I first came into contact with stackoverflow like many of you have by finding their posts in google searches when you need a quick programming answer. I was a little wary of the site because I thought it might be another roseindia type site. When I looked a little deeper I saw that unlike sites like experts-exchange, this site was a free community driven “question and answer” site. In addition, you can join and get badges for achieving various milestones on the site. Finally, a lot of answers are really, really good, like programming mentorship good. The Q&A’s cover the whole spectrum of programming. From specific language questions to general career questions, stackoverflow has it all. Anyway, I love participating, earning badges and answering questions. So basically stackoverflow is kinda like a foursquare except you actually do something besides show up for a badge.

Ok, after disabling/reenambling plugins and all the usual IDE troubleshooting BS tasks. I reallized the problem was with parsing my maven pom.xml file. Still not sure what caused it, but openining the IDEA specific .ipr file fixed the issue and the maven project opened correctly.
Scratches head but grateful

I love the fact that in the past 2 years, Netbeans have been the “most improved IDE” in the dwindling Java IDE market. Having said that, it’s also a minor annoyance to keep downlaoding the next stable release constantly. It seems like there is a new “release” every 10 days. I barely had a chance to take the wrapper off of 6.5 and now I see 6.5.1 is available. Jeeze. I’ll give them credit for having the sexiest splash startup though.
Famous last words I posted on twitter today, “been (surprisingly?) productive today. I’m going to finish ahead of schedule ” No sooner did I say that when Jetbrain’s IDEA started to flake on me (see above). At first I thought it was a disk issue (logs pointed to the vfs) , so I wasted an hour or 2 going down that path. Disk is fine OSX disc permissions are fine…etc. I’m looking at other possibilities but I do know that I don’t have to stop development since this a maven project that lives in our subversion repositoriy. This is the point where all the whining and b**tching about doing things The Maven Way is silenced in favor of the pure joy of using a “standard” project structure . Both IDEA (as of 8.x) and NetBeans can open Maven Projects as IDE projects with all the classpath info intact. So as I wait for the Netbeans 6.5.1 to download I know that I should be ok to pick up where I left off. If this had been in some IDE specific project structure, this would have been a real pain in my@$$.
Peace,

Attended DevNexus 2009 in Atlanta last tuesday and wednesday and it was great. Neal Ford lit the place up in his keynote and his TDD session. Definitely one of the best bang for your buck in terms of software conferences. Most of which have not figured out there is a recession going on. At 185.00 , even a street programmer like me could attend. The Atlanta Java Users Group did a great job in setting this up.
… with the fakers , the wannabe players, the non-shot callers and the never-will-be ballers. Mofos talking about the the end of Java need to sit they butt down and just listen. Java is not the best programming language out here but it’s still better than yours. I know I been away for way too long and nobody except the Java Posse, no one seems to be holding up the f**king J banner. Well I’m back now. Haters, weep.
