Meh, test are great in so far as they can help you not break things if you upgrade the framework, or langauge in the future. But other than that I have to agree with Kent Beck's sentiment of "I get paid for code that works, not for tests".

If I had started out trying to learn Django using TDD as in this tutorial:
http://chimera.labs.oreilly.com/books/1234000000754/index.ht...
I never would have learned Django. I would have given up with the ridiculous slow progress of results and functionality.
How? It so much cleaner and simpler than Apache. I don't get this sentiment.
More accurately stated:
Money as we know it depends on the authority of the state for credibility, with central banks typically manipulating its price and/or quantity.
Which is why Cryptocurrency is attractive in the first place.
Am I the only one concerned with this? I mean it's great that they were able to do this, but I would like some comprehensive studies by various institutions and universities to come to a consensus that this wouldn't have any long-term health side effects.

Guess how easily you can get any drug.....even in prisons. If we can't keep drugs out of prison then what chance is there to keep it out of the general public?
The war on drugs is over. Drugs won. Legalize them all, provide accurate labeling, and tax it. There is nothing left to "debate".
Higher Education in it is current form has limited time left. Universities will have to evolve or die. Student loan debt is completely out of control and University's aren't preparing kids for real jobs.
This is correct. As long as the risk isn't too high then companies will just take the risk and accept a hack as the "cost of doing business". Much like Goldman Sachs expects they will get fined by Governments, but they don't care because the money they make far outweighs the fines imposed.

>No technical reason these two need to be hosted together
Sound advice. To me it sounds like maybe the OP wants both on the same VPS, which is a horrible idea. Even if you found one provider, still you should have separate VPS's for the email and Django app.
Even if you do have them with the same company you should have them installed on separate VPS. Sounds like OP wants it all on one server, which I would advise against.
This is exactly correct. It is "Hey potential employer, check out my Medium articles."
Sure you could host it yourself, you will probably pay a monthly fee for this. Also people you are marketing to would most likely go "Oh hey, this guy is Medium, I have been on that site before." Opposed to "Oh this guy is on some blog platform I have never heard of."
>it works superbly with some Arch Linux on it.
These 2 statements contradict each other. Either you reinstall the OS (OK maybe you didn't technically REinstall, but most people would call installing a different OS "reinstalling the OS") or you still running the default OS.
