Actually, I think it's terrible in it's current state. I made a second account to try some heroes/practice heroes on. Recently they changed the number of reports to four per week, but I almost need to report a person per match for either feeding, afking or really bad language. I realize this is in the 'normal' bracket, which is still pretty terrible.
You might be consistently impressed, lately I have been consistently disappointed by the Dota 2 community.

Do you have any numbers to back that up? This site (http://www.nfia-india.com/why_english_speaking_society.html) says 62% vs 91% in favor of the Netherlands.
edit: seeing this guys profile/comments in this thread it's an obvious troll.

A recent writeup (not by me).
Would not recommend CodeIgniter, last time (~1 year ago) I used it it was a pain to get a proper ORM working with it.

Django by default uses the PBKDF2 algorithm, which is better than nothing/md5/no salt sha1.
I'd use bcrypt or scrypt by default, better be safe than sorry.

Great post and most of these steps are really helpful.
The only thing I'm not too sure about is step 11, discouraging of IDEs. I do agree with your point that one should not depend on a IDE. However, IDEs can give you autocompletion, easy refactoring, finding references etcetera. Personally, I find some of these features invaluable.
