What you want is zmusic:app with the -w switch.

-w zmusic:app --socket /tmp/uwsgi-zmusic.sock --chmod-socket=660

Using --chdir to change to the backend/ directory may be useful as well.

I've just updated the README with these instructions.

I've also added a section on using uwsgi in standalone mode, as the built-in debugging server can't handle concurrent requests.
Chrome uses WebKit...
They don't decrypt HTTPS. The NokiaBrowser (former OviBrowser) is a "proxy browser", a different application that talks to Nokia servers and these servers than establish a regular HTTPS connection. The same as Opera Mini. There is one more layer of abstraction.

Do you trust your phone operating system? How do you know it is not capturing your data when you access a bank website? Same issue here.

The one difference is that the Nokia servers might be a bigger target for hacking, instead of hacking individual phones.
I'm using Heroku free plan.
Looks like I'll stick to stock (AOSP) browser then. I'm not going to call the Galaxy Nexus a resource-constrained device but putting Chrome on it sure makes it feel like one, and I like my device as snappy as they come.
I do too. It's a fantastic book but much too expensive for what amount of actual information is in it. The photos are extraordinary, but you don't need that book to learn how to cook or for any specific recipe.

As for a general book about cooking, the best value is "On food and cooking" by Harold McGee. It's about $25 and it's comprehensive and well-written.
I think that in 2013 is more important how you build it than what you build. The implementation become more important than the idea, so the ideas are overestimated.

Things that can actually succeed:

* A payable gmail alternative.

* A payable mail list (I think 37 signas was working in to that).

* A payable online book designer like (write in markdown and have a professinal like pdf output, epub, mobi...).

* Online radios. There are a lot of labels that want to promote their new records, and a lot of music lovers that want to have their online radio.

* A payable service that evaluates and give you reports about your internet connection.

* Humble bundle as a service.

* [1 thousand more]

So... ideas there are a lot. Problem is decide which one to build or improve. There are for sure companies that do already all the previous examples, but small changes can become totally different products. The good products have people with good criteria behind. What i mean is that instead of looking for someone with good idea, is better to look for someone with good criteria.

On any case, thanks for the initiative.
The whole point of HTTPS and end-to-end crypto in general is that you know the communication is private between just you and your counterparty. If you subvert HTTPS so that there are middle men, that is broken.
"Schools are a relatively confined space and should be quite easy to police."

It's about a lot more than "policing" a confined space. It's about dealing with all of the issues that come with high-poverty areas. Children come to school hungry, tired, and traumatized. They have had ineffective teachers for multiple years in the past. Many have already given up, because they have felt given up on.

These are not "quite easy" problems to fix.
The downside of the book publisher model is that the publishing firms and associated agents are perceived as gatekeepers in the industry.

Unpublished authors talk about the one big break they need to be a success, and all that is standing between them and success is convincing a publishing company of their merits. The same applies in film making - it is the small guy currently waiting tables up against 'the man', who is holding them back from being a successful movie star and actor.

We don't have that in the entrepreneurial community, at least not to that extent. Without the perception of gatekeepers entrepreneurs know that the reward correlates to the work you put in.

I like the funding ideas that don't propagate the story that all you need to be a successful entrepreneur is to convince somebody to give you money.
Out of curiosity. Do any developers reading this refer to themselves as "techie" ?

Am I the only one who finds this term to be suspicious?
The teachers are making the same amount of money regardless of what school they work at. Most school districts have had pay scales based on amount of college education (degrees and credit hours) and longevity in the district. That is starting to change but there doesn't seem to be a good way to judge "merit" when determining teacher pay at the moment.

Teaching jobs in wealthy areas can often be vastly easier than in poor areas and as such they are highly desirable and hard to get due to a lack of teachers leaving those positions. When you teach at a school in a wealthy neighborhood you can expect great parental involvement, an active PTA that picks up the slack during budget shortfalls etc. When you work at a poor school you can expect to be a counselor, get little to no parental involvement and have to deal with tons of issues tangential to education. Teachers don't last long, the average teacher is only expected to last 3-5 years in the field.

