having trouble reddit's rss on bloglines ?
If you use Bloglines and you have not been seeing any updates from Reddit on it then try to get your reddit feed from this rssmix feed. I have no idea why Bloglines is not showing updated feeds from reddit.

I was just reading a very interesting article from Jeremy Allison of the samba team called The Land of "Nothing for free". A very interesting quote
My panel was rather uncontroversial, Microsoft, Bruce Perens and myself being on our best behavior. The only sparks that flew where when Microsoft made it abundantly clear that they would use their patent portfolio to prevent the spread of GPL software. Section seven of the GPL (the implicit patent grant of the license) now looks like the most prescient writing Richard Stallman has ever done. If you're not familiar with it I'd suggest you read it and understand why using the GPL to protect your Free Software is so important.
The article is old, but do check it out. -
automatically subscribing to new folders in gnus
If you use gnus to read your imap, you might find this useful. Gnus does not automatically show new folders created in your IMAP server. However, you can get this behavior by using the
gnus-auto-subscribed-groups
variable. In my .gnus, I added this(setq gnus-auto-subscribed-groups "INBOX.*")
and voila! all my new folders started showing up.Defined tags for this entry: geek stuff
