I know this doesn't add much, but... that is awesome. It would be cool to have this with a lot of other artwork, but I can't imagine a better subject than TGoED as a teaser.

This has such potential, but ALL kinds of problems with the website navigation and display (at least in latest Chrome on Linux). Am I missing if there is some sort of audio download somewhere?

The output in their screenshots look nice, but it looks like there are some cases that aren't handled as cleanly as I suspect LilyPond would render them. In the "Praeludium 10" screenshot on their website, look at the first

Not sure how this fits in with HN, but since it's here... there was a great documentary made a couple years ago on the whole series of events that led up to the final standoff and the aftermath: http://www.imdb.com/ti

I think the first two are, indeed, fairly simple from a technology perspective. CTOs in government (or whatever other role is responsible for making the data in question available) isn't simple or technology-related. From my perspecti

That's actually the most verbose k code I've ever seen (but probably also the most reasonably readable)...

I wonder if he had Jack Johnson's pockets behind it...? (they're neighbors and long-time boys). It's obvious enough that the normal wave pool flapper / "pump-and-dump" approach doesn't give you a tube. I

That is incredible -- you could make surfing a "thing" anywhere away from the coast. I'm curious how they did it, and how it differs from traditional wave pools... maybe a better understanding / implementation of the ph

By "convincing", what sort of delay would you be looking at on reasonably powerful hardware? Enough to fool the ear into thinking it really was real-time? As a side question, are the sorts of modeling / math that would be do

Has anyone tried to get a Clojure-in-Clojure on the JVM working? Similar to PyPy or something of that ilk... I think even Shen (or even some branch of arc, I believe) would be more along those lines?

Also (note that I only went through the slides), it seems like he misunderstands what "All the way down" traditionally means in the context of Lisp. Clojure is different than the lisp variants that embrace this philosophy BECAUSE

Wolfram Alpha does a pretty amazing job of taking an existing graphic and turning back into a graph-able equation... eg: http://www.wolframalpha.com/input/?i=graph+looks+like+batman http://www.wolframalpha.c

I would agree with the characterization that it's moving up the stack... but it does seem to (without saying it explicitly -- not clear whether that's conscious or not) start to overlap heavily with an existing space [1]. How wou

To be fair, sports content is also already heading in the direction other content is taking. I have NHL Gamecenter Live, for instance, which lets me watch all games timeshifted, select the home or away announcers, watch only the highlights

Would be nice to have DDL for various databases included for each one. Fun time-killing resource, though.

One problem I have with the "you don't see what I see, just trust I'm right" line is that there's no way to refute it -- short of an outside, independent party providing a different compelling analysis and interpret

There are several attempts -- some more, some less successful -- to refactor, improve, and extend Emacs as a platform and editor. (One of the more interesting ones, in my opinion, is GuileEmacs, which is an attempt to use Guile Scheme as a
