Please, if you're going to use a default Bootstrap layout, at least add a background image. Something as minor as: background-image: url(http://subtlepatterns.com/patterns/brillant.png) will make a difference. (And please don't hotli

I'm not an authority on this, but django_bcrypt is generally considered a best-practice in the Django community. Scrypt may replace that in the future, once implementations are widely available and battle-tested.

It would be equally wrong to allow everyone to settle the West Bank but Jews. The situation is difficult and the property laws effect everyone who tries to build without permission, which is almost everyone: The Jewish settlement of Ulpana

Because anyone who thinks the Israeli-Palestinian conflict has a simple resolution is likely unaware of all the facts. Furthermore, this is a conflict between Israelis and Palestinians without Israeli citizenship, not Jews and non-Jews. Obv

No, I deliberately used the term "civil union", not "marriage" for that reason. The distinction is hairy, so I'm just going to quote Wikipedia: Israeli law recognizes same-sex marriages performed elsewhere... It does not, however, allow sa

Then let me clarify: I condemn this as well. It has to stop. There have been comments below calling for America to stop supporting Israeli. I want to point out how exceptionally uncommon this type of behavior is.

Please do not make broad statements about Israel based on one article. Israel allows civil unions, allows homosexuals to serve in the military without restrictions, supports Muslim private schools, pays for Islamic religious activities, and

Israel has an excellent Supreme Court which has stopped behavior like this in the past. From wikipedia: The Court has ruled on numerous issues relating to the Israeli-Palestinian conflict, the rights of Arab citizens of Israel, and on disc

This is an excerpt from a soon-to-be-published book, so some of the quotes might be much older.

I could be wrong, but I don't think this is speculation: * Iran funds Hezbolla: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Funding_of_Hezbollah * Iran funds the Islamic Jihad: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Islamic_Jihad_Organization * Iran funds Hamas

I don't know about the states, but we (Israel) have been on the receiving end of actual terrorism and sabotage through Iranian proxy groups. Stuxnet seems mild compared to funding suicide bombings.

Also consider using Johnny Cache or CacheMachine backed by memcached. Johnny Cache does automatic invalidation, but will invalidate an entire table's cache on one write. If you have a site with a small number of writes, this is an easy and

Where is this true? It was most likely "sudo rm -rf .*" which will actually go BACKWARDS up the tree as well. Edit: At the very least, this doesn't work on OS X 10.5, Ubuntu 10.04 (server edition), and CentOS 5.8. For example: $

The presentation declares, "Java is not the new Cobol." It shocks me that a major company like Oracle would be so foolish as to make a statement like this. Stating that something is not is one of the most effective ways to imply that it

I'm not advocating working on projects in secret. Once you have something even slightly ready, by all means share it. Incessantly talking about what you're going to do before you've done anything isn't admirable in my books.
