I'm rather annoyed that you're not reading anything I've said. No, the problem is not that I haven't read the page. I have. It can cause segfaults. Your configuration can cause segfaults. Your configuration can cause

Yes, I linked to IfIsEvil. The fact that you need a page to document the horrible behavior because it's too late to fix it is a sign that something is very wrong with the config syntax.

Slightly off-topic, but I'm sad that people still use apt-get. aptitude is pretty much just better[1]. Also, if you're reading this article you probably don't need the slightly better performance/throughput of nginx. Ngi

While I agree with your point, I think you chose a poor example. In the last 10 years, URIs have changed to no longer refer to a path on the filesystem (yes yes, there are still a ton of old sites that do). A lot of new web frameworks start

So you _do_ think that this is a valid, enforceable patent that represents how the system _should_ work?

Hetzner is very open, transparent, and exact in their communication about this. I'm not a customer but I really like that they didn't try to dress anything up and were forthcoming with information.

Click this patent[1]. Click "Original document". Tell me with a straight face that this is not patent trolling. They patented "the ornamental design for an electronic device" which is a "thin rectangular cuboid with rounded corners"[2]. Tel

Because if you sign into one, you expect to be signed into the others. If you're signed into all of them, you don't want to have to go to every Google service and log out of them.

There's a difference between being presented with stats and a company's homepage which is designed specifically to get you on board. It's not that I don't trust anything I hear, it's that I assume that a company is cherry-picking the best a

You find it hard to believe that people would pay for things without understanding what they are? I don't understand your premise. Do you honestly think the Basecamp homepage communicates what it is? As stated earlier, the description could

So you're saying Basecamp tries to accurately portray a neutral individual making a decision to use or not use their product rather than someone who's conclusion supports their agenda? That's beyond ridiculous. That's one step beyond believ

While it may be the case that this version of their homepage has been tested to yield the best conversion, that seems completely irrelevant to my point: "the Basecamp homepage does a very poor job of communicating what it is ".

OK, it's rude. But Basecamp makes mistake #2 from the article, which is actually a mistake to call it a mistake. Really? Testimonials? Out of all of the potential and made-up customer feedback, you've hand-selected a few data points to adve

A company is not a "patent troll" unless the company makes a living only doing it. However, what Apple brought against Samsung and what is being described here is a pretty clear-cut case of patent trolling.

And that assumes you're willing to host with those providers, many of whom don't provide computing power. Also, the machine learning service you are using has to pay again for that bandwidth too and that cost gets passed along to you.

Storing terabytes is cheap. Terabytes of bandwidth is very very expensive.

You mean websockets? Those try to support all the legacy of HTTP proxies (which I don't understand the point of).

So... instead of disagreeing out of hand, how did you overcome the fact that you had to pay for bandwidth between your terabytes of data and the computation centers?
