Indeed, Facebook is already using their own fork of PHP.

Why not Heroku in this case?

Wish you the best!

They want to be your user-friendly personal cloud. Easy as an an App Store. Open source. Host it wherever you want. Your data and your apps are yours.

OK, thanks. But isn't it the point of all ORMs? Why the emphasis on pure?

> I'm not very familiar with the culture of the Python community so this might come across as offending, but why such an obsession with "pure" Python?

I think it refers to the implementation, meaning the library has no C modules and is written 100% in Python.

This means it should be able to run on all Python implementations, including Jython, IronPython, PyPy, Google App Engine...

Did a lot of AMOS too when I was in high school. We made a nice platform game with two friends and released it as shareware. Lots of small experiments too, including some attempts at adventure games. :)

Were some companies acquired multiple times the same year, or is there a bug somewhere? (RazorFish is listed 3 times in 2002, DoubleClick and Skype twice in 2005, Getty Images twice in 2008, Sterling Commerce twice in 2009.)

Are they?

If you want this as a service, you may want to look at http://about.me/

They're meant to differentiate their CPUs, and find a good use for the billions of transistors that their process technology allows them to include in their designs. So the question is, what's better: more cache, more cores (diminishing returns after 4), or a specialized accelerator for 3D, video and generic heavily parallel computations (GPGPU)?

What Python tools or libraries are you using for infrastructure automation?

I like this, and I just signed up! Do you think tipping is something that GitHub might want to add as a core feature of their web site?

Definitely feels faster here in Paris, France.

or maybe it's a gallicism and he means "coins on the ground"?

What are some examples of features from other languages that you would like to see in Python?

Actually, the router/NAS and set-top-box are two separate devices.

And unfortunately the browser is crap. :-(

Cool. Fabric rocks!

People may also want to check out Ian Bicking's Silver Lining tool: http://cloudsilverlining.org/

The Python interpreter does an implicit "import site" on initialization.

You can disable it using the -S option if/when you care about startup time.

Here are some numbers on my MacBook Pro:

$ ./run.sh bash hello.sh

median 0.002

$ ./run.sh python hello.py

median 0.016

$ ./run.sh python -S hello.py

median 0.008

I'll try to be there too!

I hope their first job will not be to rewrite it all in C++ or Java on top of some proprietary Google storage. :)

Are you an average Python developer?

It's been more than a day for me. It's Tuesday and I still have not regained access to my GMail account...

Yep, those CPUs only support 8GB max.

See the Intel Core i7 2620M (the 2.7Ghz part in the high-end 13" model) spec sheet for example: http://ark.intel.com/Product.aspx?id=52231
