I was hoping to see more responses :). Looks like hacker community already has ditched Java Web frameworks.
I personally like how Play has evolved, but adoption is severely thin. They just got typesafe backing but Spring with the muscle behind it might be able to shove the rest away.
I am exploring play for my next project, and all i can say is i am thoroughly impressed. With typesafe providing resources, i am hoping this seriously dents J2EE stacks.
This comparison is asinine at best. The runtime is bound to be bigger. And remember DART eventually will have the runtime included in Chrome and hopefully other browsers. The way things are going in the browser world, all people might actually care about is Chrome and if there is a wonderful IDE support which comes with strongly typed languages, there is a real shot at this becoming a standard.
We are evaluating Cloud foundry (Java GWT App) and so far changes seem doable to port. The reason cloud foundry is viable is that there is no lock in and if one provider flips another one is just round the corner.
agreed that there are more costlier things to worry, but spending the money should be justified. Just the buzz is not a good enough reason, there has to be better reasons. I have personally not experienced downtimes which might justify a better price for one.
This makes more sense, random users being able to request RESETS. I agree sending a time bound link to registered email is better.
What type of token generation mechanism would you use to send with the link to identify a user or to make sure that the link is being requested by the right user.
Hmm...interesting. Click wise it probably is less clicks and you are also forcing the user to change his password. Unless you add logic to ask the user to change his password with one time token, it probably makes more sense to send a link to reset pwd.
We do use BCrypt. Trying to figure out if implementing an extra layer of sending an email with a link to reset password has advantages over just sending a one time changed password.
Google Chromebook will have updates but they will be of chrome browser types where they happen behind the scenes and downloads are tiny. You restart your browser and you are on a new version. No one even cares what version of chrome browser you are running now, because they have made versions obsolete. That being said it is a little curious why they had to do it on first boot for 7 minutes. But everyone who is used to microsoft PC's please 7 minutes is like a blink of an eye we have dealt with microsoft's day long updates for 2 decades now.
