I wish someone would give me a column even though I don't know what the fuck I'm talking about. Greenspan had a role in the current financial crisis, but he was not the sole engineer, nor even the biggest one. For…
History will judge this to be our day's version of VBA.
If you want a framework with scalability "baked in", so to speak, you should take a look at GigaSpaces XAP (http://www.gigaspaces.com/). Its not the same model as the others mentioned on this thread but will prevent…
Clojure is neat and all, but I can't see it being anything but a proving ground for some more esoteric technologies or methods. Lisp has been around too long to get mainstream acceptance and the "power vaccum" of which…
Joel, this will be an attempt to prove out your OpenPoker infrastructure to either a) sell licences to OpenPoker, or b) sell the rights to it outright, correct? Given that, the site does not need to be super-popular in…
Google won't acquire GitHub because a) they're not for sale just now, and b) Google has a history of avoiding companies that don't share at least some of their underlying technologies. GitHub's Rails/EngineYard combo is…
Digital Element has the best data, but they are on the expensive end and their software isn't all that flexible in terms of deployment. Maxmind GeoIP is weaker in terms of accuracy but are far more flexible.
You should have probably read more closely before writin this diatribe: they specifically note in several places that they do not use TCP and can also max out on 4x Infiniband as well as 10GigE. They use UDP as their…
I dimed this out and had it disabled. Twitter doesn't need people poking through its' SQL. Imagine what we'd find if we were poking through yours...
We saw this today and have already switched over to it. Literally three hours later we are using Graphite for our health and performance graphing needs. It took about 14 lines of Python to hook up to our existing stuff.…
With ejabberd's (what they use for GTalk) cross-protocol modules (specifically, YIM), this should be relatively straightforward work on GOOG's part on the backend. I guess they must be really working hard to get the…
You could try Pentaho, they are RDBMS-agnostic: http://pentaho.org. I've evaluated them in the past and though I've never used them, they seem good for certain types of OLAP.
They most likely use an SMS gateway with an HTTP or SMPP API such as one provided by one of the following: http://www.clickatell.com/SMS_Gateway http://www.celltrust.com/Products/SMS-Gateway/CellTrust-2Way...…
The reasons why the neural network model failed and Bayesian inference is much more applicable are described very well by Jeff Hawkins in his book "On Intelligence" (http://onintelligence.com/). I highly recommend it,…
Wow, that was a perfect response. Couldn't have been classier. Kudos to the Twitter team for not only responding well but also for taking the edge off of Arrington's personal attack on Blaine
He's clearly too over-reliant on Twitter and feels emotional about its outages. Now that he's created a personal war between himself and Blaine Cook, don't expect anything from him or the rest of the Gillmor cronies to…
Um, pg? Can we get a fix on this, please?
Great post. Cliff Click, Jr. should read this right away and think some more about this "new paradigm".
Well of course it will end piracy. I mean, obviously. Look at how well the TPM chip stopped the OSX86 project from installing Mac OS X on non-Apple hardware!
Um, exit via acquisition is not a business model. By very definition. Link bait trash.
Absolutely. If I could go just one day without hearing about Twitter's problems and some lame solution to them, I'll be happy. Give the team time to fix the problems and they will; the new team knows how to do it, has a…
