I thought it was a not-so-subtle tongue-in-cheek reference to Gabe's weight/size. He's a big guy. shrug

I find the number of comments are a better indicator of how interesting an article is than the number of points. I don't even look at the point values.

I was referring to scraping Google/Yahoo. They have disclaimers on their sites that the information is N minutes old at best. EDIT: I guess a few of them are actually realtime now. Here's the list: http://www.google.com/intl/en/googlefi

That data is also 15 minutes old (or older!) from what I recall. Probably not your best choice for anything remotely "realtime". As parent said, you're better off getting a real market stream which will probably use FIX: http://en.wikipe

You'll see this same behavior anywhere demand greatly exceeds supply. I know I'll never see a Raspberry Pi in real life because they refuse to meet demand for whatever reason, so it doesn't really bother me.

There's this gist which combines all the patches and has you install a 1.9.3-p125-perf via rbenv: https://gist.github.com/2113359 Been using it at work for local dev and in production. Feels good, man.

This is correct, but replace 1.9.2-p290 with 1.9.3-p125.

Are they GPL, or AGPL? The AGPL removes the so-called "network service loophole". Unsurprisingly, few projects use it.

You are not even remotely close to being correct.

> it's fast. People honestly still believe PHP is fast ? Wow. Even Ruby (1.9, YARV) is as fast as PHP nowadays, and it's one of the slowest mainstream scripting languages you can use right now... http://shootout.alioth.debian.org/u6

For the record, this was sarcasm. It's 2012. I really hope you guys aren't debugging using printf still. You'd think someone into esoteric languages would've heard of a debugger.

Does F# let you debug using printf? I stopped reading the linked post at that point.

This does look a little bizarre... Random blog claims free phones for students. Links to official rules PDF hosted on some PHP dev site. You have to register on Facebook to participate. No indication of Microsoft being involved

Standard response to SSH "bruteforcing" articles: use SPA or port knocking to hide sshd. Use key-based auth and disable passwords/root login. Use the AllowUsers setting to restrict which accounts can login.

WTF? Freedom of speech is freedom from censorship by the government. Even that has restrictions, though. You can't incite violence against other people or cause other people to come to harm through your speech (yelling "Fire!" in a theatr

If you exercise regularly and you're still gaining weight, your diet is likely the culprit. Most people have no idea just how horrid their diets are.

This poll is missing an option: I don't use SO because it required OpenID to register. I guess it supports other options now, but back in the day, that's why I never participated.

... yes? That was my point. They switched from a GPL-like license to a BSD one.

I wonder what RMS thinks of the fact that Ruby recently switched from a GPL-like license (Ruby License) to BSD. At any rate, congrats to Matz!
