2) WP Better Security

3) WPScan (https://github.com/wpscanteam/wpscan)

Should be sufficient for most small/medium installation

WordPress

1) Beginner friendly

- One doesn't need to be a coder or mess with cmd to use it.

- Abundance of tutorial(text/audio/video)

- You can host it anywhere, even for free. FTP? I know that from work.

- Hosting provider even install it for you

- Expert support is all over the web

- Drupal and Joomla can't beat WordPress new user adoption, why? They're made to be customized(more developer-centric). Too much option is apparently not good for new user.

2) Features

- Need something? there's plugin for that

- People/visitors loves nice design/layout, WordPress have thousands of themes

- Secure. Attacked by some random ddos/script kiddies? Hosting provider will take care of it. Malicious code? same case.

Static site generator.

1) Beginner friendly

- Yes, at least if you're familiar with cmd.

- Most tutorial suggesting Amazon S3/CDN/cloud etc. Well those service are inaccessible to many.

- Write new post, generate, upload...complicated!

- Lets embed image/audio/video with one-click...nope!

- Lets edit old blog post... oh why art thou so hard

- Lets try it on my phone, nope!

2) Features

- I want to add Facebook comment, how? Read the manual, download that, configure...blabla. No thanks

- Lets add analytics code. Edit template and insert this javascript, save and regenerate...blabla. No thanks

Conclusion : it might be a piece of cake for you but not to most people. Remember "most user are idiot"?. If I want to have simple static blog with nice editor I would use Blogger. Dumping random text? I have pastebin for that. Static site generator sure is attractive but we are just not there yet.

I have a feeling that 'campaign' to promote static site generator to WordPress user is strikingly similar to Windows-to-Linux campaign. It just never going to happen for most user, at this rate.

> - Most tutorial suggesting Amazon S3/CDN/cloud etc. Well those service are inaccessible to many.

Because you just need to serve static content, there are more options than for Wordpress, incl. Google and Github.

> - Write new post, generate, upload...complicated!

Not at all:

    1. Create a new post: rake new_post["title"]
    2. Edit using your favorite editor
    3. Sync: rake deploy

There are tags for that, i,e, {% img /img/pic01.png %}

> - Lets edit old blog post... oh why art thou so hard

You can edit any post. They are in folders sorted by year and month.

> - Lets try it on my phone, nope!

Correct.

Conclusion: Blogging this way seems complicated, but is isn't if you are really doing it. Please try it for sake of a faster and safer Internet.

Forget any other setup you've ever used, go with this for high performance WordPress

1) Nginx [set so that request to static content to completely bypass PHP]

2) PHP-FPM

3) APC [Object & Database cache]

4) W3 Total Cache or WP Super Cache

5) Varnish

There many other high performance WordPress setup you could find out there but in term of simplicity and manageability, this is the one I fancy most. The bottleneck in this setup is RAM, not PHP, WordPress or MySQL read/write operation as I've seen in many server setup.

Adultery as a crime is still surprisingly common, but going away fast. Prosecutions for it in Western countries are extremely rare, and the laws making it illegal in 23 US states are just waiting to be challenged and overthrown. Most people seem to think that it's not the government's business to decide that all husbands and wives must remain faithful or be fined/jailed.

Adultery as a breach of contract is a little trickier, because a marriage contract is a special kind of contract that covers things that normal contracts can't. You can't sue someone for breaching their marriage vows, but you can divorce them. In the past, you needed grounds (such as adultery) to do so, but no-fault divorces are available now in every US state and several other Western countries. Whether adultery is factored into decisions about alimony depends on the jurisdiction - some do, some don't. It's a tricky issue, and relationships (particularly rocky ones) tend to be more complex than rigid rules can allow for.

On a more general point, I think that you'd have a hard time convincing a judge that lifetime sexual exclusivity is something you can sign away in any normal legal contract. Marriage gets special treatment to allow for things like that, but the trade-off is that we expect married couples to try to deal with their own issues rather than getting the courts involved immediately.

Yep. The wife broke her marriage contract. The other guy was not party to the contract and thus did nothing illegal (except in places with backward definitions of adultery). Doesn't mean he wasn't a jerk for emotionally harming his mentor.

"4Chan Accept Bitcoin"

"____ Accept Bitcoin"

Is this going to be a trend on HackerNews post?

Bitcoin needs to be plural and accept needs to be in the present tense. This makes no sense.

- OpenVZ 128MB RAM

- Ubuntu

- Nginx

- MySQL

- PHP-FPM

- APC

- Varnish -->> Redis

At 250user/second here's the result : http://imgur.com/a/hPkyZ

This is vanilla WordPress installation. There is almost no difference in load time or overall resource usage as far as I'm concerned. I've never use Redis before so thank you for this.
