ah! I'm guessing you're on Sprint/Virgin/Boost. Sorry... there's literally nothing I can do to fix that. Sprint simply just doesn't support non-GSM characters. You can send from AT&T to Sprint and see for yourself :( If you're not on Sp

What you say about rate limiting is true, but actually you weren't getting responses because my account was suspended for about 15 minutes. I don't think even the frontpage of HN would be capable of getting enough chess players for 1 msg/se

I don't think it's a "reality" show. It's more like a mockumentary style sitcom. I watched the first episode yesterday (a high school classmate of mine is one of the stars). While I appreciate some of the deadpan delivery and spliced-in int

Man, I would have loved to have this about a year ago. Although then I would have missed out on some of the hilarious drama on the websocket mailing list (e.g. http://www.ietf.org/mail-archive/web/hybi/current/msg08668.h... )

You don't even want to know the hack I had to implement to get non-BMP characters stored in MySQL 5.1 'utf8' column.

I was always under the impression that most food photography was not just using different ingredients, but that they were actually using inedible materials (paint, glue, clay, etc.) on/for the food in the pictures.

Does this work for long-lived connections? Say I've got 1000 TCP connections open to my backend workers and I want to roll out new workers. Will the old connections die or survive the config change?

I did something similar and tried to implement functional language style pattern matching in python: https://gist.github.com/1320421 Not to actually use, of course.

Yeah, I pulled in some style changes without testing them and they accidentally broke the onclick handler for the button. I fixed it here: https://github.com/chadselph/OOptOut-Chrome-Extension/commit...

I have to disagree. First, I actually do have this warning in the README. Second, if the app breaks when it doesn't have enough permissions, that's really just the laziness of the app developer. Handle the error gracefully if you really ne

I included a link to the Facebook application settings on the extension's space so you can verify which permissions you've granted and which you haven't. Basically, when you generate a connect button, you list the which permissions you want

DNS lookups don't tell you anything here. The way a reverse proxy works is that HTTP requests to certain URLs get turned into an HTTP client request by the web server to the 3rd party provider (for caching, URL changing, compressing, termi
