I'm also in the hunt for a python framework. I've had a look at several, most have already been mentioned here, like Flask and web.py. Personally I'm probably going to go with custom framework built on Werkzeug or modifying Flask. I think T

If you really want to know peoples motivation for downloading copyrighted material, or wanting copyright reform, there are countless of resources on the Internet and elsewhere. This isn't the '80s. Piracy has been common place for at least

This is of course a political move. The Swedish general election is in four months and the Pirate Party's greatest threat is not getting enough attention. As the other political parties in Sweden doesn't really understand technology and won

What's up with all the video chat companies "from" Sweden? Skype, Marratech and now GIPS. Might have something to do with broadband proliferation I guess.

If I'm counting correctly these photographs still retain copyright to the end of the year (in Sweden), as Albert Kahn died in 1940. Copyright in Sweden is generally uphold up until 70 years after authors death.

You're right, doesn't work for everyone. Does seem to work to transfer the binary from someone else though. Edit: Cnet reportedly has the new version: http://download.cnet.com/Spotify/3000-2141_4-10912348.html?t...

The workaround [1] seem to work pretty good so far. No crashes, but it does go into a (recoverable) loop if you pull the slider to the end of a track. [1] http://getsatisfaction.com/spotify/topics/spotify_under_wine...

"So how do you get the new version? We’ve started rolling out the update to users today, however, it will take us a number of days to get it to everyone." You get the updated version if you (re)download Spotify from the website.

The thing is that it worked. I never seen any Wikileaks story get so much attention in the news or "virally" on the Internet. Here in Sweden it was a top story on all the major newspapers websites and on the evening news, but put into conte

I think it came across quite clearly in the video that the guys on the ground were a lot more attached to the situation. You could here it in their voices. An important part of this story that sadly won't get much attention is how badly the

The US isn't exactly the most gender equal country in the world, so I'll be pretty surprised if women aren't being discriminated against in the tech industry.

Like with the whole "sniffing tor exit nodes" thing [1], you do wonder if it's actually the original owners who fails to protect their data, or if it's someone else [2]. [1] http://arstechnica.com/security/news/2007/09/security-expert...

The Microsoft Natural keyboard is surprisingly good for its price. Despite being to wide I really enjoyed it before getting the Kinesis Advantage.

I think your reading to much into this. To me it seems like the stack exchange sites just got too little traffic to reach critical mass. Ask Metafilter is an exception to a lot of other communities which became awful as they grew.

This is how a news site like this works. If somethings get popular a lot of people will get interested in the topic and post stories about it. Then more people get interested in the topic and so on. It's also a reflection what other sites w

It does make a difference. Linux needs more users, both active and passive. I'm actually surprised how many people that would be the target audience for Linux have come to use OS X instead.

When I need to I've found that separating different activities helps me from getting "caught up" in the Internet. I use a HTPC to watch tv-series/web-tv and listen to music, an android phone for connecting with friends, e-reader to read boo

There's also newspapers that isn't as focused on analysis as The Economist, which release on a weekly basis. Some newspapers even have international or weekly editions like The Guardian[1]. It does seem like this was a lot more common befor

What makes me sad is the disproportionate amount of money and efforts that the US seem to spend on military projects instead of civilian ones(1). Surly the US did and do great civilian projects, but maybe it's greatest achievements are in s

It's at least more likely that the two guys at 3:50, is carrying an RPG and an AK, then any of the other guys I see in the video. Their behavioral pattern doesn't really match the rest of the groups. At 4:46 you can see something that resem

I think 3:38 looks more like a camera strap. An AK is quite heavy and not something you wave around like that. The quality is quite bad so it might be a weapon, but I don't think you can "clearly see an AK-47". I would be very very surprise

In my opinion the Commodore/Amiga and later the PC computers created a lot more programmers than the Nintendo Entertainment System did. The North European game industry (DICE, Starbreeze, Remedy, etc.) was more or less based on the demoscen

Implement the standard "community" things like rating, tags and comments. Make it sortable by paid/freemium. Create a "suggest a service" form to replace the email adress, and put up some contact information. I like the overall design, but

That's awesome, getting downvoted and commented on for the one word I put inside quotation marks. I was referring to hackers as in Hacker News i.e. the "startup community". Also it's pretty much impossible to do anything political, especial
