A couple of things, powerful data navigation and export to pdf from the UI are rely nice features and they will make life easier for the end user, but in my experience the main user of a DB admin application are developers, DBA's and admins. Most of which are not as concerned with the actual contents of the data, as they are with the structures of the data as well as the performance of the data.

Developers general concern themselves with the data when they are setting up test, or diagnosing a data related problem but in the coarse of a day most of their focus is on the structure and performance of the data and database.

The point being, generally your call center rep or your accountant (the end user) uses a custom interface dedicated to data navigation and data viewing (coupled with workflow) these features will most likely not be exposed to them and they are the users most advantaged by them, particularly the export to PDF feature.

Again, please don't take this as knocking your hard work, I think that powerful data navigation is important for those times that you do have to directly manage the data and think other DB admin front ends are severely lacking in that departments, but I urge you to keep in mind that in most organizations almost all the end users that are interested in the actual data are buffered away from a raw DB interface, even report writers who know SQL fairly well are buffered with tools such as Cognos and Crystal Reports.

But I think you have the basis to cure a pain point that plagues a lot of organizations given that you now have a good base product to build a robust development tool on.

A portion of (software) developers do not like and look at relational databases as second class to actually writing software. If you can mold your tool in to providing deep analysis and diagnostics and marry that with solution engine that provides recommendations on how to optimize and refine the data structure and query structures so that they are more performant, more secure, less resource intensive and you can do this in a seamless way you are scratching an itch that a good portion of developers cant reach.

The Case for Being Disruptively Good
There's more involved than just trees here. The environment doesn't just involve plants?

It takes energy to produce trees, cut them down, make paper, transport paper, print magazines, distribute magazines, throw away magazines and then (hopefully) recycle it.

This isn't a solved problem. Far from it. Why not just distribute it digitally.

I think printing yesterday's news on a piece of dead tree, transporting it and then selling it is a stupid idea...

Multi-core Parallelization in Clojure - a Case Study
"Either way, if you've been using Apple approved development tools before this change, nothing has changed, and therefore there is nothing more to worry about after than before this change in stance."

That's one way to look at it. Of course, then the question becomes one of a permissive development platform. You are only allowed to use what they say you can, and if they don't say you can use it, you shouldn't. And even then, they've proven in the past that even this isn't reliable. You can follow their rules, and it still not matter.

This isn't the first time they've done this. Just because they say you can do something now doesn't mean they won't pull the plug later. This is a volatile situation to be in. Now, I won't argue whether they can do it legally. Nor will I suggest that other companies can't do it. But Apple seems to be rather blatant about it.

Congratulations on the first month! I was interested at one time in selling stock photos. I used to be quite involved in photography in general, devving and printing my own pics. I looked at the istock site and pretty much concluded that the best way to make money there is to take pics of people. I live in Prague, Czech Republic and I was hoping to take pictures of architecture, as they have great examples of all the major movements. How much time to you devote to taking pics?

Good luck in your endeavors!

I've been hammering on Apple this past week for changes they made. Part of the reason I do this is because at home, I fight a never ending battle against Apple. You see, I'm a PC. My wife? A Mac.

And she loves her Mac. She's been waiting for these new MacBooks to come out so she can get herself a new MBP.

Since W7 and the upgrade I did on my computer, I've been reminding her ever so gently about how "my computer is so vastly superior to hers" and remarking "how slow that thing is." She bites back, explaining that when the new MBPs come out, the resell value on her laptop will more than cover a substantial portion of the cost. She then asks me "if I hate Apple so much, maybe I should sell my iPod."

She had problems connecting to the color printer attached to my computer. "If you had gotten a windows machine, it would have been easier." She bites back, "If you had gotten a Mac, it would have been better." I remind her "You got me Windows 7 as a gift, remember?"

"Oh, you didn't like MY gift for you? Are you complaining about Windows 7?"

"No..."

We both can agree, however, that both Apple and Microsoft's ability to work together sucks. But it does make for interesting Saturday mornings.

I cannot say I'm indulged by this news. I want my tech news down to the minute, not a monthly overview. I'm doubtful that many HN users would care to learn more about month old news.

-GPU upgrade to 330M from 9600M GT on 15/17-inch models and 320M on 13-inch models

-Intel HD Graphics

-Option to get a higher resolution screen (1680x1050 for 15-inch) with "antiglare"

Edit: And even if users check what link they are about to click, what of shortened URLs?
Review my startup: Akshell, a web application network
I've been using Nitrogen now for close to a year, and I've been anxiously awaiting 2.0, particularly the improved support for multi-node servers.

I've got a couple of startup-type projects I'm working on that will be using Nitrogen, though none of them are production ready yet.

Based on the documentation, it looks a bit easier to get up and off the ground as compared with 1.0, since it looks like it can be packaged as a self-contained system (packaged with the web-server and erlang binaries, if I read that correctly).

Overall, I'm very excited about this.

Thanks, Rusty!

80legs Cake of the Month
Has anyone come across performance tests between nVidias older 9400M chip and their new 320M chip?

I find it interesting that the 13" models now tout a "10 hour battery", up from the old 7 hour one - I am curious to find out if it's all caused by replacing the old 9400M north/southbridge with the 320M, or if there is also a new battery behind it. A 45% increase in estimated avg. battery time is a pretty damned nice number for any laptop user.
I've noticed about the architecture pics. How long has it taken you to build the photo base you now have? And is most of the base still providing income, or do you see it tailing off? Your $500 for the month would more than cover all my expenses out here, so I wonder how long it would take to get to the size base you have now.
It sounds like being a Japanese salaryman... except with better pay.
RabbitMQ really is not "Cloud Messaging Technology" at its core. It's an erlang based message broker that implements the AMQP standard. I'm not sure why Spring is marketing it as a cloud technology other than for marketing purposes.
Probably ex-Czech Navy. You don't fsck with those guys.
Yes, for example 4gb of memory is now the default in the 13". Also I'm not sure if the SD slot was there before.
Is there any reason to be excited about the new CPUs? I'd say that the high-res display on 15" and better battery life are more interesting.

Also, any info if the graphic cards switch automagically or you have to log out?

Pricey. For the cost of a 17" MacBook, you could instead get a quad-core i7 desktop, an SSD for the boot drive, 2TB of RAID-1, and a 30" monitor.

This is why I go the desktop/netbook route. Cheaper overall, and the laptop is basically disposable. If you break it or lose it, oh well. Not the case with the Macbook.
It runs on EC2, thats probably cloudy enough these days.
