80 character lines is perfect. Allows me a reasonable number of splits in vim and most importantly makes diffs/code that I get in my email readable.

That being said, as with all things(especially guidelines), apply common sense liberally. Which in Python is one of the guidelines of pep8 on writing readable code.

Big fan of Pinboard.in

Hey, Thanks for the fix. We did something a little different and just moved into into the containing table. Tables for layout yuck, but this is essentially a html email posted on a website.

Yeah, we recieved an email about this, is it just the signup form out of alignment with the list or the entire thing?

for filename, go to the repository (code) window and press 't' , it will give you a command-t type interface to search for filenames in the project.

I don't.

I have a fairly large screen (27inch cinema display) and use Vim. 80 Character lines are perfect. They look nicer, are easy to read (in the same way books are easy to read when lines are not super long) and with vim can accommodate ~4 split windows side by side which is useful.

Hey there, sorry about that. Still a work in progress! I will see if I can get an intermediate page up there instead of redirecting back to the main page.

Thanks for the feedback!

Breaking bad is great. However, The Wire is definitely the best TV show ever.

Really? That's weird. I'm one of the curators and I subscribe to the rss so I can check it. I get every issue as suspected.

I will definately check into this. What newsreader are you using?

Thanks for the feedback. We have been meaning to do something about that for awhile, as well as add an about page and a bunch of other things.

I want to echo the sentiment in my response to agentultra. Thanks!

I'm one of the curators of Pycoders. Thanks so much for the kind words, it's much appreciated!

Thats his tmux Theme(outer) inner is powerline for Vim(https://github.com/Lokaltog/vim-powerline/), with a patched font.

Going to Venture-Lab doesn't tell me anything. I visit the site and there is no indication about what it is, what value it provides or anything like that.Why would anyone go there, and how would anyone know that they should go there?

I don't think 5 minutes on google can solve the problem that Startup Plays is trying to solve, if it could, everyone would be a Startup Superstar.

I can understand your skepticism, but if you knew Scott Annan or any of the team at Startup Plays, I have a very hard time believing your impression that this Startup Plays is an "ill-concieved attempt to cash in on the startup bubble".

Django also allows you to specify project templates https://docs.djangoproject.com/en/dev/ref/django-admin/#star... , very useful.

There is also support for app templates as well if you want to go that far.

Interesting that the title of the blog post is "What you know matters more then what you do". I would say this thesis is incomplete. The author talks about how him and his colleagues were trying to figure out the secret sauce of a high achieving researcher.

FTA:

I hypothesize two things. First, ultra-learning is difficult but it can be cultivated. Second, it might be one of the most important skills for consistently generating impact. Those who are able and willing to continually master hard new knowledge and techniques are playing on a different field than those who are wary of anything that can’t be picked up from a blog post

I would possibly agree with his hypothesis at the end of the post, but not the title. I think its likely that this person is a high achiever not just because he is learning quickly and thoroughly, hard topics. He is also applying the requisite work and determination required to be a success.

So IMO what you do has to be at least as important as the things you know because that is the only way we have in which to judge your success.

Apparently Romania is also popular for Cybercrime, http://www.wired.com/magazine/2011/01/ff_hackerville_romania... , related?

I don't get it. Craigslist is a company, they have been against 3rd parties using their data for years and they have no obligation to share their data with anyone else.

How is this even an article, and why the hell are we reading it?

Why would you install Mercurial with Homebrew, it is a python package. As a rule, I generally install all python packages with pip.

Or he is a Python developer(I know I work with him). Searching the python docs or the Internet for some module is a pretty common use case.

Love pinboard. Has suited me very well for my bookmarking needs.

Don't know what this does, or how useful it would be, but that is a pretty sexy landing page.

Hey, not 100% sure what we are doing about contributors yet, but feel to shoot me an email at myusername@pycoders.com.

I type fairly fast, but I don't touch type. I've been kind of trying to dig up the motivation to learn to touch type because I'm noticing not being a touch typist limits my vim speed(and makes some key combinations awkward).

Lots of good resources in these comments, guess I've got something to work on.

Already there my man :)

There will be samples as soon as the first issue is sent out, in the mean time you will have to trust us!

I think the real value is in the curation, which is something you don't get from google reader.

Essentially, if a list is curated well enough, you know you will be able to find things of value on there and I know for me, not having to rummage through my rss feeder has a lot of value.

Its the same reason why I read hacker news, better curation then my rss reader.

There will be RSS for the issues. That is the first item on the todo list after we get the first issue released.

We will, but there currently is no current issue, first issue is on the 17th.

We expect there to be archives of the individual issues that you can browse before you signup.

some of them are the built in oh-my-zsh things, but I added some of the settings in the posts comments for people who asked.

Is there something particular you are looking for?
