  • Choosing gems to work with AWS

    - by Sergii Vozniuk
    Suppose a service written with RoR starts to use AWS S3 to store some data. What is the best library to use for working with AWS S3? Currently the main two alternatives for me are: RightScale AWS Ruby gems http://github.com/rightscale/right_aws AWS::s3 http://amazon.rubyforge.org/ What are their main advantages and disadvantages? What if later service will need to use other AWS (like EC2)? What other gems do you use and why? Thanks!

  • Is it true that one should not use NSLog() on production code?

    - by jpm
    I was told this a few times in this very site, but I wanted to make sure this is really the case. I was expecting to be able to sprinkle NSLog function calls throughout my code, and that Xcode/gcc would automatically strip those calls out when building my Release/Distribution builds. Should I avoid using this? If so, what alternatives are most common between experienced Objective-C programmers?

  • Good Git repository viewer for Mac

    - by Sergio Acosta
    Can anyone recommend a good repository viewer for Git, similar to gitk, that works on Mac OS X Leopard? (I'm not saying gitk doesn't work) Of course I would like a native Mac application, but as I haven't found any, what are the best options to gitk? I know about gitview, but I'm looking forward to evaluate as many alternatives as possible. http://sourceforge.net/projects/gitview

  • Find and replace table/field names in Access?

    - by richardtallent
    I've been handed a rather large, old, and crusty Access 2000/2003 database to clean up. I'll need to rename a number of tables and fields, but need to do so in a way that doesn't break existing queries. (Fortunately, there are no macros, forms, or reports to worry about.) I've heard there are some commercial tools to make this job easier, but only found one (http://www.rickworld.com/products.html). Can anyone recommend this software, or any alternatives?

  • Hidden limitations of Google App Engine?

    - by Kyle Cronin
    I've been looking into writing a web app that will run on Google App Engine, but before I commit myself to the platform I'd like to know what, if any, limitations there are. I'm aware of the basic CPU/bandwidth restrictions that Google places on the free service, but I'm wondering more about development restrictions like how BigTable compares to a standard relational database and what Python libraries aren't available on the GAE platform (and what alternatives Google provides). Basically I'm looking for any hidden roadblocks before I commit to the platform. Thanks for your help!

  • PHP mobile browser detection?

    - by TreyK
    I'm in need of a way to detect mobile browsers server-side. I'd like a way that requires me to do little to set up and little to maintain, yet still provide me with accurate detection of (at the VERY least) Android, Mobile Safari and Blackberry browsers, along with alternatives like Opera. I'd like to have at least the majority of the mobile market covered, and I'd really prefer virtually all of the market if it doesn't take much.
