Yes, it's a big step in that direction. Rich said it should be easy to change JS target for another.

Also I would say "hard work" is a bad metaphor. More important parts are: 1) (as you said) "work smart" 2) "enjoy your work" and only then 3) "work hard"

From the perspective of that topic IMHO it would be better to 1) use Postresql 2) use tests that are more complex than random gets/puts by key, i.e. a few consecutive updates that modify intersecting sets of indexes.

Wicket and Tapestry are trying to do the similar thing. Not as good as Enlive though.

I reported this localization problem years ago. The best way is to take language from browser headers, like a lot of other sites do. For some reason responsible googlers were ignoring my proposal.

I'm so regretting upgrading to 11.04. There are a lot of small but annoying bugs. It has just lost my custom keyboard shortcuts. It installs privacy-questionable program and don't give any warning about that (zeitgeist package).

Good psychotherapy can heal him. I suggest "Changing Personal History" or more powerful (but harder to learn) "Core Transformation" from NLP. P.S. There is a huge amount of inefficient and even dangerous psychotherapy schools, and there is

In fact I think so too. But I suppose there are some cases for some people when the brand hardware would be better.

Thanks. BTW, server4you have a lot of horrible stories. Hetzner reviews are better, but it's important to understand that this deal hardware is of "desktop quality" and not as reliable as "standard server" one. And it is in Germany.

The bare Java is not very fine as I see after comparing it with more concise languages, like Clojure. The enterprise Java conventions are even worse, like a convention for mandatory getters/ setter. Good framework in a good language can sav

Your examples do not offer >2Gb of RAM. Some of them are not based on Xen. Their pricing is not much better too. Slicehost is not the cheapest, but it is known for the great attitude to the customers. And it is not expensive too.
