Well .org is pretty much the standard TLD for open source projects. While it would be "cool" to use .io it might confuse some people.
It's very common for example that projects have an .org for their Open Source software and .com or other for their business behind it (see wordpress.org vs wordpress.com)
I think Apple has the potential to change the way we handle information in both schools and hospitals (and of course private practices). Both of these are usually still using outdated Hardware/Software from ~2000 so they will have to be replaced in the near future.
I just don't know if it's good for a school to buy into a closed environment, like the one Apple provides.
I'm currently deploying to Heroku during development and will switch to a VPS again as soon as the Heroku free plan isn't sufficient anymore or I go into production.
I don't use dedicated servers. Too much work for too little reward.
My choices for the german readers here:
https://www.jiffybox.de/ - cheap scalable(!) VPS, nice UI, easy cloning of existing "boxes", backups, etc.
Well it was an anecdote but there are many people out there experiencing the same. (Google) Probably some problems with the drivers for AMD graphic cards. Even after disabling all the 3D effects, etc. the UI has a significant response delay. Same on my Asus EEE PC which features a whole different configuration.
SOPA and the people who wrote it don't give a shit about creative people making more money out of it. This is all a move organized by the agencies, corporations, etc. who used to be essential for every creative to market himself and reach his target audience. The internet made them more or less obsolete and now they're fighting against it.
There are numerous examples of "creative people" making good money out of their work on the internet, without worrying about piracy too much.
SOPA is severely limiting creative people. I mean how many of those started out editing some other youtube-video, performing a well-known song and putting it on the internet, just googling some images and throwing them together in a new way, etc...
I think there is insufficient information on the pages on what to do, since you require very specific commands and there are no hints whatsoever.
I love the idea though. If someone would be interested on working(for fun and as a learning experience) on something like this with html5 canvas and some graphics and all with a Ruby or Python back-end, tell me :D
AWS is a way better solution. Especially if combined with CloudFront, since some people are targeting outside of the US :)
I personally don't like the default theme that Octopress comes with, so after I tried rolling with Octopress I digged deeper and made a custom Jekyll Site. Awesome learning experience and dead-simple deploy
Wow. Just two days ago I wondered how the world would look like without being plastered with every kind of advertisment. I have to say I am so sick of going through my city and being bombarded with attention suckers from every direction. Same thing on the internet when I'm trying to read an article that is left aligned, makes up 20% of my monitor width and has blinking ads all around it.
I AM SICK OF IT. I would love to see a new movement to lower the amount of ads we are faced with each day and give us back our ability to concentrate on what's really important.
