Running redis using upstart on Ubuntu

Running redis using upstart on Ubuntu

I've been trying to understand how to setup systems from the ground up on Ubuntu. I just installed redis onto the box and here's how I did it and some things to look out for.

To install:

#!/usr/bin/env python
#
# Converts any integer into a base [BASE] number. I have chosen 62
# as it is meant to represent the integers using all the alphanumeric
# characters, [no special characters] = {0..9}, {A..Z}, {a..z}
#
# I plan on using this to shorten the representation of possibly long ids,
# a la url shortenters

Can you help me understand the benefit of require.js?

I'm having trouble understanding the benefit of require.js. Can you help me out? I imagine other developers have a similar interest.

From Require.js - Why AMD:

The AMD format comes from wanting a module format that was better than today's "write a bunch of script tags with implicit dependencies that you have to manually order"

I don't quite understand why this methodology is so bad. The difficult part is that you have to manually order dependencies. But the benefit is that you don't have an additional layer of abstraction.
