This seems specious. Correctly assigning blame won't matter to readers; most people couldn't care less. Sticking a different brand name on the failure is side-stepping the issue: nothing stays up 100% of the time. Create a custom page that

I'm 27, with a wife and three kids. I've been working full-time on my own startup for the past 9 months. Without salary. See, there are plenty of us who can kick ass and raise a family at the same time. Not to mention plan and budget resp

If time and attention really are the determining factors, maybe we parents should just chuck our smartphones and tablets for the first 5 years. I'm only partly joking. I ditched my iPhone after my 2-year-old started saying, "Dadda, put your

It's interesting that rewriting in Clojure was "less work and more timely" than migrating to Akka or waiting for Scala 2.10. Any insight as to why? Having written no Scala, I'm not sure what the Akka changes would entail.
