Also, when you say that with a Django server it’s pretty hard to setup, try to take a look at virtualenvs, which are allowing you to have all the python binaries / modules inside a single folder that you can easily move where you want.

One other thing, I like the whole analysis, but at least NOW you have to take in consideration that you don’t need to restart the Django service to get the changes. It automatically compiles the py that have been modified into bytecode (pyc) on-the-fly. Also, the fact that Python has a service that is always ON allows the system (also because it uses compiled bytecode files) to be generally fast/faster than PHP

It takes to show how much gratitude for God I lack. The ordinary things of God’s creation – are things I often overlook, things for me that aren’t worth marvelling at. I guess I keep forgetting that what God has done for me has truly been enough. Instead of making a checklist of prayer requests for God to check off, I should make a checklist of things I’ve often overlooked and forgotten to thank God for =)

Comment on On Attaining a Disciplined Life… by AY

Geo’s caveat is true.

If I may throw in my 2 cents: If discipline in marriage is to be likened to a constant voltage/signal, that is actually not that stable of a system; perturbations from the environment can introduce noise that corrupts the information in that signal. It is my personal thought that consistent and stable discipline in a marriage should be structured like a differential circuit: two signals in push-pull form that respond to systematic perturbations in synchrony such that the integrity of the information is not lost.

Of course, it’s been years since I’ve analyzed circuits in detail, so perhaps this analogy completely falls through… my point is, humans are fallable, so if you count on your other half to bear you up and s/he also cannot stay strong, then the system is overcome with noise. But if both are on the right track, even if the individuals are imperfect, as a pair, the system is at least stable.

we actually talked about that during our bed time sharing… but our married brother (who will not be named, but you already know who it is) said that its true – as long as your spouse is more disciplined than you.

Haha. I think I abide by what I heard in another sermon – “good individuals make good families”.

This review was done in 2010/03 and Yii is a very young and fast growing project. I wonder if you could do a follow up as its been almost 2 years. Maybe you find the docs have improved and I read something about some sort of database scheme migration tool for yii. The number of extensions on the Yii site seem to have grown a lot. I am just starting out in Yii, so I cant say much, but a follow up comparison would be great.

I have a little experience with Yii. Django it’s (obviously) a more mature web framework than Yii (doesn’t mind better or worse) and in many aspects are different… the thing is, for the final user could be no difference if we develop with django in python or with Yii in php, but for those paying the hosting bill, in terms of growing and scalability, I assume could be differences. Anyone has something to say of “resource consumption” (memory footprint, CPU) about this two frameworks?

Thanks for the post really enjoyed it.
I’m a Yii developer considering my first Django app so it helped a lot.

Comment on Evaluating Lightroom 3 vs. Aperture 3 by leehsueh

What I’ve done so far is this: I plug my SD card into my laptop, and import them using Aperture into a new library that I create locally on the laptop. I edit, tag, adjust, share, etc all on the laptop. Then when I’m done, I plug in my external HD, and open the “master” Aperture library that lives on the external. I then import the newer library that was created locally into the “master” library. When that’s done, I select all the photos in library that was just imported, and relocate the master files to a directory on my external HD where I store all my photos. Everything is done within Aperture, so no doing stuff directly with Finder (except for optionally deleting the Aperture library on my laptop after it’s been imported into the “master” library).

Hope that helps. If you have another way, I’d be interested in knowing it too.

Thanks for this very thorough and well written comparison. It was especially useful to me in that I am in exactly the same situation (new MacBook air, app store credit, tons of photos between external hdd and onboard hdd to edit and not destroy and easily move back and forth).
I also chose aperture, with reluctance, mainly because of the one to one and specific aperture courses at my local Apple store, which could also be a consideration for your article.
Lastly, if you could give me some pointers on how you manage your home setup with the Air and HDD, I’d like to know if I can make my workflow more efficient. I think a discussion on that topic would benefit a lot of people in a similar setup to ours.
I’m looking forward to digging through the rest of your website.
