Sadly, I really enjoy writing code for Zope. ZPT is a great way to integrate functionality to legit HTML, writing Python modules for Zope is incredibly powerful and even without them, the Python scripts and SQL functions built-in are very nice and easy to use.
I said sadly because its not nearly as well supported as that bastard child of the web, PHP. Zope gives Python an API wrapper that makes it easier to write large applications in than pure Twisted for instance, or PERL CGI on Apache even IMHO but its hard to find others who are accustomed to it so it can't be recommended here.
You really are on a crusade with those links, aren't you? You're not aware that the US violates more citizen's rights than Cuba ever could? Incarcerates more of its citizens? Denies more of its citizens access to decent health care or education?
Cuba could certainly improve, but the USA is not in a position of moral authority to dictate such improvements.
... better literacy and pretty good health care. Americans have more money and worse health care and poorer literacy. Hard to decide what makes that so wonderful.
I've only very rarely run into this scenario. Typically a glob can describe exactly what I want to the shell where clicking will miss files.
All files between two dates? easy. All files over a certain size? easy. All files matching a pattern created before a date? easy. All files with a semi-matching pattern in another directory? easy enough. Files created since the last backup stored in the wrong directory who's names match files on the NFS server? easy.
I rarely find a GUI helpful for file selection. Exception: thumbnails for photos.
This and lars_stefan's reply are right on. Its amazing how often I've worked my way through scripting a sequence of shell commands that gives me the result I want, then I either save it as a shell script for later, or execute it on a remote machine or send it to a colleague by E-mail with "run this to find out who's E-mail is clogging the pipes" or something.
As far back as 2010 iOS was losing ground to Android. By 2011 iOS was haemorrhaging users to Android.
Apple has a very backward way of marketing features. They tell you what you want, then they give you no choice. If you happen to agree with them after trying it, you join their side and yell that this is the best way and everyone should do it that way, ignoring that you're in a minority.
Its great that Apple creates a product that millions of users prefer, and I don't mind that they do. Its just wrong to claim that its the best way for everyone; its practically a niche product already, like the Mac has been for decades.
How high does your resolution have to be to make over 100 apps navigable with tiles?
Before you ask, I have 208 on my phone and quite a few more on my desktop... thank God Android doesn't make me use tiles to organize them and Linux lets me use whatever shell I want (something Windows used to do).
PS finding applications in the tiles is a horrible waste of time, as is trying to organize them.
I have quite a few clients who are surprised when I recommend Linux servers. They ask me "Isn't everyone using Windows servers?" and I have to pull out my reams of references for yet another debate.
To be fair, I don't debate the point, I just say something more like "No, trust me, Windows is not an optimal solution for your database server."
Basically you want Github hosted in Canada.
Good luck explaining this to companies ... I'm still working over people who insist on sending confidential Excel spreadsheets by E-mail.
People will find a way ... http://c2.com/cgi/wiki?Obfusca...

Interesting response: http://blog.codinghorror.com/p...
Although personally I still avoid PHP whenever possible.

Oh, did the USA get rid of its right to secret trials and requests for information on citizens without court orders?
When your government watches everything you do, you act differently. Its repression of a different kind, but its certainly there.
You really are on a crusade with those links, aren't you? You're not aware that the US violates more citizen's rights than Cuba ever could? Incarcerates more of its citizens? Denies more of its citizens access to decent health care or education?

If its about communism, why does the US not have these restrictions on China?
No countries support it except America. Why don't you let them make their own decisions in peace?
You help people a lot more by providing them with free trade than with embargoes.

We have swearing on our public broadcaster ... and nudity for that matter. Sounds plenty Canadian to me.
Ironic that we're the socialists and you're the ones with stupid rules about personal behaviour ...
Most of my fellow Canadians who've been to Cuba say its beautiful and that they really enjoyed it.
That's not remotely true. Canada does lots of business with Cuba. Only Americans are forbidden from doing business with Cuba.
Yes, just like Canada survived the world's last recession best of all the G8 because it sloughed off socialism too ...
Oh wait, no it didn't.
Get off your high horse.

I remember asking a Mac user years ago why he loved his Mac so much and he said 'because of the keyboard shortcuts, I can work so much faster'.

According to this: http://www.businessinsider.com... even when he was still around, he didn't know what users really wanted.

I don't see any of those things as improvements.

Also, we refuse to install on anything but Linux.
I think I just threw up in my mouth a little ... you seriously just suggested we should be making presentations in HTML?
I wish HTML itself would have died off years ago as a content layout format ... sadly it has critical mass.
Give me vim and ctags and I'm usually happy. That said, for Java I need an editor that has built-in function call information.
None of your facts make sense ... Python has threading, can process data very quickly and has actually evolved over its lifetime.
