Isn't this exactly what Docker-Machine does, but without the need for SSH access to the remote machine?

I always thought I was the only one who constantly misclicked those idiotic dropdowns. The same goes for the Circle button, which expands after a while and I always accidentally put people in the wrong circle.

I'm strongly against going down the rabbit hole of implementing something like this. I often encounter the situation where configuration files become complex and it would be a nice-to-have thing to embed logic in them. But then you sta

Sounds interesting. For my usecases, which require few (< 10) messages/sec and no clustering, would I gain anything by using Siberite over Beanstalk?

There is an "About MUBI" link on the top left. A popup with a cleverly disguised slideshow will open, telling you about the price of 4,99€ per month.

Kind of ironic: "To make your website faster, please include this 140KB JavaScript file." Thanks, but no thanks.

We used Redmine for a while, but never got the Ruby stack to perform good (we are a PHP shop, so..). I remember the insane version dependencies ("redmine revision x to y needs package P in revision a to b") and that it seemed to s

In my experience, most Atlassian products are slow as hell, with Bitbucket being among the faster ones. Confluence can maybe control a space shuttle with all its features, but it's slow to a point where it becomes unusable. We evaluate

Just out of principle. You are mis-using crypto primitives, which can lead to bugs so subtle you would never guess they're there. And thanks to the random looking hashes, you will never immediately see that i492tr7gf89que092378gt827 is

Nope, I'm on Windows. I don't need GCC (or any other C compiler for that matter) to install Node, but now I need one because some of my coworkers on Macs decided to throw every possible dependency they could find into the project.

<rant>Yeah I really love how I now not only need Node and npm, but also gcc to install/build a frickin' web project. Because f*ck the platform-independence we got with Node, who cares if a simple `npm install` takes 30 minut

Yeah, cookie-based auth seems suuuper convenient, especially when you build a project that's something like a CMS based on a REST API and you don't want to send auth headers back and forth all the time. But remember: as soon as yo

Modern browsers ship with `JSON.parse()`, but not with ProtocolBuffer.parse(), Thrift.parse() or BSON.parse(). This advantage has nothing to do with eval(), but rather that JSON is pretty much built-in everywhere nowadays.

Sublime Text's performance highly depends on the line length of the loaded files. A 5 MB JSON file as one long line can kill ST, but neatly formatted in 50k lines is no problem. For this reason, I generally use Notepad2 to handle large

Things get ugly when your code grows. I had cases where I started with passing pointers to structs around directly, but at some decided that having dedicated interfaces would be better. But as soon as you're talking interface, pointers

"Operating system" is a really bad choice of words for this. I would call it "Node.js-based CMS". Which, at the moment, only seems to serve static files.

For a second there, I thought this was an official GitHub page and thought "Wow, those GitHub guys really have balls to attack SF that directly". But then I realized it is "helb" and not "help" in the URL.
