Create the infrastructure manually and then use Cloudformer tool to generate the template based on the already created infrastructure. You can then edit the generated template to make it more maintainable and you have a nice reusable template.

I can't say how this turns out, but it makes me happy to see the debate this is generating. A lot of people who have never heard of net neutrality are now hearing and thinking about it. That's a definite positive for India and and open internet.

This is deception. Pure and simple. There are many different and ethical ways of providing connectivity to the poor but not at the cost of losing net neutrality.

Absolutely not. This adversely affects the budding start up industry in India. If Zuckerberg really wants to help poor Indians, then provide access to the entire internet and let them figure out which service helps them out best.
As a compromise, free access to only non-commercial non-profit entities/websites that offer beneficial information is acceptable although not ideal.

Not a big fan of all the marketing language on the home page. But it does get better on the individual IDE pages. You see the download link right away and you can scroll down if you need more info.

This is very nice. More engrossing than most games I play. Instead of starting over every time I lose, I would prefer if I was penalized and allowed to continue playing. For instance, if I lose round 5, then I will also lose all the points from round 4 and continue playing from round 4 instead. It's just something that I thought would make it more interesting and playable for me.

I believe both sides have valid arguments depending on who you think the threat is. If you expect complete control over your data then you would want the system to be open source and transparent. To protect an average smartphone user from malicious apps, a closed and curated system like Apple's appstore makes sense.

If I'm using my fingerprint to protect something, it must be way more valuable than the fingerprint itself. It's like using a key made of gold to protect a box full of rocks.

Note: I have never come across such sizes for salt and block though. I may be totally off.

I am working on the assumption that the first few chars could be a randomly generated salt and the rest is equal sized blocks of encrypted content. The random salt results in a different encoding each time.
This is what I have so far and it seems to fit the original encoded message too.
The salt is the first 29 chars.
Each encrypted block is 59 chars.
So for the QBFs : 29 + 6x59
For the original message : 29 + 5x59

383 is prime. So it can't be a substitution cipher.

This would be very useful for those who work on a netbook or a thin client. Besides, people do use Google Docs even though they have a full fledged document editing software on their machines.

This is a good initiative but please call it something else.

In landscape mode, I would prefer to have the swiping area on the right/left side of the screen rather than at the center bottom (I use my dell streak mostly in landscape). It would be easier to reach as I would only be using my thumb for input.
Would be great if this could be made an option in the settings.

No one language can keep me happy for a long time. So my happiness language changes every year.
GTD - Python (Also my happiness language)
Bread and butter - Java (although that might change too given the recent developments)
