Since this is a Jekyll site, I'm not sure what we could wrap tests around. The beauty of the static site generator is that it just always works -- at least as far as the html content is concerned.
Is there a specific javascript feature or interactive feature that you'd like help with testing?
Prof. Conway also wrote a Perl module that allows you to write code in Klingon:

+1000. If your content management system is also your content delivery system, you are doing it wrong.
And, I guess I'll visit this page in lynx...
What about BIND for DNS?

It's pretty safe to assume that an incredibly busy wireless network in Sochi (or really anywhere) is about as safe as the Black Hat conference wifi.

A quick browse through my domain's catchall spam folder shows an e-mail addressed to techdirt@mypersonaldomain. I don't have a techdirt account -- nor have ever used this e-mail address anywhere. Yes, spam bots make guesses, folks.
The Internet would be a better place if people would stop, take a deep breath and think before they type.
Good idea: Let the dropbox folks know that you received spam to a custom address tied to their service and let them look into it, whether it be a directed spam campaign or a possible leak.
Bad idea: "OMG!!1! Dropbox is pwn3d! Admit it! Apologize for your wrongs!"
If you want a registrar and DNS host, I've had great luck with http://dnsimple.com
Great customer support, and they're always adding new features. And having 3rd party DNS hosting separate from your server provider makes switching providers easier.
I've found that if you have a reliable third-party DNS service with a good interface, using godaddy just for registrations isn't that painful. You get to avoid the worst parts of the godaddy interface -- and just need to deal with their annoying upsell attempts each time you renew.
I use godaddy to register my domains, and I use the DNS management I get with my VPS provider (slicehost). I have no complaints.
I think I dated one of those in high school.
Great post. Jon Druse created a Ruby gem recently that does something very similar -- but more project-oriented rather than global ~/.screenrc:
