Is there anyway to check in multiple times per day? For example I'd like to checking once per 30 minutes of uninterupted, focused work.

It's worth mentioning the GAPS diet here I think: http://www.gaps.me/ . It seems that autoimmune/inflammatory problems are being associated with more and more diseases.

I actually find parsing to be a better example of Applicative than Monad.

Any figures on how your body composition has changed over that time?

Yes perhaps categorising would be better?

I read Jeff Hawkins book On Intelligence recently. Would these observations fit with the idea of visual data being passed up the hierarchy of the cortex far enough to be recognising objects as obstructions, but not far enough to be consciou

For all those interested in emacs haskell mode this http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=E6xIjl06Lr4 is about the best screencast I've seen covering the new stuff the Chris Done wrote. I'm using emacs prelude and it's a great environment right

This must be something to do with the way they've set the transitions up (i.e. they've built in some delay). I've had no performance problems with d3. Do you mean when the tooltip fades in or something else?

The solution I use is the one I mentioned to Armin on twitter: https://gist.github.com/2994781 It's not really idea that a synchronous connection doesn't have notification of a connection failure, but this has been working fine for us for

I'd hardly characterise coffeescript generated js as difficult to debug (even the OO flavoured bits). My experience and that of most others I've seen online is that the mapping from the js that you debug back to the coffeescript that genera

Slides here: https://raw.github.com/strangeloop/2011-slides/master/Lindsa... Well worth a read and they also lead me to https://github.com/progrium/ginkgo which looks like some very abstractions for building services like the ones on th

This looks a lot like Functional Reactive Programming from the haskell world... Anyone who knows care to comment on how similar they are?

Which FRP library would that be?

I'd say that used to be true for me but the pyramid guys have raised the bar when it comes to docs in the last few years - they're simply fantastic!

I'd also recommend "The perfect health diet" [1]. Awful title but the book is superb, easily as good as Taubes, practically every paragraph has references to studies. [1] http://perfecthealthdiet.com/

Thanks for the link, I remember reading it a while back. Have you played with the cloud haskell stuff at all? I seems you were able to achieve most of what you wanted with STM channels for combinatorrent - do you think that the presence of

Can anyone comment on writing erlang style apps in Haskell? Haskell appears to have many of the required ingredients: Cheap multi threading, immutability and the Cloud Haskell[1] framework, with the added benefits of speed and the awesome t

That's interesting. I've just really started paying attention to the effect that my constant (almost compulsive) "internet checking" behaviour has on me and I'd be very interested in the steps you've taken to halve your addiction (if that's

I have just finished http://perfecthealthdiet.com/ which is probably the most comprehensively research backed book (that's also easy to read) on nutrition I've read. (I include the excellent Good Calories, Bad Calories by Gary Taubes in t

My point is that if the article is asserting that "fake chicken" is worth eating, some coverage of the heath implications of doing so would be warranted in my view. I am merely commenting on the article and as such I don't feel the need to

Not a single mention here of the health implications of eating manufactured vs real food?

Thanks for the feedback. RE: "high salary doesn't automatically mean high calibre" - you're right, perhaps I've been in finance for too long ;-)

One of the jobs posted says "we pay in kit, holidays and (a little) cash". That screams the complete opposite of a good calibre of advertiser to me I'm afraid. Which is a real shame because everything you've written in the past about the Lo

Agreed, zmq and some form of cross language serialization library (we're using protocol buffers) is a seriously powerful tool to have in your box. There are some patterns that seem perfectly suited to a small piece of haskell at the end of
