I'm one of the guys that uses Emacs, so this is purely anecdotal, but I'm really waiting for an Emacs with updated fundamentals. At this point I don't really care whether it is using Guile, Common Lisp or Clojure. I do like this guy's goal

I know "me too" is bad form but since upvotes to pestaa's reply can't be seen this is the only way I can show encoderer that more people would be interested in more examples. (Blog it up if it would be too big for a reply.)

Yes those browsers are available. Chrome has a "request desktop site" option and my personal favourite, iCab Mobile, has an extensive list of agent strings (custom ones can be added as well) that can be set.

You need to remove the trailing '>' from your link (or don't put it between angle brackets). Going by that page perhaps I should start a dutch coffee house in NY! I wonder if there are many Starbucks in Scandinavia? I know of only one

Yes, it is probably the declaration order which confuses me.

By the looks of it I'm guessing gnuplot. Here's some other graphs generated by gnuplot from when I still played EVE: http://imgur.com/vsNoH & http://imgur.com/2pleo

My first programming language where I used pointers was 68000 and they were easy for me to grasp, but for some reason it was harder when I started using C and everytime I get back to C or C++ I need a little refresher. For me it is the synt

If it works like xmonad I'm not really interested. I don't like xmonad's approach to tiling wm's (mostly the master / slave window thing).

There's also an awesome video of that descent: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=t-BwcDNsbmw Or: http://www.esa.int/esaMI/Cassini-Huygens/SEMKVQOFGLE_1.html (check the hires download!)

Nitpick: the official name for "Holland" is (The) Netherlands. Holland actually denotes only a part of the country and a lot of dutchmen do not take kindly to being called a "Hollander". http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Holland

In that case, the second best thing would be cutting down on beef consumption and treating it as the luxury it is. So eating that nice medium rare once every two months instead of once a week. (I don't know anything about your consumption,

Just to chip in on the tiling window managers: i3[1] is a really nice one which doesn't need a lot of configuration. Since switching from Window Maker, which I had been using for 10+ years, it has been the only window manager that didn't m

The implication with wiretapping (and the NSA acronym) is that it is about security and safety against criminals and terrorists. I've always wondered how much of a business advantage it is to be able to tap into the world's biggest VoIP ne

Emacs is better in this regard but I find Emacs's need to consecutive key presses (or a key press followed by a command) to be longwinded. These consecutive key presses ("chords") are just there to provide default bindings and are one of

You don't have to make Vim your primary editor although if there's any chance of having to muck around on other people's servers some basic vi skills would be welcome. By the sound of it Vim might just not be your thing. I switched to Ema

Yes, sorry to be unclear. When Emacs 23 was released I took a good look at my config and noticed that a lot of things I had added over the years weren't needed anymore. Looking at the new features in Emacs 24 I expect my config to shrink ev

Depends on the member country. Here in The Netherlands after an unfavorable referendum we just renamed the issue, put a new cover on it and pushed it through without a referendum two years later.

Same here but with every new Emacs version I can cull a good bit from it. Starting from Emacs 23 it has decreased by at least 50%.

Sublime Text definitely runs that risk by not being open. Look at Textmate.

If you were in this position I could try and help. Lisp is by far my favourite family of languages and any new success stories would be great. However, and this answers your second question, I did not understand why this question was impor

Is this really a position you're in right now? I'm mostly Common Lisp focused and just by being part of the community I see enough successful examples come by. I'm on mobile right now but if you want I can post some examples later.
