Why is TTL relevant here. You register the domain name with Iceland but the nameservers need have nothing to do with Iceland.

.ch (Switzerland) is probably the best rule-of-law domain. Wikileaks is still going strong on that. I like the idea of .ru or other TLDs under sclerotic court systems. The fear wit…

Is 'portmanteau' a portmanteau?

Move to NY. There are tons of top paying Python jobs in NY - including many web-related positions.

Can you be much more detailed about: 1. Longevity of the data - when can it be deleted? 2. Damage resulting from losing a random 1TB 3. How often do you need access to the most com…

His points may be valid but his language is that of a 15 year old. It's a wonder he has a job. Anyway, here are the problems: 1. All Mac users should be using Homebrew now - that s…

ThinkPad is the best computer out there aside from the MBP - the only problem is with the OS typically found on the ThinkPad. My time isn't worth saving $100 with Windows - sorry.

I love the idea of slabs too large to move outside of the rooms in which they'll be placed. I also love that the slabs will have extra space for people in the future to write somet…

If you have that much time on your hands, just use github as your main repository source and Redmine+Gitosis as a secondary? Everybody with a git clone has a full copy of everythin…

I don't necessarily want to report a garbage website as spam - it's just garbage for me. Anyway, the 'Report Spam' link doesn't always appear for me.

You should be ashamed of yourself. Somebody's deep suffering at our own hands is not 'politics'.

I currently copy a DVD of original images (JPG) every time I make a physical photo album - and place the DVD in the album. I'm considering moving to very small USB sticks because t…

Notice how the novell site swallows up comments? What's up with that?

Why are people using anything but Ubuntu anymore

s3 is a representation of 3 geographically diverse mirrored stores. In addition, versioning is available to address the issue of a rogue credentialed service deleting objects. Your…

It seems like he should use a higher level language to do this stuff: http://docs.python.org/dev/library/ssl.html Very well documented and does most of what he wants.

Tried Absolute but am now back at Monaco, and happy with that.
