threepointone··on Where is all the Node.js malware?
I do believe you're mistaken. It might have done so in the past, but pretty certain it doesn't require sudo anymore.

+1. thanks!
threepointone··on Mouse path smoothing
I've built my own js lib to help with this (https://github.com/threepointone/twain) Couple of demos - http://threepointone.github.com/iso-gol/ and http://threepointone.github.com/beam/ (might not work on ff19)

still experimental, but I'm learning.

same to me!
threepointone··on Sublime Text 3 Beta
I feel you man. I've been stubbornly sticking to Snow Leopard myself, it works great with my late 2008 MBP.

Yes.
threepointone··on Jetstrap for Bootstrap
I figured out how to reproduce this - click on 'create screen' without entering anything into the input field. It creates a blank canvas that doesn't accept any elements.
threepointone··on Airbnb Releases Infinity.js: A Javascript Library for Smoother Scrolling
<script src="zepto.js"></script> <script> var jQuery = Zepto; </script> <script src="infinity.js"></script>

There.

threepointone··on Airbnb Releases Infinity.js: A Javascript Library for Smoother Scrolling
Ack, didn't mean to offend you either. I like Lisp too (I'm learning Racket). I was just trying to explain how underscore.js makes me feel.
threepointone··on Airbnb Releases Infinity.js: A Javascript Library for Smoother Scrolling
http://underscorejs.org/#invoke

In simple terms, it goes through the array, and calls the named function on every element. You could read it as - "For this array, invoke the 'remove' function on every element."

threepointone··on Airbnb Releases Infinity.js: A Javascript Library for Smoother Scrolling
Just for you, I went through their source, and these are all the jquery specific calls -

.height() .width() .offset() .remove() .append() .prepend() .prependTo() .find() .parent() .on() .off() .scrollTop() .outerHeight() .length

It seems to me like all of these would be covered by zepto. Or qwery. Or you could make your own adapter with Prototype. Or Mootools. Or Ext. Or YUI. Heck, you could probably whip up your own little library based on sizzle, or even just querySelectorAll. Then just fork infinity to use your lib, and you're good to go.

I hope you're not confused any more!

I apologize, I didn't realize it's offensive to you/others. Seemed like a perfectly cromulent word.
threepointone··on Airbnb Releases Infinity.js: A Javascript Library for Smoother Scrolling
Yup. I love the philosophy underlying underscore. The functions are ridiculously simple, but so powerful to use once you grok it.
threepointone··on Airbnb Releases Infinity.js: A Javascript Library for Smoother Scrolling
OT - I can't help but mentally shorten code snippets with underscore/whatever. For example, I see this -

for(var index = 0, length = listItems.length; index < length; index++) { listItems[index].remove(); }

and I think to myself -

_(listItems).invoke('remove')

threepointone··on My next text editor
The code release was _yesterday_. Give it some time, I'm sure it'll gather (or fail to gather) a community. Mind you, Textmate 1 has had a huge fan-following, and they might just migrate to v2.
threepointone··on Open-Source High-quality PDF of SICP
Looks like I might just do that. Thank you!
threepointone··on Open-Source High-quality PDF of SICP
I see; that makes sense. Thanks! A good reason to learn scheme.
threepointone··on Open-Source High-quality PDF of SICP
Pardon my ignorance, but why? I haven't read SICP, but I do consider myself to be pretty good at javascript, and was thinking of using it.

Calm down, everybody.

pirated windows 7 installs?
threepointone··on Light Table Playground Levels Up
I'd love to have any info on this as well. I tried learning a little clojure to mess with light table, and I loved it. Aching to have instant feedback from my js too.

threepointone··on Codekit Is Awesome
http://ycombinator.com/newsguidelines.html "Please don't do things to make titles stand out, like using uppercase or exclamation points, or adding a parenthetical remark saying how great an article is. It's implicit in submitting something that you think it's important."

PS- I think codekit is awesome too.

threepointone··on "Anonymous OS" Taken Offline Due to Security Concerns
Thanks, that actually stops me from trying to get the OS running.

However, why did gnu8 get downvoted? Seems like a reasonable comment, relevant to the discussion.

threepointone··on "Anonymous OS" Taken Offline Due to Security Concerns
Is that even possible? How would one even go about doing so?

threepointone··on How to build fast HTML5 mobile apps using backbone.js, zepto.js and trigger.io
css transitions are now typically hardware accelerated, so yes, I'm guessing they would be more performant (especially on mobile).

This is a fascinating story, but I must ask - does this belong on hacker news? Please, I ask with no intended malice.
threepointone··on Apache releases first major new version of popular Web server in six years
A "major version" in the software world means an integer bump, like 2.0, 3.0.

In this context, "major new version" means a non-patch release, with new features.
