   Is this really secure? Isn't there a big risk to ease signature forging?

   I once started developing such a tool, but abandoned it when I understood the web browser is not a safe environment. You can't trust the javascript you execute: http://www.matasano.com/articles/javascript-cryptography/ For another example

   I've kept an eye on felix-lang the last several months, and the project seems to be progressing continuously. I'm curious though: has it been used in production? I'd be very interested in reading real use stories, with up and down sides!

   > My standard of living is something I won't compromise on. Maybe you phrased it stronger than intended, but this rejection of any compromise feels very egoistic and short-sighted. This is unrelated to the article itself, which I didn't

   I went back to university and had to work less as a consequence. I'm very happy of my decision. Of course, my earnings took a serious hit, and that's probably the biggest reason only few people do work less. But I consider it was worth it!

   I went to their homepage, but I don't see a link there to a description of the project (something like an 'About' page describing the project and its goals)....

   The thing is, this event is usually uncommon, whereas in this architecture it is quite common.

   There's a fallback according to the capabilities of the UA. For example I still can view the content of their website, which is a Wt app, with lynx. You can also do a wget and see what content you get.

   Wt is also a framework enabling you to develop web applications without the need to manage client-server communications. It's available as a C++ version and a java version ( http://www.webtoolkit.eu/jwt ) usable with any JVM language (ie

    We're considering entering the wedding business with an app. Would your wife consider telling us what she thinks of it? If yes, let me know (see my profile for email), it would be great!

    Well, the referer is set by the browser, so it is the browser that it not setting said HEADER. I'm not sure it is mandatory to be set either [1], so it might be correct correct behaviour according to the spec, even though it's not what migh

    Actually, he does not live without time, as he looks at the sun to know the time of the day and know if he's done working for the day. He might live without a clock, but then I think the clock is a human technology that has to be mastered,

    There was a post not so long ago on HN about prices of logos. I wonder how much they paid for this one (I hope not too much because I feel I could have done it: select a font, write ebay, color letters with colors of old logo).

    I'm very interested to know more about your use of racket in production. Could you share your experience?

    Very good initiative, but giving an epub option would have been even better.

    Looks interesting. I would have prefered the use of () in place of {} though.

    Fixed headers also break the pagedown behaviour: when you press the page down key, you miss some lines that are hidden below the fixed headers. (If we mean the same thing by fixed headers)

    I find the layout awful for a print version. And the PDF document has chapter links that lead to the website, rather than the page in the PDF. I can live with that if I generate a PDF from web content, but I'd expect a book to have a better

    This is no rocket science, I've implemented it years ago on an EC2 cloud managed with Scalarium. I'd expect any self respecting sysadmin to come up with such a solution.

    I experience it first hand as I am implementing a machine learning algorithm described in a paper. There are questions arising on what and how they did their experiments and on details of the algorithm, which I can't deduce from the paper .

    The article mentions that employees visiting Facebook from inside use an experimental build. Any idea how they manage this if the experimental build requires changes in the data structures used by the site?

    It is not similar to GWT: GWT is client side only, with Wt you develop one code-base all in one language (C++ or a JVM language) that handles transparently server side and client side operations, including communication between both sides.
