this code is so smart, maybe because it is Python after all

    from operator import add
    expr = "28+32+++32++39"
    print reduce(add, map(int, filter(bool, expr.split("+"))))

but in JavaScript it looks much more readable:

  "28+32+++32++39".split(/([\+]+)/g).reduce((r,v) => r+v, 0);

Nice one, a fun list of hobby side projects made by Golang enthusiasts.

I'm gonna drop Jetty and Java altogether in favor of AeroNotix/wedge!

It is also the only one library available for Golang atm.

Actually I think that this example written in Java8 with lambda expressions would be more impressive.

I like the trick in Golang marketing, where we get a code full of references to some libraries. Same could be done about other languages.

Oh, look, web server in 5 lines of code, in Java!

    public static void main(String[] args) throws Exception {
        Server server = new Server(80);
        server.setHandler(new HelloWorld());
 
        server.start();
        server.join();
    }

The trick is cheap, but it works!

Programmer who is looking at keyboard while typing code - not good enough.

Cancer has been around for tens of thousands of years, yet human kind did just fine.

Hint: use something like

  var DEV = true;

  (function() { 
     var priv = function() {};
     if(DEV) 
       this.priv = priv; 
   })();

and then use Closure Compiler with option: --define DEV=false

Emscripten - C++ -> JS, that's exciting, compared to Java -> JS

> Solr

Who cares about technology behind Solr? You didn't even mention Lucene

Postgres already offers HTTP interface:

Scala or Cloujre, just like Java will be used for not so exciting programming tasks, syntactic sugar won't help here.

police, pedophiles, stalkers etc.

that is false statement actually

HTML is an amazing language for creating static documents, but it was never designed for interactive web apps

It is bundled also in Firefox, Opera and Safari.

with JavaScript, there is no need to know how computer works, so why would anyone learn(deeply) about that?

I see one problem:

- Entire generation of programmers may not have any knowledge about how computer works

Technically Poland was under soviet occupation, so it was like Vichy France during WWII, but for almost 5 decades.

How about DEFCONlike game:

it is always possible to explain why some particular program is running slow and in case of programs running inside JVM, JVM itself is almost never the (only) reason.
