At the moment I'm developing a Python based web app. I started using PyDev/Eclipse but found the environment more hindrance than aid.

I then got the idea to package up my development environment into a Virtualbox VM. I modeled the VM as closely as possible to the production environment. I run a screen session with several Vim instances (using windows and tabs). I then ssh to the VM. I find this convenient for a number of reasons:

• my development env is as close as possible to the production env
• I don't need any unnecessary daemons running on my physical OS (e.g. Apache, MySQL, etc)
• the VM can be versioned (via snapshots)
• I can suspend the VM and restore it to the exact state it was previously in (same screen/vim sessions, same daemon states)
• the VM is only has 256MB RAM allocated to it; I can start VirtualBox and restore my VM in less time than it takes to open Eclipse

In my experience, having your development environment behave exactly the same *every* time you use it is not to be overlooked.

Can't say if this is the real deal, but you can download, install it in a VM and verify before the image on the moblin site finishes.

Tree Style Tab is fabulous for many reasons, not the least of which is that it conserves vertical in favor of horizontal real estate--something in abundance on the wide-aspect monitors becoming more common these days.

I didn't really RTFA that well. Is it possible to run more than one 'Guest' OS simultaneously? I would love to be able to run many different OSs on top of a very minimalistic hypervisor and hop between them with a hotkey.

Nuke it from orbit. It's the only way to be sure.

Google doesn't sell/license BigTable in any way. It's used internally. I fail to see how it's possible to release an alternative to something which can't be acquired in any form.

Thats... terrible. I would like to hear these people's description of how a hashtable is 'supposed' to work. Even more puzzling to me is how someone could decide to use a data structure without understanding its behavior (and without at least checking the Java APIs or simply Googling).

Anyone have a link to the HD footage? The YouTube "Watch in high quality" version isn't hi def enough to read all the scary warning labels :)

I hope Microsoft doesn't donate any smallpox infected code to the Apache peoples.
