Ryan Dahl on Less is More in Node.js
- ComputerGuru 16y agoDid anyone else have a freudian moment (at least, I think that would be the term) and read that as everyone's favorite "Roald Dahl" instead? It scared me for a moment there.
- paulgb 16y agoMe too. My first thought was "wow, that guy's still alive?" I feel bad for Ryan, he probably gets that a lot.

- aaronblohowiak 16y agoThere is another Ryan (Gahl) on the list whose near-name-collision has lead some people to behave oddly.
- mkramlich 16y agoPlus "Less is More" is something I could picture Willy Wonka saying before giving out a mysterious piece of candy.
- mnemonik 16y agoAnother interesting snippet is that since Node switched out UDNS and GnuTLS for C-Ares and OpenSSL respectively, it no longer depends on any GPL or LGPL code. Everything seems to be MIT now: http://github.com/ry/node/blob/master/LICENSE http://github.com/ry/node/blob/master/LICENSE (See ~23:00 of the video)
- swah 16y agoThe slide that shows a performance comparison between Nginx, Node, Thin and Tornado says those were tested on Linux. Then he points to the Mac and complements "actually this laptop". So, do people consider MacOS equivalent to Linux for testing purposes?
