I used to have an 'Anyone but godaddy" policy. Then I ended up with some names at eNom and they just emailed me my password. Now I'm shopping around to move.

O_o Do not let the font distract you Not so easy. You're just trolling me now right? I guess… I mean… agh. OK. Sure… I've never thought it a particularly ugly font, I just always thought it was overused and often used in the wrong context

A better question is why is it in comic sans for you? Do you have a user-defined masochistic stylesheet or something?

I don't find this one as informative as similar visualizations I've seen in the past. I think because the files fade out if they haven't been edited in a while you can't really see the progress of the project itself.

My favorite part of punchfork (besides Jeff) are the custom url shorteners. Check out the customize dropdown on the side of a recipe page: http://punchfork.com/recipe/Bramble-Chow Nice little touch.

This is also another example of why having more top level domain names will make things worse, not better.

With Django 1.4 (or the dev version) it will be possible to cryptographically sign a cookie: https://docs.djangoproject.com/en/dev/topics/signing/ You can use this to store the session data with the user without having to consult a databa

One person's "transformation" is another's "mutilation." Right… it's subjective, hence his warning that you should seek permission even if you think it's obvious. Regardless of who's side you fall on in this disagreement, I think everyone

Yes. I don't subscribe to NYTimes, ChiTribune, LA Times or any other traditional media outlet in Google Reader and I use it every day. Although the analogy is flawed, your point still stands that Hulu is nothing without content. The differe

They're pretty standard here in Japan. They look (and work) like wireless doorbells. At first it can be hard to get used to the fact that the waiter won't come over until you've pushed the button but after a while you really start to apprec

Somehow I suspect the process will involve forking a bunch of money over to ICANN.

Absolutely. It's ok if you're installing Django to run some 3rd party software but if you're actually building something you need to support it's important to have more control over your environment/libraries than the system-level package m

Rails and Django are two web frameworks standing at the same place greeting people coming from opposite directions. They are vaguely familiar with what each other are doing, but for the most part are just trying to do what's best for their

If you are using this survey to analyze your market potential I think you should be careful with your wording. First, I would avoid asking Would you consider using… because it's not really relevant to you. Any good business person would c

Was it actually just a DDoS attack? I don't consider that a security vulnerability in the slightest. It's a vulnerability, sure. An availability vulnerability I guess.

This article is extremely good. We always criticize pop-science journalism but in my mind, this is what good technology journalism looks like. I wish to hell that I could subscribe to a magazine like this instead of the hand-wavy baby talk

There is a huge difference between something be "impossible" and something being theoretically impossible. The first is an engineering problem. The second is a much deeper level of problem. The Wright brothers didn't have to overturn any ac

I constantly hear of web services shutting down and I feel guilty for not appreciating them at the time. I'm not going to make that mistake this time. Netcraft has been at it basically as long as I have. I don't read their survey reports re

True, I do believe that money flowing from one person to the next (i.e. spending) encourages progress and opportunity. I think those are (on balance) good things. I think it's good to have some convection in the pool. I don't want a central

The framework itself is perfectly capable of supporting REST as the article we are discussing is evidence. My point is that the default routing, the built-in helper functions, and the documentation for beginners all discourage it. For examp

When you're dead all your savings are worthless (to you), so your likely to spend most of them before then. If that were true, why would there be so much debate around the estate tax? Warren Buffet is a rarity. Most people want to pass mo

RESTfulness is only really desirable in an API. I wouldn't want each one of my views to be in a class, because most views are GET-only REST doesn't mean each of your views is in a class and being GET-only doesn't mean something isn't REST

The main REST framework options for Django seem to be: * Piston ( https://bitbucket.org/jespern/django-piston/ ) * Tastiepie ( http://toastdriven.github.com/django-tastypie/ ) * django-rest-framework ( http://django-rest-framework.org/ ) *
