Applications of Scala Programming language:

According to TIOBE index Scala stands at 34th position with 0.290% rating.However, it has wide and good applications built on it( The list though does not account for anything related to the quality of the languages listed..its just based on popularity).
I read about Scala and was amazed to find out its varied and robust applications,,which is used in many popular applications of today).
Some of the many are listed here:

1>Twitter..this describes the best.
....Also Twitter uses Scala very robustly(as I learnt from this blog as of 2008). May be it has changed now.
2>LinkedIn..this link describes the best.
3>Novell ..See this link
4>Foursquare...Know more from here.
......Foursquare is said to be built almost 100% using Scala(See this Quora link).
5>UBS..and HSBC bank.

Having said all these,,I will also like to add that Scala has two web frameworks developed, namely Lift and Play. Akka actors is good concurrency framework.Eclipse too has good support for it.
Some more applications developed using Scala are given in the following links

Take a look at Jonas Bonér's blog series beginning with Real-World Scala: Introduction
And this link for real world applications too.
On google code I found this out link. Its an application written in Scala for language processing and I like it.

Way to goo..

How to create a bootable USB pendrive in Linux

If it was windows, it would be much easier ...for we have the universal USB installer. In Linux, we can't use that: however, we need not worry, guys have done a great job by creating a much easier tool to do the work. The tool is called gparted. It is a nice GUI tool to do our work. So lets see how we shall do it. >Open the terminal . >Now type: sudo apt-get install gparted ......This will install the tool ...well and good if you had it from before. >Now type: sudo apt-get install-3g ( gparted installed this as default for me...just see if it did for you). >Now open the tool via: System>Administration>Gparted Partition Tool >Now you are almost done....Click the File and choose the drive for the particular USB. >Right click on the drive when it is enlisted. See Manage Flag menu and click to enable boot. >Now go to Partition menu at the top panel and format the drive as ntfs . This will keep the work as pending operation ...click the cor...

Behind the Scenes: How Generative AI Creates Music, Art, and Stories

When Machines Dream We’re living in a world where machines don’t just compute—they create. Generative AI is writing novels, composing symphonies, and painting pictures. But what’s really going on behind the screen? This post pulls back the curtain to reveal how generative AI actually creates —from writing a bedtime story to composing a lo-fi beat. Whether you're a curious creator or tech enthusiast, you’ll see the art of AI through a new lens. What is Generative AI, Really? Generative AI uses machine learning models—especially neural networks—to generate new content based on learned patterns. Trained on vast datasets, these models produce original music, images, and text based on user prompts. 1. How AI Writes Stories (e.g., ChatGPT, Claude) Step-by-step: You give a prompt: “Write a story about a lonely robot who finds a friend in the forest.” The model (like ChatGPT) draws on its training data to predict and generate the most likely next word, sentence, or paragr...

How to find the difference between two files from windows shell

Well I was just wondering how could I see the difference between two files in windows. Searching the net, I saw some softwares that would do the job for me..But I wanted simple and fast not so sophisticated ... I found out we could do using a simple tool...fc..from the DOS prompt. FC is a command to view the difference of two files or set of files.. So the steps are: 1> go the directory where the files are.. 2>type fc first-filename second-filename ....and there you go..You will get the result each different section divided by line of stars.. ...Its simple ...right?? I love it....The following explains the full usage method ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Syntax: FC [d:][path]filename [d:][path]filename [/A][/C][/L][/Lb n] [/N][/T][/W][/(number)] for binary comparisons FC [d:][path]filename [d:][path]filename [/B][/number] FC reports differences between the two files you specify. FC firs...
