Hey jrsmith1279, thanks for your comment on Flaregun. It's great to get real feedback and validation.

Both your feature requests becomes important when you have hundreds of domains managed by Flaregun. I think being able to assign domains to clients is a really key feature going forward. I have added both to my todo list.

Give me a shout if you want to talk through anything else or run into any problems. I am really keen to open up a dialogue with my early adopters to help shape the product.
Many will notice if a shortened url goes to another shortener and give a 'security notice'.
I don't think any modern browsers will redirect indefinitely.
Additionally, good parents engage by example. I can't tell you the number of times people have asked how my daughter was able to do <awesome scientific achievement>.

Somehow, she managed even with the existence of and playing of (gasp) video games! And with such shitty parents that didn't have a well-meaning bureaucrat telling us what to do.

THE HORROR.
I can understand why some parents are outraged about this. Despite my parents' best efforts, I managed to watch Terminator with some friends at a sleepover. That's why I grew up to be a homicidal cyborg.

I too think that the metaphor sucks, not because one would be worse than the other, but because I don't think they can be compared. One is mostly physical, partially emotional intrusion, the other is intellectual... They are both about the most shitty things that can happen. You can only hope that the drugs are powerful enough that you don't really remember what happened.
thanks for the suggestions. Your site has a clean design. Looks like a cool idea for tracking tech skills - I will take a closer look. Thanks!

More work always needs to be done, but you might be getting a skewed view of things by looking at problem articles. What happens if you pick a random sample of articles weighted by how many page views they get? That's closer to what the average reader sees.

It is the most painful thing to watch your child make a mistake. But to help them learn from it and avoid it in the future is worth it.

It is even better when they don't make mistakes. Sadly, kids are small versions of their parents.

All other browsers, to the best of my knowledge, have similar systems built in. So your premise is flawed: you can't have an "infinite redirect."
So this targets an earlier version of Python?

What a misleading example. That's not GNU hello world, that's Linux hello world. The difference: it does not use GNU libc nor any other parts of GNU project -- except for the `unistd.h' -- but instead interfaces with the kernel directly.

Another matter is that it's not a C program, as it doesn't have int main(...) :P

How do you define "online service creation"? Does my personal blog qualify? What about the period of time where I didn't serve anything to the web but was using my server to run a personal email & jabber server? What about the time where I didn't even do that and was using my server as a remote shell for me and a couple friends? What about when I was running it just for me?

Should it matter that nobody else should have any interest in masterzora.net since I've (almost; there are a couple silly outliers) uniquely held that handle for over a decade?

> video game violence develop a shitty moral compass.

You know, I think it depends on the message, not the medium. Books as a whole are an unreliable source of training, but there are some that we take seriously. I think great literature is better training than experience, as it reflects great insight.

You could say the same thing about movies, to a lesser degree. Some are 007, and some are Shawshank Redemption. I've heard of college level ethics courses being taught by watching and discussing heavy movies, and I don't think that's inappropriate.

Gaming as a genre is pretty young; it's only just beginning to cross the threshold of serious art. I think it has the potential to be serious literature as well; the single player mode of Starcraft 2, for example, struck me as though it was attempting to actually grapple with serious issues related to warfare -- and unique to games, it did so by asking the player to make serious choices. I won't say it crossed the threshold of great literature, but I will say it was heading that way.
Condensing constitutional law to the question of "legislating morality" is an incredible oversimplification. Of course the government legislates morality. That's why it's illegal to kill someone, make CP, and put certain context in broadcast media. The government is concerned with more than simply reducing social harm, which is often trumpeted as the opposite role of government instead of "legislating morality."

The real question is, can the government legislate this morality? How much protection is the legislated-upon action given by the Constitution, and how restrictive is that actual legislation?

I don't think the moral judgement is always so easy to find, though. Look at the second amendment, for example:

A well regulated Militia, being necessary to the security of a free State, the right of the people to keep and bear Arms, shall not be infringed.

