I've been doing some optimization work lately and thought I'd take the new H2 database engine out for a spin. In case you haven't heard, this is the second...

... 10. 25 or less. 9. How many do you have? 8. Depends. How much per word? 7. Just one: yes! 6. More than "You smell funny." 5. At least one in each bar, no...
Yes, it is possible. But if you look at the performance tests published on the H2 website, my results seem pretty much in line, if I'm interpreting them...
Apropos to the discussion last week; I read today a blog entry about moving to Wicket: http://ptrthomas.wordpress.com/2007/03/02/wicket-impressions-moving- ...
... It would depend totally on the driver implementation, since Statement and PreparedStatement are just interfaces. Either way, this looks to me like a silly...

An alternative is to negotiate a fixed- or minimum-price agreement, where the company agrees to pay you at least $x per month. Then, there is no reason why you...
Good point. This would be like a retainer for other professional services and help spread the risk. Fixed cost contracts (which I would only do in very limited...
I definitely like the simplicity of your framework. It reminds me of something though... ah the new @Query stuff in JDBC 4.0 which I remember reading about on...
Eric, We do bi-monthly e-billing. 1st and 15th like clockwork. If the client is not paid up by the next billing all works stops. We find that clients actually...
That's a smart idea. One reason I went for advance payment is my grim memories (previously reported) of getting ahead of the client staff. "All work stops,"...
