Sure, and that's the way it works by default: In a <textarea> Enter adds a new line - in a single-line <input> Enter submits the form.

What I'm saying is that if you have a single-line <input> field and pressing Enter doesn't submit the form, you should add some HTML/JS to ensure that Enter submits the form.

I don't know if they edited the article, but right now it says "dozens of millions of pounds", which would mean at least £24 million, or roughly $36 million.

Isn't that weekly? It'd be cool to have a daily one.

Greece and Cyprus were forced to receive "economic help".

Not AFAIK. Their alternatives were just worse.

I don't understand the need for this. Hosting 10 GB costs $1 per month on Rackspace Cloud Files and even less on Amazon S3.

Secondly, if you use a paid service you don't need to run your files through scripts to upload them, and you don't risk the files being taken down by the image host admins.

Also, while hosting non-image files on image file hosts technically might not be illegal, it still essentially is abusing a free service. Do you really want to be that guy?

The big thing that killed market fundamentalism for me was doing a stint in business consulting and seeing what the average rich person actually is: a glorified street hustler.

Capitalism isn't just about the rich people. Small business owners are capitalists, too, and most of the ones I know don't fit your description.

what would you accomplish by switching from Ruby to Python?

Simpler syntax?

CRUD apps are inherently simpler than airplanes, and unlike airplanes no one dies when your CRUD app crashes.

Sure - but if you compare, say, Zend with Laravel, you'll see that the former is hugely complex compared to the latter - and what I'm saying is that the complexity doesn't seem to make the code more maintainable later on - possibly quite the opposite.
