Last month, I tried to limit my calorie intake. I lost about 1 kg/week. And I didn't do any exercise, at all. Maybe I'd achive greater weight loss if combined with exercises, though.

Robocode is very interesting if you want to learn AI programming in Java. But for learning the Java programming language itself? Hmm definitely not.

Hmmm... Most iOS devs I see here use their Macs, not OSX VMs running on Windows/Linux PCs. Well I might give it a try, anyway...

A 15 yeard old writing OS, in assembly. That's a pretty impressive feat, I think. Sometimes I envy those people who made such achievement at young age. When I was 15, I'm not interested in learning computer programming yet. Mostly

Somehow this reminds me to John Draper's CrunchBox. Of course, it ran OpenBSD, an open source OS.

As an IT guy (I'm a developer, BTW), I think T model is probably the best model. Technology is progressing rapidly nowadays and we need to know about them in general (the horizontal bar). But we also need to master 1 or 2 (or a few), a

That's why I think UNIX was a very good marketing vehicle for C. In the 1970s, universities began to adopt C. Since UNIX was written in C, academists/students began to learn C, and that was how the rise of C, now known as "th

I do like Python (my work mostly done in Java, though). A few years ago, I was looking for a language with Python-like expressiveness, with system programming capabilities ala C. Seems like Nim is the answer :)

I think this is a fine goal, and I wish Linus a good luck. As a software developer, I'm fine with Linux,I think I can I live with a non-Windows system. Of course the problem is I still play games on my laptop/PC :p

Have you tried MenuetOS, for example? It does have a quite nice UI, TCP/IP support, etc And without any attempt to be 'yet another UNIX clone', I think.
