According to some founder stories we've heard, uneven workload is one of the major causes of drama. Colour us pre-emptive.

Very nice, and quite a bit of fun.

My only objection is with the TOS: while I can sort of understand defamatory and libelous (even these rule out most of the fun), I have issues with "inaccurate". Does not leave much wiggle room, does it?

Very nice. Simple, clean design and does what it says on the tin.

I am now also aware that there seems to have been a transient error between Hyderabad and my Linode. It's back up now though.

We named our daughter Ada after her, hoping that this would serve as a reminder of what you can achieve through curiosity and passion.

Apparently in due observance of the ALD, she just sleepwalked for the first time.

On Tue May 22 20:03:29 EEST 2012, all I get is a page with navigation and a greyish pattern background. Could not figure out what to do with it. This is with Chrome and FF on a Mac.

Seems fairly usable atm. A few observations: there is an XSS vulnerability as you probably learned by now. Also, there was a moment when someone was submitting content and it appeared under my nick "bpfh".

Other than that, kudos for a simple well-functioning chat.

This is my weekend project, scratching a personal itch and addressing some of the complexity in HR tools I'm used to seeing.

The stack consists of Rails, MongoDB and nginx, and represents my first public-facing service with that stack. Along the way I wrote a JQuery plugin for managing a dynamic number of fields in a fieldset which I might throw on GitHub if there's interest.

Just implemented this change, and I find it much improved. Thanks.

Now the next thing would be to figure out appropriate network metrics to monitor the PSN server. I suppose portscanning Sony would be considered a bad idea though.

Good question. That's why I threw in the Haven't Tried option, but you might be right.

Curious coindidence – I was thinking about this the other day, wading through Gibson's _Neuromancer_. The novel, just like earlier Stephenson fiction, paints a not-too-distant future entirely dominated by "Nipponese" brands and cultural artefacts. _Neuromancer_ was published in 1984. A lot has changed ever since.
