For those using Node.js, the same is var len = Buffer.byteLength(a_string, 'utf8')

WebGL is mentioned on that page. I'm not sure if it was updated since you looked. "Conclusion: Not ready*. Waiting for Internet Explorer 8, Firefox 3.6, Chrome 4, Opera 10.5 to expire"

"This can get sloppy." Indeed it can. I am a fan of flow-js however. It has really helped me to avoid getting sloppy in Node.js. http://github.com/willconant/flow-js

The big question is if Heroku will suddenly support a fairly large number of long-lived connections to a Node.js hosted app, and how pricing would work. Developing real-time apps and custom servers are how Node.js really shines. A WebSock

I'm curious about the "fanout" name which immediately made me think of a message broker like RabbitMQ on the backend somewhere. I guess "fanout" here means 1 client to fanout.js to N >> 1 other clients. There are a number of simila

Redis has native pubsub for a few weeks. A client can subscribe to channels by name or pattern, and publishers can publish messages to channels. The ruby, python, and node.js clients support non-BLPOP pubsub. We are starting to see some lay

I fully admit to having no idea what this refers to, but I'm scared anyway.

Wow! That was really neat! As someone who witnessed the events of 9/11 in NY from across the river in Hoboken, NJ this was fairly terrifying too. I was not expecting to have that association when I clicked the link!

Somewhere Jodie Foster just threw off her headphones, jumped off the hood of her car, and frantically went to investigate. She won't find much. (hint: 3-D, not 2-D).

Nice, good to see more people coming to Node.js. These things are like the modern "Hello, World!". Here's one I hacked up in 10 minutes. It's 40 LOC. http://gist.github.com/366590 The big problem with this is that it's just one server.

Suggestion: temporarily disable the "next reel" button for a duration of time proportional to the frequency of my clicks thereupon. Make me watch the reels instead of trying to satisfy my urge to see "what's next?"

I see. My (wrong) understanding was that EM used a thread pool to do file I/O like Node.js. It appears to add the file descriptor to the event loop's watch list.

by BrianHammond 17y ago
Honest question: is there a purely event-driven I/O framework (no threads anywhere)? The one that a lot of people have gotten excited about recently is Node.js and that uses threads for file I/O (libeio).

I learned Tcl back in college (say 15 years ago) and have not used it since. However, while investigating things like EM and Twisted, I for some reason thought of Tcl. I (and others [1]) asked on the Tcl mailing list about creating a "C10
