Apache was king (and still has the largest install base), but nginx is probably the best webserver you can use right now. http://wiki.nginx.org
Thanks for the info! I'll check out REE again.
Can you elaborate a bit on this? Did you simply patch the GC? I've seen Evan Weaver's post (http://blog.evanweaver.com/articles/2009/04/09/ruby-gc-tunin...) on it, but that's it.
Avoiding local slang when writing is also "ill", my brother.
No, this is absolutely not the case. There are plenty of large sites e.g., yellowpages.com and urbandictionary.com (which switched from PHP) which are built using Rails. Even if you have scaling problems that are around…
More redirection spam by tsecuritytimes that leads to another site that opens a popunder advertisement? Isn't this against the HN rules?
I have the N900. It replaced my E71. The Skype integration is amazing. :-) I agree that Symbian is a dead end. I have two books on Symbian development, and Symbian's bizarre form of C++ and their relatively complex code…
I don't know if it's fair to say that Qt was developed by Nokia. Nokia acquired Trolltech last year (who were the developers of it).
The US market, while high in visibility, is largely irrelevant in the global scope. Nokia has a massive install base.
Twitter's frontend is still definitely Ruby (on Rails). Based on what I've heard from people who have consulted there, it's a gigantic ball of crap. They've so heavily patched Rails 2.0 that they can't realistically…
There's a reference to "reddits" on the preferences page. Also, I am randomly getting 404s and other server errors when loading the homepage.
Look up SPF + DKIM (aka "domain keys").
Random question, but did Pepsi offer any vending machines that had Coke products? I imagine at least a few Pepsi employees might like some of the Coke brands (e.g. Dr. Pepper).
This, but add MongoDB as a replacement for MySQL/PostgreSQL, too. Switching from Subversion to Git was like seeing for the first time. No more nightmare merges!
Wait until you discover Sphinx!
It reduces the keyspace that needs to be searched when bruteforcing... leading to accounts being compromised more easily. That's about it.
There's a few users currently abusing my company's site via Yahoo Pipes (in the form of a few hundred thousand malformed requests per week). We're a decently-ranked startup (top 2k alexa) and the requests don't really…
I disagree about nginx being more difficult to configure than Apache. Apache's config file was terrifyingly complex to me when I first started using it.
If you're doing a serious deployment, check out Unicorn instead: http://unicorn.bogomips.org Basic overview of its architecture: http://github.com/blog/517-unicorn
You need to read Applied Cryptography.
I want to watch this, but I can only watch the postage stamp-sized video linked from the first paragraph. If I actually visit the video's page on Vimeo, it tells me that the video is private. :(
Supposedly, it ships on the 19th. I pre-ordered. :)
This system is exactly how pragprog.com works. You can even purchase a PDF/book combo before the book is completed and have access to a (constantly updated) beta version of the PDF. When the book is completed, the PDF…
Thanks!
