Robert Virding's Lisp Flavored Erlang, which, among other things, does away with records, neatens up the syntax, and enabled Lisp style macros, but is still built on Erlang, and still contains it's high quality pattern matching. Virding is

It's sort of a combination of the two; Lisp Flavored Erlang, for real time control.

One thing that I don't think will ever work is a large intermediate screen as the primary method of switching tabs/pages. It's interesting that you'd say that, because it's not at all what I'd expect. There are two factors you might not b

People have more time for leisure activities in the year 2008. The average work day is about four hours. But the extra time isn’t totally free. The pace of technological advance is such that a certain amount of a jobholder’s spare time is

No, don't apologize, this viewpoint is absolutely intriguing, and I greatly appreciate the discussion. The goal is to make the best tab navigation system, not to trumpet any particular design :-) I especially like your point about identifyi

Consider trying the 'full screen browsing' approach. It's not perfect, but it's helped me a lot, and best of all, it's implemented .

Same time? What happened to traditional hacker hours? Besides, we can't have a competing meetup. That, as my friend says, would be divisive...

I like Tree Styles Tabs, but it seemed to take up too much space for me to consider using. And it wasn't nearly so good at showing the temporal dimension of browsing. Do you think the proposed system would satisfy your desires? It include

On the other hand, Skunk Works managed to hit their budgets time and time again. Why not aim for that?

There was another genetic solution to the problem. They put energy using dampers on all the joints of a walking figure, except one, the neck. After running the simulation, they found the figure, diving head first into the ground, balancing

The article makes me very happy. There's lots of data here. The cost of battery deprecation is $1050. That's enormously useful information to me. I should say that the slow charge is a problem with batteries, but not with compressed air.

The relevant question, for one who does want to produce great work, is not whether grad school is suited more towards conscientious professionalism than truly novel, ambitious work, but whether it is a better day job than your other optio

Are you in the Bay area? I think I can contribute some help; I have a lot of friends that are looking for a space like this. Gabe and Andrew (from Kirkland North) and I have been hosting these dinner parties that attract quite a few people:

On this, I'd like to reference another artistic inspiration of mine, guitarist Robbie Basho. 'I don't try to follow the masters; I try to ask the same questions they asked.'

Yeah, it's a silly title. I'm a bit on a fence about it: it's provocative, and there's a lot of content there, but it seems to have skewed the discussion.