A few anecdotes. The school district my wife teaches in pays for no PE teachers due to budget shortfalls. Three of the elementary schools in town have PE teachers that show up between three and four days per week entirely funded by the schools PTAs. The elementary schools in wealthy neighborhoods send home supply lists with items like paper, pencils, crayons, paper towels and kleenex. The parents send all that stuff in. The poor schools have that provided but once it's gone there isn't any more because the parents can't afford to pick up the slack. The school my wife teaches at is Title I provision G. That means the kids get all three of their meals at school during the week. 40% of the students at her school are classified as being "in transition" which is a bureaucratic way of saying homeless. There's a lot more money being spent at my wife's school than the "good" schools but most of it isn't spent on education, it's spent on the basic needs of the kids.
Really nice product, awesome to use, but pretty pricey.
But it has V8... but hey, what do I know, I use Opera...
AppFog. This is free till 2GM RAM limit. I am running my Django site www.mistrics.com on it.
No, this is with the default browser on the lower end phones.

For Lumia it's an optional download, but then again the Lumia markets don't have to worry so much about big brother.
This is a similar vulnerability to WAP. Nokia is providing a service: people with slow connections and cheap phones want it or need it.

Sure, they should be more up front with users from the outset.

But what I'd really like to see is Nokia working more closely with app developers to help them programatically detect these connections so users can be denied more easily in apps where security is critical. Some banks jumped through hoops trying to detect and shut down WAP connections.
So I'm curious. As a young programmer with 1.5 years before entering the workforce I have to wonder what you plan to do. From my super young and inexperienced perspective retirement will just mean having more control over my programming. Is programming still super fun and adicting?

So; what do you plan to do? A relaxed retirement? Occasional contracting? A startup? Open source? Quiting programming forever and travelling? Something a lot more reasonable than this false dichotomy?
I used to be with Media Temple and I never really had an issues using them, it was their Grid Server offering and pretty decent for the price. After a while I yearned for more control and power, so I moved to a 512mb Linode VPS plan which including their excellent backup plan costs me $25 per month. I host around 12 sites (mostly Wordpress sites) and it can handle everything that has been thrown at it thus far.

Keep in kind a managed VPS plan from Linode means no Cpanel or fancy control panel so everything needs to be done via the command line. Perfect if you want to better understand Linux and learn command line commands. The backup service is a separate offering that's $5 per month and I highly recommend it as you'll most likely destroy a few VM instances before you get the hang of how to configure things like server requests and email.

From my experience Linode is definitely one of the best and cheap. It's perfect bridging hosting between shared hosting and expensive cloud based dedicated VM hosting like EC2. Rackspace is also pretty good, I have friends who swear by them but can't say anything about them really as I've never used them.
Do you still own that domain? It's fantastic.
The 2012 Patent Rankings: IBM on Top (Again), Google and Apple Surging
I will not trust in someone to develop a product, that can not save 8000$ in one year and get 100% of the business.

a) That guy is not able to save such money = Doesn't have real interest in the product.
b) That guy is willing to share 50% the company, so probably doesn't trust on the idea as much as he/she can say.
c) If that guy doesn't have the money, and can't get the money, is because is probably not good enough to develop such product.

So if you want to pay as little at 8000 I really hope you where meaning it is not in America or Europe and it is in another country, where the base salary is lower than 500$.

For Wordpress hosting you also can't beat Wpengine.com as well. Those guys really know a thing or two about optimising and securing the hell out of Wordpress.
Can both of you guys just get back to me later? Kinda busy now.
Who do you suppose is doing the censoring and why?
Well, you could just copy a bunch of files, if that's all you need to do. But ideally you'd use a tool like Fabric to do your copying/moving, symlinking, server config changes, etc.

We use Python for a number of things too (and yes, I like the language a lot). The only trouble I have with Python in this context is actually cross platform support. It's a bit harder to get packages for the latest and greatest versions of modules and the interpreter if you have to deploy to e.g. Solaris 9 systems, unless you create them yourself. Theoretically it should have the same advantages, yes.
In my opinion, the article does not address what I experience as the real problem in the field of education: total lack of freedom to choose. After confiscating ("appropriating") the budget from the pockets of the parents, the politicians add insult upon injury by deciding in the parents' stead what education should be all about. I just want a competing portfolio of education service providers of which I choose the ones I want to work with, and I pay them out of my own pocket. Why does this kind of freedom seem so impossible to achieve even in the so-called "land of the free"?
> what shape is it, oh, it's a circle, so now check what I am colliding with

While this is true, consider that the huge library of built-up optimizations in a well used collision library like Havok very likely makes up for these checks.

