   I agree completely. I have found a few different artists already and have spent the entire evening on the new site.

   Too bad they're not so open at the Royal Mail. Regardless of the wikileaks.org publishing of the data, their charging money for a canonical table of postal code data is shameful at best.

   Daemonizing is done by process forking using the os module and logging is done via the standard logging module with an optional syslog handler.

   I gave this a try and couldn't get it to work as I'd expect based upon previous experience with Tornado. I'm waiting until they polish up a 0.3 release to adopt using it.

   There is some sound information in this. I've been planning on writing about the the curve in using Tornado, as it is deceivingly simple. It does take diving into the code to really pump out a polished site. I've been working on a stub pr

   With a business model that is dependent on licensing content from organizations like the RIAA, I think it came down to liabilities and licensing costs more than anything else. Don't under-estimate the cost of running a music streaming site.

   Perhaps that's something that is only done in advertising, I've never skeptically reviewed Apple's website.

    I also doubt they licensed the image from Avatar to market their device. This is generally a no-no and with the attention it is getting, I expect they will get a C&D letter to take that off. Also does that mean it has a built in Torre

    All of the product shots look like Photoshop mockups. Note the shadows and highlights and the pixelated edges around the simulated pictures on the device. When "real" vendors do this, there is always a disclaimer that says that the images

    For what it's worth, the first thing I thought of, from a naming perspective is "Tweeps" is very close to "Creeps." It was a very quick jump from reading "Plenty of Tweeps" to hearing "Plenty of Creeps" in my head.

    I use Google Apps for Domains Enterprise at my place of employment and have always found their support to be very quick and responsive. My gripe is they always have Apps for Domains features after everything else. For example, I can't upgra

    I find it odd that the website for a .net web framework is mediawiki, written in PHP. If a framework isn't used for its own site, doesn't it make said framework suspect in the first place? It lends less credibility than if it just used som

    Without solidarity of video format across browsers, Flash will still hold the embedded video market in browsers. Not to mention like all the other open standards, until Microsoft works out a way to get users to their most current browsers

    It appears to be nothing but a pyramid scheme and spammy game. As others said, there's nothing that says what the game is. I did not link my account because you didn't tell me what you were going to do with it.

    I should clarify, plProxy is responsible for the transparent horizontal scaling. pgBouncer is a proxy that allows you to run all of this using a minimal number of PostgreSQL backends, which is essential because of the amount of inter-proce

    I think the author is unaware of a great tool for scaling PostgreSQL. A few years ago Skype released plProxy and pgBouncer, both of which are key to PostgreSQL scaling. What they in essence do is allow for transparent horizontal scaling o

    I do get that point, but to that end, perhaps they made their decision, in part, based upon the same type of thought process. This is progress, and as a result, the Twisted people, if they're listening, have gotten valuable feedback out of

    I was eyeing up the code earlier for this. This is great and is a good counter for my argument about Tornado's near drop in replacement. However, that's not my main point. Ultimately, I think Twisted, due to the fact it does so much, is in

    I like the idea of the performance and simplicity of Tornado, as I primarily use web.py. After reading this blog entry I decided to give Twisted another look. It took me about 2 minutes to get to the info about the web module and the exampl

    No mention of MySQL anywhere in that declaration, which is interesting given the EU's regulatory body concerns.
