I'd advise caution with the use of landrush, at my company it was very quick to get up and running using it, but we encountered several problems with it over time. We have several vagrant boxes coming up and down at various times on each developer's machine and it would tend to get out of sync in various cases, hold on to records for machines that no longer existed and macOS DNS cache also played a role.

Eventually we replaced it with Dnsmasq and a static IP setup with each development box getting an immutable static IP. Dnsmasq runs on a guest VM that needs to always be up for other purposes as well.

As always the effort from the landrush developers is much appreciated and it may be suitable for a limited number of boxes but it didn't scale with our usecase.


I don't know if anyone else has this problem but since I use VI for code editing I have a twitch reaction to hit escape a lot when I'm editing text.

This actually closes the compose window now. Which is incredibly frustrating. I know it's not a mainstream user problem just something that effect my perception of Gmail on a daily basis.


If you use firefox, try the "it's all text" plugin (although I don't know for sure if it works with the new gmail compose). You can write in the editor of your choice.


Nope, new compose breaks that as well, and it used to work fine. Guess it's finally time to switch to mutt.


There is a hotkey editor in labs which you might find handy.

if you are on a Mac you can use QuickCursor and edit your mail in vi :) it works in any application that uses a standard Cocoa text box. http://www.hogbaysoftware.com/products/quickcursor


You could optimize this a bit by caching the loops, I noticed some pauses between Fact and Truth, seeing as how that loop always comes up it would be nice to cache it.

A possible optimization worth trying with this project would be to generate just half the face and then mirror it before running the facial detection fitness function. Seeing as how your subject matter is generally symmetrical the algorithm as it is now is spending a lot of time just finding symmetrical images.

Does anyone know if there is a similar law about jury nullification in Canada?

I hear about a lot of these little known facts about the law but they're usually US centric.
