Miss the Scala LiftOff? We’ve got a LiftOff Review at New York Scala Enthusiasts tonight. Scala 2.8, Lift at Foursquare, Scalacheck, Spde, and more.
NYC Meetup: Checking in to Lift, with Foursquare: “Using examples from their production web site, Harry Heymann of Foursquare will show how Lift’s view-first architecture is well suited to interactive, AJAX-infused pages.”
In case you are wondering how Apple’s quaint digital Animal Farm will inevitably advance, Phil Schiller hints of the company sharing their absolute power over Cocoa Touch devices with various salivating governments: “We’ve had a lot of eyes on us. We’ve had inquiries from governments and political leaders asking us what we were doing to protect children from inappropriate content.” It warms the heart.
Using simple-build-tool at Twitter: “I’m sharing more of the sbt incantations that @stevej and I came up with last week when moving a project over from Ant/Ivy. We follow a pretty traditional Java packaging structure. Replicating that took a fair bit of experimentation, but we got it all working.” { sbt }
Git’s presumptuous fast-forward merges: “Meanwhile, nobody has been working on the main branch, so nothing has happened there. It’s time to merge back in so you can release this awesome new code. If you do this with git merge, it will do a fast-forward merge, meaning it will just ignore the existence of your branch and pretend that you were working on the master branch all along. Most importantly, it will not create a merge point that you can identify later. The information that you ever had a feature branch is gone.” Annoying.
