Problems with TDD

This is the place to comment on my essay "Problems with TDD." In that essay I pointed out that there's still very little evidence that TDD is an effective development technique. I explained why TDD was not a good technique for me, and made the stronger claim that TDD is a weak development technique because it does not include essential unit tests. To show that it wasn't because I don't understand or practice TDD well enough, I pointed out worked-out examples done with TDD by two of the leading TDD experts. They contained implementation weakness which were not identified by TDD nor even mentioned by the implementors.

100,000 tasklets: Stackless and Go

This is the place to leave comments regarding my essay 100,000 tasklets: Stackless and Go. I repeated a timing test from Go using Stackless and showed that Stackless was faster than Go, yet Go should have the advantage of being a compiled language designed for just this task. I also questioned why the performance of the Go compiler was interesting, given that it seems to be slower than gcc.
