The best part is the link to captology at the end. I especially like this video. (I replace "simple" with "easy", because I think it's a better description of what he's talking about.) http://vimeo.com/2094487 The difficulty/easiness of a

I was imagining using the number of watchers and forkers as a measure of popularity. Looking at overlap based on WHO is watching/forking sounds like a better idea. Thanks for the suggestion.

I will definitely create an auto-refreshing version eventually. For now, though, I'm trying to stay focused on my original goal. As I mentioned at the top of the article, I'm trying to create an entire directory of Clojure libraries. That d

That's an interesting article. While I feel less certain of my original position, I am still skeptical about a timing attack based on the time required to compare two password strings for equality. Note that while the article deals with sim

The difficulty of programming depends a lot on your tools. I haven't used Play!, but I've had more experience with Java, Java frameworks, and Java libraries than is healthy. They tend to make programming a lot harder than it should be.

"Also, the password authentication finishes early if it detects a mismatch between the given password and the one in the database. This makes it fairly easy for an attacker to get people's passwords with a straightforward timing attack. To

Nice work. After waiting 10 minutes for an opponent, I opened a second tab and played against myself. Until your application becomes immensely popular, and this issue goes away, it would be nice to have an estimate of wait time. Just keep t

This application looks like it would make a very nice introductory example for asynchronous web programming. Is the source code available?

It looks like you started with some important points, and then let them lead you to the most unproductive possible conclusion. > The more bugs in the system, the shorter you can think ahead. Very true. Too many bugs prevent me from thin

Patrick's reference to "capacity problems" was in regards to deciding whether to clear memcached. In a large scale deployment, such as Facebook, clearing the caches could overwhelm the servers. Patrick is small-scale enough to not worry abo

What is your strategy for making money with boring crud applications? Consulting? In-house software developer? How much are you earning with this strategy?

Thanks, that makes a lot more sense. My projects so far have included well under 1000 LOC of my code per page. If and when this changes, I will watch out for this issue and consider Closure Compiler as a possible solution. I also wonder if

There are also functional koans. Same idea for some other languages. http://github.com/relevance/functional-koans Each of the following languages has its own branch: Clojure, FSharp, Haskell, and Scala.
