I've been using wallabag for a while, switched to Pocket for this exact reason. Maybe switching back is the answer to this? Looked around a bit, someone seems to have thought about this already.

We've been doing this for a while for a website that receives not too much traffic:

- we use a single server and the domain name determines which white label we are on.

- we use LESS and everything is variable. We load a single compiled CSS based on the domain.

- we never hard code anything, unless we know it's a single page for a single domain (everything is internationalized).

- the database contains everything and we filter out stuff a particular white label doesn't want.

This is because the website displays content (it's not a service like shopify) and most white labels want most of our editorial content, so syncing DBs is not an option (is it?). We have 40+ white labels and unless the customization is heavy we can create a new one in a matter of minutes.

I'm like you: I've been an active reader for the past couple years, but I rarely comment.

Sometimes I have stuff to say, but I'm afraid I'll spend the rest of the day coming back to HN and hope for acknowledgment and responses. This could be selfish, I know, especially when I really know something about a topic, but I can't help it.

As always, Italians are not able to do something properly. And this is an Italian writing.

The level of Facebook addiction in this country is really scary. I see fellow engineers constantly on Facebook during free time, instead of actually building something.

Sad, really.

I already checked studenthousing and SVA and they both offer housing for much longer periods (semester/year) and much much money. NYU asks for a SSN and since I'm from Europe I can't apply.

I contacted HHH, let's see what they say... Honestly, I thought that for a student/intern this would have been very easy!
