Yes, Rust is great, all the lessons learned what not to do with C++. I could only hope Rust is (still) just a codename.....

Yes but the info is very old. I wonder if Adobe is still using it and would provide some sort of update. No Lua IDE from them as they have half promised, or anything i have seen they contribute back t…

They are more like C+ with C++ minus a set of features. And there are those who write C style in C++ for various of reason. And everyone knew the huge amount of software in C++. Why the list?

Arh. I should have written EC2. Sorry for the confusion. ( Will double check next time before i make a post )
I do realize there is other AWS services that are great and simple to use. But for hosting…

I understand how Ruckus could be doing IPO. Since they actually solve the problem with too many WiFi connections going to single point. Problems we have seen in Hotels, and Apple Expo. etc How is Mera…

I have been asking, and wondering why would anyone want to use AWS. It is insanely expensive. It is Slow on CPU, Slow on I/O, Low on Bandwidth, Low on memory, and Zero Support. Compared to many other …

That is because the world hate GWAN, ( for some strange reason ) But i do hope GWAN takes off soon. Edit: Just a note that next official version of GWAN will be released in the next couple of weeks ac…

May be someone should work on Ruby to Lua instead? Using Lua and LuaJIT as a underlying languages. Like Coffescript to Javascript. That would be a lot faster then working on Ruby VM. And since Ruby 2.…

I still fail to understand why AWS is growing. It is slow and expensive. It may be useful, and a lot cheaper if you could plan the AWS with spot price, long term rental, and generally play the AWS gam…

So Source 2 Vs Unreal 4 Vs CryEngine 4 And hopefully some MEGA Super Texture All artwork ID Engine 6.

I am expecting some momentum too once Nginx and Redis Lua support both grow together.

Comparatively how much memory was Node.js using?
comment
Interesting that After all these years Compiler still haven't catch up with self written Assembly speed. Or is there some LLVM optimization not used yet?

Interesting, that is something i not think about much, any solution to that?

I have been doing research on DNS for my project. And below are some of my findings / Opinions. I am not going to paid a large sums of money on DNS. And that rules out some of the options like Dyn. Yo…

Thanks, that is finally making some sense to me.
comment
Exactly. Again i have difficulty understanding the notion behind it. You can rule, and fine, or what ever you want. But you cant force me to apologise or admit something that i do not believe in.
comment
Exactly.

Exactly. I see nothing wrong or made up in that. All the presented information are facts. They are saying in a way, we lost, and here are the facts. In a case May be the the Judge should order the Pri…

It isn't even about identifying. Browett has to be one of the worst choice on the planet in terms of executive. I dont even know how he got into CEO of Dixon in the first place. Anyway all that is pas…

Any performance and memory usage improvement benchmarks? I was hoping Ruby 2.0 will no longer be dog slow...
comment
So with about the same CPU time, JRuby will use up to 100x memory in worst case? Anyway Ruby 2.0 is suppose to solve the Ruby is Slow problem. although i have yet to see any evidence that will the cas…

Would the Final Name still be called Rust? Or is it a code name only?
comment
Exactly. I am guessing you would need at least 4 - 5 times the pageview/hr to handle a website with 375 Million PV/M load.

Surely you would need energy to chilled the Air to Liquid?

So say, every Android and iPhone Devices, and may be Windows Phone 8 will come with a default hidden VoIP inside, if it is collected using LTE it will use that instead, the data would then be discount…
