The primary quality of prose style is clarity while brevity in an exposition ideally has these three qualities: * Context * Relevance * Cogency

That's similar to the workout program outlined in the book Body By Science . They advocate short high intensity workouts over long low to mid intensity workouts; the reasoning being this: with high intensity exercise you fatigue all three

This looks much more promising than the earlier version, last time it was far too much of a pain to setup, docs were scant, and I didn't like the web server interfaces that much. Good job! I actually want to start playing with this now...

I used to be a fervent seeker of intellectually stimulating "general" forums/communities too. I've found a few and two things are apparent to me because of the experiences: - without specific focus, you get overrun by people that desire "ge

DrScheme (included with PLT-Scheme) is best for learning Scheme IMHO - the different language packs are really helpful, the stepper is AMAZING (using the stepper was the only way I was able to grasp/see a continuation and collector in real

Disclaimer: most of these aren't anything new or earth shattering things that need to be solved. I dislike having a gazillion different Instant Message accounts with contacts that "only use MSN" or "only use AIM". SMS messaging may be a rip

They aren't two separate showers - I'm in the shower for a period of 20/25 minutes but I turn the water to really hot then really cold twice . I expressed that poorly :)

As a long-time Kohana user and developer I think KO3's development model is flawed. Sure, there is a benefit to HMVC - but KO3's implementation of it and homogenization of classes is allowing for too much complexification rather than main

It's all in the head m8. Volition and longevity are difficult to cultivate, to create something takes patience, focus, and dedication. Start out by starting every morning right - I wake up at 6AM (or earlier), immediately take two hot-col

I am always in support of less government - why in the world should a government be in control of the education of children? Society doesn't progress by circumscribing all of it's member entities, it progresses when those boundaries are pus

I tried e-books and they just don't do it for me. Eye fatigue has a lot to do with it and there is something about the physical interaction with a paper book that makes the process feel different. Computers are great for quick reference but

This is an excellent question - one I've been trying to answer for myself for quite sometime. You certainly don't need to go graphics heavy, but having an eye for arrangement, matching color palettes, typography, flow, etc... are all crucia

After resigning from my job at an IP firm, I decided to undertake the learning and use of Dvorak over QWERTY. I got rather proficient at it and like it a lot. Programmer’s Dvorak is particularly awesome – my most often used keys were readil

Sometimes I do... I give my self breaks, I also be sure to not watch television and read books often. It helps. Even when you are off the grid, you can still get 24/7 high-speed internet with bi-directional satellite!

The darkside of internet technology is very interesting... Can you imagine the ingenuity that needs to go into the creation of the software for a botnet? Kind of cool in many ways.

I like PLT a lot - DrScheme is a great environment; the stepper is such a crucial tool, especially since I'm still in the learning stage.

PHP, KohanaPHP; Python; PLT-Scheme; Erlang/OTP; PostgreSQL; Apache, Lighttpd; Emacs; Firefox. Those are the essentials - I'm sure there is more.

The performance increase is still notable though - I would like to see that static LLVM link changed; I like python for its size, speed, and expressiveness.

I could, but only if I felt the products produced value - if anything it would be a great way of selling my own software if I ever did get around to it. My primary interest is not in a web startup though - my true love is Aerospace; I'm ref

I came to a similar conclusion as you have about seven months ago. My conclusion was that 9-to-5 takes far too much time and energy out of my own life; I'm essentially giving all of that time to someone just for the ability to pay bills and

This is good advice and a good indicator of why starting your own startup is the only sure fire way of making off like a founder. I was offered to join the team for an early stage startup a few months ago and they offered 1% with salary upo

This article read more like "I hire plenty of great engineers, why aren't you?" The post could have been more in-depth too, while I can see a point she's getting across, it felt like it was lost in it's expression.

I agree with this statement, I tried doing it from scratch with Yaws; I also tried three different Erlang web frameworks. Installation was impossible on one - it just wouldn't work, the others had out dated documentation and the API was con

Meat and Potato diets should be separated, especially . Starches mixed with proteins (animal proteins in particular) stimulate the stomach to over-produce digestive acids which strain it, and as a result bile needs to be produced to neutra

While one could argue for PHP being a "language" upon which frameworks are built, it really is just a framework. A low level framework that is. Frameworks built on top of it are just higher-level more abstract frameworks. I come from 4+ yea

Good article, I've liked newLISP since I discovered it a few days ago but wasn't sure about it after a few responses to my comment in the newLISP webframework thread... It can easily become a python replacement for me!
