The summary is also well written.
I just saw that you have a run() command for invoking the shell. Would be cool to just use ! (like Matlab) or %%! (like IPython).

Ask HN: Any good CMSs for showing off creative works?
Apologies if this is an inappropriate submission, but I don't know any community from where I could get better recommendations...

5 years ago I rolled my own CMS in PHP for a personal website. It was a basic hierarchical site that displayed all my creative endeavors. So different sections and subsections for woodworking, for guitar recordings, for sculpture, drawings, writings, minor inventions, some stupid Flash games, open source projects (but hosted on github or google code), juggling recordings, and more, just to stress how varied the content was...so not just code, or just visual art. Each "leaf" page had a few pictures, or a video, or a link (or combinations thereof), and a short description. Nothing fancy, and it served me well for a few years, but it was a pain to upload new content, and didn't have any social features like comments for each project. My site somehow got some malicious JS injected about a year ago and I took it down cause I didn't have time to investigate.

Fast-forward to today, and I want my site back up, but still don't have time to de-rust my own CMS, and just want something to plug and play. Think maybe a really stripped down version of my deviantart profile (http://dougk16.deviantart.com/gallery/). I started this somewhat alongside my personal site, but it didn't really have the flexibility I needed, and of course wasn't on my own server.

Any ideas?

Thank you!

Except that I've had native French speakers butcher my French on several occasions (my wife is French and she begged me to give up LiveMocha for this reason). The quality of help you get is very hit or miss and if you're not already comfortable with the language, you may not realize that you're getting rubbish feedback.

Just think about how awful many English speakers are on the Web and ask yourself "do I want them teaching me English?"
Yes but no one can really guarantee anything on the internet. What I don't want Big G' to know, won't go on line and if it has to, it will be done right. The only thing is, there's not much I can think of that I'd really give a #u!@ if G' Man is in on it or not. I don't have a deep rooted principles regarding this leading my life and ultimately restring my movement. I use what I use, until its no longer useful, and I'm well aware that what I use is also using me. Fair exchange I think.

TL;DR I have ADHD and it made me a better person

I was diagnosed with ADHD as a kid. I received many different types of drugs and treatments that, IMO, didn't work. I barely passed the 3rd grade, failed the 6th grade and dropped out of school when I was a junior.

I was also a gifted artist, like my father, I could draw anything. I wasn't fantastic but it came easily to me. At 16 I picked up the guitar and quickly learned how to play and was proficient after a month.

These experiences made me question why I was good in some areas but failed in others. By the time I was 19 I gave up ALL drugs I was taking for ADHD and started my own treatment of "taking responsibility for my life."

This was the hardest thing I ever had done. At that time I was reading at a 6th grade level and has no prospects for jobs. I went to live with my grandparents and received the best education of my life. Discipline. They were farmers.

After 2 months I knew I had to leave and make a life for myself. I was scared and afraid but I had started reading self-help books and when tested again at the department of vocational rehabilitation I was reading 4-5 years ahead of my current age. My spatial skills were off the charts (their words).

I knew I had something special about myself that I could work with. I knew that if I worked hard I could do anything even if it took me longer to accomplish it I could do it.

I started by working my way up a janitorial company. I learned spanish in 6 months using Neuro Linguistic Programming techniques. I met my future wife and got married. I started putting computers together for the purpose of playing video games. I loved it. I was good at it. I eventually worked as a tech for a big box store and then worked in IT at a large insurance company when I found out I was going to be a father.

I learned everything I could about Active Directory. I then learned Perl as my first programming language and automated most of my job. I then started making games at home and learning as many languages as possible. I felt unstoppable.

Then my wife and I were having problems. Not huge problems but enough to get help. We sought counseling and happened to meet with a woman who studied ADHD as a specialty during her phD. Within 1 hour she said to me, "You know you have ADHD right?"

My heart sank. All those years of failure came rushing back to me. I thought it was crap. A ruse. A mis-diagnosis. How could I have accomplished so much. How could I have gone back to college and graduated with a 4.0 for my associates in comp sci and 3.8 for my bachelors. How could I learn all those languages and read over 500 books.

I had to come to grips with the fact that I still had it. But I made it work for me and it was unfortunately affecting my relationship with my wife. We were able to come to an understanding about who I am and accepting the way I think.

Now, I make games for iOS fulltime. From home. ADHD isn't a death sentence. It's only a disorder if it's making your life harder.

No kidding; after months and months dealing with the actual mechanics of the medical bills for a simple leg contusion (stupidly thought it was broken; won't do that again), if the big C ever hits, I think we're headed to Mexico to avoid bankruptcy of both time and money.

Just dealing with the afteraffects of a simple ER trip for what turned out to be a bruise was eye-opening.