It should be pretty clear to any strict constitutionalist that what's being laid out there is not a moral, inherent right to carry arms but a means to an end. Yes, there is a moral judgement in that it's worth doing things to preserve a free state, but it's several times removed from the actual question being addressed.
If it's something that you're spending your free time on, make sure it's something that you want to do. If you think you can make your product better, or even just simpler, I would keep ploddign along. If the other one is the one that you would rather use, then find something new.

Indeed there are. How about we have a separate namespace for commercial stuff then, where these applies, and a separate namespace for non-profitable sites? We could use, say, ".com" to designate the commercial namespace, and something else for the others.

One rule of thumb I read here ( http://www.forentrepreneurs.com/startup-killer/ ) is that CAC should be recoverable within 12 months of use, regardless of LTV.

Do you think that's appropriate, or it needs to be even faster?

"This preference affects only HTTP redirects, not redirects with HTML meta tags or JavaScript." So if the shorteners use (or can be configured to use) different redirect methods, it might be possible to get around this limit.

However, you'd have to create a chain composed of shorteners each of which either doesn't recognize the next one on the list, or doesn't do any "security" checking at all.
SVG is hardware accelerated in IE9 and coming to Chrome as well. When that happens I doubt there will be much of a difference performance wise. Canvas and SVG will serve different ends. Doing something like GUI in Canvas would be an incredible pain, whereas doing it in SVG (using raphael.js) is a breeze. Canvas is better for games.

So no matter how many tasks I create as soon as I commit all of them are going to be marked as completed?

If that's the case, It's not for me.

I want to create a bunch of tasks and then complete the one's I like in a commit.
As a counterpoint, on my site (Obsidian Portal), support is a big drain (both timewise and mentally). Further, it has little to do with paid vs free (we're freemium). Both groups demand support, and the freebies are often the most angry.

For example, every day I'm dealing with someone who is convinced that the login system is broken. It's always user error, but it requires input from me pretty much every time, to the point of "here is a new temporary password. i've tested it and it works. please copy and paste it in"

Yes, we have an automated "forgot password" feature, but no matter how much automation you add there will always be people who avoid all that and demand personal attention.

Initially, movies were not protected by U.S. free speech laws, but they've (generally) been protected since the 1950s[1]. So today's opinion may not change things meaningfully (I haven't read it yet).

There is likely good business incentive to keep the policy. If parents can be confident their children will be barred from movies they'd want to forbid, they'll be more likely to send them to the theater, give them cash to see movies, etc. The MPAA probably gathers enough data & does enough market research to have some sense of whether or not this outweighs the increased revenue from teenagers seeing more adult fare.

You don't need any specific software to be able to use two-factor authentication, it works nicely for me in any Linux distro I've tried and also Windows Mobile 6.1 (yes I know)

The software might make it easier than receiving an sms which needs typing in, but all your mobile applications can still use the system - you just generate a new pasword for each application (as you would for a Google Talk client on your desktop).

My laptop has encrypted hard disks so is set to remember Google passwords for 30 days. I can login from other devices using my pasword and an sms validation code which expires as soon as I log out.

Tigger will mark as completed any task that it finds in your commit message. So if you have a task called "fix homepage" and your commit message contains the string "fix homepage" then Tigger will mark the "fix homepage" task as completed. Hope that clears things up

Where did you see that? He put the title of the task in the commit and it marked that task as complete.
Well this is taking a sharp turn into the legal and philosophical - both arenas in which my knowledge is woefully inadequate - but as I understand it, laws against killing people have nothing to do with morality. You can't kill a person (or make CP) because it infringes upon a certain set of "natural rights" which are supposed to be universal and self evident. There isn't a moral judgement involved. You are committing an criminal act by depriving the murdered/exploited person of their rights regardless of any moral context.

Now theoretically you could go a layer deeper and suppose that those natural rights are themselves based on a certain group or culture's morality judgement, although that would be contradictory to their essence as "natural"
EFF Releases 'Know Your Digital Rights' Guide to Your Constitutional Liberties
Paper.js - Open Source Vector Graphics Scripting Framework
Last fall I did my uni moot court competition, and the case was a (simplified) version of this.

