This looks to me to be a page-for-page clone of another url screenshot service that made it to the front page a couple weeks ago. http://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=5257432 Compare: https://urlbox.io/docs http://www.url2picture.com/Ho

I'm curious to know how VS compares to PyCharm in terms of how rapidly the Python environment is able to restart after a code refresh. It's been my personal experience that PyCharm's Run/Debug configuration is fast to restart in Run mode, b

Disqus is in the unenviable position of having a freemium product that everyone wants but nobody is willing to pay for. Their freemium model provides commenting services with the expectation that value-added features or the need for an SLA

This is an elegant starting point for implementing read-only mode in a Django app. The appearance of buggy behavior can be expected if this is used on a site that does not strictly implement a REST interface (ie. POST to /resource/new/ inst

I agree that this may be the case. My aim in posting these figures was just to give an example how correlating the number of job postings with each area's population can give additional meaning to the data. So instead of being fooled by a

I would be interested in seeing a follow-up analysis where the figures are adjusted to account for the resident populations in each of the listed cities (and metro areas). Looking at US cities only, the Bay Area is utterly exceptional in te

As another commenter pointed out, forums tend to serve one of two needs. Either they are a source of information, or they can be a place for casual conversations. Your list of 'wants' mainly speaks to forums being a source of information.

I agree with this. Outside of explicitly signaling to users that they have a saved 'draft' of the form, and having them click a button on the page to restore their filled out fields from the draft, there aren't really very many sane implem

The documentation for the feature is near the bottom of the commit. This is a really great addition. Every non-trivial Django project I've ever worked on has required extending the user model using both the bolted-on AUTH_USER_PROFILE patte

I noticed this as well. The older search results have the same width as the new results. It's also interesting to note that the old results page is displaying multiple results for single domains using result nesting, while the new results

I agree - lists like these don't really have value if you're doing serious mobile web development. A few more examples of broken and inconsistent implementations: • Viewport - this meta tag isn't supported on HTC phones, so your slick CSS

This sort of ad-hominem attack doesn't really have a place on Hacker News. It's no secret that Scott Cleland is an anti-Google shill, available for hire by fortune 500 companies to write books and testify in front of Congress, but the corr

I agree that there are a lot of excellent questions there. The author references the Google-Kansas City agreement [1] throughout the article, and has articulated some very real, pressing concerns about the terms of that contract. It's my u

I think the blog post goes to show that much like words change their meaning over time, icons can also come to represent objects that are much different from their original metaphors. As new generations of people learn to associate concept

I appreciate how your experience in the late 90s has given you a heuristic for picking up on the signals and leading indicators of a bubble, but I question how relevant it is in this case. The poetry blog post is just one bad idea that a co

This is a really excellent example of the animation potential in CSS. I haven't looked, but I wouldn't be surprised if in the next year or so, a number of libraries are released with the sole purpose of helping actionscript-and-flash devel

What's interesting about Twitter's model is that no data actually comes down to the user when they first request a tweet. Twitter builds the page, loads the layout, and initializes the client-side script, which makes a JSON request to pull

One thing to note (and this may be a contentious statement) is that a modern Django app should be created using class-based generic views, rather than the simple function-based views that are demonstrated in all the Django beginner tutorial

Your comment ignores the next section in the article, detailing how they are caching templates with a high level of granularity, and actively removing template logic that impedes efficient cacheing. The article goes on to state that deliver

The original question was to know how Google was driving their G+ feedback feature. In the context of capturing user feedback, the point of a screenshot is to relay information about the state of the user's environment to someone else, wit

I don't understand the argument against having to revisit the site and fix it in the future. Web design takes place from the standpoint of what is possible to accomplish with the most-supported features. From that starting point, vendor pr

I think the point that many are missing is that is not known for certain that an engineer is more likely to enjoy certain hobbies over others. People use their personal experience to develop a heuristic which this test is designed to revea

I agree that this example is a little confusing. The author is making assumptions about the behavior of the Django admin site based on either his previous experience using it, or the Django documentation. In practice it could be extremely