I had the pleasure of dealing with a multitude of bills from random places (in some cases, lawyers' offices, who handle some doctor's bills from first charge--i.e., not collections--and boast on their web sites about being able to return "200% of what's owed"), determining what's legit and what's fraudulent, the paperwork sent back and forth between us and our insurance company and between the billers and our insurance company (who weren't paying anyway because we have a very high deductible, but you have to jump through massive hoops to get them to actually count your payments towards the deductible), the attempts of the medical billers to double-bill and continue to appeal the bill with two insurance companies months after I paid the bill (how they collect that 200%, I assume)...a total mess.

Someone got paid 2k for a deep contusion, but I think most went to middle(wo)men and lawyers' offices.

That 62% medical bankruptcies in 2007 in the US are actually insured persons (cite: http://www.washingtonpost.com/wp-srv/politics/documents/amer...) is no surprise; what would surprise me is if it isn't 20%+ higher now.
Sure, but they deleted the Brown IDs and complied with Brown's demands after the cease and desist. Now they're making these sandwiches at another restaurant, and Brown's still threatening them.

What about trim levels? Trim levels are crucial in the buying decision. For example, if you search for a Ford F-150 on your site, there is no way to see if it's an XLT, King Ranch, Raptor, etc. The price and equipment difference in those vehicles is huge.

What about options and equipment? Does the car have navigation? Sunroof? Most consumers have specific option packages in mind when searching for car online.

This is why VIN explosion is necessary for any serious automotive shopping site. If a consumer can't narrow the vehicles down to a trim and option package level then it won't get wide adoption.
feel lucky you don't have a kid with medical problems.

I've had to drag out accepting an offer from a company so I could find out 100% if my child's doctor was covered by their insurance or not. In the end I had to turn it down because he wasn't in the network, and having to pay the 20k out of network deducible would have ate any net gain I would have gotten by taking that job, I had to turn it down.

I felt bad dragging out the process so long, but I really had to cover myself, and at least on their side they were 100% understanding.

This sucked, however we're still lucky. We had her (hopefully) last surgery last week. While staying in the Ronald McDonald house (her surgeon just moved further away from us) we got to hear tales of people having their house foreclosed on, due in part to their kid going through leukemia treatments (they were/are insured btw).

You shouldn't have to lose your house because of medical necessity
One of the problems with healthcare in the US that for a long time, lots of people had insurance that would cover everything. So people would go to the emergency room over a stomach ache or schedule a doctors appointment because of a runny nose. Why not? So long as they paid the premiums, there was no incremental cost for going to the doctor. And while you're there, get some tests. Hell, get all the tests! Why not, you're not paying for them. And since the doctor knows you're not paying for them, they can bill whatever they want for them.

The net effect is that you have a bunch of people consuming excessive and over priced medical services. This means lines get longer and overall costs, especially for the uninsured, go through the roof.

On that note, I think the high deductible health plans make a lot of sense. I'm covered if something really expensive happens to me, but I still have to front the first $1300 and then another $1500 or something at a 20% co-pay. So my total exposure is only $2800, which won't break the bank if I get into a serious accident. But it's enough to make me think twice about going to the doc over trivial issues.

Some people would argue that you shouldn't have to think about cost with a doctor - if you think you need to see a doctor, then see a doctor. But that really can, and has, gotten out of control if you completely disconnect people from the price of healthcare the way US insurance has for a long time.
"Is the free-market model even applicable to health care?"

It works about as well applied to health care, as applied to police coverage, military defense, restaurant health inspections, road maintenance, and education. Not as well as when applied to a farmers market or factory widget production.

Its a little harder for med because quite a bit of med care happens to medically uneducated people. Given a couple years of med school and some on the job experience, and a couple days to fully research each emergency room and cardiology department in the country, my neighbor could probably have made an intelligent free market decision when he had his heart attack. However, instead of a free market, the ambulance instead took him unconscious to the nearest ER, where they'll pretty much do what they want and then charge what they want. The true miracle of the situation is it may have been a financial disaster, but medically it all turned out OK. Decades of propaganda has taught me that only a free market can provide decent services, yet at least medical care works pretty well with a feudal system where you simply report to the nearest castle and pay whatever tax the feudal lord demands.
ADD was changed to ADHD-PI in 1994 when the DSM-IV was published.

ADHD comes in 3 subtypes, Hyperactive-Impulsive, Predominantly Inattentive, and Combined (which is what I am diagnosed with). There is also a disorder called Slow Cognitive Tempo that is similar to ADHD, but still a different classification of disorder.

The truth is, ADHD is way more complex than what most people believe ADHD is. Many people think they have it that do not. Many psychiatrists misdiagnose patients with ADHD, when the actual problem is a different disorder. And many people are struggling in life because they have not been diagnosed with ADHD yet.

ADHD has only ever been a huge burden on my education, relationships, and quality of life. It does not give people with ADHD any sort of "super powers" or "exceptional intelligence and creativity". It doesnt have any beneficial traits whatsoever.

Hyperfocus is a form of self medicating. It is the only time when the chaotic hurricane in our mind is calmed. We can focus on certain activities that stimulate us because its the only time were not extremely uncomfortable.

