Because nginx is really good at streaming, on a huge number of connections, simultaneously.

What kind of desktop software have you bought? It's kind of hard fighting in that arena when you are just starting, you don't have enough visibility and there is lots of competition with alternative (but not as good fit) products.

This seems to be easily bypassed even if you dynamically generate the shapes.

What? I'm sorry, but what? The point of profilers is to find memory leaks and performance bottlenecks while disregarding the performance of the app with the profiler running. Who cares if the profiler is making the app run slower. You aren'

I would first try and add a new server just as file store behind those web servers, the web servers would upload the file to this server and proxy requests to it (using a cache on the web server to speed up repeated requests). In case we ca

My hypothesis is that we are alone and the creation of sapient life is a very very rare thing. The chance of life appearing, on top of the chance of the life being capable of getting more complex (multi-cellular), on top of the chance of li

The difference between these custom scrollbars is that (in modern browsers) they are still scrollbars that work exactly like other scrollbars and only look different.

This would be awesome but I don't think the usual Lego blocks would work in this case. In minecraft you can "snap" blocks sideways, something that is impossible with these blocks. I was thinking, why not use small internal magnets? It would

Actually, this should increase the number of trials and customers for Freshdesk. It's like playing chess. Zendesk made a bad move and Freshdesk used that move to respond brilliantly.

I'm not suprised. I wouldn't trust backify.com or livedrive.com for the reason that they sell "unlimited space" for a flat fee. There is no such thing as unlimited. The Backify guy(s) obviously never heard of this and tried to offer a free

I also recommend playing a game like lemonade tycoon, it pretty much explains stuff like this.

Do you warn your users that their work is saved? Maybe that lack of information in the interface is what is making them email you about it.

It's a shame that Redis development is focused more on keeping the data on memory than using the hard drive. Really bad for people like me that use VPSes with low memory but decent hd space. (eg: 512MB RAM vs 20GB HD)

I thought this was a reference to Ted's "Node is Cancer": http://teddziuba.com/2011/10/node-js-is-cancer.html Seems that nowadays lots of things are cancer.

Never had problem with the London datacenter. I was on Newark before hand and I don't remember having many problems (maybe 1 or 2 times in a couple of years). Avoid Fremont at all costs (unless you really need a server in that location), it

So, yet again another easy-to-use & modern payment gateway that doesn't work outside of the US. Sometimes I wonder why I even bother to check these links since I already know it's going to be the same. I will not hold my breath for in

It's one more file that you have to support and keep in sync with the rest of the code. I absolutely hate header files. If I want to get the high view of a class I just collapse the code to definitions (eg: Alt+0 on notepad++), all decent e

Wouldn't it be better to use a JavaScript face detector? Like http://liuliu.me/detect/detect.html I don't know the details about this algorithm though, no idea if you can get the proper position for the mustache.

Trying to track every car they sell would be ludicrous. I'm guessing they put this on the review/test cars. Which makes sense.

You wouldn't ask that if you checked the PDF File Format documentation. It's scary. Really really scary.
