Don't worry. We did a blind selection. We did not know which gender the person has when selecting the talks.

We just wanted this for our statistics to get a feeling if we needed to work on the CfP while it was open to get the outreach we wanted it to have.

The shower in my parents house has this. Since 1984. Mechanically. And working perfect.

The language is not important. There is another factor that is way more important:

Do you know people using one of the languages? If yes, you could ask them about problems you have. Will be easier than going to stackoverflow.

It is not abandoned. Just look at the github repo. I get updates for my TextMate 2.0 at least weekly.

I don't think this is needed anymore. We have a avconv pipeline already working right now :) .

We thought of this, but using this service would have been against the rails rumble rules

There are a few Kinect projects for this, one example is this:

But sign language not only consists of the hand movements. The fingers and lips are important, too. The kinect resolution is not good enough for those right now. And don't forget the facial expressions.

See this awesome comic for an explanation:

This would change my work from a hobby to being a business. If someone pays for a ticket, the roles change a bit. The person who pays will expect something from you. I personally would not do that. If you like what I do, send me a beer afterwards. Or a gittip or a flattr. But don't pay me money.

That is not the only option he added. But a final info from him how he sees reeder in the future would be great.

Ah, great! Thanks for this !

Basically I am waiting for the Reeder App Guy to Announce what he will do with the app. If he goes the "give me an google api compliant endpoint and it will connect to it", I might use https://github.com/swanson/stringer , looks really promising so far. But I need Reeder to support it first.

You should use some sort of caching. If you have a wordpress blog, there are several caching plugins that generate files for your Articles. Serving files instead of generating the stuff via php is way faster.

I <3 Uberspace. The service is great, the people are awesome. Jonas visited us at our Ruby Usergroup Booth on the Sigint last year and we talked about problems he had supporting ruby on the machines. Great guy!

If there is an event missing, just add it. The wiki is open for all!

It even says 33 for over 50 year old folks here

Does that thing just throw random numbers between 28 and 33 ? Looks like that if I read the comments :D .

Night on Earth. 5 cities, 5 cab drivers, 5 stories. Just beautiful storytelling. If you haven't seen it, you totally should

This is misleading. Windows 8 has just passed 10.7.4. There are 3 more recent Mac Versions that have a higher install base than Windows 8. Hell even Windows XP has more Users than Windows 8.

I hope they remove that Meredith Character completely from Meetup.com and change the policies to prevent hostile group takeovers in the future.

Have you been contacted by meetup.com till now? Why don't they react on this shit?

That Women deactivated the feature to see who is a member of that group. We can't contact all of them, only the people we know. Manually.

I was removed from the group, too.

The link was to a public post on that group that described the situation. That post was removed as was the complete discussion and mailing list

Vidar hat problems with the payment of the group and was in discussion with meetup to fix this. While a group is in an "unpaid" state everyone can step in and pay the fee to get full admin rights to the group. After getting full admin rights, that Women removed Vidar, renamed the group and removed the discussion form and mailing list.

This is really bad that this can happen.

Okay, the link is now dead. A women called Meredith did a hostile takeover of the hacker news cologne meetup group and renamed it. She removed Vidar, the main organizer from the Admin list and now has full controll of the meetup group.

This is outrages that it is even possible to do this.

AND the google jquery cdn cache :)

OpenStreetMap is no crappy source anymore. Have you looked at the data recently ?

If I overestimate it, why do all python devs I talk to still use 2.x and say that they can't use 3.x because all kind of problems?

Django is not ready for python 3.x right now. The support for 3.x is in "beta" right now. I hope when the final 3.x support is released, a lot of more traction is going on towards 3.x . The current state is pretty bad :(.
