Locomotives and ComputersPerfect combination! created Thu May 21, 2004 8:55 PM CST [2004/5/21 20:55 CST] permalink WS-Performance (a.k.a WS-Slowness)Web Services Performance (WS-Performance) provides policy assertions that can be used to describe Web service performance characteristics and in particular provides set of metrics for already existing Web Services specifications. One of the most important concerns when composing Web Services is impact on performance of each specification. Therefore if there could be a synthetic indicator of performance impact of each specification it could help to automate estimation of composed Web Services performance and that is the role of WS-Performance to provide framework for such estimations. This specification composes especially well with WS-Goodness to provide Web services that are both good and of reliable performance and although currently may be a bit slow (as all Web Services ...) but WS-Performance helps to estimate how fast (or slow) they are! created Thu April 01, 2004 8:55 PM EST [2004/4/1 20:55 EST] permalink Warm, Cold, And Warm Again in Arizona ...

When visiting make sure to lose some pennies down deep in a gravitational hole or even your head when T Rex is checking how tall you are ... And soap bubble machines were also quite good fun (maybe even more fun than XSOAP - for children at least). created Sat September 13, 2003 23:15 CST [2003/9/13 23:15 CST] permalink Flower That Blossomed For MeFlowers and other plants did not seem to do too well with me ...

I just can not stop to wonder where are Java blogs of such caliber that goes into such details and are written not by users but by creators. Java.net seems to be under control of "How-To" writers (exactly opposite to what Chris is doing), evangelists, SUN enthusiasts, and marketing specialists. Not exactly what I would call "The Source For Java(TM) Technology" and engineers seems to be lacking sorely from "a diverse group of engineers, researchers, technologists, and evangelists at Sun Microsystems" that was supposed to propel that site. So where is SUN hiding all these Java engineers? Please let me know if somebody knows where to find them ... UPDATE: maybe other companies that also work on Java are more open? What about IBM, BEA, or other leading Java companies... ? Do their engineers blog (or are allowed to)? One has to admit that Microsoft seems recently much more open and interesting place than ever before ... And unfortunately James Gosling posts about Zen and his grandmother even though very inspiring does not count as in-depth technical insights ...). And yes, I am impressed that this blog has now RSS feed (took only few weeks?). created Tue August 26, 2003 10:55 AM EST [2003/8/26 10:55 EST] permalink Checking validity of server public key with OpenSSHIt was not obvious how to compare key signature when you access new host (or one that was upgraded say from SSH2 to OpenSSH). Easy way to verify keys is to compare key signatures (this assumes you have trustful channel to get those signatures) still after login you can do some simple verification: $ ssh-keygen -l -f /etc/ssh/ssh_host_key.pub 1024 bf:b2:5c:4a:84:be:23:29:0a:aa:33:18:8f:55:f3:34 foo@newschool.cs.indiana.edu but wait (!) there is possibly more keys: $ ssh-keygen -l -f /etc/ssh/ssh_host_dsa_key.pub 1024 08:27:15:2b:d0:6b:b4:a1:c9:c4:a2:89:c9:98:a7:3a /etc/ssh/ssh_host_dsa_key.pub $ ssh-keygen -l -f /etc/ssh/ssh_host_rsa_key.pub 1024 b9:62:0d:a9:df:66:43:e4:97:3d:b8:a0:b2:63:52:8c /etc/ssh/ssh_host_rsa_key.pub still what bothers me: why there are three separate keys and not just two?

If you replaced services by components in the statement above would it not sound like something familiar? Maybe the way to look on this is that Web Services becomes uber components: components that are not only distributed but work for internet scale applications. created Fri August 15, 2003 11:55 PM EST [2003/8/15 23:55 EST] permalink MicroLogger: dependable loggingIf you need to add logging to your application without worrying about right version of log4j or commons-logging on CLASSPATH use MicroLogger.
