icn2··on Parse is shutting down, shall I migrate to another BaaS or Parse OSS offering?
I am not using parse's backend services. I am using its push services. Has anyone had experience with Amazon Simple Notification Service? I am thinking switch to aws sns (https://aws.amazon.com/sns/).

icn2··on Django Awarded MOSS Grant from Mozilla
Could some company support phoenix framework as well? Phoenix's channel feature is already there :)
icn2··on Django 1.7 Released
I haven't followed django for a while. Could someone explain a bit more about django' model association part. Is it currently comparable to rails's model associations? Looking at these two pages http://guides.rubyonrails.org/association_basics.html https://docs.djangoproject.com/en/dev/ref/models/relations/

It seems there are a bit more on rails model associations.

icn2··on Ask HN: Why use Python or similar?
It is not just language. It is the platform behind language. You choose python/ruby your stack probably is opensource/linux stack. If you choose c# you probably is stuck with windows stack, (in which you don't have a lot options like open source stack).
icn2··on Hire this guy for love
I am just curious if he makes $65/hour how come he didn't save up 300 hundred ? It is just 5 hours his time.
icn2··on In Silicon Valley, Partying Like It’s 1999 Again
It looks not like 1999 at all. In 1999 one can easily find a programming job only knowing html. Today It seems that tons of graduates knowing very well Big O complexities, all kinds of cs fundamental algorithms still need to compete for a job.
icn2··on Healthcare.gov technology stack (infographic)
At least they didn't use windows/.net stack this time.
icn2··on Healthcare.gov technology stack (infographic)
For government projects, sometimes they don't want to save money at all. They are more interested in how money can get in someone's pocket.
icn2··on Trial week: Our hiring secret
I love this idea. Hope more and more companies could adapt this way for hiring.
icn2··on New Relic now supports Node.js
Misleading title.It is more about "New Relic now supports Node.js"

I have used virtualbox and vmware player (free for non commercial user ). vmware player gave me much better experience.
icn2··on H1B workers are not indentured servants
Why Australia? Why not simply get back to Canada?
icn2··on $349 Ubuntu Linux Desktop
I love linux and this idea. Could you record video in a better environment?
icn2··on I will not do a tech interview
I like oracle way of hiring. You got a degree from a decent college with decent GPA you are in. Very clear and straight forward. If you got in a decent college and graduated with a decent GPA - you are smart and somewhat hardworking, you should be doing well in your job.
icn2··on Judge to serve 28 years after making $2 million sending children to jail
This is why I always object monetizing public services.
icn2··on Oregon Proposes Investment Model For Student Loans
This is the part I am always confused. If we all know graduates getting an engineering degree(CS,EE) make more money than graduates with english/arts degree. We should see an obvious trend students heading to engineering majors. Why still so many students go to english/arts/... major and they know they will make less promising income?
icn2··on An Open Letter to Craig Newmark
-> "Krrb does not have the right to scrape data from Craigslist, on your say-so." Wrong logic here my friend, it is the user to scrape and repost. Krrb just help user to make the process easier by making the tool
icn2··on An Open Letter to Craig Newmark
Krrb just make a tool for user's convenience. Krrb didn't do any scraping of the content of craigslist. It is user's action/intent to scrape and repost. There is nothing wrong with Krrb just provides a tool for user's convenience
icn2··on Boxee Acquired By Samsung For Around $30M
Seems not a so awesome exit with Launch Date: 2004 and Funding of $26.5M
icn2··on Study: There may not be a shortage of American STEM graduates after all
No shortage of good IT workers as well. My point is it doesn't matter how good local workers are. As far as there are better (their standard) foreign workers they claim there is a shortage because they want top ones.
icn2··on Study: There may not be a shortage of American STEM graduates after all
There is no such a thing shortage of IT workers. These companies (google, facebook…)claim shortage of talents because they always want top ones (at least with the standard they think). As far as there are better quality foreigner workers they always claim shortage.
icn2··on Linode hacked, CCs and passwords leaked
I dropped linode two months ago. Hope they have purged my cc information from their system. Well I logged in just now with old credentials. Cc information is still there, not so good...
icn2··on Shutting down a side project, my experience
Great story. Thanks for sharing. I like the No3. "Working on a problem that people don’t have probably means that people won’t be willing to pay for that product."
icn2··on Ask HN: State of Django vs. Rails?
I have more experiences on django. Recently I looked into ruby on rails and I don't want to look back. * bundle install. In ruby everything is a gem when you deploy to a new machine all you need to do is "bundle install". In django I really don't see a comparable facility. I recall I forgot something until I got an "import module error" * scaffold. ruby on rails scaffold just makes development usper fast. * dev/test/production config. Well it is just very convenient. * db migration. migration make db update/change much easier. Changing db/data schema is so painful in django.
