Codetown ::: a software developer's community
Hi folks,
It's been a while since last time I post here. I just want to share a project that I have started recently and hopefully it will benefit some of you.
In many places where I worked, they often needed a light, fast and standalone server like process that run easily without much hassle, compare to use a full blown JEE server. I often ended up writing the same bootstrapper service that does many of the basic things. We need logging, we need easy configuration set loader, we need remote control and management, and we need it NOW!
I have been started and collected some experimental code for a while on each time I learn how to do it better. So I finally created a new project under googlecode and named "spring-runner". You may call it a Fully functional Tiny Little Java Server. :)
See http://code.google.com/p/spring-runner
I hope you will find it useful. Feel free to provide any feedback and comments on the project.
Best regards,
-- Zemian Deng

I use googlecode because they provide Mercurial source control. It also gives me a project home page, Wiki, Issue tracking etc, all are ready to go in just few minutes.
Now only if private companies we work for will have such infrastructure setup, and easiness of use for all internal projects, our job would be so much productive, won't we? :)

NVIDIA Personal AI Router (PAIR), now available in beta, lets you combine the inference capacity of multiple computers on your local network and automatically distribute AI requests among them. It is primarily designed for local multi-agent AI workloads, where multiple independent model calls can otherwise overwhelm one GPU.

Netflix has reworked its Conductor workflow orchestration engine to handle larger workloads, increasing supported workflow size from about 2,500 to 30,000 tasks and reducing p99 workflow evaluation latency by about 40%. Conductor 4.0 separates workflow metadata from task data, moves evaluation to asynchronous processing, and introduces dynamic worker allocation and concurrency controls.

tsgolint has released a stable v7, enhancing TypeScript linting with native Go speed. It offers type-aware linting, leveraging TypeScript's semantic analysis through the typescript-go compiler. Oxlint manages configurations and file discovery. The release, compatible with TypeScript 7.0.2, handles 59 of 61 type-aware rules and shows significant performance improvements over ESLint.
