I volunteer as the backend rails dev at http://balloonchallenge.org/ and ended up doing our ops, using Dokku to handle our main site's pushes. I'm terrible at devops and Dokku has been bulletproof so far. It'

Some of the websites you access also run on non-free closed source code, too! This means the HTML they send to you is made by the smut that is closed-source software. The horror! I'm all for open source as much as possible and whenever

If you're still using Google Code for any projects I'd really recommend moving it to another service at this point unless you have a compelling reason to stay. There's some good evidence at this point that's leading me t

You're confusing invention and innovation. Invention is the creation of a new product or category. Innovation is improving upon that and making it better and more accessible. Internet forums or instant messaging were inventions. Reddit

We've been using Dokku for a month or so for deploys on a project and aside from a few initial minor bumps it's made the deploying as simple as Heroku for me and taken a ton of the pain out of devops. Deis/Dokku are great too

How is this not a false dichotomy? The author presents it as "We can either have IRC communities and Facebook groups where everyone agrees with each other all the time or gets banned or we can have an uncontrolled twitter where people

Most of my jeans have pretty small pockets (biggest thing I've noticed with higher end denim is the pockets are much smaller than levis, etc). An iPhone 5 sized device is about the max that will fit in there, a 6 (4.7 inches) borders o

iOS did have a sizable requirement, although I forget how much space was required to do the install. I had many friends who had difficulty upgrading due to it.

To me this is akin to limiting all vehicles to under 70 MPH to ensure no one speeds recklessly. The solution is to train our drivers better and start actually pulling people over for using phones while driving, not cripple the capabilities

It was a fun game. If I really like a certain cafe and go there almost every day it was fun to have some way to show and compete for that. The benefit was a good UX.

I firmly believe that the reason most major religions standardized a sabbath day was for mental health reasons. There's a lot of value to taking a day for yourself in which you do no work. Even if you love what you do, you can't d

It's worth noting that both the President of the US and the FCC Chairman have not taken a side in this. Wheeler seems to genuinely have consumers's interests in mind, but they're going to have to push back against a _lot_ of
