Being a compiled language isn't sufficient to prevent "no method" errors. It's completely possible for a compiled language to define methods at runtime or use duck typing.
This was interesting, thank you.

I'm not sure how to only send the good ones, and that would depend on the recipient's tastes as well. Part of the idea is to try new things, so it seems unavoidable that as I go through all the varieties out there, people will not like some of them.

Some people don't like gummy candy, some really do. Some people are really into "construction kit" type candy, some hate the effort involved and so on.

Perhaps there could be a way to make the subscribers feel like they didn't lose out even if they got something they really hated, but not sure how that would work exactly.
I use Google Apps for internal email. We use the Postini add on for archiving and spam filtering. I'm very happy with this set up.

For sending newsletters, I use Constant Contact. I previously used Campaign Monitor their per-email pricing model became far too expensive over time. Campaign Monitor's service really was excellent and I think I'll switch back to them now that their pricing has changed. (Wrote a blog post about the pricing policies of these services http://www.smithshop.com/price-convergence-and-mailing-list-...).

For our transactional emails, we use PostmarkApp. Delivery wise--they are fine. Their admin interface leaves much to be desired. Searching old emails usually causes an application error. This bug (in a common functional area) has been happening for the whole time (1+ year) I've been using the service. Hopefully they'll spend some time and polish up the app a bit. I initially chose them over SendGrid because their pricing was better (at our levels) but I may switch over in the future.

I've definitely chosen the SaaS/managed solutions over the 'roll-your-own' own email server. There are just too many (different kinds of) headaches involved with each of these not to outsource.

The checklist on the packing slip seems to indicate that I need to do something for each item: http://i.imgur.com/yyJXf.png

The first item is "ALL items are covered with the correct FBA stickers". So actually that is not necessary, and if I just buy a huge pack of candies and ship it to you with only this single packing slip on the big box containing many candies, then you can still sort things out?
The only complication is the fact that they use client side SSL certificates for authentication. I don't know of any other site which does this. Although I like that they're dog fooding, it probably would have been better if they'd stuck with a traditional username/password/cookie scheme for logging in, from a business/usability perspective.

The SSL certificate for https://grepular.com/ is from StartSSL. I renewed it 5 days ago. The CN is for "secure.grepular.com" (for historical reasons), with a subjectAltName of "grepular.com"

I'd like to create a wild card certificate, but that costs money. My understanding is that it is a one off fee (60USD) for them to validate your identity and that it doesn't cost money to renew after that point. I could be wrong though. It's not completely clear.
It is fair, it is a first step in that direction :-)

That corrector has no context though, so it will not correct misspelled words that happen to come out as other words (incl. the "Their coming too sea if its reel.").

This is especially important on the web, where pretty much every conceivable word is "correct" (a name of a company or otherwise). False positives are costly, and context disambiguation critical. Let the fun begin.

I would love to use Heroku/PaaS the one thing holding me back is my service needs a proper file system with a highly customised server for the compilation of LaTeX documents (https://www.sharelatex.com). I would also prefer to use an Linode server but because I rely heavily on s3 and the aws based MongoLab I am using an ec2 for the moment.

If the service gets bigger I am planning on leaving the LaTeX compiling on the ec2 and moving everything else into Heroku, but thats a big if.

One thing I would say to other small timers like me who can't use a PaaS for some reason, automate your deploys as much as possible, capistrano is a good start https://github.com/capistrano/capistrano/wiki . Also look through the list of Heroku addons for other services to make life easier, I use MongoLab and Loggly for starters.

No, those clearly refer to the mean not the median. People do not ask the question "Given the range of heights in the population, what is the middle value", they want to know the mean height of the population.

This is especially easy to see when people talk about "average income", since it's clearly skewed by there being a long tail on the high-income side which pushes up the average salary. There's a reason why income is generally bracketed instead, and split into quintiles.

I'd agree that the US's claim to a stake in the NatWest Three case is probably more legitimate. Of course, TVShack had a lot of commercial activity with US advertisers, but doesn't seem like it would be difficult to establish this in a UK court.

The forum clause, which was passed by both Houses, would require such a stake, but it hasn't been implemented by either the last government or the current one, apparently because it breaks the treaty we signed with the US which led to the act in the first place. A shame, because it looks eminently sensible to me: http://www.legislation.gov.uk/ukpga/2003/41/section/83A

I think it's somewhat unfortunate. IANAL, but I think he can be extradited because the judge thinks an offense has occurred even though the CPS has decided not to prosecute (it's what he seems to be saying here: 'Parliament has made conduct found to be contrary to S.107 (2A) criminal. No court can change the statutory offence').

Unfortunately, there's no clause in the Extradition Act in power at the moment which allows a public interest defense, so it's not the job of the judge to decide such an issue. The forum clause (linked to a bit further down) would change this.

You'd need to clean them constantly.

I use Postmark for any kind of transactional email in production, since I can't use them for mailing lists, I use Mailchimp. I recently tried Amazon SES which is still in beta, but it's very easy to use and cheap. But I can't compair it at all with Postmark. The kind of support I get from those guys over at Wildbit is great, something you will probably never experience on AWS. It is definitely a time sink to setup and manage all the right requirements for an almost perfect email solution. I just directly save all those hours and headaches and delegate that to the guys who know about that and do it right.
First of all, the stuff you are not inventing NOT always should be in the library. sometimes the best a library can do is to have a generator, let people run it and modify the resulting code.

