Indeed, Facebook is already using their own fork of PHP.

Why not Heroku in this case?

Wish you the best!

OK, thanks. But isn't it the point of all ORMs? Why the emphasis on pure?

> I'm not very familiar with the culture of the Python community so this might come across as offending, but why such an obsession with "pure" Python?

I think it refers to the implementation, meaning the library has no C modules and is written 100% in Python.

This means it should be able to run on all Python implementations, including Jython, IronPython, PyPy, Google App Engine...

Did a lot of AMOS too when I was in high school. We made a nice platform game with two friends and released it as shareware. Lots of small experiments too, including some attempts at adventure games. :)

Were some companies acquired multiple times the same year, or is there a bug somewhere? (RazorFish is listed 3 times in 2002, DoubleClick and Skype twice in 2005, Getty Images twice in 2008, Sterling Commerce twice in 2009.)

Are they?

They're meant to differentiate their CPUs, and find a good use for the billions of transistors that their process technology allows them to include in their designs. So the question is, what's better: more cache, more cores (diminishing returns after 4), or a specialized accelerator for 3D, video and generic heavily parallel computations (GPGPU)?

What Python tools or libraries are you using for infrastructure automation?

I like this, and I just signed up! Do you think tipping is something that GitHub might want to add as a core feature of their web site?
