Multiple calling conventions that allow for inconsistent use of functions for a language with multiple naming conventions resulting in already inconsistent code is... not the most fantastic idea I've ever entertained. It's an interesting id

This doesn't fix that, it just makes it worse. This is an experiment in meta-programming PHP to give it a saner API. Sweet. s() turns all the standard string functions into methods with identical behavior: s($haystack)->pos($needle)

What do you suggest?

But not client-side. Still, better to just do a DNS lookup (not rate-limited) than WHOIS.

I did this too and it was great. Then, one day, I wanted wifi. (I've been warned away from HostAP.)

You can minify without caching.

I don't think that follows from what he said.

Then you would just have two attack vectors; compromise either of the private keys and you can be the MITM.

Using Gmail in mutt directly over IMAP is sloooow. It's a bit more work to set up something like OfflineIMAP, fdm, or something else.

I think this statement requires further explanation.

Javascript was never really designed, but look how that ended up.

Yes. Your home internet connection is not nearly as reliable as a datacenter's. (Also, you have guests over and the 5 year old unplugs the machine. Your home catches on fire or, worse, you decide to move to another city.)

A bit off topic here, but I feel that this is a terrible metric. The reason it's impossible to find answers for how to fix problem X in Windows (besides it being terribly designed) is that there are a ton of users who are trying to be helpf

I am also rather annoyed at issuu. If these were all in one PDF file, this would be much easier to consume.

This sounds a lot like what I started reading at LessWrong: http://lesswrong.com/lw/r5/the_quantum_physics_sequence/ One line that particularly stuck with me is: "Dragging a modern-day student through all this may be a historically realis

There's quite a big difference between "no reason" and "lousy tradeoff."

Based on the post, it doesn't sound like he stuck around and fixed it.

At Mixpanel, we use http://www.exceptionhub.com/ . Much better tracebacks and filtering of useless errors. Tracking of related errors and of browser, referrer, etc. window.onerror is unfortunately lacking in the information it provides. On

Allowing cycles in your graph is confusing. If a user visits pages A -> B -> C -> A, what is the dropoff between A and B?

"For example, why not run the disk performance sensitive DB server on a dedicated machine, while fronting the whole arrangement with proxies and app-servers hosted in the cloud?" That's actually exactly what we do: "We’ve moved 100% of our
