Excellent work, @honglong0420 ! I was just beginning to wonder....

Re: Router - beego: simple & powerful Go app framework

Jeffrey 'jf' Lim — Fri, 09 Jan 2015 00:01:19 -0000

FYI, there is a problem right now with using "\w" in the regex:

./main.go:15: unknown escape sequence: w

This is on the latest version of beego, and go 1.3.3 / 1.4.

Re: A Startup Called Teespring Has Turned 10 People Into Millionaires, And It Just Raised $35 Million To Kill Excess Inventory

Jeffrey 'jf' Lim — Wed, 19 Nov 2014 02:25:35 -0000

hey yo, people, FYI you misspelt the name of the company in "Teesspring gets rid of excess inventory by creating demand before a shirt is produced." It should be a single 's', or you're gonna send people over to a damned domain squatter's site...

Yeah I'd like to know when stuff is in the clear - *like hopefully before sending?* - or when it is actually encrypted.

Have you guys checked out the ownCloud project yet? There might be a little bit of an overlap in terms of goals... http://owncloud.org/about/

Hey folks, you need to fix your "data=" value for the flash! It's 'http://www.youtube.com/v/ht... right now. Do you see the problem? It should be immediately obvious.

Re: CSRF vulnerability in Ruby on Rails 2.3.10 & 3.0.3

hey Jason, thanks for posting this! This has got to be the best document ever that I've found on this topic. One question, though: could you explain your "best of both worlds" code in a bit more detail?

So I get that you don't want to create an authentication DoS (that was, in fact, my gripe with the new fix; good to see somebody confirming this!), and you raise the exception instead. But what of the code in the 'else'? I'm assuming that the API requests would get caught here. In which case, would they even send cookies?

Re: Building a (Mobile-Web) Start-up: the 2011 way

Jeffrey 'jf' Lim — Thu, 17 Mar 2011 02:33:21 -0000

I agree. Testing before putting more resources into a feature is being fast (or, "agile") - and is probably the smartest way to do things. How having said that... while I agree with "Agile", and "Iterate" - is "Pivot" really a principle? Putting it in there would be the equivalent of saying that being "Agile", and Iterating is definitely NOT good enough - and WILL necessarily fail?!

Keep us informed about your talk, btw! Will be looking forward to it.

hey Kyle, thanks for the great introductory article. Definitely a very good intro to the nuances (I'm still looking forward to that B-tree article you're promising, btw!!! ;)) of indexing.

I have one question, though - you say in the quiz/answer box under Selectivity that "we all know now that queries on the second key of a compound index aren’t possible"? huh? Is that some kind of a mistake? Arent compound indexes meant for queries on multiple keys?

heey - I love Rock Band... :) And play the drums on RB (heh) too!!!

oh, and since u're looking for comments: dont generally like the "moving blog posts on static background" design (browsers just dont handle a good job of scrolling just yet; although I do like your picture and typeface for the background!!) - imo, the "graphics in blog posts" thing just spoils it.
