As far as I know, consistency in ACID just means that the database enforces any constraints that have been defined. Since redis doesn't allow constraints to be defined, doesn't that technically make it consistent, in a vacuous sor

I wonder if this can be used for redis scripting. I bet a lot of people writing node.js apps would like to be able to write redis scripts in JS.

My point was that the lack of -r doesn't really change anything; even with -r, it would still only delete initrd.img and similar, which would take until the next reboot to notice.

Even with -r, /*.* only matches files and directories in / that have a period in their name. So it would skip over /usr, /home, etc.

Ok, so how about if you can drag a representation of the car to the place on the map where you want it to go? This doesn't seem like a very difficult UI issue to me.

That looks really verbose. Also, am I correct in thinking that redis.Integer(client.Do("GET", "mykey")) would be an error, even if you've previously stored a int value in the key? If so, that seems like a trap. How
