Visit today with us, but come back often. With your help, Data.gov will continue to grow and change in the weeks, months, and years ahead.

5. Provider<Foo>: you say that the injector must throw an exception at run time, but Guice actually fails at initialization time (or build time if you validate your modules there). Nothing in the spec prevents you from injecting additional types like ServiceReference and Iterable; Guice actually supports injecting collections of bindings via multibindings as an optional feature.

Quand Bob Lee défend @inject, il ne faut pas 2 minutes pour qu'il base sa réponse sur Guice 2 (pas Guice 1 évidemment, qui deviendra tabou comme l'ont été Maven 1 et Axis 1). C'est troublant de devoir défendre une spécification en se basant sur une de ses implémentations.

The Photos application is one of Facebook’s most popular features. Up to date, users have uploaded over 15 billion photos which makes Facebook the biggest photo sharing website. For each uploaded photo, Facebook generates and stores four images of different sizes, which translates to a total of 60 billion images and 1.5PB of storage. The current growth rate is 220 million new photos per week, which translates to 25TB of additional storage consumed weekly. At the peak there are 550,000 images served per second. These numbers pose a significant challenge for the Facebook photo storage infrastructure.

And as for “free”, I think we’re going to have a few rounds of root beers over whether a place, like Google, that browses through your e-mail via robots and uses it to generate statistically relevant advertisements on your page, or places like Flickr that do in fact have advertisements for seeing your content and charge you on top of that for additional features, or places like Ustream that have profit-sharing and used to do indirect advertisement but now overlay ads on your content, are “free”. Some people confuse “no money down” with free and that’s why they’re getting fucking kicked out of their houses, finding themselves at the mercy and procedures of actual eviction law.

Peu de choses sont réellement gratuites, et même quand elles semblent l'être, votre propriété est en réalité très limitée.
