I always want to say this, but figure that I would get banned as well. Fun.

Consider it the "invisible hand" of Salesforce.com at work. They have a single-minded focus on Java technology, and they will go after the easy money at the Java shops (they know how to sell these things).

Hm, my impression is more along the lines of, "this probably was hacked together in a weekend and might be discarded in another." It's not a fair impression, but my snap judgment is that if somebody is invested in their product, they'd put

I think that's it, and I probably heard the term "fuck you money" in the discussion following.

I must be crazy then. I would've sworn that aaronsw wrote a blog post where he talked about having "fuck you money", depression, and other things like that.

Didn't he write a blog post about having "fuck you money" a few years ago? I can't find it now.

Celery is one of the easiest things to set up. It really doesn't get much simpler. Your configuration is living in your django project as python source code, and `celeryd` is no-fuss.

Array.prototype.forEach and friends are trivial to shim and shouldn't be broken for anybody.

Why would you tell somebody that they completely agree with you when they just said that they disagreed? That's so rude. You say "That's cowboy programmer bullshit", he says "I completely disagree." Do you really think there's a chance he s

There's no great reason for a small shop to use Github rather than hosting the repositories themselves.

I'm referring to the real inflation of the currency: There is no mechanism for new bitcoins to be created when all blocks are confirmed. You need to create new currency to avoid deflation because populations grow.

Innocent until proven guilty? Conspiracy theorists would tell you that there's no surer way to discredit somebody with no real evidence than to publicize a salacious sex story.

The source is a "tweet" saying that a truck carrying the next day's supplies for the embassy (whatever those comprise) was turned away. This message was from ... Wikileaks. But the BBC reported police surrounding the embassy so it is not un

Bitcoin price will continue to rise unless something happens causing confidence in the currency to collapse. It is designed to never inflate, and as more blocks are confirmed, we see that it deflates.

I guess I prefer the fire-and-forget approach, only going back to edit my own comments for spelling and grammar ("EDIT: ... EDIT 2: ... is sort of grating to me). You make a good point though, and I don't believe that comment-self-awareness

I'm apathetic, but please let's not start the trend of self-aware "downvote me" or "why the downvotes?" comments on this website. I'm of the opinion that it's needless, manipulative clutter.

There's also Beanstalk which I believe was the original github-style Subversion service.

OK, sorry if I offended you, it's just that some "trolls" are quite subtle and there are enough iffy things that I suspected a joke behind this. The project name also bears similarity to some other projects that have been jokes in the past:

.io seems solidified as branding indicating that the business is oriented to developers, being a niche of "B2B." It may feel like a fad but the TLD is valuable for reasons other than availability, unlike deliberate misspellings you cite suc

I didn't know github offered an appliance, that sounds like a good fit for those folks as long as it's priced reasonably.

This then requires exposing a crucial part of your development workflow at a public URL (even if the resource is authenticated). For various reasons, this is quite simply a non-starter for many shops who might otherwise be prepared to bite

I have little doubt that a great many of the programmers here adopted DVCS long before commercial web frontends became popular. You have it backwards: Github has git to thank, and not the other way around.

It is simpler and easier to set up a new git repository on a webserver than it is to do the same on github. It is also simpler to set up post-receive hooks and the like when you want them to do sophisticated things. The ramp-up to get git w

Yes, there's been a trend recently of "I'm redesigning X, completely from scratch, because it needs it" with the implication that X's current design is badly in need of improvement. This is going to bring the designer both positive and nega
