Not directly related, but there's one tweet I like: "No no no no. The voice of newbies is one of your biggest assets. Why don't they understand? What is the confusion?" John Resig …

How CORBA compares to Apache Thrift, or Google's protobuf? or do they try to solve different things?

> I just turned down an offer because of something like this. One question, was this offer from amazon? I mean, are the things the guy said for amazon?

You should use highest protocol of pickle, here are the numbers in my machine: In [5]: %timeit pickle.dumps(a) 1 loops, best of 3: 724 ms per loop In [6]: %timeit pickle.dumps(a, p…
