We've been using Dokku for a month or so for deploys on a project and aside from a few initial minor bumps it's made the deploying as simple as Heroku for me and taken a ton of the pain out of devops.

Deis/Dokku are great tools for developers looking to abstract away a lot of the pain of getting an app into production.

Yeah, my dokku server has been up for over a year and has only gone down completely once, due to a third-party plugin. Very satisfied so far!

EDIT: I was thinking of switching it over to Deis, but it needs a minimum of 2gb of ram, with a suggested amount of 4gb...not a great fit for my 512mb DO droplet :(

This is exactly why we sponsor Dokku: http://deis.io/deis-sponsors-dokku/ Go Dokku! :)

I'm not ruling out the possibility that their twitter was compromised, but this is looking bad quickly.

How is this not a false dichotomy? The author presents it as "We can either have IRC communities and Facebook groups where everyone agrees with each other all the time or gets banned or we can have an uncontrolled twitter where people might disagree with me in ways I can't control" Both have existed very comfortably for a significant amount of time.

I think (along with hundreds of millions of other users) that there's a lot of value behind a broadcast platform like twitter, and I've made some really important connections on it. It seems arrogant to dismiss that because it doesn't enable the exact types of communication the author wants to have (that are addressed by the other platforms he explicitly mentions).

This is a clickbait article headline for the author's blog to get more attention, if he felt this strongly about communities, conversations, and against twitter he wouldn't disable comments, and tweet about the article.

"This screwdriver is so bad at putting nails in the wall!! We should get rid of screwdrivers!"

Most of my jeans have pretty small pockets (biggest thing I've noticed with higher end denim is the pockets are much smaller than levis, etc). An iPhone 5 sized device is about the max that will fit in there, a 6 (4.7 inches) borders on too large. But those pockets are plenty large for a phone, keys, wallet in my back pocket, and a few other small items. There's a difference between "useless pockets you can't carry anything around in" and useful pockets you can't carry a tablet-sized device in.

So yeah, it's definitely an issue for both sexes. You may not buy pants that don't have large enough pockets, but I won't base my wardrobe around my phone and won't buy a phone that I can't easily fit in average sized pockets.

I always associated massive phones as being marketed towards women seeing as, at least in western culture, they're generally the demographic that is able to conveniently carry them. Most men don't have the pocket space to carry a 6 inch phone, and I've heard a lot of complaints around the new iPhone screen size (the smaller, not the 6-plus) from both genders as being too large to conveniently carry.

iOS did have a sizable requirement, although I forget how much space was required to do the install. I had many friends who had difficulty upgrading due to it.

Because I remember iOS7 had the quickest update rate ever. It slows down the Internet as well as router around places.

However to have that kind of update rate their iPhone must have been able to update, I am not so sure everyone had 5GB free space

To me this is akin to limiting all vehicles to under 70 MPH to ensure no one speeds recklessly.

The solution is to train our drivers better and start actually pulling people over for using phones while driving, not cripple the capabilities of the technology we have.

> education usually leads to working later in life as well

Do either of these explore why? My initial uninformed guess is that knowledge based fields many college grads go into are much less tied to physical fitness and thus workers are able to continue their jobs later into life when physical labor wouldn't be possible.

It was a fun game. If I really like a certain cafe and go there almost every day it was fun to have some way to show and compete for that.

The benefit was a good UX.

Because a ton of people ~5 years ago decided to do entirely separate mobile sites instead of responsive designs and we have now ended up with the mess everyone said we'd end up with.

Reach out to local high schools, most these days have some form of CS classes or after school programming activities and love having local professionals come in to teach.
