To be fair, StackedObjectProxy comes from Paste, not Pylons.

I don't think this can be fairly considered a "microframework" when it depends on Django itself...I will give it a try and look at the source because I think that the author's motiviations for removing urls.py and settings.py are valid (in

That font makes me cringe. It reminds me of when the screen resolution is too narrow, widening all text.

Step 3: Will the CMS be compatible with your host? I think that's putting the horse before the carriage.

The load balancer seems nice. We used HAProxy, but it seemed like the sort of thing that Amazon could easily take care of on their own. I see that it has health checks, but I wonder if it's generally as nice and configurable as HAProxy.

The heroin number appears to be lower because it's a more addictive drug than cocaine. Users are less likely to try to quit. What's more important to consider is that treatment is not always voluntary. A sentence for a marijuana-related off

Yes, you could theoretically struggle to write C code to work like Erlang, but processes are very cheap in Erlang, and distributed, parallel code is extremely easy to write. C performs well, but can be unstable; Yaws performs as well as Ngi

Does something like Twitter really warrant this sort of response? I mean, if my power goes out, or my internet, or anything like that, I'd be reasonably upset with the utility company, but this is a free service. I don't use Twitter so I'm

Well, yes. there's only so much land to go around, and the majority is taken up by these countries (left out desert countries like Sudan, Algeria, etc. because they have little risk of over-expansion). North America is only three countries

I mean, one thing they're investing in is the company being well managed and communicative. It's up to the CEO and co. to make it happen, and there's a level of trust there.

Being that specific about where you live is ridiculous. I can see them demanding that you live in the Bay Area, or in a particular city, but the only thing I can see VCs having any say on beyond that would be the office location.

Almost all of these "No-No's" apply equally to development on any platform. Adding "Rails" sorta makes it link-bait, since there's very little domain-specific knowledge here: * Write tests * Don't write obfuscated code * Consistent

Is that long-hand for "you were right, I was wrong, but nobody cares"? If people were bored by this topic, it would not have generated so many replies while being voted to -2 in the root comment. Also, it's intellectually dishonest for you

No, land mass means a lot. A dense population is well-suited for mass transpo as the primary option. A relatively sparse country cannot pull this off. Pull out your globe...here are other actual, large countries: * Ukraine * Congo (DR

Yes. And buses only stop at their designated stops; you can't hail a bus like a cab. And you're being dense, which is worse.

An effective train/bus must stop at every stop to pick people up. This is why public transit access is limited and could never remotely rival that of roads. On a road, every inch is a stop of its own, and the only people who have to stop fo
