+1 to official Java drivers

Thanks for the post on Flask and Rethink. I am starting a side project using these two and it is always good to come across helpful resources like yours.

I don't think there will ever be silver bullets. :)

IntelliJ has a community version with the source posted over at GitHub. They also have a flavor for Python which recently had an open source version released. But as you said, to each his own.

If they have their own agenda, why should it matter? If this benefits them and Linux, why would this development be bad?

And just to add to the list of c-store databases, there's also Sybase IQ. (I believe Sybase is now owned by SAP so it may have been rebranded)

We use Grails purely for the convenience of its Views, Controllers, and Services. For the backend, we use Java - backed REST-like services.

It is trivial to remove the GORM/Hibernate dependencies from Grails.

If you can use No-Sql databases that offer a REST API, all you will need is an additional dependency on Httplib so you can make the calls.

I am curious, what type of app do you have running on the 512MB VPS? I use Java in my day job but I am considering using Python for a side project primarily because of a JVM-based app higher memory requirement.

On one of those free 50GB storage space that Box.net gave out.

Currently exploring if I should create a script that will backup the files to Amazon Glacier.

I used to work with Andersen Consulting/Accenture. We had this ranking thing as well. Had lots of peers who were of the kiss ass type. Fortunately was very technical and stood out while still at the programmer/analyst level. Would have fared poorly at the managerial level though.

Many other companies probably have this too.

This is great. Thank you for sharing.

I've been planning to create a Python script to help me automatically label my older emails based on content. This is a big help.

Same here. Been a looking time Thinkpad used. I was planning to get one of them Retina MBPs when they are updated and released later this year. I am still waiting too see what Lenovo will offer that can replace my aging Thinkpad W500.

On a laptop I can never work efficiently on anything with less than FHD resolution.

I've been an Ubuntu user since Breezy but currently trying out Mint. Considered using Fuduntu, since we mostly use RHEL for work, but since the project will end soon, will wait for what will "replace" it

That's what gets me worried about using these "proprietary" PaaS offerings.

Why not just come up with a separate installer for the browser plugin. The runtime isn't as bad security-wise. Or is it?

Wait for the Haswell. It's only a few months away.

It's https://github.com/Atmosphere/atmosphere for me.

I'm also looking for a good alternative to Hibernate.

On the upside, free to play allows you to try out the game before fully investing on it. On the downside, if it's good enough, you will probably be milked more than the typical $60 retail in DLCs and in game items.

I personally don't buy games at launch anymore. I just wait for it to go on sale on Steam.
