Isn't that the problem that version control has solved? Once the first commit is done you're just uploading deltas/changesets, so the size of the project doesn't really matter.

Would it be possible to implement user input via the REPL instead of the current javascript prompts? Would be much less clunky. Also, at the moment something like this doesn't work at all (Python): while True: user_input = raw_inp

The idea of Open Street Maps is not to make tools for map viewing or journey planning, it's to collect user contributed mapping data for the world. That data can then be used by any project that wants to use it. This tool (using OSM data) a

It's a shame that people contribute data to Google Maps when something like Open Street Maps exists. If I'm going to spend the time it takes to map something, I'd much rather it go into an open source project rather than just improving the

This could actually be quite useful when you have a large number of tabs open, and want to be able to go back to a blank slate, without losing track of what websites you were on. Could you maybe add an easy copy/paste features so you can ge

Hmm, looking at python's base64.urlsafe_b64encode(s), padding is still used. So it sounds like it doesn't fully implement the "modified Base64 for URL" spec. Base64 encoding also seems to result in quite long ascii strings compared to what

If you don't mind using - and _ then the implementation is very simple. I posted an example in Python and CoffeeScript to SO recently for doing this exact thing. http://stackoverflow.com/questions/5940416/compress-a-series... >&#
