To be honest, the only mobile application distribution site which will likely matter in a year will be the iPhone AppStore. That doesn't seem likely to me. As popular as the iPhone is and will be, the millions of Blackberries and Palms a

Love the comments at the bottom. Especially: We don’t "all know that men hate to ask for directions," Rebecca. This is a stereotype created to protect women from the embarrassment that they are poor map readers. A man reads a m

AH, ok. The postings to elance.com, etc, are for people to write ads for you. Gotcha. That's no problem. I think Elance even has a category for writers and marketing-type stuff. You might also try Craigslist job postings.

Whitehat? Maybe I misunderstand what you're asking. I thought you were just trying to find places to announce a new online dating app - am I wrong? OT = Off Topic.

Uh, not borderline, friend. Posting announcements like this on elance.com and the like would most definitely be spam, and most definitely unwelcome. Why not announce to various blogs and tech-news aggregators? TechCrunch, TechMeme, Slashdo

But see, that's the point - C++ is intended to be multi-paradigm, and MS made it one-dimensional. Stdlib and Boost both take advantage of multiple paradigms while the MFC is a framework prison whence there is no escape.

My latest woes were in trying to take a program written in a Modern/Standard C++ style and build in some existing sources that were written for MFC. Talk about a black hole of tool-chain hell...

Emacs works nicely on Windows now too, and with a decent installer.

We've also got a strong contingent of anti-MS ranters. I've been having to work in MFC recently for a client, and boy... If you ever needed a reminder why some people dislike C++ so much, just work with MFC. It's one of the worst bastard

I really hate to say this, as much as I like object oriented programming but, I really think we might be better off if we went back to procedural programming for the bulk of the applications that we write and left the object

Arguing between 3 or 4 clicks doesn't change anything. You're wrong. And besides, the argument isn't between 3 or 4 clicks. It should be no more than 2, and preferably one . There are a lot of problems with beginners and lisp

That's the whole point - they know they want "Lisp" because of something they heard someone say, or because of something they read. That's all they know. Expecting someone to understand the Lisp ecosystem before getting started is unreaso

Then maybe this should be the first of 3-4 links on lisp.org. A newbie is not likely to find this (I know I didn't know anything about Lispbox when I first started, although to be fair, I'm not sure it was out at the time).

The comment was there is no canonical Lisp implementation like there is for Python and Ruby True. But still, try to find a link anywhere on lisp.org (let alone the front page) to any implementation of lisp. The shortest path I co

There is always a "top" when trading dollars for hours. I think this is the key thing. As much as I dislike Steve Pavlina, he understands this. See #1 here: http://www.stevepavlina.com/blog/2006/07/10-reasons-you-shou...

You don't have to "learn an industry", you only have to be made aware of a problem in enough detail for you to solve it. That can be done by learning an industry, but that's the expensive way. Cheaper is to have broad first-hand experience

I don't know that my title was editorializing. The data presented in the study is obviously flawed, and the way it was reported was even worse - largely caused by innumeracy (at best). I'll delete it though, because on second though, I agr

Ok, but, still: why broccoli? At first blush it looks similar to Arc (granted, I don't know much about Arc) or any other implementation of Scheme or Common Lisp. What's special about Broccoli?
