Simply put, SuPragma is a tool that programmatically scans your organization with the goal of finding issues that can lead to problems or inconsistencies with culture health and style. Some issues can even be automatically fixed for you!

Make sure to use strong SSL certs, otherwise how do I know its your website? There better be a little green lock in the upper left corner of my browser ;)
Go is great, its open source. I wish Hacker News open sourced their code so that we knew what they are doing. Scared of having folks game the system? Why not have the community make it the best algorithm possible. Why keep pushing YC all the time? Do they not have enough already? Painters and hackers! ha!

Facebook censors so much and swaps out links. I can't even post a link to https://scientificamerica.com. Their SSL cert is weak and should not be trusted. It is swapped out for phishing scams.

I'm happy for the gay community. At least the Supreme Court is not fully corrupted.

I didn't know how corrupt YC was until now. How much is your soul worth?

How can mankind, overnight stop exponential (that famous hockey stick everyone likes to see) oxygen growth? Very suspicious. There are some pretty bad sources of information out there about oxygen over time. Here is one I trust: http://dk6qunh1hkthr.cloudfront.net/content/nips/25/5/272/F1...
Containers in themselves offer little additional value to virtual machines. Don't switch over just because of the hype. Evaluate it yourself! (I personally LOVE vagrant!)
Re:Amazon Allowance on Saturday June 13, 2015 @08:55PM (#9713388)
I don't understand how Amazon can afford to maintain so many projects given their revenue is so low (https://finance.yahoo.com/q/is?s=AMZN&annual). Someone care to explain?

Yes. Nothing last forever.

Services like Airbnb and Uber will be become commodities. There will be some service like Kayak or Expedia to find you the lowest fare in the future. These companies will have to offer an API or be undercut by competitive services. Uber and these other services better grab as much money as they can right now.

It is all on the release notes: https://github.com/AppScale/appscale/blob/master/RELEASE

We currently support 1.8.0 GAE features but we do add patches that are a part of more current GAE releases if they are bug fixes.

Re:Open Source Implementation of Google App Engine on Wednesday July 23, 2014 @02:42PM (#8076148)
We were initially funded by Google with a grant to start the project back in 2009 at UC Santa Barbara. Follow on funding came from IBM research, and then larger grants from the NSF and NIH. In 2012 the project spun out of the university and was commercialized. AppScale Systems is now a Cloud Technology Partner with Google.

Santa Barbara, CA. AppScale Systems. We work on the open source implementation of Google App Engine. http://www.appscale.com/careers
I've been working on AppScale (https://github.com/AppScale/appscale), the open source implementation of GAE, which implements the datastore API, along with most of the other GAE APIs. Your app is portable to any other hosting environment if the need ever comes.
