Indeed, I was not trying to evangelize SaaS/PaaS :) I'm quite bored of seeing clients wasting founding money on heroku stack, where they first pay incredible amount to have unix processes, then pay a service to have email sending, then one

That's indeed the core of the problem. If your server is properly set up, you probably have one unix user per app, with other home directories not traversable and you can simply add a temporary ssh key. But then again, if customer have diff

Also, being able to combine rss with custom filters mentionned in other comments would be a killer feature - in order to be able to get all of one interest from the world most active tech feed. Yes, it begins to be difficult feature request

Great idea. Maybe a quick fix for that, before implementing such a different change, would be to automatically point to the most active fork in project description when there hasn't been activity for a while. Being able to accept in a fork

> Because if "pain" and "emotions" are felt pretty much in the same way by animals and humans (for which there is more and more evidence on that as we learn how the brain works), why would it be moral to inflict pain to animals but amor

by oelmekki 13y ago
It's certainly honorable to want to give rights to animals and it wouldn't be a "wtf" moment if they declared they wanted animal rights (or chimpanzee rights in that case) based on current human right. But granting human right to chimpanzee

If you mean replacing analytics for your website, piwik is the answer : http://piwik.org/ If you mean not being tracked by analytics, well, it's quite simple : # cat /etc/hosts 127.0.0.1 www.google-analytics.com googleadservices.com edit:

Spamassassin does quite a good job at spam detection. And you can configure its aggressiveness to fit what you prefer.

I've just switched to self-hosted one week ago. I do not want to wait until google decide mails are not profitable enough.

Maybe you could provide some place to keep track of who has been notified ? Or even better : handle a "report" form yourself, so sources are notified only once and wild internet don't know if source may be watching its logs or not.

Also, sorry for highschoolers, but this is for their own good :) I had my own "let's see what we can do" youth, and sure thing it is very insightful. If we were talking only about business damage, I would say : "well, they desserve it". But

by oelmekki 14y ago
Well, it would be way better if we could add some kind of "source notified" flag directly on the database, we do not want to add mail flood to security breach. :)

It would kill your business eventually so it may me a naive question but : do you need volunteer work to help identify and warn those insecure networks ?

Great. It may offer a good way to build some kind of open alternative to google now.

Congrats, it looks great. So, if I understand correctly, it let people crowdsource any kind of structured and descriptive data ?

I like that idea. I've never felt like github forking was a pain or something, but this may solve the problem of having a lot of forks going in several directions when upstream is not proactive enough in accepting pull requests : it will be

I totally subscribe to this vision. I just would have read it more clearly in the article, that's kind of ambiguous, like : "1°) religious people are hurted when you argue with them, 2°) here is what you would feel in their place". Conclusi

I'm totally not in memory optimization, but I suppose an app memory size is directly proportional to its required gems' size ? Or is it in the contrary quite insignificant in runtime memory ?
