#2Offtopic, but does anybody know how the diagrams in this article were generated? I'd love a simple piece of software to generate beautiful, straightforward pictures like this to explain architectural problems.

I don't think that it generated these diagrams, but you should check out planttext (http://www.planttext.com/) - makes UML diagrams easy.

I don't know about the article, but DOT[0] + graphviz[1] could be used for this.

#5Why not just run Linux locally? Mac OS X is BSD, not Linux, which means its build tools & environment are subtly incompatible. You're always going to be chafing if you develop anywhere other than in your deployment environment.
Linux is superlative for desktop & development use. It supports things like tiling window managers far better than does a Mac. It's free. The hardware is far more affordable. Although this is definitely a matter of taste, I find Linux far more usable than a Mac. I will grant that Mac laptops are lightweight & thin.
It just seems weird to me to go through all these contortions to develop software for Linux on a Mac or Windows box when it's far easier IMHO to just … run Linux.

That simply isn't cool enough.

#7Why do you need to connect to remote services using weave? Should the stage environment be separated from you development one?
Anyway nice article.
Thanks

Do you want ants? Because that's how you get ants.

Developers don't exist in a vacuum. A lot of people have to use stuff like Office and Skype; if you do that on Windows, "you're always going to be chafing", the pain just moves from one area to the next.

I've been using a Mac for 10 years and am thinking of switching back to Linux. I also want to get new hardware as 4GB RAM is really limiting. What would people recommend? I do like the Mac hardware, but considering you can get better for a lot less I don't think I'll stick with it.
