wakecodesleep:

Definitely check it out if you’re still using the Prototype JS framework.

Google Is Testing Cars That Drive Themselves →
techspotlight:
Google announced today that it has developed cars that drive themselves automatically in traffic, and that it has been testing them on the streets of California for months.

Command line, are you afraid ?
Most people I know, whom aren’t very used to linux yet, are afraid of the command line, they think it’s hard to learn and somehow useless but that is entirely false… The command line is very easy to learn, well at least the basics of it, but you should know that the shell is much more powerful than anything you have, or will, ever use… In this small article I will try to...

Install Archlinux
Introduction
Arch Linux is a general purpose linux distribution that can be molded to do just about anything. It is fast, lightweight, flexible, and most of the parts under the hood are quite simple to understand and tweak, which can make it a good distro to “learn the ropes” on.
