I don't think you need an excuse, really. Could be educational, or other honorable things (or not), so long as they're open source for others to hack on top of or learn from.

Thanks for sharing, that was very insightful. I find myself being increasingly annoyed being around people who are continuously tapping their phone, taking pictures, spending minutes choosing filters and thinking of cliché captions, list goes on. They aren't present, often giving wrong replies to my questions.

I don't know why, I find people doing the same but playing games instead are less annoying.

Been using convox across 2 startups for many many months. I have never once encountered docker-specific problems. Usually it's my mistake which the convox team is always helpful with[1]. I can say Noah, David and the team know what they are doing and I can't imagine DIY-ing the convox management and tooling layer.

Seriously, I'm using Docker for development AND production and I don't see the problems the other rants are talking about. And they talk as if it's a daily occurrence.

If you're already using AWS, give them a try. Painless & contained install-uninstall operations too[2].

Honestly if you're new like you said (blank slate), I'd recommend using Docker for your development. Get comfortable with the idea of containers first. Start with one, then try using more (your app, redis, rabbit, etc all containerized... but personally I run DB locally).

Is your reply really necessary? It doesn't contribute anything. At least other people having the same issues which you know the solutions but don't share, can benefit. Sorry, it just came out wrong to me.

Any plan for PayPal?

Wow, that looks really messy for what is essentially printing items in collection...

What are you talking about? I had to enable Hyper-V to get Virtualbox or any other VM solution working. But yes you're right that you can't use them at the same time. The new native docker doesn't use third-party VM (boot2docker) and interfaces with the host hypervisor directly. So I had to stop all running virtualbox VMs to get docker to start.

When was it gone?

Google don't want you to use bookmarks, which is why Google Chrome bookmarking sucks.

Why?

I am interested in learning more about their system architecture. Anyone know if any such writeup is available? How do they scale and what amount of data are they dealing with daily? Disaster recovery, considering they archive history?

Went to a few of these in Malaysia. Really good for team building but the challenge itself is either too hard or too easy. There is no replay value either because the staffs are so eager to spoil the solutions and tricks after a game.

Definitely give it a try though. Go to the bigger ones because they tend to have space for neat tricks like sliding door/book shelves etc.

As opposed to IRC's NickServ, ChanServ, and their variants depending on the server? Expired nick, exposed passwords due to insecure authentication mechanism, no standard client, and so many more I can cite.

I love IRC and grew up with it. But don't compare it to Slack for technical knowledge requirement.

Thank you so much for this. It can be hard to explain to the team about Docker in pure text/speech. I'm sure the visuals will help. Will be sharing this!

Can't tell if the hacked ribbon is serious or part of the joke...

I've been wondering long enough why devs aren't forced to provide a short description why they need the permissions they're asking for.

As a muslim, I don't think this belongs here.

How were you able to repost this? I see similar URL. I know because when I tried to post this before I got redirected to a submission... probably this one: http://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=4336148

Is the 3 at the end of the URL a subtle jab?

You should copy reddit's. Basically time-based sort, and trending submission sort.

Also inevitably you'd need some grouping/labeling so users can filter out/in. E.g. I'd never want any submission about cats.

A sorting & filtering feature would seal the deal for me!

> I wrote my first novel on my iPad.

But why? Wouldn't it be much more convenient to write on a laptop/PC with proper tools? How does one write more than a few sentences on an iPad? Don't tell me STT...

Sorry, 160 characters taken out of context can mean both good or bad. No summing up there.

How is this a ripoff? I didn't follow the story but from what I see in the GH page, he's making an alternative to your currently closed-source solution.

>Anonymous struck back, albeit in a somewhat childish way,

According to the article, Anon claimed Panda Sec helped jail 25 anons. How is that childish, purely from target perspective? It's either Law Enforcers, or their affiliates.

I don't see anybody saying one need to use REPLs only. What's nice with JS is you have the option to open browser's JS console and try stuff there. You don't need to. But you can.

All modern browsers has JS console. That's dev environment setup freely for you. And if you use FF, enhancing that env with Firebug is just a few clicks away. WIth the rise of web apps nowadays, this is actually a very good move.

Why do I get a blank page with "Wow. Wow." as the only text?

Heh I thought it's about computer memory.
