In any given reference frame you have a velocity vector that's some part space and some part time but has magnitude 1. It's just rotated. There's nowhere to "stand still" in the universe. But if you pick a reference

I have to confess that I, as a non-Clojure-speaker, found it much less interesting after seeing that your example was in Clojure. Using less common languages as examples makes it feel like it's in that big world of amusing side project

I don't really see email as any more secure than snail mail right now (which can be taken from your mailbox and read, albeit with stiff legal threats if anyone catches you). There wasn't an appropriate poll option for "I don&

Sure, but it is a valid position. It's what I would like to put, too. I feel about as strongly about encrypting email as I do (did) about encrypting snail mail - not at all.

Different strokes, etc? The Chrome omnibar is my favorite navigational tool I've ever used and I wish it was in every program (maybe that's possible already, I don't know actually). It's the main reason I haven't sw

Initially I was very impressed with Medium: it looked good and had a high rate of good content - enough that I happily assumed that new content Medium was probably going to be good. Now I'm very depressed with Medium. It's filling

"This reaction to Ember just baffles me. Your day job is to build a piece of web software and you can’t take a few days to learn the ins and outs? Presumably you’re in a large team because this project is important and will take some time t
