If you're using the new G1 collector which ships in JDK 7, the only configuration parameters you really need to care about are the minimum and maximum heap sizes (-Xms and -Xmx) and perhaps the latency target (-XX:MaxGCPauseMillis). So

For anyone interested in how it will be implemented, see ko1's presentation slides from Euruko 2013. http://euruko2013.org/speakers/presentations/toward_more_eff...

Small steps. Just using some simple functional constructs like `map` and `filter` will do wonders for your code. You don't have to start writing everything in a purely functional manner to benefit from it.

The newer link doesn't mention them using Rails anymore. It's probably still in use in some internal apps, but the main twitter.com site should be 100% Scala now.

Does anyone have experience with using TypeScript with existing libraries like Angular.js? I know that there are definition files for it [1] (and many other popular libraries), but unfortunately I haven't had the time to check out thei

There is a simple todo app example on the angularjs homepage. It's one of the first examples there.

Good standards stem from real-world experience. It's best to implement something yourself (even better if there are other competing implementations), and then seek standardization.

It's an internal, automatically generated class. No programmer is ever going to use it.

The Live Edit functionality is provided by a plugin, so it should work in PyCharm as well. I know that it works in RubyMine.

ES6 is very important for them. For example, classes and modules in Typescript are essentially lifted directly from ES6, and they aim to remain compatible with ES6 as it evolves.

I can share much of the thoughts regarding RubyMine (a Ruby IDE by JetBrains). While it is not the best text editor out there (I used to use Emacs for Ruby stuff), the IDE features are great and (for me) outweight some of the niceties that

Either Last-Modified or Etag is sufficient. Most servers will add both, though. Edit: The difference is that Last-Modified allows clients to use a heuristic to determine if the response should be cached for a certain duration (unless explic

One such tool is Swagger [1]. The nice thing about it is that it can automatically write you a client as well. There are client implementations for many programming languages, such as Java, Scala, Clojure, Ruby, Python, PHP, Javascript and

For Play, you'll want to either 1) handle the (blocking) database queries using Futures/Actors that use a separate thread pool (this might be easier to do in Scala) or 2) bump the default thread pool sizes considerably. The default configur
