Agreed. I'm currently running a site over at http://readthedocs.org/ which is meant to be your one-stop shop for Sphinx documentation. It has most of the big python projects on it, and hopefully as sphinx gets more popular, it will attrac

Looks like a great lineup. The idea of the extreme talks is a great one. I really like the idea of intense, no bullshit knowledge transfer. I hope that Djangocon has a similar track this year, assuming it goes as well as I think it will at

Well said. I always cherish things that make me step back from my normal viewpoints, and remind me of how lucky we are. It's almost certain that anyone reading this site is in the luckiest top 10% of the world, having access to food and int

OS X has plenty of keyboard shortcuts. In general I find them to be much more reliable and consistent than any of the Linux software I have used (ran Ubuntu for ~6 years). This is full of gross generalizations. I use keyboard shortcuts for

Glad to see startups trying to solve the big annoying problems in society. Banking (Bank Simple) and Health Care are the big ones that I know about, but I'd love to know about more.

It's useful to have journalism and english lit majors as the BFDL's for a web framework. This is the main reason that the documentation for the framework is so amazing, the owners of the project really care about it.

Bing seems to be doing a pretty good job. With google's privacy snafu's and other mishaps, I could see them getting upset within 5 years.

Last weekend I went out with a flask of Laphroaig (some damn good scotch), and was just sipping that most of the night. I let a bunch of my friends have some, and always came back with some left in the flask. It's a great way to drink reall

I love munin. It makes monitoring our servers so simple, and it's really easy to make plugins as well. It's neat being able to take your usual tools and give them a "memory"

Interesting. I know Scipy are one of the biggest communities of Python users. Once Django (and all it's dependencies, specifically the database backends) are ported over to Python 3, I think a critical mass will have been established in the

Part of the point is that we pre-screen developers (and employers) to ensure that people are high quality -- and that they have actually used Django before. We are requiring open source code to be shown (or having a good reason for not havi
