  • 01/09/10Pro: Very stable and runs on multiple platforms. Lots of great tools to debug and monitor applications. Simple to write multi-threaded apps that can use all cores on a server. Easy to add 3rd party tools.
    Con: Really easy to write slow and/or bloated code if you don't understand what you are doing (e.g. poor use of Strings).
    pro/con added to Java
  • 01/09/10Pro: I suppose it is better then a kick in the crotch.
    Con: Ugh... Microsoft...
    pro/con added to Axum
  • 01/09/10Pro: Nothing is better than Old Man Perl for writing quick throw away scripts. In a knife fight, perl would beat the other interpreted languages.
    Con: Being so easy and forgiving, it is really easy to write garbage code that is unreadable by evening time.
    pro/con added to Perl
  • 01/09/10Pro: easy and fine for quick scripts.
    Con: slow, unstable, and leaky. stinks under really high load. terrible multi processor/core use. not great for large scale websites without a lot of jerry-rigging.
    pro/con added to Python
  • 12/29/09Pro: At some point the movie ends
    Con: This movie sucked hard... Very disappointing after Casino Royale
    pro/con added to Quantum of Solace (2008)
