Will the talk be recorded? I'm interested, but not at Stanford (unfortunately!) Even just slides would be good, if applicable.

That pattern is pretty common in general, no? I use the same url dispatch array in Tornado projects.

I'm also a Python dev, and my observation from several threads here (and elsewhere) is that the perception is quite common. IANARailsDev, obviously.

There's a (Dilbert?) comic somewhere out there about this. Can't find it at the moment, though :-/ edit found it: http://dilbert.com/dyn/str_strip/000000000/00000000/0000000/...

I'd really like an imgur-style left/right arrow navigation, maybe with up/down arrows being save/delete. At the end, give me a page with all of the ones I 'upvoted'?

Had the pleasure of meeting the cofounders at a career fair last year; really nice guys. A friend ended up working at WillowTree and enjoyed the experience.

Not sure about doing it on a thinkpad, but there are ways to use OSX in a virtualbox image. I've seen such a system (i5, 12gb ram) run rather smoothly.

I go to Virginia Tech, and people all the time say "Isn't that where those people were killed? Do you feel safe there?" Yes, yes I do. The alert response system here is impressively fast. Good luck getting our response time at any other

I've had a lot of success combining melatonin, low light before bedtime, drinking a moderate amount of water before bed, and f.lux (software). I use a heavier dose Friday+Saturday night to help me stay with a normal sleep schedule.

Hi! I'm developing a smartphone version of Assassins; I have some screenshots up at http://hoka.imgur.com/ The server code is written in Python and hosted by heroku! If anyone's interested in helping out or testing the game, shoot me a P

yeah, +1. In this religious war, I side with "if anyone who has a reasonable level of competence with my code can't grasp it at first reach, I have failed in writing it." Or, famously, "Debugging is twice as hard as writing the code in the

it's possible that it was a method all along, just callable as a property? I haven't looked at the source.

"Is it possible to share a house with friends, or a spouse, or your kids, without ever "doing something you don't want to do"?" I get what you and the OP mean, but I think there's an implicit cost that we're willing to pay in this case. Do

Oh wow, this looks amazing. I just ctrl+clicked 16 talks :-) I'm a student, and your student pricing is great. If only air fare wasn't 4x the cost from where I am. I might still come, though! It's an investment in myself.

Add a 'mix' category and I'll pay you if it's done well! New tracks are all well and good, but the continuity of mixes really helps me get in the groove. I've listened to the Essential Mixes, and follow a bunch of podcasts/dj radio shows,

One hack that has really, really helped me is putting what I'm doing next into my git commit logs. For example: git commit -a -m "Finished writing tests for Car model. Now implementing car.drive, car.park, and car.accelerate."

depends on what you're looking for. If it will get you into the gym and nothing else will, go for it. If you don't have the interest or discipline to go on your own, go for it. If you'd like to see maximal strength/muscle gains, go see a

I'll definitely give it a shot. From a usability perspective, your download button could be better. It doesn't download right away (which is fine), but redirects to downloads/win for me. Might be nice to have it auto-scroll to the win dow

I was watching the news last week and was struck by a fact that I didn't consider: Iron Dome missiles cost upwards of $50,000 to shoot down rockets costing ~$800. I suppose those $800 rockets could do way more than $50,000 in damage if the

His comment wasn't argumentative or anti-Shark Tank. The owners are well aware of both situations, and it's their right to make the choice. For some businesses, that 5% is well worth the prime time informercial. And I imagine everyone who

I don't think LinkedIn is good for this at all. I see things like earnings press releases on LinkedIn, or "XYZ, Inc. invents new 2nm transistor that won't be around for 300 years." on LinkedIn. LinkedIn presents itself as a social network
