I was having the same issue so I created a simple site that polls the site every 2 minutes and attributes points according to where in the top 30 a story was located and maintains the rankings for every day. It is ridiculously simple, but I

In the spirit of making things easier, it would be great if you could also post how open you are to qualified applicants from other countries and what help you can provide, if any, with visas/citizenship. This might seem like a fringe reque

What is so wrong exactly with basic material? Sure you might know CSS inside out, but I'd be willing to bet some people here could learn something useful out of it. The rest of us that already are familiar with it get a quick refresher in u

I don't think it has yet. It's really easy to connect to hosted NOSQL environments though, if that's your cup of tea. AFAIK there are some solutions for most of them: MongoHQ, Couch.io and another one for Redis I can't recall. You could als
