You guys need to relax. This is cringey for the Ruby community.

What you've done is fantastic. Is there anything that can be done particularly to help along the mcrypt funeral?

Haha, sorry about that. I forgot about game dev :O

by mikegioia 11y ago
Just out of curiosity, what dev work can't you do on Linux? I usually only hear that case for games or graphic/video editing.

The fact that he calls PHP "developer unfriendly" convinces me that that he's probably written 0 lines of PHP code and worked with 0 PHP developers.

This is really amazing, thanks for the recommendation. The fact that it can record not only my mic but my speakers is blowing my mind right now.

Wow this is the first I'm seeing of Nim. Goodbye, Sunday! Where did this come from...

> Dummy Content and Placeholders We've started doing something similar with our front-end apps, but it's not placeholders. Our router is set up to store page markup (indexed by DOM node ID) at the end of every page request. So

This looks interesting, but the Ubuntu stable release is asking me to download 1.2GB of packages! Holy crap. I'd like to try this out but why on earth is this bigger than the actual distro?

I hope you're right Sebastian :( I've been following the progress, Joerg, you, and everyone else pretty religiously and there's nothing I'd love more than that phone! I miss the n900.

by mikegioia 11y ago
This is ridiculous. Name ONE option for a "completely open smartphone". I've spent the last 4 years in search of just ONE open phone and the closest we've come is the Neo900 (stalled, out of money) the Freerunner (produc

I think the word ordering is confusing, though. It's a Push Request and a Request to Pull.

Yea I know he mentions Android and ChromeOS, but I'm mostly asking where the info is to support his claim that "we know they're tracked by default". I've never come across anything yet related to ChromeOS that even

Which operating systems other than Win10 do we know track you by default?

For us it was a combination of things. It was never really service/uptime related, but I can't count the number of in-app Javascript errors or weird UI decisions they made. The issues were just not good enough and the web pages we

If you can, avoid Bitbucket. We used them for a few years and it just wasn't good, through and through. I've been really impressed with Gitlab and we use that as a backup right now but I really think I'll be moving all of our

How about you take your own advice then? Just because I and millions of others don't think the web is "horribly overengineered", doesn't mean I "don't know anything about engineering".

This is from your comment history: I have to admit that I did not do any web development ... I also know about it from interaction with frontend developers themselves and from toying around it Do you believe that peop

Is this sarcasm or just ignorance?

Yea me too. What I really want is something that looks like Trello where the first list is my Inbox, and then there are 2-3 other lists that I can make up like "This week", "Next week" etc.
82.
by mikegioia 11y ago
I completely agree with this. I manage my inbox the same way and stare at lists thinking that as well. Are you using any different email client right now?

It could be that they were giving away (for free) 30 requests/second and 1 million device installs.

What's even more ridiculous is that their homepage says: From startups to the Fortune 500, hundreds of thousands of developers *trust us*. Trust you to what? Pull the rug out at some point? Why they even put that word on t

This is a strange comment that starts in one place, and ends with your musings on the collapse of Mozilla. First off, Mozilla didn't have FF "fall into their lap" from Netscape. Netscape spun it off and gave birth to Mozilla.

Why is an Exception only something final? Exceptions can be caught, even by type. I regularly use exceptions to break and resume long-running daemons. These exceptions have nothing to do with the user nor the end to the program. I don'

That's interesting and probably more in line with what I need to do. It wouldn't be difficult for me to bring the entire stack online in another datacenter, but if all of your customer data resides on (for simplicity) a master SQL

by mikegioia 11y ago
This is what I'd like to know too. It's easy to suggest mirroring your infrastructure on multiple providers but in practice it's very difficult. Multi-master SQL in particular is non-trivial and that's just one piece of

This may be a dumb question as I haven't read the bill, but isn't this what CISA is supposed to help guard against in the future? If Linode has an easier way of sharing info with the USG, can that help pinpoint and mitigate this a
