Pretty cool, but is it legal?

Actually, I can't see any cons. The biggest benefit for you is that you don't have to store their passwords. Believe me, you don't want them. And for them, it's easier to sign up, which can therefore make them think that it won't cost much time to just try out the service (even if it's a mobile app, they might think twice if they have to create an account first).

Being so lightweight makes Cleaver far cooler, since that makes it easier to hack on it, and customize it.

"Fat" in which way? Traffic?

I hope you noticed: "This is a satirical column."

I took these screnshots on an iPad. And yes, that was the first device I visited the site on, because in the morning during breakfast, I use it to read some news or look for interesting stuff on HN.

Anyhow, I would've contacted them directly and help them sort it out but I can't seem to find any contact details.

"I think you're being too picky." Oh well, screenshots following... https://www.dropbox.com/s/cfftfq8ubq4rn5q/Foto%2013.07.13%20... https://www.dropbox.com/s/axsg6e27byqy1y6/Foto%2013.07.13%20...

Seriously, the website is crappy. No doctype, images for quotes, the hidden text in the FAQ is completely unnecessary and the site looks like crap on mobile devices. I'm 16 and I could do better than that. In fact, I claim that my websites already looked better when I was 14.

That said, the video looks quite nice.

There's a similar library which does not depend on django and redis, called quickerauth. https://github.com/williamhogman/quickerauth

"These guys are lucky they didn't try Cassandra." Could you explain that further? I'm currently using Cassandra for a new project, so this sentence caught my eyes.

Thanks, I'll give it a try.

Not only for the PS3, you can access it online: https://www.youtube.com/tv

Pretty cool, also wrote one yesterday, using Flask and Cassandra

Looks pretty cool, I think I'll try doing something like that!

Exactly. It's not that interesting. But why should I care if others don't care either? Anyhow, I decided for 2013 that I'll submit anything I write related to programming on HN.

That gets on the front page? I guess I should just post everything I program here from now on (like the Tetris I programmed two weeks ago)

They have a list of who's using MongoDB in production. http://www.mongodb.org/display/DOCS/Production+Deployments

Have to agree with that. Especially the video: He doesn't even seem to try to talk freely at the beginning, and later the music which makes it harder to understand anything. Also, I don't see why I would want to use something like that. I can just use MacVim for editing and Phonegap for native API access. Phonegap also has tutorials for how to package the app (with a web view).

OS development can be fun. I'm writing a hobby OS myself, but currently using GRUB. GDT and interrupts are working, so I can already e.g. get keyboard input. But there's nothing like usermode programs yet. I'm 16, so what bcantrill said might be true ("there is a certain arrogance of youth here").

It would probably be easier to write a new editor (in a different language) from scratch with a compatibility layer for TextMate bundles.

That's obviously a bug. Try restarting OS X or the dock. Already had some memory issues with the Finder, restarting helped.
