I wonder if he gave Rubinius a go before switching to C++. IANAGD, but i'm guessing some of it's features would benefit game engines: Tunable GC, profiling ( http://rubini.us/doc/en/tools/profiler/ ), JIT/LLVM. It wouldn't solve the C exten

AFAIK there's no way to initiate TLS over a SPDY stream (i guess SPDY could be extended to add TLS handshake control frames, but that's downright crazy) which would mean that the third diagram is misleading. End to end SSL would not be poss

I recently switched from screen to tmux; this is the killer feature for me. We use tmux to pair program with remote employees, and this allows us to stay in sync automatically. With screen, we constantly had to tell the other pair which win

On a simmilar note, HAProxy can proxy http traffic or just tcp traffic, which you can use to cluster your service and provide a little redundancy. http://haproxy.1wt.eu/

Twitter has adopted open standards, they use oAuth. There's nothing wrong with home grown APIs, but I think APIs that ignore open standards will be a problem as services become increasingly interdependent.

My point is that having a public accessible API or docs are no longer enough, you need to adopt open standards whenever possible. Adopting open standards ensures that the end user is free and able to move their data in and out of your servi

Before unite, I thought of opera as an irrelevant company that did good work. now I just see them as irrelevant. One point that Chris didn't make in his post is that the problem they identified as the reason for building Unite (or so they s

I'm not sure the author understands the benefit of OAuth. here's an analogy: First, let's assume that the end user uses the same username/password combination for every website, which is quite common. Also, assume that twitter and your serv

I think Matt chose the that theme for the same reason the author chose to play the Zed card -- it was sure to make a splash. I have never met Matt, but I know him through several open source projects, and I have watched him answer question

I think God is useful for "prototyping" an app environment. It's got a nice DSL and b/c it's ruby, it's turing complete. It's great for stage servers where flexibility and productivity are more important than a couple nines of uptime. Monit

It's everything it claims to be, and really does make things easier. I can't recommend it enough. But be carful: using blueprint as they recommend litters your markup with pseudo "inline style" classes. If you are a stickler for clean html/

Conclusion... need a quick and dirty CRUD app for internal purposes that just has to be good enough? ASP.NET is fine... you'll barely have to write any code at all. Building a public-facing app that needs to be slick and polished? If you'r

Looking back, I'm glad that ASP.net sucked so hard. If ASP.net were half-way decent, I probably would have fallen into the void of programmers who continue to use a mediocre tool, without ever trying anything new, because it "works good eno
