All our production websites were down for around 10 minutes. Not sure function failover is turned on for these websites.

Artifact did it too (which is no longer being worked on though).

I've been a happy user of Fastmail for over 2 years (and will continue to be), but their spam/scam detection has been worse than Gmail.

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.

Disclaimer: I am not a cryptographic expert.

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.

It didn't work for me (TypeError: 'NoneType' object is not iterable), I opened an issue on github.
