So... Recently, I encountered an error using Google's App Engine SDK for Python.

Admittedly, fighting through the jungles of a new programming language will always be a challenge, and although new programming languages attempt to be as easy-to-understand and usable as possible, unless you're using a product like Visual Studio - where "programming" consists of drag and drop, double click and a few lines of code - it's not going to be easy.
Google recently announced the inclusion of Go into their Google App Engine service, but porting code from one language to another will be an uphill battle. Particularly porting Python code to Go. Would that even be possible?

Both programming languages are fundamentally different, and follow different paradigms, but both can perform the same task of serving data online.
Since Go is so different to Python, it's best to start from the very beginning.
One of the basic necessities of all web servers is a static server.

Recently, I got sick of having to deal with mobile webpages when I bookmarked a link on my phone to read on a desktop computer.
The interface works well on mobile where you've got low screen estate, but on a desktop computer, mobile websites are absolute torture!!

Fortunately, sites like vimeo and youtube automatically deal with the smartphone vs desktop issue and redirect you to your correct destination, but how about Wikipedia?
Sites that refuse to give in and automatically redirect you to your desired non-mobile website are annoying.

and this Google Chrome extension seeks to solve that.
It works passively in the background; no data is transmitted when using this extension and you have pretty much nothing to lose when installing it.
And allows you to make full use of the desktop versions of websites, and not plain old crappy mobile websites..
Resolving the "304 Not Modified" Google Chrome "CSS not loading on refresh" issue
Posted: Friday, 24 May 2013
As a web developer, I am disappointed by the fact that Chrome 27 broke many features and functionality that was implemented and included in Chrome 24. That said, resolving Google Chrome's issue of not being able to reload CSS that it decides to 304 Not Modified was not an easy task..
Bigresources.com is a BAD company that is spammy in the sense that it aggregates user data from forums that use very expensive software, run legitimately and therefore are very credible - to use that very data to supply their own spammy engine with data from other websites. People are stupid to click on any bigresource.com links (both in the search results, or even directly) because where do all the ad money go to? The greedy and oblivious people who created bigresource.com, not the owners of the actual content.
Doing some very basic hacking.. It looks like iOS6 doesn't allow modificationx to the file directories of actual apps, else I would be releasing some mad hack for iOS [that I created while I was still on iOS5]. However, I still have my Second Gen iPod Touch to save my arse, still being stuck on iOS 4.2.1 has it's perks.

Is Google blocking Window Phone users from using Google maps?
Google has been in intense competition with Microsoft, both companies offer rival services and products. However, outside of lawsuits and courts, Microsoft consumers are slightly feeling the burn, with the Google maps mobile page being redirected to the Google homepage when visited by a Windows Phone.
So what exactly is going on? Well, the useragent can tell everything about a browser and when spoofed properly, can trick websites into revealing what's really going on. One simple way to spoof the useragent is to use this website: http://www.wannabrowser.com/index.php, alternatively you can spoof the useragent by changing browser settings or by using a custom browser.
Below is a basic test of spoofed useragents, to try to see what's going on and to identify the culprit.
