Also, he very clearly states he borrowed code from 2 of his other projects that made it faster/easier.

Am I the only one that finds it annoying to have each layer's stats in different units? We have: TB/mo, reqs/sec, queries/day, reqs/min, searches/day.

How did we survive? Skills, connections, and some luck. It wasn't that everything vaporized, just a lot of fluff companies built on VC with no profitable business model. Just as when times were good a lot of unqualified people got into

You don't mention where you are located and if that matters (i.e. remote work OK or not).

Aside from spam, I mean marketing emails, what email do you send or receive that needs HTML?

Very nice, thank you, definitely using this in new code.

Very nice and thanks! Writing a replacement for Xively/Cosm/Pachube was on my TODO list, but now I don't have to. I'll take this for a spin later, and hope to contribute if there is anything I have to offer.

locate indexer cronjob should never be enabled on a production box. Problem solved.

Probably nobody is looking at this thread now, but just in case... I've had similar code I use in Flask apps for awhile now and this project inspired me to turn it into a legit Flask Extension: https://github.com/noise&

Yeah, it's more of an advanced topic for commercial prod sites, but worth mentioning as trying to do the migration prior to a code push is also not going to work (no migration to be done) and could confuse those new to these tools&#x2F

That technique used for migrations will fail with a real production app where you want to avoid downtime. The process outlined is: 1. deploy new code to prod 2. run migration on prod via a one-off dyno instance However, in step 1 you are pu

Well all these threads are just pure speculation anyway. My point was that he was hinting at a Facebook Platform style initiative that is very different than just making an awesome VR headset. That's not to say there won't still b

That was a very nicely written piece and he had me going until this part: "We're on the cusp of what I think is not The Next Big Platform, but rather simply The Final Platform – the platform to end all platforms" The problem

In your analogy, sending is not free. Both Netflix has already paid postage to deliver all of the letters (their CDN/bandwidth costs) and each recipient has already paid for their mailbox (cable modem service). In this case the ISP wan

Same here. Coincidence? I think not. They even added details about how much Drive data I have, a passive threat that it might not be safe if I don't cough up for the paid account.

I have no mix - can't stand the glossy, especially for code work (or anything dealing with text). Glossy is great for photos and watching video, which I do very little of on my laptop screen. You can pry my last-matte-edition Macbook P

MyBatis (formerly iBatis) might be a good option. It's been years since I used it but it's a lightweight alternative to Hibernate: http://blog.mybatis.org/

Webvan was the best thing born of the 1st dotcom era, sadly it was unsustainable. Their timing was perfect for me - I was car-less in SF with kids and the local grocery store had recently gone under leaving me with a bus trip in order to gr

I think you mean NodeSH, not OS. I don't see any aspect of this that tells me it's an operating system. "Node is not a perfect language by any means, but..." Also, Node is a framework, the language is Javascript.

I suppose just as an incentive to not default. If you keep the degree, in theory you are more employable. If you have to give it up to default on the debt, maybe you'd think twice?

Not entirely. From the article - 31,440 for Seton, 10,104 for Rutgers. They are saying max merit aid is 21,000 at Seton, so tuition w/max merit aid is 10,440. I don't know about Rutgers specifically, but it's not uncommon for

I'm not advocating this, but why couldn't they take your degree away? They can't take your education away, but the degree is just an agreement/contract that says you upheld your part of the bargain - passed tests, etc, a
