What exactly were you looking for?

I can't reproduce.

    ubuntu@ip-10-130-57-139:~$ php -v

Thanks for replying! I didn't see anything on pageload. I'm on Chromium 8.0.552.224 (68599) Ubuntu 10.10.

(EDIT: I reloaded again, and I saw a bar come down asking if I can give this site my location. The bar was in light blue, and it was well camouflaged with the title of your page, and it also disappeared in a few seconds, so I never saw it the first time)

I can't figure out how to change my location from Manhattan (I'm in Australia)

I seem to remember other programming languages (and programs that run code not included with the application) being banned on the app store. Did something change? Or are you compiling down to JavaScript to get around the limits?

We had a mortgage reduction bomb a while ago. It didn't work out well for very many people.

It's a compatibility branch, only getting bugfixes. The v0.3 branch is where new development is happening.

I agree with you, but I think your appeals to 'the obvious' and 'the simple reality' are weak.

The best hacks are the ones that are so silent, you never hear about them.

I'm sure those graphs are interesting, but they're so small that I can't read them, at all.

Development is still happening at http://gitorious.com/fish-shell

I don't think you're going to get a good data set with a poll. Just get the one with the lowest ping times from your location.

Apparently VNC does it better. And most X apps these days use D-Bus for communication anyway, so you can't run those over a network link.

Google uses jQuery. Check out the source of http://code.google.com/

You can't because Oracle has the patents covering technologies that are needed to implement Java.

don't forget

No stylebot? For me, it's the biggest innovation in CSS editing since Firebug.

What are these features?

Doesn't sound like it. Sounds like you need a setuid binary on a filesystem you can link to.

You can use find to see if you have a setuid binary anywhere in your filesystem:

    find / -perm -4000 2>/dev/null

Just tried this on an older box, and it worked. Libc version 2.5

    $ /lib/libc.so.6 | head -1
    GNU C Library stable release version 2.5, by Roland McGrath et al.

On Ubuntu 10.04 LTS I hit the assertion they talk about, and it fails:

    $ LD_AUDIT="\$ORIGIN" exec /proc/self/fd/3
    Inconsistency detected by ld.so: dl-open.c: 231: dl_open_worker: Assertion `(call_map)->l_name[0] == '\0'' failed!

Not a bug - it's part of RVM's design.

RVM reads .rvmrc files in each directory you change into. How does it do this? By redefining 'cd' to be a function wrapping the real CD command, with some extra RVM stuff in between the changing of directory and return.

Check it out: http://github.com/wayneeseguin/rvm/blob/master/scripts/cd

My problems ('cd' with no arguments didn't take me back to my home directory any more) occurred about a month ago (I was using the fish interop mode - that might have been the problem), and it's probably been fixed since. But the whole thing scared me out of continuing with RVM.

If there's a bug in RVM, I sure as hell don't want it to manifest in my 'cd' command. I need to be able to change directory, and my scripts rely on it to always work.

I don't use RVM, and I've got a few excuses:

RVM doesn't work with fish. Fish is the biggest innovation in command-line shells in so long, and I'd rather drop RVM than drop fish.

Also, RVM hijacked my 'cd' command, so that 'cd' wouldn't take me back to my home directory any more.

I don't like things messing with workhorse commands that I depend on - 'cd' has to work.

No - the estimates I've seen have always been 'the space will run out in a few years'.

Cheers! Just a heads up :)

I can't sign up from the 'try the demo' link. I tried changing my demo account, but it wouldn't let me (the existing password was blank, it complained).

After a while I figured out I needed to logout and sign up again.

Already done.

Wow - thanks for this summary. I hadn't heard a rundown like this before. That sounds great - I might give Lua a go!

Marijn, thanks for writing this. I'm a big fan - I recommend it to my friends looking to learn JavaScript.
