I really enjoyed reading this post: I think it's valuable to share explorations that didn't pan out. Beyond that, as person not working in compilers, I thought that Nicholas did a …

Ah sorry, looks like I got ahead of myself due to my feed reader picking up the post this morning!

This is very likely because without the full path your shell is using the `time` builtin function of your shell as opposed to using the binary. The shell's builtin keyword for `tim…

> devs don't really know / care about running things in production I disagree with this entirely. Devs _you have workd with_ might not have cared but it doesn't make the statement …

I do enjoy reading a physical book more than an ebook but only by a little. It's interesting to me that people here so far seem to prefer technical books to be ebooks due to their …

There's also apparently terms in the Github ToS that allow viewing and forking of public projects regardless of license. What this means in a practical sense, I'm not sure. https:/…

I think that a big part of algorithms knowledge is knowing what exists . So even a though typical curriculum forces the learning of each of these algorithms, I think the value is i…

A couple years back there was a similar presentation at Defcon that used routers that exposed UPNP to the public internet. I've linked the talk below: http://defcon.org/html/links/…

I enjoyed reading this. I can relate to the point about reading open issues of a project to know exactly what state the project is in and where it is going. While I don't actively …

I read line 255 the same as chc: that the jQuery function fails in certain cases with IE8. It appears the corresponding bug (mentioned in the comment) supports this reading: http:/…

Are the servers you're building serving concurrent clients? An exception could take out multiple in-flight requests. (not against your idea, just curious how you handle it)

I agree here, I think Tornado is really quite readable. I was pleasantly surprised the first time that I looked at the source.

I've had a similar idea for a while but never executed it well. I wanted to have my personal website merge all of my various feeds from other services into posts on my site to be t…

I don't care much about receipt notification but chat history sync was probably one of my biggest annoyances with GTalk. I'm glad to see it solved in some way although it is disapp…

Hangouts also provides information about whether your messages were viewed and syncs chat history across devices whether they were online at the time the message was sent or not.

It makes sense to me that it can't possibly detect all race conditions but I had never really thought about the ability to detect any race conditions programmatically. Running the …

The race detector sounds interesting: http://tip.golang.org/doc/go1.1#race

This is awesome, congrats on the release. I'm very excited with the Python integration. I'm going to try doing some web development with Light Table now. One thing that would be ve…

Chat Heads is actually a separate feature although I haven't seen many people online note this. I cannot yet install Facebook Home on my device but when I last updated the Facebook…

I've really been wanting to do these for a few months now. I've just got to get through finals this week before I can start!

Yeah it would be great to be able to make API requests using the helper methods from outside of a request handler. As it is, it isn't that difficult to do it otherwise but it's jus…

It's really easy to use too. I recently extended the base implementation for a service that it didn't support and it took me very little time.
