    Finally! I've been waiting for this for so long! It seemed so unfair that only Windows users could get the Ask.com toolbar for free...

    Their API/role is very similar to the `forms` in standard Django. I agree with you that they handle too much stuff and that saving to the database has nothing to do in a serializer…

    Migrations are about data, not schema. You don't need migrations with a "schemaless" database at the beginning, but as soon as you have data you care about, you're gonna need to en…

    For info, you can map jj to in .vrapperrc (or _vrapperrc). Maybe they added that after you tried it.

    Did you take a look at the way gittip does this ? You basically donate to a twitter handle and its owner can 'claim' the account whenever they want. No money is actually transferre…

    Awesome! A gittip.com for music. This "only catch" seems like a big one though. I guess it will get better when/if the user base grows significantly.

    It would probably be possible to make the extension use the system's installation of python if available instead of the one embedded with Sublime, but that would require some codin…

    Doesn't the 'functional API' make up for it ? `Animal = Enum('Animal', ['ant', 'bee', 'cat', 'dog'])`

    Nice! I just have one or two remarks about the UI: it is really annoying that when you click the text of an answer it closes it back, and the font is two small.

    I've been using my Nexus 4 for one week now and I obviously love it. I think the feature that impressed me the most is the 'gesture typing', which compensates for my apparent inabi…

    My bad, it's pretty much the same. I didn't know about their "money making WiFi" feature. Pretty sure they didn't have it when they launched.

    Fon ( http://corp.fon.com/en ) have been doing something similar for several years in Europe (without the karma concept).
