Are there good Java tools for helping to identify memory leaks?—@ndw
@masteinhauser @dehora It’s clearly powerful. I’m not sure how to use it to figure out who’s not freeing what, though.—@ndw
@ndw @dehora I don't remember exactly any more, but the site has good tutorials to track it down. Need to know app details too.—@masteinhauser
@ndw it seems you solved it but anyway: we had good results with YourKit http://t.co/DtNkntCE free for open source projects—@rdeltour

@grtjn #xmlprague We will use different catering company for coffee this year. It would be really hard to brew worse coffee then in 2012.—@jirkakosek

The only reasons I can think for having a character max on password is 1) you're storing it plain text, or 2) you have a shitty hash algo—@lmorchard

“@ndw: @xmlprague @jirkakosek @grtjn That was coffee!?” Now, really. Yanks are not allowed to complain about coffee in Europe!—@aljopainter
@aljopainter but it’s supposed to be hot, dark, rich enough to eat with a fork, and strong enough to dissolve the spoon. #expectations

Number of open issues on the XML Calabash project at github: 0. Status: WIN—@ndw
@ndw I hate to be that guy: I added a new PR. Nothing critical though, just hoping it gets in 1.0.7. Congrats on the 0-issues btw!—@rdeltour
@ndw Is there a new Calabash release pending? We want to update the oXygen connector and I want to get the latest version before #xmlrague
—@georgebina
.@georgebina Yes, I’m planning to release XML Calabash 1.0.7 tomorrow. For testing purposes, grab 1.0.6; nothing but bug fixes in ‘.7—@ndw

Man. I’m totally stumped about 1Password suddenly not working. Even my backup can’t be opened with my passphrase.—@ndw
@ndw your issues just when I was thinking about using it on iDevices + Mac. I'll follow with interest what more you tweet about 1password.—@koalie
@ndw It happened to me years ago; I thought I was stupid not to remember my own password... so it may be a bug! Anyway, I use bento now...—@ivan_herman
@laurendw @ndw try the HTML version with your data dir - has JS implementation of the encryption (1Password Anywhere I think it’s called)—@fidothe
