I’ve been discouraged recently seeing a bunch of friends from under-represented backgrounds being rejected from PAID tech bootcamps because they didn’t pass the screener.

Forget that. We have enough problems with diversity in tech without limiting access to the education itself.

I’m going to be running a 4-week (Mon-Thurs, 5-7pm ET) virtual intensive bootcamp on Ruby, Rails, HTML, & JS starting March 1st. There won’t be a fee.

If you are (or know someone who is) from a under-represented group that has been put out of work by COVID and is exploring positions in tech, please sign up for details here: https://forms.gle/HyQ74GnSXbfQPWJk6

Additionally, at the end of the course if you pass the final project - I will send your name to recruiters at every tech company I know along with an endorsement. If you’re a company that’s interested in this, please sign up here: https://forms.gle/RhjWE23pLLUCoN4n6

I'll switch them up to ^shift-n, etc tonight Thanks for the feedback

Wouldn't that conflict with "New Incognito Window"?

Any reason not to keep the old ones as well?

The key generation is swappable. Currently I have implemented "random" and "phonetic" but this would be a neat (and easy to add) addition. I'll look into it.

should be fixed - sorry for the inconvenience, was upgrading a few things

Got it, thanks. Great project!

favicon is out now. thanks again for the suggestion

Could also start tracking when edits get created as history - i'll look into this

When you edit a paste, you create a new one - so the history thing is rough.

The favicon is a great point and I'll get one together ASAP

Thanks - glad you like it :) If you can submit a ticket on github for .pp highlighting I can get it in, by writing a highlight.js adapter for puppet config files

More related to the central topic of redis as a store for this, I think it really depends on the read per write ratio. Gathering stats like this would be very useful, and its very easy to write a SQL adapter for haste-server, since its just a set/get and optional expire

In theory in a pastebin-alike site you can have a lot of writes for the analytics. think about a pastebin page appearing on HN or other very busy site, if you want to do real time stats Redis will handle the load without issues.

The syntax highlighting will be constantly improving given changes to highlight.js (another OSS project), and a possible move to pylons. Thanks for the feedback, and I'll take a look at the Java highlighter and see what I can do to make it better. Any obvious things you'd like to see in the highlighting?
