I should have probably added that I run Arch on my personal machine (XPS15, infinity display).

The arch wiki is absolutely great, but it doesn't have much/any info for some (newer) laptops (e.g. XPS15 9550, X1 Carbon 4th gen..)

That does sound very very nice.

How's the screen like? Do you see pixels when reading text/code? If my calculations are correct, the Dell Chromebook has 169PPI, while the MBP 13 has a 227 PPI display.

I should probably point out that my personal machine is a Dell XPS 15 (infinity display), on which I run Arch.

Almost everything works, but I'm having trouble with a couple of things:

Graphics. It has switchable intel/nvidia but I get a better performance out of the intel chip still. Battery life is about 2.5/3 hours. I haven't tested bluetooth. The fan sometimes comes up without any apparent reason. Palm detection and gestures don't work, but the trackpad is ok otherwise

The display is gorgeous, the machine is a beast and I'm very happy with it otherwise.

Have you ever seen the screen on the new XPS 15? It's a 4k. It is absolutely gorgeous.

we've built it in 48 hours and there was no time for that. But it was in the plans..

Cool, I'll add them tonight.

Yup, what codexon said.

Since this was for clojurecup, we have decided to remove all references to Scala. :P

On a more serious note, we've only indexed ~25 courses and probably the ones you refer to weren't among them; if you have a particular course in mind, tell me, I'll fire up the scraper..

Am I the only one here who thinks that maybe a petition asking Mozilla to pressure Eich to step down may be a better solution to this?

I seems that all the years of contributions and sacrifices by the community to build a great product, fight for a better internet and all that mozilla has stood for could be very rapidly undone if we continue portraying it as a homophobic institution. All of this good, from so many people, undone for the views of one man.

Say we are successful with this, Firefox goes out of the picture. Mozilla is dead. Would that be something to aspire for? I'm creeped out by the state of the internet as it is already, mozilla seems like the last company that truly cares. Who would fight for keeping the internet open then? Google?

Let's direct the criticism to the man for his beliefs, lets let know mozilla that their choice is not cool and we won't accept it. Let's not bring the whole thing down with it please.

I'd really love to see that! So much of my undergraduate coursework felt like a complete waste of time since it was essentially throw away work.

As a plus, a teacher/TA is marking the work anyways, so you might have several people going at a problem from different angles and having the quality of the work evaluated by someone who (presumably) knows their stuff.

I bet this could work well for group works/final projects.

uh oh . someone is scared...

This should just be how (at least some) homework/coursework material is generated at universities/colleges.

If a simple CRUD app can solve real world problems, then why not make students make it. If it ends up being used, it can even go on their resume.
