"rails new blog" doesn't create a blog, it creates an empty Rails 3 project using a SQLite database backend called... "blog". > I remember back when ruby first came out I think you meant Rails here (not sure if you can edit HN posts). R

Thank you for consistently adding a voice of reason to all these reactionary blog posts. I would go insane were I in your shoes.

If you have the "insurance" file, you likely already have them on your computer. Why would Julian's arrest/conviction/disappearance affect whether or not you see the documents? He has nothing to do with the leaking effort. http://twitter.c

Assange is 39, not 22 (though, admittedly, he does not look his age). Assange explains why he is a figurehead in his Q&A session with CNN: http://articles.cnn.com/2010-12-03/world/wikileaks.assange.q...

How about the fact that her police report resulted in nothing happening? All we got out of the entire incident was a character assassination under false pretenses and a lot of whining. It probably also violates HN etiquette to link your com

I'm not sure. I was at 60 WPM at age 16 according to Mavis Beacon and steadily increased over the last decade. IRC was my training program. :) I do not even type correctly and I have had no formal training. I only use three fingers on each

Very nice application. I like the graphing of your progress over time. Maybe you could expand it to include DVORAK? I would have paid far more than $9.95/mo for DVORAK lessons when I was learning it. :) One thing, though: http://i.imgur.co

Your domain is already on a non-US registrar, so all you need to do is move from EC2 to a non-US host like abdicar.com, PRQ, admin.2x4.ru, or any "bullet-proof" host. They will ignore DMCA requests and their ilk.

In general, you should not use PHP, but, If you must, you should be using a framework that handles this kind of stuff for you. Input sanitisation has been solved thousands of times by people smarter than you. Do not reinvent the wheel (poor
