Browsers try their best to protect users from the evils of the internet, but some times their eager kills good use cases all the same. The “mixed content warning” that IE and Firefox throws when you reference a non-SSL asset from an SSL page is one of those cases. The problem is that browsers don’t like caching SSL content. So when you have an image or a style sheet on SSL, it’ll generally only be ...

If you click through and read the comments, lots of commenters provide good reasons for this warning. Up until reading those, I thought it was just bullshit from the browser. Turns out it's pretty important. MITM ftl.

Ta-da List just moved to three exciting platforms: Rails 2.2, Phusion Passenger, Amazon EC2. This is an important milestone for 37signals. As proponents of simplicity, we really felt the difference the latter two technologies made for server provisioning and deployment. As we grow more comfortable with these services, we’ll be moving other applications this way and writing more about the results. Phusion Passenger After we comissioned Phusion to add global queueing to Passenger, we felt ...

A surprising number of applications seem to involve storing a tree of similar items out to some arbitrary depth: managers and employees, assemblies and parts, categories for organizing things. Rails doesn't have any native ability to handle a tree structure - but, as with many other things, plugins fill the gap. And even though this requirement has been around for ages, there's still active development in the plugin world as people try to invent a ...

Our customers or prospective customers often ask us how we do a performance audit (it's our most popular service). I thought I should write a blog post that will both answer their question, so I can just reply "read all about it at this URL" and share our methodology with readers a little bit. This fits well with our philosophy of openness. It also shocks people sometimes -- "you're giving away the golden goose!" Not ...

One year ago, I discovered that I had contracted Type 1 Diabetes. I was 36 at that point and it's relatively rare for someone of my age to suddenly get Type 1 Diabetes - indeed they used to call this form of diabetes "juvenile diabetes", because it mostly occurs in children. So it was quite a shock to discover that I had it! Immediately I looked to the Web to find out all I could ...

Med 2.0 is certainly a very interesting and profitable field. Like i said earlier, we can certainly have med widgets and gadgets. Some sensors inserted in the body that constantly track various parameters like blood, heart, infections etc and wireless connect to a handheld device that instantly notifies when u eat too many calories, when u get infected etc. It can also suggest instant medication, show med shops in the vicinity on a google map, connect u to ppl having similar problems who can comment on your status....the possibilities are endless. Sadly no one is exploring!

Ruby's most popular Web application framework, Ruby on Rails, takes another giant step today with the release of Rails 2.2! It follows on just five months after Rails 2.1, but offers even more significant improvements, particularly in the areas of compatibility, internationalization, and documentation. Read David Heinemeier Hansson's release post for a quick overview. Ruby Inside's sister site, Rails Inside, was launched alongside Rails 2.1 in June, and would, you'd think, be the ideal place ...

This watch mixes three things I love: a nice size, a great brand, and a good movement. This odd digital watch is actually being sold by Seiko right now for about $898 direct from Japan and it’s actually totally worth it. This is a nice watch. It uses a 6R15 movement with hacking and it’s a hefty 43mm wide. You’ve even got a see-through back. I’m in love. It’s available at SeiyaJapan but maybe Serkan ...

From the UK, comes a case of the boy who wanted to smell too good.Ignoring the warnings of using the deodorant spray in a small, confined space, the boy generously used a can of aerosol deodorant. This led to excessive inhalation of the solvents from the can, causing a cardiac arrhythmia.Here's a list of some of the chemicals the deodorant contains, as well as the related health effects.topics: toxins, arrhythmia
