good work, Meteor is the fastest framework to get things done for sure if your familiar with it

came across this newsletter which sends out daily articles that are pretty long dealing with this issue

Ember was heavily influenced by Sproutcore

Surprised the knock is bad documentation (The site is awful), but I have heard that Angular has a lot better documentation then Ember currently does

found this

"Hello All,

I work for CloudAtCost.com The business model was carefully thought out to figure the only way we felt possible to provide a one time fee for a hosted server. You can look us up - check out what we have done with freephoneline.ca - There was a post on RedFlagDeals for 5000 beta accounts in 2007, and thats how we launched.

Freephoneline.ca sold/sells $50 one time phone lines, started in 2007 and still offering the same great service. (profitably) Actually some of Freephoneline's work has got us where we are today.

One of the philosophies we have is to own and pay for the network, remove any recurring fees by renting other peoples stuff. This leaves little recurring cost - which translates to savings. Deliver strong value and savings for Canadian consumers, in doing so - some of them decide to buy other things from us and be life-long customers.

How can a server be free? / or of little one time cost, I will share how it is done.

First buy 100's (or 1000's) of physical servers with piles of CPU cores, mountains of ram, for the best deal possible, and pay cash. We owe nothing on the gear, it's not leased. They are all on the rack, so if they are sold now - or not sold they cost about the same monthly overhead to us. Specifically we have 40,000 VPS's worth of equipment on the rack (so far).

Next, build a very efficient, and redundant storage infrastructure, use SSDs to make people happy - do not use expensive name brand storage solutions (or you are dead in the water and out of business.) Use something groovy, say one of the network file systems from the OpenStack project. Something that scales endlessly.

Then buy or build some of your own data centres, ( www.rackanddata.com + www.data-vault.ca + Fibernetics.ca ) Cost advantage - we don't have to pay $600 /$900 / $1200 per rack. (actually we don't charge ourselves anything for space, we use some of the empty racks - so its $0/mo )

Then build 30,000 Sq/Ft of solar on your roof so you can produce 4 x the electricity you use - to sell to the grid (and be green).

Then Build a national network with 100's of thousands of Canadians who use and rely on it daily (Fibernetics.ca + Worldline.ca) One of Canada's largest private CLEC's The idea here is the access to bandwidth at this volume, is really quite in-expensive and sort of already paid for.

Then, we consider a small % of the people find out who we are and buy internet from us for their homes and office, or maybe even buy an office phone system. (actually we sold $200K worth of phone systems this month from people using our cloud.) ... this good will we built is worth more then just about any regular fee per month.

Summary; - colocation space, free - bandwidth, almost free - server hardware, far less then the $35 - maybe even under $10 ;-) - power - hedged, - profit margin on the servers, we invest it, in infrastructure - usually in things that have a +30% return - so in effect we make our own recurring income on the server - to build a better company, which in turn offers better deals. - goodwill to customers - just like master card, Priceless.

It's so good, we were just going to offer them free... but we knew no one would believe it.

Cheers,"

there is 8 pages talking about it here but the forum is down so I can't see what the conclusion they came to was, only the first page

http://webcache.googleusercontent.com/search?q=cache:GOrNxy8...

"However, one optimization that can be made for some browsers is OCSP stapling: the server can include (staple) the OCSP response from the CA to its certificate chain, allowing the browser to skip the online check. Moving the OCSP fetch to the server allows the server to cache the signed OCSP response and save the extra request for many clients. However, there are also a few things to watch out for:

OCSP responses can vary from 400 to 4,000 bytes in size. Stapling this response to your certificate chain may once again overflow your TCP congestion window—pay close attention to the total size.

Only one OCSP response can be included, which may still mean that the browser will have to issue an OCSP request for other intermediate certificates, if it has not been cached already."

unbelievable Banksys best piece of work yet

to be fair, you can listen to the whole song on Bandcamp before buying compared to 90 seconds on iTunes

it will look better on a resume for jobs/further internships down the road though which is just as important anyway

that's pretty common, HN threads usually get more comments then on the actual site, comments on actual sites usually don't do that good at all

it's because your getting a full mongo database installed and configured with it

cool tool but one of the advantages of using Safari is seamless integration between my iPhone and Safari Bookmarks

really it seems like other people argue the other way, I only know Angular and prefer it over Ember but I have legit heard that same argument coming from Ember "Gurus"

I didn't find it too hard to learn but there is like 10x way to do the same thing, finding best practices, best library's, etc. is more time consuming

yeah but for each category there is already hundreds of libraries with new ones popping up every week, it would be a massive time consuming effort to just analyze one category and keep up with any recent developments in it, times that by say 20 categories and your looking at 100's of hours of effort

sure I live in the US and most of my college classes are based around Java but there is plenty of options to pick from including Visual Basic for an intro course, not saying that's the right option (it's not) but at the end of the day, it is the teachers preference and what they feel comfortable in, the person criticizing VB doesn't even have the merit to do so it seems

not sure why your criticizing Visual Basic, it is a good language for Intro HS courses

interesting never seen http://www.snptz.com/ before, did it work pretty good?

Google has their own similar internal software called Snippets that instead of nightly sends out an email once a week, collects responses and sends out a digest along with a web app interface

explanation of software:

http://tech.pro/blog/1490/how-it-works-google-s-snippets

some former google engineer rolled out an open source version of the software that with some factoring, nightly cron jobs instead of weekly and potentially a cleaner user interface for the web app could prolly fit your needs

great tutorial for anyone looking to get into the MEAN stack, easily the best on the net currently and they seem like there planning on adding a lot more to it also over time

The entire VA (VistA) and the DOD (AHLTA, CHCS) systems are still implemented in Mumps and will be for the foreseeable future, far from a dead language

I know that I was wondering if there was some type of Cache ObjectScript port to GT.M like something called GT.M ObjectScript, etc.

what type of job do you have? something in the medical field?

is it possible to use Cache ObjectScript on GTM?

your right, they should prolly focus more on commenting there stuff then making an example in every obscure framework possible
