An the blog post argues for adding another command and a new set of names ;). As much as I love the idea of Nix, it would only make that problem go away if it managed to take over the whole world - which it won't.

The Firefox issue is a classic indicator that the site would work in Firefox with one additional step and the creators didn't bother checking. In this case: Firefox expects CORS to load fonts from a different domain, e.g. CloudFront.

Another question is: "Hey, we want to provide a good program, but how do we make sure only to people with serious interest sign up?" Restricting to paying customers is a good way of weeding out people that just sign up because the

Why? Travis has tons of closed stuff running their paid product. So they are probably paying customers anyways.

I worked a bit in research and HTML was generally treated as a serialization format for other tools and HTTP was considered a dumb transport. I had a presentation about REST&Caching and stepped through many of the low-level behaviours o

You are providing an HTTP link to git.io, so it cannot be verified whether I am connecting to the real git.io. This means an attacker can fake himself being git.io very easily (a classic man-in-the-middle attack). It doesn't matter if

Yep. The original post contained the links, but fell through the spam filter ;).

Um. Don't run the installation instructions. While the download itself is served using https (from amazon), curl will contact the google url shortener using HTTP. Honestly, if I wanted to MITM one thing on any network, URL shorteners w

The biggest problem is that the interesting part about this challenge (different precendence) is rather advanced to beginners and is _not even touched_ in the preceding parts.

In Germany, giving Quake 3 into the hands of minors is an offence, for starters. So, in our case, these nice people: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Federal_Department_for_Media_H... Like it or not.

Even if free as beer, the demo version is non-free, in an open source sense. Sure, but you could use any of the many projects built on the open Q3 engine that are actually free as in speech. (And maybe child-friendly) Also, to be clear: I f

Celebrate the open source release of the drivers by giving out a price for making a non-free software run on it? Also one that the intended audience of the hardware is not allowed to play? Seems a bit odd. (The Quake 3 engine is open source

Considering that there where quite some similar ventures around Europe and DailyMotion is the only one still standing, I wouldn't downplay that.

Being trollish doesn't make your name any better. And yeah, I find the name very unfortunate as well, especially in combination with call to actions like "Click here to Spritz".

Thats the case for python. Ruby actually shows that designing a language that runs both on and off the JVM is indeed possible.

I am speaking language design here. Ruby is a surprisingly conservative language when it comes to changing syntax and semantics. Sure, runtimes always evolve and cross-pollinate. I don't care, but as stated in another comment, you ofte

MRI has native threads a GIL, but you can already release the GIL and run freely in native extensions. And this is _not_ a property of native vs. green threading. (And shows how shallow the comparison is, given the number of languages that
