If you gzip your code, then this makes such a tiny difference that it's essentially pointless.

If you don't gzip it, then you should.

Re: How to use Twitter as an error log

I'm only using it for mission critical errors, so hopefully!

There is another API method for directs, though I found it worked fine using a d .

Always fancied having one of these at home...

Yeah - you'd want the twitter account to be private for good reason. Been using this for a few days now, and it's really good - going to set it up as a matter of course from now on.

How much disk space does it take when installed?

See, I disagree. I have two 1st gen EEE pcs, and use them constantly. I'm a teacher, so I use it at work for all presenting in lessons etc as well as casual surfing at home. I've had them both quite a few months now and am glad I have them.

On the other hand, I do regularly use them through external monitors for longer stretches. Right now it's through my 32" TV, which admittedly does help!

Do you need a seperate API key for every site you want to use?

Re: Just saying BANG! could kill them

I'm thinking that if they read this story that the bang in capital might prove fatal.

Re: Writing dynamic XML sitemaps using PHP

richbradshaw — Mon, 22 Sep 2008 13:08:11 -0000

Good point - that's how I have it set up on my sites - probably should have mentioned that.

Some sites automatically guess that it should be at /sitemap.xml, so I'd recommend doing this.

Re: Google Chrome Memory Usage

richbradshaw — Thu, 18 Sep 2008 15:19:45 -0000

That's how it's designed, each tab and plugin gets it's own process. That way, if one crashes it won't crash the whole browser.

Re: Benchmarking Chrome’s V8 Javascript engine

richbradshaw — Sat, 06 Sep 2008 03:09:55 -0000

No, I was surprised too, and have run them with various different combinations. FF 3.1 has both the JIT options in about:config set to true and I restarted the machine. On these benchmarks it actually performs slightly slower than when they are set to false...

Weird - I'm going to update to the newest nightly today and try again, these benchmarks are with yesterdays nightly build.

Re: Google Chrome Memory Usage

richbradshaw — Fri, 05 Sep 2008 12:44:25 -0000

Remember that this is just on first boot, and doesn't simulate browsing at all.

Flash takes up a huge amount of memory, as does Adobe Acrobat - both use about 3 times as much as Chrome it seems, so they might be the culprits.

Edited to fix that... good thinking!

Yeah - if you allow arbitrary code to run on your server, it's not your server anymore...

Re: Are You Really Using FriendFeed, or are You a Poser?

richbradshaw — Fri, 27 Jun 2008 15:09:01 -0000

Does it really matter? Is your issue that these people ar just using FriendFeed to promote themselves without interacting personally?

I guess that if the comment fragmentation problem ever gets "solved" then this sort of thing won't happen any more as a comment here will be a comment there.

Re: louisgray.com: RSSmeme Creator Served With Legal Threat Over RSS Sharing

If you don't want content syndicated, don't offer an RSS feed.

Surely it's that straightforward!
