A passionate programmer, software architect, and a enthusiastic observer of internet technologies and usage. Having worked in a variety of roles, the essential passion that drives me is that of a Programmer. Architecture and Design issues excite me, Solving problems through programming is what I crave. C++, Java and Python I am quite competent at, Python being the most exciting. A number of other languages I experiment with.

Hmm many tweets about Eucalyptus : The Open Source Amazon API compatible cloud platform – http://www.eucalyptus.com/ #
LOL! RT: @sduskis RT @ptrthomas Enterprise Service Bus: what hapless developers are thrown under when an Enterprise Architect is let loose #
@sbtourist count me in as one more person who wonders why there was a GWT. in reply to sbtourist #
@pchaganti any idea if anyone's documented their experiences ? in reply to pchaganti #
@mike__kelly I've generally found it useful to consider a representation as an interface while the underlying resource as an implementation in reply to mike__kelly #
RT: @sduskis: RT @edham_arief: http://bit.ly/oxPDw understanding nice explanation on #rest #
Is there a logo for ReST (Representational State Transfer) ? If not there probably needs to be one #
LOL! Apollo 11 source code on GoogleCode http://lambda-the-ultimate.org/node/3522 The comments in the code haven't changed in 4 decades #
@dangiankit its much easier to promote / evangelise with a logo (notice the python logo on my avataar on twitter ) in reply to dangiankit #
Time to rethink software engineering http://tinyurl.com/lt3f5g Methinks its time to rethink project management as well. #
Is spring becoming the very problem that it was designed to solve ? http://tinyurl.com/nnje55 I'm afraid thats a real fear. #
Planning for Feature-Complete Deadlines http://ff.im/-5yLdk #
To SQL or not to SQL? http://ff.im/-5yLdm #
@dushyanth Yeah, but now I don't think I'm going to very soon get onto the space tourism rush in reply to dushyanth #
Nobody Hates Software More Than Software Developers http://ff.im/-5zt6i #
Support Should Never Be Necessary http://ff.im/-5zt6c #
@psnively imo it takes a least common denominator approach to javascript that I don't quite buy. May work for form based apps or ..contd.. in reply to psnively #
@psnively ..contd.. with boilerplate widgets. Building really good UIs requires careful work with js which can't just be abstracted away in reply to psnively #
@davetron5000 Have found Fielding responds only so rarely to matters concerning REST. Assume he's not likely 2b bothered by a logo request. in reply to davetron5000 #
@sbtourist @thinkingbox I'm afraid spring fell into the trap of "I became my parents". The spring reference is now almost intimidating. in reply to sbtourist #
@ironick Isn't that imprecise ? eg. data about sample size makes the sample data more usable – but thats not metadata imo. in reply to ironick #
Wondering about how to ship in-band metadata for JSON responses (eg schema+namespaces in case of XML). Any good/best practices out there ? #
@asplake Not sure how I missed this, but found an answer in JSON schema proposal itself. http://tinyurl.com/yvyzoo (5th last row) in reply to asplake #
@asplake I kind of like the json-schema suggested approach since it refers to the schema exactly where it is used rather in the header in reply to asplake #
@dkeskar My evaluation context was not AJAX specific – was more related to using JSON payloads for RESTful APIs with self describing data. in reply to dkeskar #
@psnively Xceptionally functional and usable but dry. Wonder how successful would they've been if had been offered by an unknown company. in reply to psnively #
My query about inband json schema was answered by the json schema doc http://tinyurl.com/yvyzoo (last line b4 the Tools section) #
@billmelater thanx .. will take a look at it as well. in reply to billmelater #
@psnively preordainment it may be, but even that has a rationale, wonder if GWT could do this http://tinyurl.com/dmhexd .. contd.. in reply to psnively #
@psnively ..contd.. GWT simplifies JS as generatable from java – JS should be treated as a first class language to build competence in in reply to psnively #
@psnively .. having said that I would admit there are a class of applications where GWT might be fine. Just that I never got excited with it in reply to psnively #
@psnively A rather lengthy response : http://tinypaste.com/e13eb1c #
