   Excuse my ignorance, I've never done a Show HN post before. This is my web site. It's an experiment: is it possible that residents of a city can exert measurable pressure on local governments and businesses by donating to charity on behalf

   Another thing to consider beyond simply the fact that your particular benchmark ran into a network bandwidth bottleneck: web server benchmarks should not be conducted using ApacheBench until Apache makes AB multi-threaded. Use a multithread

   Does it support SSL yet? Last I checked (admittedly, about 6 months ago), it seemed Disqus could not be used at full-SSL sites.

   The client-side execution time and transfer time of large image assets is interesting, and I'm glad the article covers those matters in-depth. That said, what I find surprising about GitHub in my admittedly infrequent usage is the amount of

   The Census data I cited is net interstate migration. Review the last page of the PDF I linked. The title of Appendix Table A-1 from which I quoted is "Domestic Inmigration, Outmigration, and Net Migration: 1995 to 2000." It's simply the

    Thanks! That's the basic idea: many people are already charitable and make donations of money fairly routinely. Why not do that plus attach a little bit of local significance to those donations? It allows you to say to the powers-that-be in
