Why is he called a Mozilla blogger? He doesn't work for Mozilla foundation or Mozilla corp as far as I can see (nor does he claim to). His linkedin states he associates with the "M…

I still don't understand why they couldn't just introduce a new keyword that has the same meaning as a missing semicolon. Call it 'ret' or something as a 'lesser return'. Relying o…

Oh good, now it only takes 24 people to design and implement a page with 'proper' HTML 4/5 + CSS 1/2/3 + JS that is 'responsive'. I stopped reading A List Apart when it became rath…

I've met total posers that can whip up the little snippets that people have time for in an interview... and I've met great coders who crash and burn a live code session due to inte…

I tried it in FF Nightly and FF release. Using the latest Flash as far as I know.

Love how there was obviously no testing of the site on Firefox, as clicking the video pause or volume buttons hides the entire video. Pause/volume works fine on Chrome/Safari of co…

Exactly why we need Bittorrent Live to take off. P2P live video streaming can help bypass shoddy bots.

Good point, I forgot to mention that Firefox is expanding the developer tools it comes with: http://blog.mozilla.com/blog/2011/08/16/new-tools-in-mozilla... Also, it hasn't landed …

As a bunch of other people in the comments have noted, Firefox can take a huge amount of memory, the one thing they also have in common.... is the Firebug extension. It should come…

Yep, Python works great so far, I threw up a little cookbook recipe for a Pyramid app: http://docs.pylonsproject.org/projects/pyramid_cookbook/dev/... Since its fairly easy to comp…

This is because running commands is from a one-off dyno vs. the formation dyno's that have requests routed to them. See: http://devcenter.heroku.com/articles/oneoff-admin-ps

I think you missed the bit about Pylons being a 'glue' framework between other packages. Those packages have gotten quite a few new features over the years, and they continue to ge…

I agree, I'm in the North Bay, and I'd be open to helping people work through pyramid, and discussing things in person. Would a meet-up next Thursday night (the 11th) work for some…

Not quite the same, because the new version has a bunch of features added. If you'd like to stick with the camera analogy, you should think of the pylons framework more as a good l…

As mentioned below, there's no "leaving" involved. The pylons code-base has been maintained for several years with little in the way of new features, just bug fixes, some minor cle…

We had originally considered calling it p2, unfortunately that would've sort of bound the package name to sound kind of odd when someday we get to Pylons 3. Also, given the amount …

Before this, there were several efforts and results of those efforts to combine code in common and share more. First, we had an informal set of talks that resulted in a 'pipefitter…

Many people loved "from pylons import config", until it didn't work, which frequently happened anytime someone wanted to use something from a Pylons app in a command line script (w…

Depending on what you're prototyping, it could very well be done faster with Django. Django provides a bunch of 'generic views' which can make tossing up lists of objects from the …

Sorry you didn't see it, I'll try again: http://docs.pylonshq.com/faq/pylonsproject.html#why-not-just...

I'm sorry you feel that way, as the developer of Pylons, I really don't look at this as killing Pylons anymore than the lack of any new functionality has killed Pylons 1.0 in the p…

To answer your first question, it won't be nearly as easy of a transition as it was from Pylons 0.9.7 to 1.0. For some reason, the fact that Pylons 1.0 hasn't had any updates or fe…