What the case came down to was whether violence can be treated the same way as sex. Ginsberg v. NY, a case from the 60s, gave an exception to the normal obscenity test--media could be regulated if it depicted sex and was sold to minors. Ginsberg v. NY, however, didn't touch on violence, and the issue was whether Ginsberg v. NY is content-specific, and only limited to sex, or whether the fact that that decision hinges upon harm done to youth means that other media that harm youth, ie, through exposure to violence, can be included in the exception. And, as you guys may guess, the trouble comes from the fact that damage can't really be shown.

That being said, if it was ruled Constitutional, I wouldn't have a problem with this law. Community values should reinforce parental values. There is a reach to what parents can do and control, everyone knows that.
Don't forget SMIL.
Need a UI/UX designer/front-end developer contrator immediately
We, a Petaluma enterprise SaaS for the wine industry, are looking for a UI/UX designer who has immediate availability. Our current partner has put us in a pretty bad place just prior to our beta launch. Our app. is built in RoR, so it would be great if you know RoR well. But more important is that you know current HTML/CSS standards and are very familiar with the ins and outs of JQuery.
We're looking for someone who can start immediately and has a fair amount of bandwidth. If this short project goes well, there is the opportunity for a lot more work. If you're interested, please contact me ASAP with your hourly rate, availability, and online samples of your work.

Best,

On the matter of paying a little extra for better service shouldn't we consider the option of "tipping" our flight attendants then?

I know this won't fly in general, especially outside the US where tipping is not nearly as customary, but this has been a method to offset low paying jobs where service level influences our overall spending.

I don't know what the lifestyle of a flight attendant is, but if the advancement of flight has reduced their positions to that of a McD's manager, blame us, the general public, because we've forced Airlines to optimize for scale transport.

As for Pilots...it gets tricky because they are very much vital. The seniority crap sucks but is understandable in a job market with a very finite requirement of personnel. To be a Senior Captain with a large carrier, like Singapore Airlines, means you'd be in the 200k+ salary club.

The number of short-hop vs long-leg flights is probably indicative of why there are so many junior level pilots paid less than senior level pilots paid more.

Furthermore, I'd say aircraft like the Airbus 380 compounds this problem by basically forcing a hub and spoke model where the large "carrier" aircraft can only be manned by senior pilots. If we had more direct-direct flights it would open up room for many semi-senior pilots and potentially distribute wages better.
Maybe they don't? Not that I know the details of their business, but I know I was shocked when I first learned how few companies actually make money. :)
I agree with you more than most people in this thread. It's easy to turn our noses at "community values," but their absence, I think, can explain a lot of problems in this country.
The purpose of "leadership" at the most basic level is simply social engineering.

Combine that with the coercion of government and you have a strong attraction for such "leaders".
I'm beginning to wonder if there is a nutritional or metabolic difference between eating a refined cereal ("Corn Flakes", "Special K") vs eating a cereal with "sugar" added ("Fruit Loops", "Captain Crunch")

Once it hits your digestive system and the respective enzymes (starting in your mouth), they all start to break down to monosaccharides pretty quickly. The problem with these refined carbs is they (A) Don't come along with a lot of the nutrients you would find in leafy greens, natural cereals, and (B) They are frequently missing a lot of fiber which means they all basically get digested and hit your bloodstream.

I'd love to see a comparative study on the relative difference (or lack thereof) between (A) Refined Cereal with Sugar. (B) Refined Cereal zero Sugar (C) White toast.

My sense is your body basically treats them all the same at the end of the day, but I'd still love to see the study.

You're right, but there's a sliding scale of rights, which can't be better demonstrated better than in 1A law. The way that the scale, and many other gray areas of rights, is determined, is greatly influenced by morality.

So when you activate Tigger in a directory that is also a Git repo Tigger automatically adds a file called .tigger to the repo. This file contains all of your tasks. So when you push your repo to Github it also pushes the .tigger file. From there whoever pulls the repo down will also get the task list. Hope that helps.