Alternatively, they generally offer a lower level API such that you could just always call: `Havok::CheckCircleAAPlane` and then not have to worry about Havok doing it's dispatch. But then again if you don't use Havok's spatial culling you're likely missing out on a whole lot of optimizations, and advantages to using Havok.
I built http://pineapple.io all on my own in a matter of months (I also learned rails just so I could build it).

I am definitely seeing the 'end' of the cap where I simply can't put more time into it. So far I have held up really well though, and I implement most of if not all the changes that people want to see (if I feel they are a good fit, that is).

But yes, my traffic is growing every day with more and more users, and adding new features is starting to get somewhat daunting as my code base grows.

As far as marketing, accounting, programming, etc I do it all, with the occasional help from a friend when it is too much.

Highly recommended though :) My site is my baby, and the goal when I made it wasnt to make lots of cash... it was to make a LARGE site that everyone uses. ever since I was a kid I wanted to create a massive site with thousands of users, and so far my dream has become a reality. it is a very good feeling.
Wikpedia has one paragraph at http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/WebKit#Origins "However, the exchange of code patches between the two branches of KHTML has previously been difficult and the code base diverged because both projects had different approaches in coding."

It has a link to this post http://blogs.kde.org/node/1001 from 2005 saying there isn't much hope.

It would be nice to have a 2013 update.
japhyr are you a teacher? What subject? I'm definitely not saying that. The I was describing was curation - to know the good courses from the bad. Shoot, if you don't like the Harvard course, take the MIT course.

I agree that getting the computer to work properly can be an issue sometimes, but I don't think it's that complicated? I feel as though if people know how to post to facebook/twitter and stream video, they can get by in the course...please correct me if it is more involved than that. My only experience entailed exactly that - posting in a discussion forum and streaming lessons.

For background knowledge, I used to use physicsforums.com to answer all my questions. 99% of the time the question had already been asked.

japhyr I agree that a guiding hand is always helpful. But I would count finding you and getting your help as "taking responsibility for my own education". Kudos to you and your students!

I am using a Potalion brand 27in IPS screen from eBay right now and I am very pleased with it. It arrived from Korea in a few days and it has been working flawlessly for about a year now. I payed under $300 shipped, which is pretty amazing, I think they have gone up just a bit since then. There are a few sites/forums/blog posts that compare them, here is one: http://www.swiftworld.net/2012/04/14/budget-korean-27-ips-mo...

To your second question, it's funny to me that my old Macbook Pro (2007) could drive it out of the box, as it had the large DualLink DVI port on the side. My newer Macbook Pro (2011) has to use Apple's Thunderbolt to DualLink DVI adapter, which works great, but is one more thing to think about.
No wonder, the button was way too small. I was used to click it a lot, and I still miss it today. But before hitting the reply button I googled and found this extension [0]. I'm happy again.

BTW, hey Don I love your writings. Please keep writing and posting. Thanks for WebKit too!

That's correct. But I'm planning to remove this functionality anyway, just to be safe. It's too easy to accidentally open this vulnerability and it's unclear what the valid use-case is for parsing YAML or symbols from XML.

When I implemented this functionality, it was only to be compatible with the Rails parser.
My grandfather had an ancient color TV with this feature. You could press a toggle button on the front that would open or close an iris over a sensor, and the TV would adjust the on-screen color to match the room lighting.
> But a school can't just decide to pay its teachers more.

Why not? If there are so many environmental reasons why teaching at such a school is disincentivized, providing a monetary incentive could bring in teachers.

Essentially, Nokia improves webpage load performances by utilizing data compression algos on their servers through Xpress - similar to Opera and Amazon Silk. In between, Nokia decrypts HTTPS traffic - Opera and Amazon apparently don't.

So, effective use of Xpress could be limited to articles (The Verge), magazines and mailbox use could be done through IE or through the mail app. The problem is limited on the Lumia phones but it is a bigger deal just on their S40 phones.
That's an accessibility issue for users with JavaScript disabled (or where JavaScript fails to load).

