With any of these three platforms you could be doing this project in an afternoon. Processing isn't any harder than Ruby. You can do it. Check out http://Raspberry.io for some resources the python community put together to use Raspberry P

We support the swift API for object storage. A single system keeps many replicas, it's analogous to an AZ in s3 if you're familiar with AWS.

We're pushing a _ton_ upstream and we don't have any proprietary forks.

Yeah, many people are furthering OpenStack by 1) building on it, in an open-source (or combined OSS+Comercial) fashion, and 2) Selling Consulting and Services. We are doing it by making an appliance that you plug servers into and get OpenS

Yeah, that's correct, we're a computer systems company. We're making hardware, and the software that goes on it.

It was really, really cool to see all the young folks around this year. I'm glad your son could come.

That is the exact opposite of my experience.

There is a next door group in my neighborhood. It's by no means local news. It's a mix of complaining about parking and things like that, links to actual local news (local paper/online journal), asking for recommendations for babysitters an

I like this model. I like open source because if you get hit by a bus as an indie dev, somebody like me can keep going. I do disagree that people wouldn't use it now (if it is in some state of working) and you could raise money if you want

Any details on the criticism? All curiosity for me at this point.

1. Using recent django (1.4+) will get you _very good_ password storing security. Use HTTPS and you're "as good as anybody else". no persona/openid needed 2. Django has signed cookie sessions (optional to be used) and a solid signing librar

What's up with the full photo of a credit card? (I understand the size comparison aspect).

I do really like this one. Been trying to think of a decent way to do pipelining. If you haven't noticed, it is possible to do chaining with the existing API, but it's one request/call.

As an aside, What I really need for this system is a wall-switch that doesn't clobber the state. Right now if you cut power completely (use the wall switch) it loses all it's last settings and turns into roughly the visual equivalent of a

The security issue is that they're sending my data back to their sites (phone homes) via HTTP not HTTPS. Schedules, on/off status and device hashes. At that point if you had the traffic it would be fairly trivial to pretend you were one of

I haven't gotten around to writing an application with it yet, just futzing from the terminal. I agree that it's a wart, I pretty much stopped once I got it all working here, and until tonight I haven't had much outside interest in this one

I tried to get service, but I'm 15k feet away, so it was unbearable. I'm calling them before I sign my next lease I think.

Pretty sure my mom has never tried to guess a URL. URLs should be great, you should treat them as a first-class user interface, but not the only one.

I wish that I had a better response for this. I don't. Scaling is hard. It's work, It's not usually magic and you have to understand a lot about your system to get it right. Peppering in a few cache statements and figuring out the proper qu

These are the problems you have with any Django app as you learn to scale it, they're not inherent to Tastypie. They're why prefetch_related and select_related exist, you're Doing Things Right.
