Unless I misunderstood the Edge campaign, you can ONLY get it by contributing to the campaign. It won't be available for purchase.

Not sure why there are complaints about it only working when the phone is online, since you can generate a backup code offline and use that. Your phone does not need internet access once you have set it up.

That person grabbing your phone would also need to know your password, so it's not any worse than not having two factor authentication.

That was one of the taglines for SimCity 2000: "If this game were any more realistic, it'd be illegal to turn it off." ( http://www.gamefaqs.com/pc/198648-simcity-2000/images/box-11... )

I had no idea that FastMail wasn't free any more until just now when I thought "why can't you just sign up and see it". I've been using it since 2002, although it hasn't been my primary email for a long time. C

For those interested, my insert time for ~250 records (~9.2MB of JSON) went from 340 seconds to 20 seconds. Unfortunately when migrating from 1.6.2 to 1.7.1 I lost a table (not sure how) and all secondary indexes :(

This is a really nice update. Migrating data between releases with a giant Ruby script feels like a hack each time there's an update. Insert speed has been a real annoyance. Fetching multiple keys is really nice (instead of map/fi

Isn't this his response to #2? > In both cases above, I was pointing to a type of technology. The truth or falsity of what I was saying doesn’t depend upon whether Palantir is a good or bad company. About that question, I am not, a

Not sure about the app, but on the web interface you can seek inside a track by clicking around the disc image.

Archery can also mess up your back and shoulders if you do it wrong and/or the draw weight is too much for you. It's also an asymmetric activity, since you use your right and left sides differently.

Good point, even better.

When the recent RCE exploits came out, the idea of a bunch of people running Rails dev environments on their laptops on 0.0.0.0:3000 became a lot scarier. Even if an intruder getting into a corporate network and scanning for Rails apps soun

That seems more confusing, since they evaluate to the same thing. 1.9.3p392 :001 > true && 1 => 1 1.9.3p392 :002 > true and 1 => 1 1.9.3p392 :003 > false && 1 => false

"&" isn't even the same category, since it is a definable method and its meaning varies with the value on the left hand side.

I think I may be the last person who still thinks "and/or" are just fine for boolean expressions in Ruby. It is true that "and/or" are not equivalent to "&&/||". But I don't find any of the arguments that we should then avoid "and/o

Can't play when the company decides to stop spending money on servers...meaning your game will actually expire and stop working one day.

Not that this isn't a cool project, but the Twitter archive download comes with search-by-regular-expression built in, no server or database required. Just open up the provided index.html.

Brakeman will not check all gem dependencies and is not a general-purpose gem dependency security checker... bundler-audit will probably end up being the de facto tool for that: https://github.com/postmodern/bundler-audit

Yes, especially in web applications. Found that out the hard way.

Agreed. My wife's hybrid is rated at 35mpg, but it regularly gets more than 40mpg, sometimes as much as 48mpg. Of course, if you get really creative... https://secure.drivers.lexus.com/lexusdrivers/magazine/artic...

It was certainly the high end (I think the range was $20-40), but relatively common for graduate students (edit: in this geographic area).

Yep, I was hired by a company where I did an internship and was actually paid slightly less as a full-time employee than as an intern (more benefits, though). As an intern I made $40/hr, hired full-time at $80k/yr.

I often see this with sites that assume a GitHub account has an associated public email, when that is not always true. The Devise gem for Rails has this issue, if you are using that.

After just having spent a couple days wrestling with g.raphael.js, I would recommend against it. The documentation is vague and incomplete, the generated graphs are inconsistent (e.g., points placed outside of axes), simple bugs with fixes

Yes, exactly. This is only directly exploitable if the user can submit a hash with symbol keys. Otherwise, it seems like it would take some unusual code path in the app to exploit the vulnerability. The original post of the problem goes lik

Last I heard, the firehose is something like 30MB/s of data. Maybe maintaining a pipe like that to a large number of subscribers is just not what Twitter wants to spend its time or money on.

The "homework" line is referring to people blaming unrelated events on Twitter's API changes.
