  1. Re:But CPAN is shit on RubyGems' Module Count Soon To Surpass CPAN's · · Score: 1

    There is "pythonforge" but I've never used it.

    Pythonforge? Do you mean PyPI, the main repository for Python frameworks and libraries that is the default download location of the flurry of Python install tools (setuptools, distribute, pip) and that contains 12487 packages? You never used it? Good sir, you are missing a little something.

  2. Re:For performance-critical code there is no choic on Are C and C++ Losing Ground? · · Score: 1

    Sorry, but I wonder if anyone of you have heard about things like "hotspot" and "jit" compilers. Server applications that are "performance-critical" like currency-exchange systems are actually built in Java (not J2EE mind you). Java Applications that run for a long time can outperform C applications, simply because the vm can use runtime information to make optimizations. C compilers can only make conservative optimizations because they rely solely on static analyses...

  3. Re:Hotmail/Google Client on A look at Thunderbird 2.0 Beta · · Score: 1

    Maybe this could help you. I'm using the WebMail extension to access Hotmail and GMail. In the early days it was somehow buggy but now it works pretty well! It supports hotmail, gmail, yahoo, lycos, aol and maildotcom.
