc.)

Quote from: Eeems
Gnome Shell is the desktop manager for Gnome 3.

Gnome Shell is Gnome's shell for Gnome 3.
Unity is Ubuntu's shell for Gnome (2 and 3).

Computer Programming / Re: Regex question
« on: January 07, 2012, 05:36:25 pm »
I'm working in Vala. I realized saying that was a bit useless because I said I'm using PCRE. Isn't PCRE what defines how it works?

I think in Vala I just need the "omega" by the way.

Is "\\mystring/" the literal you typed in?  That will search for "\mystring/".  If you are specifically trying to regex out websites, you can try something like "www(\..+)*" for instance.

No, it's not a website, the "omnimaga.org" was a bad example, let's try "omnimaga". I would have "\\omnimaga/" as the literal string, so that the \\ turns to a \. Is that alright to look for omnimaga? Thanks.

Code: [Select]
{this is a pattern}
I also found online patterns in PCRE should be like that, but it's not working either.

I am using PCRE indeed. I tried "\\mystring/", but it didn't really work. Any idea? Thanks.

Computer Programming / Regex question
« on: January 01, 2012, 03:24:44 pm »
I have a question. How can I make a regex that searches for an entire string? I've used regex's to search for symbols and specific stuff like email addresses and whitespace.

However, I just faced a new issue. How can I use a regex to search for an entire string like "omnimaga.org"? Thanks.

Great post, the last few months were not as active as last year's, but then again, last year's last months were incredibly active, so they're hard to beat.

Nice stats DJ, let's keep on going!

Miscellaneous / Re: Check this Ubuntu launchpad "bug" out!
« on: December 31, 2011, 12:30:48 pm »
apparently. And the ubuntu dev team marked it as something they'd look into...

They didn't. They marked it as Triaged, which means they think they really can't do it, but it's been looked at :P Welcome to the world of Ubuntu development, when we mark as triaged it means exactly that, triaged for eternity. Sometimes, it means we don't know how to do it and we're dependent on another package, but I'll ask Ayatana fellows and tell you guys what they really thought.

I still marked it as "It affects me." :P

Miscellaneous / Stack-like thing to eat
« on: December 30, 2011, 10:30:44 am »
I remember I read this either in Hot Dog's ASM tutorial or on the "28 days to Assembly". In one of them, and I'm pretty sure it was Hot Dog's (but I checked all the lessons), he compared the stack to some thing you eat, where the last thing you enter is the first you can eat :S

I would like to know what it was if anybody knows please.

(Also I know this sounds like a very strange thread, but bear with me please)

News / Re: Ticalc publishes 2011 POTY results
« on: December 30, 2011, 06:25:09 am »
2012 will be the year of great Lua programs :)

I don't know... With Ndless coming to a final stage, I think people will be using more and more C.

Actually, all the programs I voted for won, expect that I didn't vote for the TI-80 emulator, and I voted for Luna instead of voting for Calcnet. I thought Kerm would get his Calcnet POTY via 84+ programs and Luna was what allowed me to make Lua games for the Nspire on Linux.

Either way, congratulations to all the winners, we had a great year!
