The IRS doesn't care where your income comes from. They care that it is (1) reported, and (2) correctly valued. They have, for example, rules for reporting bartered income[1]. Barter is certainly not "any other currency" either. [1]: http:

There are an infinite number of circumstances where one would want 'first'. In Lisp terms[1], 'first' is 'car', which, in conjunction with 'cdr'. With that combination recursive logic is regularly implemented. [1] Some Lisps already include

What monitors do you use? I've tried that a couple times now, and always revert to having both horizontal because rectangular pixel shapes were messing up the font rendering.

Your description reminds me of the Target/pregnancy story from a February[1]. The evidence there proves it's possible. The question then: Is Facebook's data as good as Target's? For Facebook, certainly. Can they get away with exposing that

If you have 1000 servers and you're using Fabric to modify your init scripts, then I weep for you. Well before you get to that level you should be using configuration management software (cfengine, puppet, et al.) to handle your servers.

Intent is often irrelevant. If something is shown to have disparate impact on a protected class then it is likely to be ruled discriminatory, and therefore illegal, regardless of intent.

Yes, you'll be typing Nu code in a Nu interpreter. Even though it's a Lisp dialect, Nu was designed from the beginning to be interoperable with Objective-C, so translating between them is easy. (Convert brackets to parentheses and you're 80

Aye, pretty similar. F-Script has some features that Nu does not (like the object explorer), while Nu is the only one that works on iOS. The big difference is heritage: F-Script is Smalltalk and Nu is Lisp.

That's a great example, thanks! I did some looking, and I found a few[1] examples[2] of coroutines in Objective-C, though none of them seemed fully fleshed-out. Even if they were, none were, as you say, nearly as nice as "yield". [1]: http

What language features does Ruby have that Objective-C lacks? It's a bit more succinct, perhaps, but when you're calling out to Cocoa all the time, that succinctness is going to get thrown out the window.
