No True "mod_ruby" Is Damaging Ruby's Viability On The Web

  • he reason is that applications built around these frameworks tend to expose themselves directly via HTTP daemons, using libraries such as Mongrel or WEBrick, and then requests from Web servers like Apache need to be proxied through to them, but this feels like a hackish workaround to the fact we lack a proper "mod_ruby."

  • ) Is there / why isn't there a version of mod_ruby that doesn't have the "class sharing" issue? What is the technical impediment?


    2) Is there any immutable reason that Ruby apps couldn't, in the future, be deployed in a PHP-esque fashion?

The deal with shared hosts

  • I'd start looking at that project for people who've contributed and ask if they'd like to earn a living improving the state of affairs.

王晨昀：个人网站为什么要赚钱？ - 中国站长站

  • 式可以创新，但20/80的赚钱法则却不会改变。如果说你要把个人站当做事业来做，靠个人站赚钱，那么就必须去了解网民的习性，除了自己当做站长外，更应该把自己当作一个商人。考虑问题，不应该从主观角度出发，而应该从网民需求出发，做网站不要只求访问量，而更应该关心访问量人群的价值和访问量会产生的收益，一个访问量100IP/天的网站也许能够赚10000元/天，而一个访问量10000IP/天的网站也许只能赚100元/天

Sphinx - Free open-source SQL full-text search engine

  • Sphinx is a full-text search engine, distributed under GPL version 2.
    Commercial license is also available for embedded use.

    Generally, it's a standalone search engine, meant to provide fast,
    size-efficient and relevant fulltext search functions to other
    applications. Sphinx was specially designed to integrate
    well with SQL databases and scripting languages. Currently
    built-in data sources support fetching data either
    via direct connection to MySQL or PostgreSQL, or using XML pipe
    mechanism (a pipe to indexer in special XML-based format which
    Sphinx recognizes).

    As for the name, Sphinx is an acronym which is officially
    decoded as SQL Phrase Index. Yes, I know about CMU's Sphinx project.
