willlll··on MIDI.js - Sequencing in Javascript
Since tim cook removed midi support in mt lion, I've been looking for ways to get the midis that play on my professional homepage to work again. I tried this one and it's cool, but as far as I was able to use it, it was limited to just one instrument.
willlll··on Eliminating Sales Commissions
Why are you posting this message here? This site is not his site. This isn't his email inbox.
willlll··on A ‘frighteningly ambitious’ way to improve email
Where on the queue do auto response messages from other inboxes protected by Frighteningly Ambitious Queue system messages land?
willlll··on Salar.ly - real salary info for tech jobs
Sure, but it's always good to keep in mind that spinning up more dynos if you're already the limits for your database is a bad idea.
willlll··on Deleting someone’s business off Heroku
This is link-bait sensationalism. Aside from the downtime, getting your heroku app recovered from being deleted is not a big deal, assuming you write into support in a reasonable amount of time.
willlll··on Analyzing PostgreSQL Email Archives with PostgreSQL
Tom Lane is amazing, and these graphs makes that fact even more clear.

That isn't irony.

It's for anyone
willlll··on Why Should You Use MySQL?
That's not even a good reason. Pick a better CMS.
willlll··on MySQL - Do Not Pass This Way Again
How could you possibly not get the point? It's the first two (2) sentences "Considering MySQL? Use something else."
willlll··on When is "ACID" ACID? Rarely
It also fails at C for concurrent writes
willlll··on Postgression - A PostgreSQL database for every test case
Have you benchmarked it?

willlll··on Multiple vulnerabilities in parameter parsing in Action Pack
yes
willlll··on Multiple vulnerabilities in parameter parsing in Action Pack
Heroku runs whatever version you say in your Gemfile. You must update your apps yourself; There is nothing Heroku can do to update your app for you.

curl -sn https://api.heroku.com/apps | ruby -r json -e 'JSON.parse(STDIN.read).select{|app| app["stack"] =~ /aspen/}.each{|app| puts app["name"]}'
willlll··on PostgreSQL 9.2 released
\x in psql switches if things are like a table or a list. Before you'd have to run a query and see that you cant read it, then hit \x and then run the query again. Now you can just have it figure out which one to show you based on your terminal size
willlll··on Why Postgres
Sure but combined with plv8 you trivially can have indexes on the json
willlll··on Why Postgres
My favorite thing to do with recursive WITH is the mandelbrot set. I used that one as an example on http://embedclip.herokuapp.com/

I'm glad you were able to find a good solution.
willlll··on Why Ratings Systems Don't Work
That is because xckd is the same 3 jokes repeated over and over.
willlll··on Heroku announces support for 17 new Postgres extensions
My favorite is fuzzystrmatch. It gives you the soundex function which lets you match things that kinda-sorta-sound-the-same. Example: https://postgres.heroku.com/dataclips/inpkhuzaczuwoppmudbles...
