there is a way around that. just install the new relic addon, and configure it to check your sites availability once every minute.(on a production site you want that anyway to get alerts if the app is down, and might need a restart) like Do

https://github.com/diaspora/diaspora for example. diaspora is also using backbone.js for some front-end stuff, which is quite interesting to have a look at. also, check out http://railsapps.github.com/rails-examples-tutorials.html

i usually don't mind sending a tweet to get free stuff. i did it to get an awesome free font the other day for example. what bothers me with this site is: after sending the tweet you are not done. you still have to create an account first.

i wish you luck finding someone, because i know how good it feels to have a mentor. but if you don't: don't worry. you actually don't need a (single) mentor. the internet is your mentor. i started learning rails 2-3 month ago, and because o

agreed. in the release note it says "Authors should stop using this option as a way to get hardware acceleration"... this sounds like there is an other option to do it, does anyone know?

as an add-on question... does anyone have experience with selling wordpress plugins? is there a market for commercial plugins, or are most people not willing to pay since there is a lot of free stuff?

just for doing basic css stuff. i'm just too lazy or maybe don't enjoy interfacing enough to do it manually. for example if i'm creating a new landingpage and just need a simple layout it would be really cool if there was a tool i could qui

slightly off-topic: i'm not a big reddit user, so i dont know whats what. can you recommend a good subreddit for showing webapps. is there a show-hn-like subreddit?

by muellerwolfram 14y ago
wow lots of great advice. thanks for the feedback, especially the long-url-thing blew my mind...it's so obvious..but i never thought of it!

1) hard to say. i started 2 month ago, and maybe spend about 3 hours a day on average on app-related stuff. when i started i only had little experience in rails, but had absolutly no experience in backbone. so it took me quite a while to ge

by muellerwolfram 14y ago
thanks. yeah seo is a hard one, since the app is basically just images...

oh thanks, good call with the unticking thing. i didn't even notice that. the colors are tagged by a script. i wrote a scraper for all of these marketplaces, which collects all the data, takes a screenshot, (tries) to guess the main color a
