Either clear your cache or do a hard refresh (hold Cntl & hit refresh) You're seeing a remnant of pg's fix from last week's downtime.

I feel the same with Apple's Safari. If you're making a browser and its platform specific, the internet would be a better place if you'd put it out to pasture.

You want to use about:config. More details on it are at https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/questions/967266

Lenovo X1 Carbon or Lenovo X240 (particularly if you routinely use your laptop at the same location - then their dock is worth its weight in gold.)

Do all System76's still have that massive PSU? I had a coworker who had one, and the machine was nice, but the unbelievable size & weight of the laptop's power supply was truly laughable.

>Can you explain why you care if other people discuss a topic you don't think is "worthy" of discussion?

I thought there might be a piece to this story that I was missing. I gained a lot of value from the replies to my question (esp. the conversation spawned from @snowwrestler's comment.)

>You know you can ignore the story and look at the entire rest of the front page, right?

You didn't really need this in your comment. It was a bit of snark that devalued your otherwise justified response.

Can someone explain why this is a topic worthy of discussion? I get that they had a SEO tactic, Google penalized them, they offered an empty apology for it, and now we're up to the present.

Stating the obvious of "traffic drops when Google penalizes you" seems like a "sun rose again today"-type story.

Even though many of the Vagrant-purists and PHP-haters mock it, I am very happy that PuPHPet exists. It is hands-down the best way to show "I only do LAMP" developers what their world can be. And I appreciate any mechanism that is a gateway to something better - Linux got more users from distro-on-a-cd than "how to compile a kernel" books;-)

Anyone have a good understanding of the difference between this and http://www.dotnetdotcom.org/? I've seen Dotbot in my access logs more than CommonCrawl, so I'm more inclined to believe they have a wider - but not deeper - spread.

In Minnesota, I'm having more merchants threaten to take my card for just saying that. Visa seems to say you should write "See ID" and also sign it: http://usa.visa.com/merchants/risk_management/card_present.h...

The best thing about this article is it demonstrates the problem with pg's "The submission must match the title" policy.

I feel like "If you're not interested in moving to Seattle, don't waste your time here" would be a nice header at the top of the pages...

Because its too easy to not use it. HTTPS has widespread adoption because end-users don't need to supply any cognitive resources to make the leap - until PGP occurs with the same simplicity it'll never see adoption amongst the commoners.

One of the biggest lessons that any Adobe developer will tell you is "we're proud of the code and that it hasn't needed a rewrite - but if we were doing it from scratch we'd do it way different."

A great read on that conversation is http://blogs.adobe.com/jnack/2009/05/some_thoughts_about_the.... But I doubt anything insightful will come out of this leak along the same veins as we leaned when HL2 leaked.

The conversation at https://www.bountysource.com/fundraisers/489-rvm-2-0 has a lot more meaning to it, primarily why RVM vs. rbenv vs. chruby all deserve to exist.

As for me and mine, I'm in the land of docker now...

Where do you get that information from? The only F5 information that I can find is http://abetteruserexperience.com/2013/08/get-a-sneak-peek-of..., and the changes fall into the camp of "things I don't need to hold my breath for."

4.3 introduced a M, for what its worth (http://foundation.zurb.com/docs/changelog.html)

Except the land of getting AngularJS & Foundation to play nicely is full of unresolved landmines (e.g. http://coder1.com/articles/foundation-4-angularjs)

That's a rather bold statement to make. Windows users, for instance, see a tremendous speed bump in going to 5.5 (http://blog.syntaxc4.net/post/2013/06/20/php-5-5-0-for-windo...).

Obviously going the "there is/isn't performance gains" flamewar route alone is a conversation nobody would win. So I would through this out there: If you have the capability to move to PHP 5.5, because there aren't performance penalties, you should - if for no other reason than it'll help you stay ahead of the PHP EOL sythe.

This is one reason that I've been very excited/anxious for http://trackjs.com/ to launch.

Is there a place I can log my vote for the next blessed client to be for Node.js? The existing offerings are nice, but I'd prefer one written by the big dogs.

The discussion you're probably looking for is at http://www.quora.com/Netflix/Whats-it-like-to-work-at-Netfli...

If you need anyone to help be your test-dummy for multiroom support, I'd be happy to help. Up until last week I was just going to buy 4 20w-amps & 4 Pis to power my 4 rooms, but I recently got ambitious and want to see if I can have just 1 Pi rule them all...

A big thank-you to the HN mods for not rewriting this posts headline to match the article's. Although "UK asked N.Y. Times to destroy Snowden material" matches the main focus of the article, the part involve TrueCrypt is what makes it applicable to the HN audience.

So a big round of applause for not clobbering this article's rewritten headline - you're all called out far too often for doing negative work and deserve acknowledgement for doing good;-)

I still stand by my offer to make a Hacker News API that retains the original post title: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=5653878

I imagine that it'll be something involving browser-JS-baked PGP and an optional client-side driven indexing service (like a Sphinx search agent running in the task bar.) It'll weave in some sort of "Hey, you're emailing a service provider that doesn't support PGP enforcement - supply recipients public key, send unsecured message, or ask them to switch to MegaMail?"

TrackIF - Minneapolis, MN - https://trackif.com/pages/careers - Looking for a senior (i.e. team lead) developer!

We recently finished a $1M seed round (http://www.crunchbase.com/company/trackif) and are looking for a great Ruby or a great Node.JS developer to come join our team. We've got a physical office by the Ridgedale mall, and are thinking about getting space at Coco uptown. You'll have a chance to work with many of Minnesota's top business advisors, as well as play a crucial role in the future of our service.

Interested or questions? Email me at eric@trackif.com. I'll drive to wherever you are, we'll have coffee and geek out :-)

The problem I've always had with this is that DNS root levels (., no www) can't be a CNAME - unless there are any DNS gurus in the audience that can point to some alternate configuration I've overlooked.

Someone on your IP is hitting Google enough that Google's temporarily banning your IP.

Take your laptop to your neighborhood coffee shop as a proof of concept.

I recently tried out the instructions at http://robknight.org.uk/blog/2013/05/drupal-on-docker/ (70% intro to Docker, 30% PHP+Apache), and I think it put me on the right track. I still have a long ways to go (like getting PHP-FPM working in this environment) but Rome wasn't built in a day...
