  2. What's wrong with Slashdot? on Apogee(r) Bans Negative Reviews? · · Score: 1

    Damn, 8 hours ago I submit a story about Perl Methods being added to Zope and about the release of mod_python 2.1 and it gets rejected??

    What's wrong with Slashdot, ain't these the news for programmers? Another story by me which was also rejected was that Motif interview... and then 2 weeks pass and I finally read it on Slashdot.

    I wonder how much do the Slashdot editors understand of programming. Why not showing the names of those who reject the stories? Anyway that was the last story I've sent.

    Maybe it's possible to fight with a kind of Randall Schwartz's mod_perl-trick.

  10. Re:Some hard-earned advice on On The Subject of Web Hosting · · Score: 1

    The www.pair.com has good support (by mail and via the pair.* newsgroups) and also CGI (with many Perl-modules pre-installed), MySQL and PHP. No mod_perl though. They use FreeBSD. Blues News and Sharky Extreme are their custommers too.

    They are not clueless - shut up my account quickly when I tried to run some daemon. I had to remove it :-( the dedicated server is yet too expensive for me

    I run Pref News there - a russian-speaking e-zine devoted to Perl, Python, Java and PHP-programming. 8 people post interesting links and code snippets almost daily. We are looking for more enthusiasts.

    Well the same story happened at Slashdot,
    when a story about USA bombing Yugos was
    posted and had if am not mistaken over
    500 comments.

    The story was removed after some time.