The problem is that we cant control what we hyper focus on. Many of us can not self motivate ourselves to not procrastinate. Many of us can not remember what we just read or where we put our keys 5 seconds ago no matter what. Many of us can not stop ourselves from saying absolutely offensive and cruel things without provocation. Many of us hardly have any real friends, and the friends we do have are just like us. Many of us can barely speak a full sentence clearly without stumbling over our words because our minds float away on a tangent.

ADHD is a horrible disorder to suffer with. Just as bad as schizophrenia, bulimia, bipolar disorder, depression, anxiety, and autism. Anybody who is trying to live with ADHD untreated should seriously reconsider and seek professional psychiatric help. Research ADHD and all other closely related disorders, and figure out how you can help your psychiatrist better help you.

Its the single best decision I've ever made.
I believe Sweden's system is organized roughly in that manner, though not all the way down to individual hospitals. The majority of the funding comes from local/regional taxes that pay for the healthcare system within the region. Then it's supplemented with some national funds that subsidize poorer and more rural regions, and which also provide grants to incentivize regions to do some things that the national government considers priorities. A quick look at Wikipedia says it's overall 71% funded at a local/regional level and 29% at a national level.

Switzerland also has a system based on compulsory insurance within each canton. The state doesn't operate the healthcare directly, but residents of each canton have to buy insurance from one of a small number of nonprofit insurance providers available in their canton, which end up doing the risk pooling.

@superplussed. I've played with both. My diet isn't awesome, and never has been, so I'm sure that doesn't help. But if I could choose being more focused or giving up chocolate Pop-Tarts, I'm at a point in life where I'm just going to enjoy my Pop-Tarts and deal with the consequences.
This is really nice, thanks for sharing. When this thread hit the front page last night I was very surprised that no one had done this before with Backbone--as it turns out, a few people have!
The criticism of #38 is misplaced. Historically, powerful and rich nations were ones with progressive (for its time) civil policies. Greeks were powerful, until corruption set in. When Rome was a Republic, it was powerful. When any one individual tried to become the emperor, it begun its slow decay. It's not something that occurs over night. What PG is saying that, all else being equal, the richer nation will be more prosperous. There are going to be unaccountable natural advantage a particular region will have (Middle East), that no matter how corrupt, it will be prosperous so long as it has what the rest of the world wants.

Currently, China is getting more and more powerful, and at the same time the government is implementing and exploring more liberal policies towards civil rights. This is pretty telling.

The criticism of #31 doesn't make sense. How does PG's statement (or thought process) excuse racism? I'll copy and paste PG's statement here:

I suspect the biggest source of moral taboos will turn out to be power struggles in which one side barely has the upper hand. That’s where you’ll find a group powerful enough to enforce taboos, but weak enough to need them.

Yes, because when you're trying to get your non-technical friends and family to get used to Linux, they will be REALLY keen on going into UEFI to disable-reenable-disable-again etc. to switch between operating systems, whereas it was a simple keystroke up until recently.

I'd like to understand this comment, but I'm afraid I can't fathom its relation to what you quoted.

I meant to convey that the highly analytical mindset is lauded as a great strength here. The popularity of social skill self-help type articles on here also demonstrates that it is a strength with trade-offs. Y'know, like almost all differences in people's make ups.

Sorry if we're talking at cross purposes.

It would be lovely for MS to promote alternative open source frameworks and make it as easy as possible for .Net shops to use them.

That way .Net programmers will get a nice cost saving when someone inevitably ports the whole lot over to Mono/Linux.

This argument comes up quite regularly, but it is based on a misunderstanding of A/B testing.

People see blog posts about changing button colours and think that is all there is to A/B testing. I've seen far more success with much more radical changes. I work in the A/B testing industry (see my startup Myna: http://mynaweb.com) and this experience is reflected by others in the industry. E.g. see this video by Dan Siroker from our Optimizely (a competitor of ours): http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lDfoVxHud7Y&feature=youtu... He directly addresses this issue.

There is no reason you can't test the example you give of streamlining the checkout flow. So long as you have sufficient resources you can test anything you can change and measure -- landing pages, websites, business models...
I think you're spot on that in general, the speed-quality tradeoff creates a legitimate case for content producers to choose Vimeo.

However, that's not really my complaint, but rather how slow buffering is handled by the player. In my case, the player responds to my low bandwidth by repeatedly attempting to play fractions of a second of choppy video at a time. When the player is struggling with buffering, I believe it should either downgrade the video quality or make me wait until I can watch the full video (or at least a few seconds of it) without interruption.

Strangely enough, even when the buffering progress bar makes it seem that I've loaded the next few seconds of the video, I'll get jittery video (as if the indicator is just wrong).

These are mostly player issues, and they're mostly what's putting me off about Vimeo. Now, I've been experiencing this for years on various computers and connections (of course, I don't remember the times where everything worked fine), but perhaps this is only affecting a fraction of users that I happen to belong to.
