brokenparser··on AngularJS change detection – draft
...but not harder and stronger.
brokenparser··on Introduction to networkd, network managment from systemd
"Hey Michael, systemd is going to handle networking!" His response: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=31g0YE61PLQ
brokenparser··on HP to begin charging for firmware updates and service packs for servers
Yep, HP made it a policy to sign all their vulnerable firmwares. The procedure remains the same: please print this document to commence firmware upgrade. See http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gRGEnakrx9o
brokenparser··on Drp.io: Fast and easy images hosting
So you have to click on the ad to select a file? Or would it support drag and drop only?

But be careful, there might be an exloit lurking inside
brokenparser··on Less Commonly Used Unix Commands
No need for Google, just use man.
brokenparser··on Your Docker image might be broken without you knowing it
So if you run anything other than Ubuntu inside Docker, this is useless because the steps to build your own aren't outlined.

I find Docker to be horribly counter-intuitive and ass-backwards anyway, so not much harm done there as people are in general better off with something else entirely (plain lxc, libvirt, virtualbox, xen, openvz...). I recommend to steer away from it at least until 1.0 is out.

EDIT: I put it in my .plan to build a better BusyBox image aimed at running statically compiled programs with minimal baggage, but I'm not sure when I'll get a round tuit*

brokenparser··on Less Commonly Used Unix Commands

  watch: execute something on a schedule *in realtime*

  printf: change the format of output

  apropos: info on commands

  dd: disk writing

  ss: socket statistics (show apps *using the Internet*)
Almost but not quite.
brokenparser··on Ask HN: What are some alternatives to HN?
Woohoo! Me too, pretty please?
brokenparser··on HTTP 308 Incompetence Expected
That will only work on Mac OS X. Just use "font-family: sans-serif", it'll look fine on any system.
brokenparser··on Show HN: A simple IP address API
A strange site, it doesn't support IP at all: http://ip6.nl/#!ipinfo.io

It merely does legacy IP, so what's the point?

brokenparser··on Flappy Space Program
That game is even worse
brokenparser··on Hemingway makes your writing bold and clear
Thanks! copy... paste...

And the results are in: http://i.imgur.com/6KMvhIa.png

(It appears that this comment itself is only good enough when I include this sentence.)

brokenparser··on Today is The Day We Fight Back
Or perhaps the NSA was set up by the campaign organisers so they would have something to run an anti-campaign against.
brokenparser··on Nokia Releasing First Android Phone
Well then he already won 17 years ago when MSFT released NetShow player for Linux and some flavours of Unix.

It was announced here a month ago: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=7037548

He's actually on a temporary asylum in Russia, his stay in Hong Kong was short lived.

brokenparser··on Mbox – A lightweight sandboxing mechanism
You might as well give them password-less sudo. Also, why are you changing permissions on the socket at all? The default is 660 which seems perfectly fine to me, if it's currently 666 you just gave everything on your box free root access.

brokenparser··on Facebook Fraud [video]
Zuckerberg isn't a con, he's an entrepreneur and a successful one at that. He even created jobs in third world countries :)
brokenparser··on Broken by design: systemd
Systemd makes my life difficult. Case in point: I want to stop cups, so I run "sudo service cups stop". This appears to work, but then it prints out a warning along the lines of:

  cups was stopped, but it can still be activated by:
  - cups.sprocket
  - cups.latch
What are these things and why are they there at all? How do I shut them off? It doesn't tell, so stopping a service has become pointless. If I tell it to stop, make it stop!
brokenparser··on JetBrains C++ IDE: Status update and Video report
What's wrong with Emacs?
brokenparser··on EA certainly isn't making it easy to give Dungeon Keeper a low rating on Android
I find this story quite sad because the original Dungeon Keeper predated app stores, shady rating techniques and was really awesome. (This: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dungeon_Keeper )
brokenparser··on Hacking Airline Lounges for Free Meals
Hello, do you happen to be one of those y'know... Terrorists?
brokenparser··on Turn It Off: NSA's Achilles' Heel
Ah, which plugin are you using? Or are you rolling your own?

Also, you need more protocol relative URIs to fix the project pages.

brokenparser··on Turn It Off: NSA's Achilles' Heel
Facebook? Really?
brokenparser··on Grunt and RequireJS are out, it's all about Gulp and Browserify
I'd say Grunt is Maven because IDEs have no way to figure out beforehand what the build process will do.
brokenparser··on How Music Hijacks Our Perception of Time
Give me back my vertical screen real estate!

(inspect element... untick position: fixed... done)

brokenparser··on US Media Blacks Out Snowden Interview
It's better for the NSA to collect all your data now than when you've set us up the bomb.

I love the irony in this flawed line of thinking here.

brokenparser··on 4 million songs on Spotify have never been played. Let’s change that
It would be nice to have this as a real Spotify app, they're written in HTML5 so it's pretty easy to do.
brokenparser··on Dutch Court of Appeals overturns Pirate Bay IP blockade
Go back to 4chan ;)
