More home improvements
I’ve had an offline Christmas, not entirely through choice (broadband at my Dad’s new place in rural France isn’t working yet) but welcome. I did have my laptop with me, and I’m using Bazaar for version control so being offline isn’t a barrier to checking in code. I’ve just rolled out a bunch of new features that I put together over the past few days.
[... 514 words]DjangoID. Django-based OpenID server for hosting your own (or someone else’s) identity.
Groovy 1.0 is done. They finally got to 1.0!
Browser Cache Usage—Exposed! Includes real numbers for browser cache usage on some of Yahoo!’s most popular pages.
OpenID for non-SuperUsers. Sam Ruby explains the key concepts of OpenID that many first-time users tend to miss.
Why don't we have a .bank or .bank.country_code TLD that's regulated by the same people that regulate the banks themselves?
The Dojo Offline Toolkit. The Dojo Offline Toolkit will be a small, cross-platform, generic download that enables web applications to work offline.
Writing a Jokosher extension. I like the way API calls are made through an API object passed to the extension’s startup function.
MoneySavingExpert. Don’t let the cheesy design fool you; this site actually has some really useful (apparently trustworthy) UK personal finance advice.
The server understood the request, but is refusing to fulfill it because you're coming from digg.com and the proprieter of this system is frankly terrified by you people.
ephemeral profiles (cuz losing passwords is common amongst teens). Lost your password? Create a new profile; you had too many friends you didn’t know anyway.
