How did you do the reddit quote thing? Custom made or is there a website that formats it for you?

Interesting, thought it looked pretty cool. Something to keep in mind for future projects. :)


Looking at the source, its an iframe for this site: //www.redditmedia.com/r/angularjs/comments/2f7ziz/i_quit_my_job_to_teach_you_how_to_launch_a_full/ckbhk0m?embed=true&context=0&depth=1&showedits=true&created=2015-05-04T04:25:24.511Z&showmore=false


Probably depends on which coast youre in. West coast and California is probably Vietnamese and east coast and new York is Korean.


Around D.C. it's a mix (same with Barbers)

It helps to have the 3rd highest concentration of Koreans in the U.S. and a large Vietnamese population in Northern Virginia. Go down one street and there's nothing but Vietnamese nail and hair businesses. Go down another and you'll find Koreans.


Create an LLC and elect to file as S-corp status for tax purposes. You pay yourself a fair salary (so that IRS will be content) and the rest can be considered pass through income taxed only at your income bracket.

For example, say you earned 300k last year. A fair salary for a developer might be 70k. You pay income tax and self employment tax on the 70k but only income tax on the remaining 230k.

I am not your lawyer or accountant so take the above advice with caution.


Take a look at System 76: https://www.system76.com/laptops/model/galu1

The specs are very well chosen for most developer users at a very reasonable price. From your requirements, I believe the only thing missing is native VGA support, which I'm sure you can easily fix with a simple adapter.


I'm really interested in these but I've heard reports on flaky casings made of cheap and thin plastic. Do you have experience with these yourself and if so can you share your findings?


We've bought several over the last five years or so. The cases have always been perfectly adequate -- not single-billet aluminum, but you're not paying MacBook prices, either.

They ship with Ubuntu and are generally comfortable with Debian.


Yeah the VGA thing is optional, but our laptops do need some output, that is compatible to our beamers... :/ Buying an adapter is not the problem :D!


Post was mostly likely made by someone making spammy and useless sites which was banned from Google Adsense and is now pissed that he has no more income.


How well do the macbooks run Ubuntu? Last time I looked into it, there were still some issues with the 2013 macbook air running the latest Ubuntu 13.10


Matt Cutts browses this site. Maybe he knows the reason why?



I believe Flask actually has the advantage in the ORM since you aren't tied to Django's strictly RDBMS structure and Flask will allow you to easily use NoSQL solutions if that's your thing. Flask with SQLAlchemy is just as powerful as Django's ORM.

Flask does have an admin plugin but it's nowhere near as good, polished, or documented as Django's.

Django does have the advantage of a bigger mind share, users and ecosystems.


> Flask with SQLAlchemy is just as powerful as Django's ORM.

sqlalchemy is more powerful than django orm.

easy there. you can as well use nosql with django (orm is useless then, by definition) and you are in the same exact situation as using nosql engines with flask. if you get rid of the orm in django (which is doable), you are just bringing your own batteries here, just as you are bringing them to flask.


"Flask will allow you to easily use NoSQL solutions if that's your thing"

Agreed - we normally use flask alongside psycopg2 and postgres but recently we've been using it with NEO4J for fun

Are those two programs made by different people? I thought one was just the paid version of the free one.


Adblock Plus - company in question.

AdBlock - Donationware. They also run this http://chromeadblock.com/catblock/download/ It replaces ads with pictures of cats. Hilarious


They are different, but can anyone be blamed for confusing the two?


Adblock just very noisly requests a donation, it doesn't require you to actually pay. Adblock plus does not do either.


Yes.


Start a site documenting them and don't rely on Wikipedia.


And while it's all fine and well to not depend on Wikipedia... when the majority of people treat it like the word of god when it comes to "facts", it's important to work to help make it as accurate as possible.


Documenting what though? The sites are gone. I'm wondering if anyone knows of any pre-internet Archive efforts to capture large portions of the known web at the time? Finding something like that would probably the best bet I would guess.

Like guys who retained all of the early Usenet traffic, or mirrored old FTP/Gopher sites.
