Can you elaborate more on specifics, like what type of objects do you store on Storj, how's the performance?

The cost is already estimated with junior-levels in mind. If you want the A-team to be present all the time, say it upfront and surely proposals will be changed.

this is wrong, at least according to my experience living in Germany 10 years ago

You must be new to FB blockings. Our company has a website ranked in the top ten most visited websites in our country, and FB just block the domain entirely from FB systems without any explanation. They only unban us recently.

recently when I want to buy something, I will find some pages on FB that sell the products, then refresh my newsfeed a few times to see FB ads suggestions :)

What's wrong with GG Drive? In my country people use GG Drive to share all kind of files.

Since disk space is not much of problem this day, why don't we just pre-process the images? I know this only applies if you know in advance which sizes you want, but do you really need like 20 different sizes of an image?

It's the same as using your private SSH key to sign in to your servers from different devices, you can choose to generate a new pair of private/public key or just copy your private key from old device to new ones. But reuse privat

The immediate question that popped up when I first see their project's homepage is "How is it different from Bootstrap? Why should I use it?" I looked around and they don't offer an explanation, so I left and continue to

If you need raw performance, have a look at WebNX, they are specialized in high end dedicated servers, boxes with Xeon E5 and 64GB RAM are in the range $150-$200. I find Softlayer or Rackspace quite overpriced. There are many other smaller

No, not the lag of seeing the sent messages appear 20 second later in the "Sent" view. But I do notice the slowness when I search for old, archived mails. Searches for new mails are much faster, you can see the result returned almost instan

I think it's pretty much de facto standard that you must disclose first hand before you sign the lease contract whether you rent the place for living or for business. Subletting is not always forbidden but you have inform the landlord befor

Tip: You can use KeyRemap4Macbook [1] to map the stupid eject button on MBP to delete. And if you use vim, you can map Escape to Delete and vice versa. Very useful. [1] http://pqrs.org/macosx/keyremap4macbook/

Completely agree, I had a MBP and a MBA with German (qwertz) keyboard and Apple's layout sucks big time.

Do you use proprietary nVidia driver? I have only ATI cards and the difference between open source driver and proprietary driver is world apart. With radeon I have +2 hours, with fglrx it's ~4 hours.

Exactly, setting up a mail server is not hard. What's hard is that you have to keep your server secure; have to make backups, and make sure that backups work; have to troubleshoot problems when mails are not delivered, god knows how much ti

$140 for a second gen i5 and 8GB of ram is pretty reasonable. A $20 VPS is only for pet projects. For a startup it's worth it to invest in a/some dedicated server(s). Having some redundant firepower of dedicated servers so that you don't ha

Actually what kind of benefits an IRC bouncer provides over running irssi on my server? Aren't those advantages that you listed (except the push notification function) can have in irssi as well?

I use this on my Iphone: http://pgl.yoyo.org/adservers/ To prevent those annoying widget buttons, use NoScript or Ghostery. Of course NoScript's white list method is more secure but I like Ghostery's blacklist approach more. It's tiresome

* Ditching Apache for nginx will make the biggest impact. * Run PHP with php-fpm (bundled in latest PHP 5.3) * Use a PHP accelerator like APC.

Sure, that's why I wrote "online (display) advertising", which often has its cost measured in CPM, not in CPC, so CTR doesn't matter. This shows advantages of CPC ads over traditional display advertising and partially explains the success o

It's a problem of information asymmetry in the online (display) advertising industry, not a problem with hackers. Because advertisers don't know how many pageviews/visitors a website has, advertising agencies often have to make purchasing d

No, it's not the same issues. I'm not a programmer, but I know that offering a well designed API to a service has nothing to do with its code being closed or not. When I was learning to program, I was very interested in 3 Google's core prod

Ugh, I think you are mistaking between open source and being a platform here. A platform need not to be open source.

If you just want to hide the storage function, why waste the time tinkering with the mouse? I think I've seen an USB stick disguised as an USB extension cable somewhere.

Yeah, after I read your comment I recheck my Pingdom's logs, those weird timeout errors since one year ago are now gone (I've switched to CloudFlare). Back then I was scratching my head wondering why Pingdom generated so much errors from ra

Why Varnish in front of Nginx? AFAIK Nginx can pretty much handle the role of Varnish.
