About
Hello, my name is Zeth, I'll be your host here.
Command Line Warriors is about taking control of your own technology, it looks at our experiences of computing; especially using GNU/Linux, the Python programming language, the command-line and issues such as techno-ethics, best practices and whatever is cool now. If you take control of your technology then you are a Warrior too!
This site is your site too which means that you can contribute and get involved. You can leave comments using the facility provided. For me, the comments and discussions are by far the best part of the site. So please do have your say!

Hi, I am far from your league, but instead of [20. Nd5], why not just play Qd8? :-) Wouldn't it be only Qd8 Qd8 then, or am I missing something?

Flawed logic. This comparison would only make sense if the EU could only send the same amount of competitors as a single country.
Since it is treated as many small countries there is many more EU competitors in some events than a single country would be allowed, any comparison must be weighted to account for this.

Great discussion and a great "add-on" with the European countries!
I still find medals per Capita very interesting because it indicates how many medals a country has won, from the pool of potential athletes living in the country.
I found this widget that displays who won the 2008 Olympics from different perspectives. It displays medals won by total medal count and gold count. In addition it can show medals won per million inhabitant and per million dollar GDP.
I think you might like it:-) http://www.youcalc.com/apps/1219403616554?application_popup=1
Its easy to put on your blog
A straight medal count isn’t necessarily the most fair:-)

Men's quadruple sculls final: 1 Poland 5:41.33 Gold 2 Italy 5:43.57 Silver 3 France 5:44.34 Bronze

Men's lightweight fours final: 1 Denmark 5:47.76 Gold 2 Poland 5:49.39 Silver 3 Canada 5:50.09 Bronze
Men's lightweight double sculls final: 1 Great Britain 6:10.99 Gold 2 Greece 6:11.72 Silver 3 Denmark 6:12.45 Bronze
Women's lightweight double sculls final: 1 Netherlands 6:54.74 Gold 2 Finland 6:56.03 Silver 3 Canada 6:56.68 Bronze
