You can run those through your console on the host machine like normal, with the added SSH piece. Or you could set your editor/IDE up to do that after changes (if required).

You can edit and browse on your host VM. Just adjust the VM's network settings and use a shared host-guest folder for the code (what exactly this ends up being varies based on the virtualization). You really can make it a near exact match f

It's a lot different when you're working with certain teams of mixed technical aptitudes. An automatically assembled VM image I can distribute means much less time supporting our less technical members of the dev team (front-end, designers,

It's not always a good solution for your entire team. I run Linux on my desktop, but have found that the touchpad drivers (even the experimental ones) just really suck on Linux+Macbook Pro to the point where it's either external mouse (not

Back when we were evaluating API frameworks earlier in the year, this is where TastyPie was: http://toastdriven.com/blog/2013/feb/05/committers-needed-ta... It's still not clear how the project will do without its original maintainer goin

I'll take boilerplate over magic any day. The thing that irked me the most about TastyPie was the magic and lack of obvious understanding of what was happening under the hood (without source diving). The Zen of Python has something to say a

We looked at and started playing with TastyPie over at Pathwright, but ultimately found that it was very difficult to customize to our needs (mostly with respect to custom API resources, custom filtering, and very fine-grained permissions b

That's cool, but as a consumer I don't care one bit. Market cap, sales, revenues, I just don't care at all. These are much more important "metrics" to me personally (as a consumer): * Innovation relative to peers. * The value of their offer

It translates fairly directly as well, even with the differences in OO and multi-processing/threading.

As someone who is also really enjoying Go, I think you need to add a huge, gigantic disclaimer before making a statement like this: Go's ecosystem of web development packages is in its infancy. You're not going to find any super-well-docume

This. OVH is a budget provider. While this doesn't excuse them from fault here, you definitely get what you pay for in this case.

Android shows the permissions each app is requesting before you install, and even lets you know if they change their permissions between updates. While what Path did is crappy, they didn't subvert the Android permissions system. The thing t

if this is a big enough concern, it may be best to just drop down a level of abstraction and run directly on AWS.

CPython is a bit faster than Ruby, but I'm not sure it'd be drastic enough of a difference for it to be much better in the author's case. Porting his code to PyPy would be very interesting, though.

Agreed. I was thinking it was under graphs until I saw the image.

The timing for this post is hilarious. They just massively pissed off a large chunk of their third party developers, and an even larger chunk of the players that depend on third party apps: https://forums.eveonline.com/default.aspx?g=posts

Completely anecdotal, but Comcast just bumped me up about 30% from 15 mbps. The customer service still stinks, and the service itself is still very spotty and unreliable.

Except that the "new monopolist" is currently thrashing the "old monopolist". It's almost like they are having to... compete. Also, they bought out a municipal fiber outfit. They're not kicking competitors out. They're just completely outcl

In what cases would it ever make sense to "donate" to this? I ask this not to be silly, I really am genuinely curious if anyone actually does this, and for what reasons.

I think you're correct here. Postgres has had lots of optimization work specifically for Linux and Unix/BSD. The Linux kernel has also had some optimization done to improve hot paths that Postgres hits. I'm sure the Postgres team has kept a

It varies wildly based on platform, filesystem, hardware, and usage cases. Is your workload write-heavy? Is it more read-heavy than write-heavy? How much query throughput are you talking? At the smaller scale, it doesn't really matter. At t

As a current user of Python 2.x, I can't wait to make the jump to 3, and have already done so for a few of my personal projects. It's probably best not to generalize too much.

I haven't tried the other pooling managers, but I'm not sure they're going to be able to go toe to toe with pgbouncer alone. Though, I wonder if a combination of the pooling manager and pgbouncer would be worth a shot.

This. I don't understand why this isn't mentioned more often. Developer convenience and productivity are important things, but the future integrity of your application shouldn't be compromised for either. There are legitimate usage cases fo

I guess I just don't find schema that big a deal even in the early goings. A relational DB schema isn't necessarily hard to change and adapt on the fly. I don't feel like this is the best thing for Mongo to hang its hat on, and I'm not sure

Wow, this is quite a jump. Great to see Linode continue to lower costs and improve quality. It's also important to note that if the billing system stays the same, each instance you purchase increments your account-wide bandwidth pool. For e
