It's about time. I'm tired of switching virtualenvs whenever I have to deal with GAE.
raniskeet··on Mac OS 10.7 is out today, and I don’t care
then why bother posting?

How about having a webpage with recommended libs for newbies to use? Sort of like NodeJS modules page.

raniskeet··on Why yo momma won’t use Google+ (and why that thrills me to no end)

raniskeet··on I don't understand why anyone would use Node.js
"The reports of having 100k connections is great but again, any server in C or Java written correctly should be able to do the same thing..."

either he is full of shit or he doesn't know squat about package management. you can always install from source.
raniskeet··on Would you pay for Twitter?
No. The only people I see who will happily pay for twitter are the marketing people. Why would I pay for sharing what I think. They can make money on what I share through ads, though. Or sell the data.
raniskeet··on The Only Secure Password Is the One You Can’t Remember
