Consider an XML file consisting of one long line of text. A diff would not be very useful in that case.


I guess an XML aware diff could work though? certainly not at all line based...


If it did node-based diffs.


Most diffs do that. The Diff that ships with gvim on Windows has this option on by default and I couldn't find where to turn it off because it was severely screwing up what I was diffing.


Bandwidth at Linode is also pooled for Linodes withing the same datacenter (of which they have 4). You can also bring up any number of Linodes and bring them down whenever you want. You will be charged for the full month but if you bring them down, they will give you credit for the unused portion of the month (rate is per day). Linode also has an API for their DNS service but I haven't really used it so I won't comment much on it. In short, Linode is a pretty good deal.

Not only that, but more importantly, on Twitter you can follow pretty much whoever you like without a required acknowledgment from the followed person/organization. To be friends with someone in FB, both parties have to agree, which pretty much sets them apart niche-wise.


Twitter's asymmetric follow is one of the killer features. GitHub has it, as well...maybe if GitHub had a status API they could be a Twitter killer.


Remember that the secret of creativity is how well you hide your sources. ;) Most creative works now stand on the shoulders of giants.


How so?


Because what they're testing (memorized "knowledge") isn't relevant in the real world (where praxis rules).


The so called "Real World" consists of 80% cram jobs - that are plain routine even a robot could do. Not much of praxis needed/ used in real world.

Not every programmer needs to be a LISP/EMACS hacker.


I wouldn't be surprised at all if she turns out to be a Lisp hacker who uses Emacs. Becoming MCP didn't close this avenue for her.
