Welcome but the guy who invented it, Per Wendel and those who help him maintain it are the ones who deserve the credit. If you're into Lambda's (I'm not yet but trying to bend my mind to want to use them), he's working o

Agreed, Java, JDBC, HTML/CSS/JavaScript - this is my preferred stack, simple, linear, understandable, maintainable.

One of the problems with application servers is like well, port separation, process isolation, when a change to the context is desired but it might affect all the apps you have to be very careful. Having your web app be its _own_ app is hug

Even simpler, Spark Java. You can't make REST on any platform or in any language I've tried any easier and still be building on a solid foundation.

That's because, after getting into the air you will be bought and then you will find out that you wish you had started with solid technologies and architectures.

Scala, Lisp, Haskell, Smalltalk do not register in my puny brain. C, C++, C# (which I don't EVER do any more), Java, those resonate and make sense to me. Bash and Python too for scripting.

Red wine, extra virgin olive oil and nuts are supremely good for you. Do not believe the disparaging stories showing up on HN today.

Good point, except, would that rule show symmetry with other planetary events on the billions of billions scale?

There is a large company who is known for their printers. Search Google for them, odds are they make whole lines that will work just fine with any Linux made in the past 7 or 8 years. No driver disk needed probably. Printing, scanning and f

Back when I used to dual boot, 2007, I would try playing UT2004 on Windows then on Ubuntu, it was always faster on Ubuntu. I even tried the Windows version on Wine on Ubuntu and it was faster. That's perception but a gamer's perce

It's clear from reading the comments people are making about older people shows that being technical does not aid one's level of wisdom.

Please refrain from making comments about <so and so> people over <so and so> age. If someone is not technical or simply resistant to constant change, that is a reflection of their personality or interest mostly, not their age.

OK, I recalled it being a different looking site about three years ago then I saw Pivotal at the bottom of the page so I'm still not sure if VMware sold the Spring business or what. The whois reports for vmware.com and spring.io look n

I really wanted to check out their web site but it's on a CIDR banned in my firewall due to heavy spammer activity: http://www.tcpiputils.com/browse/ip-address/198.27.81.179

I'm not clear, just did a ton of Googling and I think maybe spring.io is related to the Spring Framework at VMware. That would mean it's dependency injection.

I suppose but SparkJava has as its core philosophy, build as a runnable jar from the start which is in line with what the article was discussing in its referential prohibition of conventional app server approaches. edit: Further to the poin

Relying on just SBO is useless, agreed. I think using it in addition so solid security reduces the attack surface which aids reduced attempts and ups the level of difficulty required to complete a successful attack. http://www.th
