Many have commented here on the computational challenges of enumerating, storing, and searching very large virtual libraries. While molecules can be represented and stored as strin…

First of all, I'm not defending what is obviously predatory. However, there is more involved then what you might think at first glance. Right or wrong, correctional facilities have…

Nice work. I implemented something very similar last year: https://github.com/jlafon/pynamodb .

That makes sense. I had only seen the Memcache & Redis datastores being used (and both being comparable to DynamoDB).

It's interesting that Netflix decided to write this rather than using Amazon's own DynamoDB. I wonder specifically if DynamoDB was too expensive (as I have found), or was there som…

Author of the paper here. The file operations are distributed strictly without links, otherwise we could make no guarantees that work wouldn't be duplicated, or even that the algor…

What I meant is that getting the toolbar to show up when you aren't serving from localhost isn't as trivial as setting DEBUG=True. It requires other settings ( https://github.com/d…

I end up using Django Rest Framework ( http://www.django-rest-framework.org/ ) generated UIs along with the debug toolbar, and then disabling the generated UIs when I'm done profil…

For those interested, here are a couple of differences between this and django-debug-toolbar (an excellent, widely used utility that also provides SQL inspection). 1. django-debug-…

I'm trying to understand this too. This is only a problem if the OAuth provider (Google, Twitter, etc) does not validate the URL that the client is trying to redirect the user to a…

If you did a line for line transliteration, did you use any of Go's concurrency features such goroutines or channels? I ask because I find that when I translate a program from Pyth…

Well done. All of my questions were answered by browsing the site. +1 for using SSL everywhere.

Can someone explain the downvotes?

The most interesting part to me is that there is no database. It had never occurred to me to use Django without one.

How can this be? Perhaps, their sample is biased? It would really be sad if 25% of Americans really have this misconception - not to mention the similarly high percentages for othe…

Java has many great features, but I find it to be too tedious for me to experiment. For example: want to read a file into a string? The Python version is open(name).read(), and I'v…

This looks pretty cool! I like the story flow. You might want to include some links that explain what the keys are, what PGP is, etc - because not everyone who lands on your site w…

This looks really powerful, and I'm glad you offer student pricing.
