Beautiful, thank you for this! Would be nice if there it was bundled with sample patched fonts, so those wanting to try it could see if it's worth the trouble to patch a font.

I commend Waldemar and Thomas for announcing their decision so that someone else can take the reigns, rather that letting things die slowly and quietly. On the other hand, I can't …

Thank you for posting that; the headline of this story implies that the new version is less free than 1.3.0, which does not seem to be the case.

As horrible as PHP is, it is really easy to sit down with PHP and a tutorial or a book and start banging out code that gives you instant results... You could say the same thing abo…

When will people realize that the main reason PHP was/is so successful has nothing to do with the language? PHP got huge because it's free and super easy to deploy on commodity-lev…

Very cool, but at only 31" tall it's unlikely to function well as a standing desk unless you are very, very short.

Nothing revolutionary or EC2-specific here. The article could well be titled "Mounting an SSH host on OS X using OSXFuse".

I second this. Also consider Python-related meetups and user groups, like Django.

Funny article, but it misses the fact that GitHub's pricing is less about code separation, and more about access management. There's nothing stopping a customer from cramming sever…

EC2 is not always a good substitute for dedicated servers for numerous reasons, I/O performance chief among them.

I switched to yafc from lftp years ago and never looked back, so I can't really compare it to newer versions of lftp. IIRC the biggest wins at the time were context-sensitive tab c…

My obscure favorites: yafc: The best command-line FTP client that nobody's ever heard of. Local caching, tab completion, bookmarking, SFTP, and other generally awesome stuff. clex:…

Kudos on providing a price comparison page, but it's somewhat misleading that you're including Authorize.Net set up fees in the "Per Month Costs". Isn't that more reflective of fir…

Thanks. How long until release? :)

NFSN is attractive in principle, but their management UI is awful. I had a few low-traffic domains registered and hosted there and ended up transferring them elsewhere out of sheer…

TL;DR: DHH is annoyed that there are people in the tech industry who have never heard of him.

If someone were to implement this with vi keybindings, and/or Zen Coding macros, then it'd be truly noteworthy.

Good work, but doesn't "Pure CSS" usually mean "CSS without JavaScript"?

I've been a SizeUp user for about 8 months, and use it every day. The Cinch/SizeUp developer has been responsive and open to user feedback and suggestions. Highly recommended.

Takes me back to 1992. Damn I feel old.

I bought my 2408WFP specifically because it can be rotated, but I never actually ended up using it in portrait mode. I figured a portrait display would be better for viewing code, …

+1 for the 2408WFP. Excellent S-PVA display, except that it's a bitch to calibrate accurately, so beware if you need calibrated color. The Dell U2410, which replaced the 2408WFP, h…
