The Onion Uses Django, And Why It Matters To Us : django

The Onion Tech Team talks about why they converted from Drupal to Django: "Cleaner. Much cleaner. Proper unit testing. Real reusable components across applications. An ORM rather than a just a series of functional query helpers. Tighter conventions (q: how often do people using Python argue about bracing styles? a: they don't). We can update then test a Django core change without worrying about having to take apart our applications, and if we do need to make a change, it's easy to do because there's less, much more readable code. Every member of the tech team can meaningfully contribute because there are fewer specialized or hacked together pieces. We can move more quickly on large changes because of all these reasons. And we're more stable because of all the previously expressed points."

At all. Ever. * Questioning the legitimacy of an election because the "winner" was selected by the Supreme Court is sour grapes -- questioning the legitimacy of an election because the winner (by the largest number of votes in American history) is really a Kenyan born Muslim despite all evidence to the contr

How much should I charge to develop a website? : programming
Limit scope instead of over estimating. If you're not sure of all of the elements of the projects, then quote for the elements that you know about. Everything else goes into later phases
