In an RTS game, the absolute last thing I'd want to do is sit there and fiddle with getting salvaged blocks placed in JUST the right spot. It's a good idea, but I can't see the execution being anything but flawed.

The "curried" code seems less readable and maintainable than the original code. Is this like dependency injection where I have to make my code harder to read and maintain to satisfy some technical definition of "loosely"

Developing on the ASP.NET stack is nothing like it was in 2001, or even 2011. I used to loathe ASP.NET, but what MS has done has really emboldened the dev community to contribute some really great OSS solutions.

I'm on campus right now and can download the PDF. I'd upload it, but I don't want to pull an Aaron Swartz. <_< EDIT: Okay here, but I have limited bandwidth so get it while you can: https://mega.co.nz/#!

What's to stop me from getting the 30-day trial, buying all the parts for my new desktop build and then canceling? Nothing, I guess, but unlike Amazon, I don't see myself using Newegg beyond the once every two years to buy system
