  1. OMG. had TV on mute, looked up, and Entertainment Tonight was on. I feel dirty
  2. @jrubyist what was wrong with her heart? I have a 5 month old, I can only imagine how tough this must be.
  3. @headius how do you do your benchmarks? I need to benchmark some java code, have any tips?
  4. amusing how often the act of writing up a question for stackoverflow.com makes me realize the answer :)
  5. @chadfowler that applies to heart disease and diabetes related issues, that's about it. so half way there!
  6. @jrubyist I haven't found anything on JRuby/Maven, but found this on Groovy/Maven. Perhaps the same concepts apply: http://bit.ly/5Xd563
  7. @jrubyist have you done anything with jruby/maven? or are you just doing a pure maven migration?
  8. @mhevery It should be static typing vs dynamic typing. Dynamically typed languages are strongly typed.
  9. RT @awilkinson clients from hell: http://clientsfromhell.tumb...
  10. @njbartlett i'm supportive of the dictator approach when needed - as long as they make good decisions. remains to be seen on closures
  11. @njbartlett apparently when it comes down to it - java *IS* a benevolent dictator platform. fine by me. what platform isn't?
  12. @cj2 looking at SA - so you are talking about getting rid of cable, not just the box. very different things
  13. @cj2 you still have cable?
  14. @njbartlett as long as the closure proposal is technically good, who cares? design by committee is slow and clunky
  15. WTF. Belechick is saying his 4th down call "gave us best chance." Right. We make a mistake and we stick with it dammit!
  16. bill belichick: dumbest playcall ever
  17. Google Chrome 0% CPU, 70 meg. nice improvement from ffx or safari
  18. Prediction: Google Chrome is going to crush firefox & safari
  19. @njbartlett what do you think of spring dm server?
  20. @headius Gotcha. Cutting edge language, which means most users using for new dev, which means less justification for pre-InvokeDynamic
