if your working with a good SCM and have somebody with a clue who administers it (I've worked in a large clearcase setup for years, with a great admin staff) concurrent development isn't that hard to do. Good tools make the job easy.
file locking is ok for 2 or 3 developers, any more then that, it sucks bad.
>>i cant see how that statement can be true. the JRE might be able to allocate at that speed, since it is machine level, but the application cannot, since it has to be interpreted and then the allocation can occur.
it's because of how java manages the heap. it asks for a chunk of memory from the OS on startup, when you want an object, it just marks the memory as used and returns the pointer.
read the article and see some of the clever things the JVMs do now with memory management, it's really cool.
>>thats not my point though. the point is that String s = "abc"; is not as fast as strcpy( s, "abc" ); for obvious reasons.
if it doesn't have to allocate the memory first, then it's faster. modern JVMs make String s = "abc" static anyway since strings are immutable (I believe java 5 & 6 both do this)
I'm not bashing PHP, you just need to be aware that java has changed alot since the shitty applets of 1.0.2.
a hypervisor could easily throttle any VM that tries to hog all the resources. the problem of having a large amount of users on one machine was solved a long time ago.
not every computer handles load like linux or windows does.
hell yeah it makes sense under the desktop. windows desktop for testing , linux desktop for development, linux dev server, linux DB server all on the same desktop.
the variety is better on digg, each site has a very annoying apple fanboy base. I don't really find the discussion here very interesting anymore, a lot of groupthink, since the mod system forced away anybody who dares to disagree with the mass opinion around here.
marriage is about compromise. when I'm done working I take the kids and give her the quiet time she wants. I give up some of my free time so she can have some.
I work from home 2 -3 days a week and I get more done at home then at work.
connection pooling was invented to get around that problem. the connection is already open when you get it (unless the pool needs to create another one)
I've been a programmer on some very large DB driven apps, and I've never run into that kind of stuff. you just need to use the tools that are available.
I have roadrunner that advertised 4M, and i'm getting over 5M. When I had SBC (shitty bell company) dsl, when it worked, I was able to get 1.3M when it was advertised at 1.5M.

We host lots of applications (over 50) on the system we have, with folks all over the world using it. speed has never been an issue for me at all.
it's a great system when you have a good admin. I can't pimp it enough.

java memory allocation is as fast as if not faster then malloc.
enjoy
how about grep new MainClass.java?
overuse of cat is linked to excessive diarrhea. just saving you the trouble.
you don't need a whole freaking J2EE stack to do web programming in java, it's really easy to get a tomcat installation setup and write some jsps.
J2EE is a huge specification, but nothing requires you to use all of it.
so, I have to pay to get those fuckers to stop spamming me?
at least I get a nice bonfire every 3 weeks from all the direct mail crap I get.
at least it's not source unsafe, harvest, or PVCS.
clearcase 4 ever!
diarrhea
use the stuff provided by pear, don't ever write your own escape functions, or well you'll get owned.
if your new to programming, the first lesson to learn is know what tools you have available so you don't reinvent the wheel.
there is no level of cheating. yeah, black & white. you are cheating or your not.
I wouldn't call honestly forgetting to cite something cheating, however, did you really 'forget' or just want to sound better?
must look really hot in lab coat
randomize the form field names. and if they get em wrong, just fail silently

this is slashdot, where the misunderstandings are part of the fun =-)

it'll be great for developers

my wife takes care of them. I usually take an hour lunch during the day and play with them.
when I'm done working, I keep an eye on them so my wife gets quiet time.

close the door. problem solved. I have two kids 2 & 4, I just close the door and they leave me alone.
bloated is an understatement. my remote EJB calls are much faster then soap calls.
SOAP is easier to get going with though.
with the right IDE, EJBs are not all that hard. I've picked up message driven beans and session beans on my own.
after googling for Jessica Alba's bikini, I am much more interested in it.

I guess I'm the exception to the rule.
