fulltime resources on RadRails = a good thing, particularly given the recent focus from NetBeans on the Ruby world; only catch is that i’ve had issues with Aptana before on my Eclipse

interesting stance, considering the activation policies put in place in Vista (more on those shortly)

a look at some of the new Solaris distribution options (there are too many, IMO); the goals of Express Developer Edition in particular are good, but the install fails on my Ultra 20

Stephen, I’m troubled to hear about the installation failure of the Solaris Express Developer Edition. Will you blog with some additional details or drop me a line?
The idea of s3/ec2 for all my hosting needs is so appealing, but non-persistent mysql instances just won’t cut it. There’s a couple interesting ways to replicate around the problem, such as running two mysqls on one instance, but they’re far from efficient. Latency is the deal breaker for using db’s off-site from ec2 frontends, so the idea of a storage engine is pretty exciting. Better yet, I’d like to see Amazon give us an object-relational database or something similar to Google Base.
I’m the author/presenter for the mysql s3 storage engine. I’ve just made my first public release of it, it’s at http://fallenpegasus.com/code/mysql-awss3
