My least favorite feature is block scoping combined with the := operator. For example, this works: var x Foo x, err := doSomething() if err != nil { ... } this does not: var x Foo if x, err := doSomething(); err != ni

Care to contribute some of those to Revel? :) Out of curiosity, why do you prefer Mustache to Go templates? They seem extremely similar, with Go templates being slightly more powerful due to easy-to-add template funcs. Both are essentiall

It looks like he takes the same approach as Revel. From the comments: // Devweb is a simple environment for developing a web server. // It runs its own web server on the given address and proxies // all requests to the http s

AGREED! Will certainly repost when it gets a little further along.

Yep, having the hot-compile functionality was a major point of this. Here is a description of how it works: http://robfig.github.com/revel/manual/howrevelworks.html Basically: In development mode, it runs a proxy (called the "harness") t

Makes sense, thanks. (I've never used the "rev" unix command before, so I didn't think much of it)

Ah, this is because the app uses go-sqlite3, which you haven't gotten in your local repo yet. I need to fix the command line to download all dependencies first. You can fix it manually with: go get github.com/mattn/go-sqlite3 Also

Apologies -- the right command is now: bin/rev run github.com/robfig/revel/samples/booking Changed in last two commits and I was a laggard in updating the site. Updating now, thanks.

I am definitely looking to develop a good story for ORM. However, I don't think it has to be in the very core of the framework -- allowing people to plug a different one (or not use one at all) is important. I chose Play! (1.x) because it

I did not package an "official" ORM with Revel because I did not feel like there was a clear choice yet. (And making an ORM is too big a challenge to bite off in addition :) I think that GORP is the current leader ( https://github.com/coope

I'm working on adding a "rev package" command to the command-line tool. It will create a zip file of the app and revel source directories, along with a script to run the app. It needs the source directories since templates and assets are k

Based on that reasoning, seems like IE should fall into that category too.

Google already classifies sites as porn or not-porn. They could make a simple API or data file available and the browsers could use it.

I can't help feeling sorry for all these poor people that use Emacs with their control key in the wrong spot (bottom left). Remap Control to Caps Lock and there are no ergo issues at all.

So they are betting that enterprises are going to start using Node.js and Mongo for their applications? I remain skeptical.

I could be mistaken, but part of the assumption here seems to be that everyone is equally good at their job. It seems far better to have the incredible teachers leveraged as far as possible (to teach the most number of students while still

Really impressive!! Looks like it's done entirely in HTML/CSS/Coffeescript. I have to admit surprise that they would put so much effort into something that is not their product, though.

Can anyone explain what use-case this technique enables that is not served by cookie tracking? Or is the point that disabling cookies is not sufficient to avoid being tracked? Everyone has cookies enabled (or many sites don't work), so if

Play! uses Apache HttpClient under the covers. I haven't tried it experimentally, but the documentation explicitly says that it's streaming.

I was wondering the same thing. Clearly Google et al has some success with parallel computation without giving up determinism. Thinking about how the cloud model (collaborating services via RPC) maps to a single machine -- I guess that loo

I think this is just supply-demand of the current labor market. There are enough lawyers to go around, but not even close to enough good developers. I think it will continue to be that way for a long time

What is the connection between evented and streaming? It seems like a thread-per-request server would have to do exactly the same thing (except, they would not have to worry about giving back their event loop thread).

In response to your 2nd and 4th points: - We have had a fine experience not using Play's ORM support at all -- we have a Plugin that handles transactions for us, and we use non-Play-integrated persistence. It still works great. - All of th

My approach to #3 in gmail is to have filters that auto-archive, and then use multiple inboxes to show them under my main inbox email.
