Title needs updating to add ‘in the US’ on the end.

This is awesome, I have the exact same problem. One thing though, when I go to install the extension it asks to read and change data on youtube.com, which makes sense, but also wants permission to access my browsing history. Just wondering why this is?

As it says in the post, these guys sell SaaS software, not pot.

Another great step for SpaceX. At the moment it feels like they're making progress every other week.

What sort of G loads do the astronauts in that capsule experience in an abort scenario? It shoots up much faster than a typical launch. The separation from the trunk looks fairly violent too.

Interestingly they don't show MySQL benchmarks in the readme; I suspect it might be because the MySQL implementation is pretty basic

On a similar tip for PHP, check out my library Flywheel:

It's no way near as powerful as BlitzDB but I'm slowly adding features to it.

Are there any numbers on performance vs php itself?

A scene has sprung up around music based on algorithms, called Algorave http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Algorave

Vice did an article on the subject a few months back which gives an overview of the scene (from a layman's view) http://www.vice.com/en_uk/read/algorave-is-the-future-of-dan...

Meh, another PHP library using lengthy static methods making it impossible to extend.

I'm really fed up of sites like this that hijack scrolling, it prevents you from skim reading. Instead of scanning 100% of the page's content I've just left the site after reading about 20%.

What's with the choice of Paypal over something nicer for customers like Stripe or Braintree?

I'm really hoping this redesign is why the Xbox One iPlayer app is delayed.

> This isn't why it's going to be popular for plugin development though. Sublime plugins are Python, which isn't that hard to learn.

Agreed, but Javascript has many more developers who know JS over Python. From my initial glance at the docs the learning curve for package development isn't too steep either.

I've just had play around with the beta. It looks like it's using a version of CodeMirror 4 (as it has multiple ranges). Fairly fast but it doesn't match Sublime Text just yet

Initial impressions: it's early days but this thing is just oozing for customisation. The fact it's written in JS means writing packages is pretty simple compared to Python for ST; we're going to see TONNES of addons for it. I can already think of 2-3 I'd like to build.

The one thing that really excites me is how people getting into programming could start off with a pretty basic editor and add and write packages as they hone their skills, ending with something incredible powerful and tailored to them. In fact I'd really love to see a super customised starter version for children / beginners that acts as a learning aid as well as a text editor.

No doubt there's going to be haters in the vim / emacs / ST / insert favourite editor here camp but I really hope this works out for the Github guys (and I have a feeling it will).

This is bang on. PHP devs need to stop rolling their own hashing methods.

The compatibility library to use for PHP <5.5 is Antony Ferrara's password_compat: https://github.com/ircmaxell/password_compat.

How does SPDY fit into this? Is QUIC to UDP what SPDY is to HTTP?

I'd be wary of using Statamic, at least the admin panel portion. I did a code review of it recently and it's pretty insecure, if you can disable/delete admin.php I'd recommend it.

After a quick look I found a few basic CSRF and session hijacking exploits going back several versions (including the latest). The PHP code is pretty amateur - I imagine somebody with more skill could find many many more holes.

I had this exact idea 2 years ago, named it (coincidentally) OpenMatch, and even bought the domain openmat.ch but I didn't have time to work on it.

Really happy to see this come to life, good luck.
