Wine is a bit different, I'm not 100% sure but it's more like a reimplementation of native calls than anything. But yeah, this is awesome. As a side note, developers who want to make games run on OSX and Linux should just stop tar

I think you really need to chill. What I meant to say is that the environment on Linux systems doesn't do video editing that well at the moment . This doesn't mean that the Linux kernel cannot do video editing at all. Compared

Video editing is one of the few things that Linux really can't do well. Years ago we had problems also in the music production area but nowadays it's much better, there are a lot of awesome projects (Ardour, Soundgarden, Hydrogen,

Javascript... what an odd choice. Definitely not my first choice for a language used to teach programming to beginners, nor to run on embedded systems. ps: I'm well aware there are embedded systems for Javascript and it is being taught

At my bachelor university (University of Bologna, Italy) we used to have Scheme with htdp for the programming 101 course. That's what I did when I studied there but apparently now they (unfortunately) changed it to C++. The day I found

The language itself is actually very simple and writing plugins for lighttable is the opposite of complex, there are amazing tutorials floating around the web. The whole process is simply just manipulating sets of data, it's all about

I'm a pretty fast writer and I never had any problem with LightTable's vim mode. Maybe it's just me though, I don't know.

Not saying I disagree with you, but you mention the "unix philosophy". These last few years I've seen a lot of people repeat that sentence over and over again, but I ask you, what is the "unix philosophy"? Treating

You can also name fns in clojure (map (fn whatever [a] (println a)) [1 2 3]) ps: this code is stupid but I'm too lazy to write useful clojure from my phone, you get the gist

I agree with what you said but I don't see how a heterogeneous dynamic structure is "pretty useless" though

With Clojure it's a bit different cause you want to handle non-locking using atoms/refs/agents/whatever. In my engine you can either a) have the first entity send a message to the object it wants to pick up, then have th

Yes, that's exactly how my ClojureScript prototype worked, the problem is that it wouldn't allow me to use concurrent entities. (Although you could use refs for tag-types instead of individual entitites... an interesting approach

by Morgawr 13y ago
although maybe his real problem was that the entire world was a single ref, and all of the agents would bash on that ref. Having the whole world inside a ref sounds bad... I mean, I don't really know but if you want to take the godma

Even simpler, Unix has a tool called "strings". Call it on any piece of data and it will return all readable strings contained in that data. Works on binaries as well.
