On: A first look at Django's new background tasks

[leonkenneth]

Very excited to see these kind of improvements. Coming from Rails to Django I've been a bit disappointed in the amount of things provided out of the box for a SaaS app (the main exception being of course the admin). Even in the ecosystem, I find packages to be a bit more messy and less production-ready than in Rails. Granted I'm fairly new to it, and the design philosophies are different

On: Simulating Website Thumbnails Using Iframes

If your target browsers support it, you can use the `sandbox` attribute and avoid supplying the `allow-top-navigation` flag to prevent this behaviour.

Granted, this won't prevent other framebusting techniques such as checking the parent before rendering.

I am not a maintainer and I just tried it briefly so I am not 100% sure of the allegations they make on their front-page, but it seems like http://gridstylesheets.org are using Workers to run their layout algorithm (Cassowary Constraint Solver) and absolute-position elements (using 3D transforms).

EDIT: Searching for "Worker" right now didn't bring any mention, but it seems it is a very recent edit (cf https://github.com/gss/gss.github.io/commit/d6a931e3629d4b5d...).

Our stack is Angular on the frontend and Node.js + MongoDB on the backend for now.

The main issue are our servers being on AWS Europe, will move some closer to the US soon :)

As you folks are based in Paris, it would be nice to have proper contact details and an imprint. Can't find either. Reference: Loi n° 2004-575 du 21 juin 2004 pour la confiance dans l'économie numérique (LCEN).

Thank you for your concern, we are not based in France though.

[spacefight → cissou]

Ah sorry, that was whois based. Anyway, my feedback on the site is: no idea who's behind it and no word about the team or the organisation/company behind it. Landing pages convert better, if this is clear.

Other than that, the offering looks great.

Edit: If I google your company, it's currently incorparated in Paris, France.

Also, picking one or two of these skills makes you stand out a bit more for potential employers looking for these particular skills.

A bit like picking a vertical in a market.

Actually it already has, see http://www.facebook.com/note.php?note_id=10150172618258920.

I use it too, but I must admit to wishing they would make it compatible with Google Authenticator or some other OATH implementation. SMS'ed text codes take way too long to be a good second-step when you're having to login everyday like I do (not to mention logging in from work where my reception is almost nil).

We're working on improving this flow.

However, if you tell us to trust a given computer when you log in, you shouldn't have to enter the code more than once.

I can't speak for the iOS app but the Android app will generate tokens.
