I have been working on the Java driver for rethink for a bit now and I will tell you the DB seems like an awesome mix of Mongo and Riak, Mapping objects into the DB is super easy and doing datacenter aware operations is amazingly easy.

While Microsoft might be a good solution for many people (Use what get the job done), this specific article has absolutely no real reasons why you _should_ use Microsoft. The truth is if One 8-gig windows server is what he needed for his st

Akka has implementations of STM, and a few other niceties from Clojure land. Also your right Clojure can use Akka just like scala so neither is any better for it, but scala can call native clojure code too. What I have found Awesome is that

Over the years Scala has adopted some of the concurrency primitives from clojure, now I think if you compare the two there isn't much of a difference between them, however when you start to add in third party libraries I think Scala is

^^^^^^ This is the attitude I am talking about. Clearly since it's popular then there is nothing wrong with it. Thats total BS. There are tons of things wrong with it. Yes people do really cool things with the language and the run time

I have contributed patches to the PHP core, but I am not a core developer.

I do respect the work they have done to the language, and I have also spent many hours contributing back to PHP and the various projects in the PHP community, however that doesn't change the fact that the _community_ collectively has a

I do contribute to PHP. I have had a few patch submission fixing bugs here and there, but then you run into this http://www.php.net/manual/en/internals2.apiref.php This is PHP's documentation for fixin

And what I still don't see is anything saying they are taking their performance problems seriously. Still nothing saying they are fixing their documentation. Nothing addressing their hodgepodge of legacy code and mixed methods of imple

I have been working on a Java/Scala Driver for Rethink and I am now convinced that everyone who ever wants to define a wire protocol should use protocol buffers.

As a fellow happy Gnome 3 user I think the problem is no one complains about what works for them. It took a bit to get used to, but now I find all other environments lacking.

I have never met a biblical scholar who denies that Mary was a young teen. In fact to the best of my knowledge there is not a single christian denomination (Catholic, Protestant, Anglican, Orthodox,... ) that believes anything to the contra

I never like when the people who make my products are also the ones telling me if everything is ok. While the integration with 10gen is nice. I would rather a third party kept an eye on my infrastructure and told me when things were awry

I dont see that as being a breaking change. In both cases its wrong to mutate the object in the const member, Its just in C++98 no one _explicitly_ told you that. Maybe we should spell other good programming practices out for you so you can

I don't know. I have been working on a Java/Scala driver too and thinking how you could translate a scala lambda to this kind of representation It would be really cool to do db("tablename").filter( x => x.name == "foo" ) and b

I like G+ and might be one of the millions who _don't_ have a facebook account , but are quite happy with a G+ account. I don't think its tragic, I just think they are paying attention to users like me, who you know use their service.

Looks like one by one the features are being checked off to make rethink a real contender. Keep up the good work guys.

Right for that example ,not knowing the specifics, I would index on timestamp and then I could sort by timestamp which once indexed should be a relativly fast operation. I could even go one step better and make the _id a construct of

I use Shotwell to upload to Picasa which is really a thin wrapper around G+. I also still use Picasa to do any prints I might want since G+ doesn't have that as part of its interface yet.
