What Java Should Learn From Ruby and Rails. What Java Should Learn From Ruby and Rails. I hate to say this, but Java has gotten a bad rap among some programmers. It’s deserved at times, but it’s worth noting that it’s often more about the people behind Java than the technology itself. Here’s an example. Clearly, this is horribly wrong.

It was actually a remarkable amount of work, but I think it’s turned out rather nicely. Stay tuned here for more entirely personal posts. If you’re looking for technical / professional goodness, you might want to look at my other blog. It's obvious, really. :P. What's a triple espresso? On What If There Were No CDs?

Random MacOSX TCP Behavior. Random MacOSX TCP Behavior. TCP is an interesting protocol. It’s interesting mostly because it is less a specification of bytes and more a specification of behavior. Most TCP implementations have developed from the sort of arcane knowledge that you can only amass after trying to implement such a basic protocol over a long period of time. One of the nice features of TCP is that it’s incredibly resilient to network links just disappearing. This is no problem for it....That sa...

Interpreting The Evidence on Human Reasoning. Interpreting The Evidence on Human Reasoning. I recently read two largely unrelated articles.
