I really don't understand most people. Why would you ever DDoS a CSS library's website?

human_erroron Why I switched to Pylons after using Django for six months

> I dont believe that , since you can do your own queries with Django , even in RAW sql.

Believe what you want to believe but we have experienced the same thing just couple of months ago and have ditched it completely. Besides if I'm going to write raw SQL then why would I want to use Django's ORM? That would be another layer, too much bureaucracy.

> Django is not a CMS with plugins.

It's just one step away from CMS with plugins. I have doubts about it being a "MVC" framework.

IMHO, Git-Tower is way better than SourceTree.

human_erroron Python 3.3.0 released

I think in Python's case there was really no compelling reason to burn the bridges between 2 and 3. Burning the bridges should be done when something will be significantly improved.

human_erroron WebGL Car Viewer

What do you mean by Apple won't have a choice but to adopt WebGL? I can run WebGL on Safari without any problems.

human_erroron Ubuntu Will Now Have Amazon Ads Pre-Installed

Not the same thing. Firefox doesn't send my local searches to Google. What Ubuntu does is a privacy breach.

human_erroron Privacy restrictions on Facebook posts are visible to users

You don't need best of the best to modify, most likely, one line of code. I'm pretty sure anyone who can code would modify it correctly. You need the best of the best who won't do this sort of issue in the first place.

human_erroron Just Scroll

Safari 5.1 here. I viewed the site without any problems.

human_erroron Web2py 2.0 is out

When someone says "unpythonic", I always think that they ran out of sensible arguments and started to bitch about the program. When I say "program", I'm not particularly addressing web2py (I have never used it).

human_erroron Diaspora is now on GitHub

I'm quite confident that I've seen it on GitHub before. It may sound harsh but no one will ever use it.

human_erroron Diaspora’s (YC S12) Next Act: Social Remixing Site Makr.io

What's the point of this? Why would you even write an article on this?

human_erroron Facebook has more than 83 million 'fake' users

I believe the number is way higher than 83 million. I have 5 facebook accounts that I use most of them for testing apps.

The entire post looks like an advertisement.

human_erroron Captchas Are Becoming Ridiculous

Or how about short stories, something like; "Brian came home very late. He couldn't find Mr. Hat. While he was thinking where his cat might be, he noticed the window was wide opened." What's the name of the cat?

I don't know if it's hard or easy to guess it algorithmically.

I'd like to know what that "etc." stands for.

Some people prefer BitBucket because it offers free private repos.

human_erroron Everybody Hates Firefox Updates

I'm still trying to figure out why the "add-ons" you install appear in "extensions" window and what's the difference between an extension and an addon. I can search and install Firebug but can disable/remove it from extension section.

human_erroron Show HN: A new way to view IAmA's on Reddit

Paging is buggy.

human_erroron Parsing huge XML files with Go

It happens sometimes. I had written a multithreaded parser in C++ to parse around 800MB per day so another team could build up the rest of the project based on the data. Someone had thought it'd be a better idea to store all fetched data in XML.

human_erroron The new Git-scm.com

Something is strange. If you go to German version of the book and click "Los geht's", then click "next" and all you see is 500 Internal Server Error. I've checked the French and Dutch version as well, but they don't have that problem. I guess ' creates the problem.

human_erroron Show HN: Weekend project - Gitscore

I've the same problem with Safari. I don't see why I need to unblock to see the scores. This is bad design. I'll just pass.

human_erroron Django is now (officially) on GitHub

> many python projects avoided github initially because github was powered by ruby

This doesn't make any sense. Don't tell me that there are C# developers who don't use Google because they use Java.

GitHub makes very easy to collaborate to projects. I think that what makes them different than others such as BitBucket.

human_erroron A Better HN: Aligned

It's hard to read the usernames.

human_erroron Try right clicking GitHub's logo

Maybe I just want to right-click and open the homepage in new tab. With this feature, I can't do this.

human_erroron PHP: A fractal of bad design

No, not all of us. I've never coded anything with PHP. I don't even know how to write hello world with it.

human_erroron Dropbox adds drag and drop

It doesn't work on Safari, I guess. This is the message I get when I visit dropmocks.com:

"Sorry, our uploader doesn't yet work on your browser (which doesn't support drag and drop file uploads)"
