  Unclutterer » Archive » Creating a minimalist workspace — from Zen Habits 

  http://unclutterer.com/2008/03/12/creating-a-minimalist-workspace/

  Creating a minimalist workspace — from Zen Habits We are delighted to have Leo Babauta of Zen Habits as a guest columnist today. Please give him a warm welcome and check out his awe-inspiring website afterward. ... We thank Leo for being a part of our month of sharing. How minimalist is your workspace? An uncluttered workspace is a thing of beauty. I write a lot about minimalism on Zen Habits , including guides to creating a minimalist home , minimalist housework , and beating clutter entropy . On Unclutterer, my favorite feature is the Workspace of the Week , with its cool setups. Today, I thought I’d share my pretty minimalist workspace, and share some thoughts on how to go about creating one of your own. What’s a minimalist workspace? That question will have different answers for each person. There can be no single definition. The ultimate minimalist workspace, I think, would be to have no desk or papers or computer or anything of the kind — just yourself. You’d think, and talk, and may   [More...] [Less...]

  Fuel cell - Wikipedia 

  http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fuel_cell

  [ edit ] Efficiency [ edit ] Fuel cell efficiency The efficiency of a fuel is dependent on the amount of power drawn from it. Drawing more power means drawing more current, which increases the losses ... in the fuel cell. As a general rule, the more power (current) drawn, the lower the efficiency. Most losses manifest themselves as a voltage drop in the cell, so the efficiency of a cell is almost proportional to its voltage. For this reason, it is common to show graphs of voltage versus current (so-called polarization curves) for fuel cells. A typical cell running at 0.7 V has an efficiency of about 50%, meaning that 50% of the energy content of the hydrogen is converted into electrical energy; the remaining 50% will be converted into heat. (Depending on the fuel cell system design, some fuel might leave the system unreacted, constituting an additional loss.) For a hydrogen cell operating at standard conditions with no reactant leaks, the efficiency is equal to the cell voltage divided b   [More...] [Less...]

  10 Linux commands you’ve never used 

  http://bashcurescancer.com/10-linux-commands-youve-never-used.html

  It takes years maybe decades to master the commands available to you at the Linux shell prompt. Here are 10 that you will have never heard of or used. They are in no particular order. My favorite is mkfifo. ... pgrep , instead of: # ps -ef | egrep ' root ' | awk '{print $2}' 1 2 3 4 5 20 21 38 39 ... You can do this: # pgrep -u root 1 2 3 4 5 20 21 38 39 ... pstree , list the processes in a tree format. This can be VERY useful when working with WebSphere or other heavy duty applications. # pstree init-+-acpid |-atd |-crond |-cups-config-dae |-cupsd |-dbus-daemon-1 |-dhclient |-events/0-+-aio/0 | |-kacpid | |-kauditd | |-kblockd/0 | |-khelper | |-kmirrord | `-2*[pdflush] |-gpm |-hald |-khubd |-2*[kjournald] |-klogd |-kseriod |-ksoftirqd/0 |-kswapd0 |-login---bash |-5*[mingetty] |-portmap |-rpc.idmapd |-rpc.statd |-2*[sendmail] |-smartd |-sshd---sshd---bash---pstree |-syslogd |-udevd |-vsftpd |-xfs `-xinetd bc is an arbitrary precision calculator language.

  100 wonderful photo effects Photoshop tutorials 

  http://www.photoshoproadmap.com/Photoshop-blog/2008/04/01/100-wonderful-photo-effects-photoshop-tutorials/

  How can we define what’s a photo effect? That was my main concern when I started the research to build this list. Despite of this situation, I had one thing clear: the final result had to be quite different ... from the orignal picture and be recognized as a post production photo manipulation. That idea would leave all kind of complex photo retouching and subtle color correction out of the discussion. I’ve already gathered some of those tutorials in my and articles. So, with that idea in mind, I gathered what I consider 100 of the best photo effects Photoshop tutorials available on the web. If you have created a photo effect that you consider should have made it into the list, feel free to post the link in the comments section.   [More...] [Less...]

  Social bookmarking - Wikipedia 

  http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Social_bookmarking

  [ edit ] Introduction On a social bookmarking system or network, users store lists of Internet resources that they find useful. These lists can be accessible to the public by users of a specific network ... or website. Other users with similar interests can view the links by topic, category, tags, or even randomly. Other than web page bookmarks, services specialized to a specific subject or format — feeds, books, videos, shopping items, map locations, wineries, etc. — can be found. [ edit ] History The concept of shared online bookmarks dates back to April 1996 with the launch of itList.com. Within the next three years online bookmark services became competitive, with venture-backed companies like Backflip , Blink, [ citation needed ] Clip2 , Hotlinks , Quiver , and others entering the market. Lacking viable models for making money, most of this early generation of social bookmarking companies failed as the dot-com bubble burst. In 2005 and 2006, social bookmarking sites, such as del.i   [More...] [Less...]
