If you look at those benchmarks, for the same db queries on the same db backend, throughput and latency can differ by an order of magnitude. We're talking the difference between 20…

But to succeed as a currency, it needs to encourage people to spend .

I am indeed referring to for-comprehensions. Any time you have nested flatMap/maps you can replace it with a for, since that's all a for-comprehension really is... computation1.fla…

But if the currency is deflationary with a coin limit, over the long term the only way more people can enter the market / make use the currency is for, as an example, $1 USD to be …

The point of these benchmarks is that, given the same database and the same queries, languages have different performance profiles. If I build an application in Java and Python, wi…

It's also included by default in Play Framework. I used it for a while, on a large project, and eventually came to hate it. I try to write as clean code as ppossible but still foun…

Ooh, is there a story behind this one?

I've been pleasantly surprised using SBT... it's been doing the job for me for a year now and I haven't had any problems.

I know I like to talk about Haskell, even if it's too dense for me to grasp at a level where I could put it into production without jumping off a bridge.

This isn't really a "confession"... just someone gushing over a programming language in a terrible looking font.

Not if you have to type that out every single time...

Google Trends predicts own demise?

There certainly are ORMs available with Play! I'm using one called Activate ( http://activate-framework.org/ ) in a few of my latest projects and it's really simplified things. The…