On the other hand, it's also the recommended method to protect your users from a click-jacking attack across all browsers (read those that don't support CORS).
Apple wins an Emmy Award for 2012
Where I went to school the nicer schools were in the nicer areas because both the homes and the schools were newer. While the district spent the same amount of money to maintain them all two of the schools I went to were much nicer than surrounding schools due entirely to private donations. During the summer following my freshman year of highschool we got a brand new basketball court, all the materials and labor were donated. After I graduated the school got a new football field and track, also all through donations. Simply having extremely wealthy individuals living nearby and having their kids go to those schools provided incentive for them to help make the schools better. The other schools couldn't keep up because the families they service didn't have the same type of resources.
A new gem release is in the works and should be pushed tomorrow. In the mean time, you can use this workaround.
I thought it was Ventura Publisher vs. Aldus Pagemaker.
I'd like to hear about how WebKit went mobile for the iPhone. Eg if Apple worked with Nokia and their port of WebKit to Symbian, or started their own port from scratch.
I listen to anything electronic or just nature sounds. Neither have that much structure, and they definitely do not have vocals.
what's behind not being able to search while a song is playing or paused? is that expected behavior?
I'm the editor of Dr. Dobb's. Sorry about the difficulty you've encountered. Are you using the Dr. Dobb's app or straight browser access? If the latter, what browser? We'll try to get this fixed. TIA.
I am of the opinion that if these people cannot afford to properly raise their children, they should not be having them. It shouldn't be the school's responsibility to take care of all these basic parenting duties. Perhaps that is where we should start.

What if the government were to offer $X to women in return for having their tubes tied (same for the male equivalent)? Only the poor people would need the money badly enough to actually do so. You could offer a small sum for a reversible process (which you'd have to pay back in order to get it undone), or a large sum for a permanent procedure. This could very likely solve a lot of these issues in a generation.
Given that your commenting is on Disqus, is anything on the page actually dynamic for a given viewer? When you add/edit a post, can't you just precompute all* the html/rss output and serve users static pages? Even a super cheap webhost can server static pages super fast. (You'll want to be aware of HTTP caching if you go full out on this; if you serve from static files you'll get a Last-Modified header which triggers cachability heuristics that you don't deal with now)

I do recognize that you'll have to update all of your blog entry pages to reflect changes in the recent posts section.
Looks neat. Thanks for this!
Thanks, that seemed to do the trick!
Wow this is really great. Safari use is increasing all the time. KHTML originally came from KDE of Linux fame, and has good support for most HTML standards, making it a wonderful language to start with.
I've got a Dell U2711 which also has the same panel as the Apple Cinema displays and yet was only about 2/3 of the cost...

3 years warranty (though i've heard they replace your broken display with returned ones which might or might not be faulty) , color calibrated and no-dead-pixel-guarantee...

Edit: Ah, seems the display mentioned by parent has LED backlighting compared to CCFL in mine - of course i'd prefer the LED too ;)
Not wanting to die is a mainstream mindset.
You're using the built-in debugging server, which does not handle concurrent requests. To use something standalone, that's a bit more robust, use uwsgi:

zmusic-ng $ uwsgi --chdir backend/ -w zmusic:app --http-socket 0.0.0.0:5000

I've updated the README to reflect this suggestion:

You're actually right, I'm pretty sure this is still at the A/B test stage. I tried from two different accounts, mine (I'm following him) and my wife's account she's not following him and neither of us saw this feature.
Michael Faraday solved about as many difficult problems as any scientist in history and did it without a formal education. And in his time there were even more barrier to working class people joining academia than there are now.

Skills and an apprenticeship under the right mentor trump the piece of paper in terms of real world results. It's really tough for more conservative types to realize this until the researcher in question is so famous that they no longer have a chance of hiring them, though.

State law prevents it in many cases. Collective bargaining agreements with unions, standard pay scales etc.
To clarify, I have the Apple adapter and I have no experience with the monoprice one, they were just the cheapest.

I've been known to use "fly" (a script-ish wrapper to libgd) within a shell script running as a CGI to do super quick prototyping of dynamic graphics for web pages. It's nothing I'd keep around for real work, though. It was just too heavy.

One time, I had the problem of taking a huge data dump and reformatting it, so I wrote a shell script in the traditional way: grep, cut, and things like that. It was terribly slow. It was so slow that I managed to write, test, and run a C program which did the same thing before the shell script could finish. That's how slow it can be.

The problem with Dells return policy - at least according to much i've read about it on the interwebs - is that they indeed have a pretty liberal policy regarding returns, but you seem to be almost guaranteed to receive an already returned (i.e. not new) display...

I've found this out because i wanted to swap out my U2711 which has some issues when it's warm in the room - it might just go blank for a few seconds and then go back on again...

However since that is quite seldom (sometimes once a week, sometimes 3-4 times in an hour and then returns to normal) i've refrained from returning it cause one could get an even worse model - or so i've read..