> I haven't used Rails in a while, but last time I used it, the "boilerplate" in the newly created project was something like 20 lines, not 1000. But I object to that, too.

"config" directory alone in the newly generated Rails project is 330 lines.
and another 60 in "app", 25 in "test". Those are mostly comments and configuration variables, but thats the whole idea.

> If you need 1000 lines of text to have a ready-to-go software project, your development tools suck.

you completely missed the point.

The reason I'm looking for the boilerplate is because the library "sucks", not the tools.

expressjs doesn't provide me with what I need. had express js generated a full featured project for me ready to customize like rails does, I wouldn't be looking at boilerplates.

Where am I supposed to put my models? I'll go with app/models but thats ONLY because I've used such layout with Rails. I'm sure a lot of express developers are "sticking" their models somewhere else.

With express you need to decide where to put every single thing you need in your project instead of just 'lets use the standard layout which is ok for like 99.99% of all apps'

In case of rails I get (out of the box):

- standard layout for files, e.g. where to put models, controllers, helpers, views, external libraries, test files etc. The directories are already added to the load path etc. I don't need to do shit. just write my code.

- standard initialization sequence, nicely separated into boot.rb, application.rb, environment.rb, a file for every config environment, a directory of initializers and configs for various parts of the stack. (in the latest version the whole setup greatly simplified, but the idea still holds)
- standard "example" testing framework.
- standard Rakefile with a bunch of tasks
- standard way to localize

Some of those files you rarely need to change, but they still do not belong in the library.

if I go with the 'default' ORM I need to only put user/password into config/database.yml (and not even that since my mysql's root has empty password locally) and I'm ready to go.

With express I get almost none of this stuff.
Well, the generated app.js certainly does some of the things but it does it in a kind of 'split it up as you wish into logical files' kind of way. i.e. for any non-trivial production application app.js will be split into files and it will probably be in a non-standard-just-invented-here kind of way.

I'm pretty sure if you look at currently running production express.js applications you will see much more wheel reinvention with how to configure/start/layout the app then you will find in any Rails project.

So until the standard generator will do this people will keep looking for boilerplates.
Hmm, would the accelerometer really detect anything? I think the bullet would have to experience significant lift, otherwise it's in free fall and the only acceleration you'll see after it leaves the barrel is air resistance, which isn't in the right direction to change with each rotation. To a first approximation, spinning bullets don't experience lift.

Maybe there's still some minuscule effect that can be detected, though. The sections on Magnus force in http://www.nennstiel-ruprecht.de/bullfly/index.htm seem to suggest that this is the case. But now I'm not so sure it's as simple as counting the number of periods of oscillation from the accelerometer.

The problem with doing one of these (as with all of the ones above) is that you have a serious principal-agent problem on the buy side.

The people using your products (doctors) aren't necessarily the ones making the purchasing decisions, and in such situations you won't always win by providing the best product.

This is why EHR systems especially have a lot of fine grained reporting systems that let administrators spy on just about everything going on (they love this) and huge sales teams with budgets to lavish potential buyers with champagne and horrific user interfaces for doctors.
And it's inaccessible (like CAPTCHA). And will probably harm usability too.
Technically true; however, in practice, you must rifle the barrel of any grenade launcher, or else have tail fins on the grenades to prevent aerodynamic tumbling. Tank guns, cannons, howitzers, and the like typically have rifled barrels but we don't call them rifles. (Mortars, on the other hand, use finned ordnance.) AFAIK rifles are usually defined to have a caliber at most 20mm.
I use good old sendmail for SMTP and cyrus for IMAP. I don't think SMTP has to have "5 nines" uptime because SMTP is very resilient to machines being offline due to the default delivery timeouts being very long (4 or more days).

My approach to email is that I know that it will take an entire day to set it up no matter how simple it seems. There's nothing like configuring an SMTP server that makes you think, "wow, email is surprisingly complicated!"

But! Once it's set up I find it's one of the more stable services I run. Very little hand-holding is needed once it's up and running.

Cyrus is a little harder (mostly because you have to deal with SASL--yet another layer of authentication). But it runs fast and smoothly. I found that upgrading between major versions can be a large hassle (I had to do manual database conversions). Luckily it's so stable that there hasn't been a new major version in a number of years.

For mailing lists I use mailman (though honestly I haven't run a mailing list in about 10 years so there may be better alternatives now).

For email automation I usually just use a pipe-style alias in /etc/aliases.

It's not really grammatically sound, but rather a result of shortening the phrase/sentence while still making sense.
I wonder if it worked to offer customers a monthly fee of $100 and give them $5 back each time they come to the gym. Going seven times a month would make it cheaper than a $70 monthly flat fee, yet very few people would probably still get there more than ten times a month.
especially since it looked like a vector (rather than raster) display. so how did it work?

[edit: yup, vector - https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vector_graphics#Applications]

i guess when they used the device they must trigger some kind of raster scan. that would explain why they had to hold it in place.

Well, but the author is talking about that problem! Even if you don't consider that real spell-checking, his point still stands. Let's define crappy-spell-checking as "looking up individual words in some predefined dictionary"; that problem used to be hard and now it's very easy, as in, you could write one in 15 minutes using Python.
