I agree with this but also think the OPs sample size may be a bit small :) , look at the timeline for an example.

Is it possible to do a similar construct in python? This is what I'm really after, a Lisp like ability to generate html, sql combined with the rest of the Python language. Perhaps I should be looking into ruby more? or a python parser? I'm

M-x todo-show for recoding what I'm doing :) I use the text commands quite equally. Really need to start using org-mode properly.

Eclipse,emacs and maven works for me. I use the emacs for making quick changes and often end up working within it. Still couldn't go without having eclipse along side though.

Appreciate the comment, this is why I come here :). I've been meaning to- and will, read PG's On Lisp. I saw the benefit in starting with Clojure being: the setup (basically nothing if you have a JVM installed) and the fact that application

Good point. However, using a guide such as Programming Clojure from the Pragmatic Bookshelf is a pretty quick way to try out some of the 'Lispy' concepts. I'm literally beginning the book so cannot comment further but it seems an accessible

I wonder what would happen if the competing apps made an abstraction layer for their APIs to map to Twitters, allowing App developers to develop for both.

A concept I took from the article was how interesting it is to see what people come up with using the API of what is at heart a simple service. I may be bias as this is my personal view of course :)

Thanks, I see you have a couple of my favourite books The C P rogramming Language and Masters of Doom. I'll be reading the rest of your blog. Love the clean design!

I'd love to read more of these code review style posts. Does anyone have any other good ones?

Not very detailed, it only touches on a few library's. The data access issue shouldn't be a huge issue if using the Django model anyway. Worse case scenario - you move to self hosting using the open source version (don't have the link handy

Interesting you say that. I'm fleshing out a design that uses a similar syntax - In python: (html, (body, (h1, "header one text") ) ) To me it's certainly not as painful as writing out html. I'm still working on it - hop

Haha, this actually sums up nicely what I was wanting to say. I'll add - Communities that have trust also have privacy, my friends don't need to know who I vote for or how much I make but thats no reason not to trust them.

Thanks, I understood it uses hash tables - I've done the same myself, but never on such a large scale. This post sums it up: http://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=513259
