Hooray for the death of Google Reader! Now we will hopefully get some feed readers on iOS instead of Google Reader readers.
TIL about the GNU ls(1) –full-time option.
Tried Fleksy. You can’t even select text‽ Say what‽ And punctuation was impossible.

OH: “‘Tres leches’ is Spanish for ‘soggy cake’.”
Tried and failed to come up with a metaphor to explain what Linux is to someone who isn’t close to understanding the difference between OS X and Windows.
