Looks like I've been wrong predicting Russia reaction: http://www.alertnet.org/thenews/newsdesk/LDE63A08I.htm Fortunately!!

This is quite complicated matter here in Poland. President Kaczyński was one of few our politicians who didn't wanted too many compromises with Russia. There was a tendency of not taking him seriously, as he had a harsh tongue for a politic

I guess the event discussed here is not quite usual. That's why people want to discuss it anyway.

Just try, it's equally inspiring & entertaining pro-TDD anti-ego talk, with some interesting points to history and people behind the scenes (Ward Cunningham!)

Well I was not referring to a lack of proper English grammar. I was thinking about a specific mindset which could be summarized as: "Everybody's cheating around and I will try my little not-so-smart cheats on you too. That's how everybody b

Yeah I like this guy's tech-stuff-plus-marketing style, still it would be more honest to at least mention points where Cassandra has its rough edges (and it has quite amount of them)

Unfortunately, it did sound like typical grown person there -- by mid-asian standards.

Yeah I agree guys. I wasn't complaining, rather I was pointing to the fact that history repeats itself. Just didn't bother to say it clearly. Good point with the UI option.

Unfortunately maven has a reputation in the "enterprise". So, one of my coworkers chose it as a build & configuration tool for a production system which is physically firewalled. He happily ignored fact that maven won't be able to downl

You know what.. I am supposedly skilled sysadmin, middleware admin and a DBA, so let's assume I know what I mean. And I dare to say that for many cases many tasks usually attributed to "us" can be automatized (and who's writing such layer?

Yes you are probably the only one. You can't automate hiring & managing coders, while you can automate purchasing & maintaining infrastructure.

On the contrary, the freedom is something very new and fragile in our civilization, and always people had to fight it quite hard. It's our ignorance that we take freedom for granted in western societies, and staying in this comfort zone may

There's still bunch of countries which run their affairs like that and over 20 years ago there were lots of them. I live now in a post-communist country. I was only 15 during a transition, still I remember lots from before, like martial law

Maybe I'm missing something essential, but what's the nature of "support" here? They say I can put any SIM card into the phone, so what's the deal? I'm seriously asking, as I'm located in Europe, and wanted to use dev Nexus One with any car

I didn't write anything about the lack of transactions. Well, one should examine the atomicity level provided by the engine and then there's some work needed to be done by architects & devs to ensure data consistency where it's needed.

I guess he meant: complex queries are impossible at the server side, so you have to run it in the client.

There are different things to consider depending on whether you'd create new app alone / with trusty co-founders, or you'd want to introduce it to a team using some form of agile development, or you'd want to expose NoSQL to people using ol

No. I didn't do any ad hominem until now: Dear Mr Brain Police, I did back up my point in another subthread. You were busy here with proving how silly I am so you haven't noticed. Again, please digest a feedback you're receiving (votes!) an

Yeah I bet you would say it's poor also if I said it differently, "global warming is overhyped" or whatever, probably because you just don't agree with it. Speaking of poorness of comments, I guess in this matter you can rely on how they ar

I'm afraid that in some parts of the world it will encourage corruption instead. It can also hurt developing countries where better energy sources are not available or insanely expensive. I specifically mean eastern part of the EU where car

Because I'm commenting article content, not the title. Of course the global warming is the subset of a climate change -- the subset most relevant in the article.

That's my point: mistrust to organizations who try to push certain conclusions in order to gain profits, in a similar way as it was swine flu & vaccines. That's the meaning of my comparison. Btw if you care about your taxes, what about

by kunley 17y ago
Regardless of the verbal purity and political correctness the point from the OP is: someone was trying to force the conclusion than the climate is warming more than it is. Isn't that clear?

Global warming is the new swine flu.

Yeah it's a bit sad if people really downvote like that. Anyway I'd like to have another point for the people who may think I desecrated holy shrine of Haskell. It's a quite long response and may seem like bashing but there's a conclusion a

Yeah I should have said Happstack not the language, but it isn't my point. Point is that the tutorial section I cited discouraged serious use of the stuff it's supposed to promote.
