Re:Redhat/Micro Focus/JBoss And COBOL - 4 in a bed? on Saturday October 06, 2012 @04:00AM (#4620057)

There is already a lot of mainframe offload. It seems that the middle range of mips is the sweet spot. Taking advantage of the services systems like JBOSS gives is, quite possibly, the last piece in the puzzel.

Ha! I use it all the time. Just the other day someone asked what this mixed windowing system was - I just explained and they say Doh!

Re:HaikuOS x86_64 port part of Google Summer of Code on Monday April 30, 2012 @07:39AM (#3908789)

Whilst I agree with the point that Linux UIs are not great - that has nothing what so ever to do with Linux. Linux knows nothing about the UI layer which is all X11. There is no need to replace the OS to get a better UI.

Re:The fastest Statistical Programming Language is …Javascript? on Saturday April 28, 2012 @08:36AM (#3902797)

More to the point - who cares. All these languages are hopelessly slow. If performance matters do it in a performant language like C++, C or FORTRAN. If it does not matter - then it does not matter and so stop going on about it.

Re:C++11 Continuations - High Performance JNI on Tuesday April 24, 2012 @08:57AM (#3883693)

Closures as continuations in C++, maybe Stroustrup was right when he said it looks like a completely new language.
