Yes. I think there is also a confusion about what is an ethnic group (breed versus culture).

I think Vernor Vinge tried to imagine something like that in, uh, A Fire Upon the Deep, if I am not mistaken. It was a side theme, I do not think he developed it much.

Looks like I have asked an unpopular question.

Frankly, to me this is like, instead of answering a question, a person starts moralizing. Right? In other words, the difference is not so much philosophic as it is pragmatic? There are atheists and there are militant atheists. I guess what

How is it different from "agnostic"?

I am an atheistic Jew. A Jew can be defined as a member of the religion or as a member of the ethnic group; this often causes confusion.

The story and some of the comments here reminded me of an old joke. What is it: green, whistling, hanging on a wall? The answer is a herring . Wait, how? Why is it green? I painted it green. Why is it hanging on the wall? I put it there

Don't force a good habit, help it grow instead. For example, ask them to fix bugs in a prepared project with a number of subtle errors without unit tests and comments, then another project with good tests and comments. After that, when you

I do. However, I think it may be superficial. I do not think depressed people are overall as successful as the true leaders are, common sense says they may be less successful than the general population.

It is much less practical than adding FP capabilities to C# which is where C# is evolving anyway.

Has it become more acceptable to conflate the two languages in recent years? Either that, or people use it as a shortcut for "the C family of programming languages" which would include mostly C and C++ as well as special-purpose dia

Thanks for the hint. I have not been asking for help (there are plenty of places better suited for this, the Clojure community is very supportive). I was simply sharing my experience which I thought would support the point of view expressed

Speaking of ELPA. For some reason, ELPA did not work for me on MacOsX. I have just bought a mac, have no prior experience with it (my latest experience with an Apple computer is from early 1990s), so that may partially explain it. ELPA on U

Reminds me of one Werner von Braun, no? Germany could be and would be the top scientific and technological nation of the XX century (space research, computers, etc etc) if they had not gone mad. They have and it is not. Still we cannot disc

Another one that does not look like a Soviet relic, or like anything else at all: http://pics.livejournal.com/mi3ch/pic/00324y15 (from http://mi3ch.livejournal.com/1038793.html [ru]). Not that I would use it as a map, exactly...

Or perhaps he would have been fired and the money would still go into the company's pockets.

Quote: it lacks support for arrays and for loops Wow. They still call it Javascript? Could you please point at the docs, to see what kind of language they offer? Thanks!

That's the good parts, not the goof parts, heh. I second the recommendation, but I think it should be the second Javascript book read after the latest edition of Javascript (The Definite Guide, by Flanagan). JQuery follows.

Forcing your sense of humor on your subordinates creates an unhealthy atmosphere. (My reaction would have been different if he had not been a top manager in the company.)

Of course it does not turn it into North Korea. For one thing, leaving North Korea is difficult, changing jobs is not. And nobody is starving. But this "have fun! have fun!" attitude is not healthy at all. As others mentioned, it triggers u
