His stewardship of the Jargon File has certainly not been going well - the terms he's added to the glossary have mostly been crap he's imported from his political circles, and his additions to the appendix have been even worse (eg. look at

Jeff has one of the classic problems of an autodidact - gaps in his knowledge. If you followed along with the saga of SO's creation on codinghorror, you saw him run into these headlong on many occasions. He also tends to pontificate on is

Has any headway been made on the issue of generic programming in Go? I haven't heard anything since the discussion on Russ Cox's blog about it a few months ago ( http://research.swtch.com/2009/12/generic-dilemma.html ). It would be very

I noticed he uses the env trick for his shebang for ruby. I was first acquainted with this for Perl, and I've since more or less stopped using it since it caused about as many problems for me as it solved (funny thing, systems with the per

He's referring to Moose, which is an insanely good object system, which wasn't prevalent at all 18 months ago but is nearly de rigueur in all but a handful of cases today. It's a mashup of CLOS, Perl 6, Smalltalk and a few other things tha

My main beef was with the last bit - ""Infinite length" files allow sloppy, disorganized thinking and bad factoring. Definitions become longer without the discipline imposed by the 1K block boundaries. The tendency becomes to write a 20K fi

Regardless the merits of the language itself, the culture of Forth has some serious issues that cause me to doubt that a skilled Forth programmer truly has a development speed that is a multiple of that of a skilled C programmer. Cf. this

While I'm a bit dissatisfied with the XML bit, any excuse to write a parser is a good one for me! I haven't given the spec for their Markup language a close reading yet, but this seems like as good an opportunity as any to fool around with

While LLVM isn't a fork and doesn't quite fit the model of the gnumacs/xemacs, gcc/egcs, glibc/linuxlibc &c. from years gone by, I do hope the new competition in the free compiler space will spur improvement and innovation in both proje
