So you are saying if I show up in a coffee place with a bulky black laptop running a cheap imitation of OSX people will think this is cool?

Elementary will never be cool, in fact you will be "bullied" by both cool kids with expensive (good looking!) OSX MBP and geeks running some obscure Linux distro on a Thinkpad.

What is supposed to happen after you click on Mega Hot a bunch of times? Is something supposed to happen?

you got a few missing images on that page (testimonials section)

would something like jekyll + git and some extra export script work?

I don't mean to be offesive here, but did look at how their laptops look like?

Brew works great most of the times and it is indeed very human friendly. The problem sometimes arises when you need to install something a little bit more exotic than usual (eg. graph-tool was my last case) in that case lot of things can go wrong.

Well if all the seniors at your text/telco company agree with that it must be true!

manually editing our /etc/hosts files nice! poor man DNS solution

needless to say https://status.aws.amazon.com/ is all green :(

nice that they replied to you. Still waiting to see a reply from them...

Ancient Rome, home of 20% world's population, is going to be hard to beat, but yes NYC is pretty cool too :)

I am very surprised this is not getting that much attention on national news.

I did, as far as I remember these book are all about USSR ;)

why?

Include all website that use Github to sign-in or sign-up

Github does not work for 100% the time

I agree, I find doing this with DRF very easy and had the opposite with TastyPie doing stuff I did not want or need. Having some ORM integration is nice; there are a number of situations where it's easy to use your ORM safely and get stuff done very quickly (eg. basic CRUD stuff for instance)

care to explain?

Did not use Tastypie since a couple years ago and I remember it being very hard to use due to be so heavily coupled to Django models. I find DRF support for Django ORM and yet the ease of use when not doing ORM stuff one the main selling points.

I can only say nice things about Django REST framework, super simple to use and comes with lot of extras. Very interesting the shift towards schemas and RAML; I am quite curious to see how usable that is.

That worked really well for them! They obviously stored data in Firebase that did not belong in there. I have nothing against Firebase, but it's not meant to store all your app's data!

Why would you use Firebase as main database for your data? That decision alone is extremely silly!

"The deal fits into Tesla Chief Executive Officer Elon Musk's long-term vision of transforming Tesla from an an electric car company to a clean-energy company. That's the same motivation behind his pending deal to acquire SolarCity Corp., the rooftop solar company founded by his cousins, of which he is also chairman and the largest shareholder."

Yeah man, what a lucky coincidence your cousin can help you saving the planet!

Luckily for us their life span (at least for octopus) is really short :)

We evaluated InfluxDB 6 months ago and did not move forward because cluster mode was still in beta. Is there anyone running a cluster in production with some decent traffic?

I appreciate the effort and enjoyed this paper. One small remark: the first example is ridiculous. You don't need such a low level tool to find out someone is doing crazy database queries, just analyze your slow log!

Remote work is plan B. I don't do it unless I really have to. The reason is pretty simple, it sucks most of the times and is sub-optimal for most of the other case.

Reminds me of how many time I went crazy trying to close a telnet session on memcached ("Escape character is '^]'.") :)
