Since when did it become not OK to side with the FSF? This, (i.e. the "Hacker" News crowd) has really set a new low bar.

Obfuscated in some way implies that it's reversible, which simply means that it's just going to take a little bit of time to unobfuscate the database--in other words, it's probably not worth it. Hashing an email address would be pointless b

The point that the article makes is that OddMuse makes a horrible project hosting system. It's easy enough to store a link to github, or bitbucket, or gitorious (and in all reality, they all speak git, so it's just another remote) as the

Totally agree about Gitorious, but I think it'd be wise to support GitHub (and Bitbucket) as they are used by a large chunk of people.

I think I misunderstood this whole thing! The tutorial was rewritten to make use of bootstrap instead of blueprint. Not the rails tutorial site was rewritten to be designed using bootstrap. It all makes sense now.

by apgwoz 15y ago
fair enough, but I still question why a tutorial needs to be rewritten to make use of a different CSS framework. Are there that many people forking this tutorial that they want something cleaner to work with? I just don't get it.

Sure. They went straight to work on something similar that Six Apart was cooking up. But, there have been many amazing products shutdown over the years due to talent acquisitions. Pownce ultimately would have been forced to shutdown due to

I wonder if they'd be willing to release it as open source?

Powce was successfully sold to Six Apart. She has a proven track record of building things that people like and want to use, but you can't win them all.

I also just found movgrab which seems to work fine. With youtube, I've been using yturl and doing mplayer `yturl url` and that's worked fine, unless my connection is spotty. If movgrab doesn't work right I'll try youtube-dl--thanks!

Ack! blip doesn't have a non-flash option, nor does it work with gnash (at least the versions I've tried).

Right, and that's the point. Though, I suppose it'd be easy enough to create a code walker which renamed everything unless the symbol started with % or something. That, in my opinion is sort of the beauty of Clojure's macro system. By defau

I hope that the macro system he's working on bares some fruit. Personally, I've always liked explicit-renaming macros, as they provide you the benefits of both hygiene and (almost) the convenience of defmacro. But, the pattern language of

I don't see how this is a problem. Every cell has a copy of every post--that should make it possible to search it and get all older posts as well.

While I appreciate the sentiment, Python isn't exactly the fastest language out there. But, if you have to do it, I'd suggest compiling to the Python AST and emitting bytecode.
