   The very definition of being a 'pg' means that they won't want to work for the government, right?

   It's doubly true when I'm positive it's not just my connection being slow. 20 megabits down should be plenty for youtube.

   For a computer generAted voice it is impressive, but certainly not good enough. I'd rather hear from a real developer hands down, it doesn't even have to be voice talent! Just a human.

   The voice in their introductory video is absolutely like nails on a chalk board. The person talking doesn't have any idea what they are saying and it shows. It actually sounds like a robot. Am I the idiot because I didn't know it was just c

   Are you saying that gmail is "open source" then? hotmail? I think they are probably talking about the code your browser is executing.

   Yeah I definitely think there is value in a unifying algol-like syntax. Going between JS and VB.NET is easy on the brain.

    It's very pragmatic, and very python. I appreciate it for sure. 3 still seems really far off from the wide adoption standpoint.

    I work in vb.net everyday at work. Maybe my brain is melting, but I don't hate it nearly as much as I used to. My previous .net experience was c#, so I think I just had to retrain some habits out of my fingers. Also, voted for python. Lovin

    this feels silly, but is this opening an area for a new startup to clone them? They'd only be down one exit option. Albeit a very big nice exit option, but there are obviously people that would use their product.

    I think he's going to get a lot of grief for that (his Lisp hating) here, but it's hard to disagree with "most people (will) struggle with it". I think the point is that most people will just tell him (me, also) to suck it up and learn it a

    Yeah, I think the point of his comment was that "deployment" in the title is misleading.

    It felt like it cut off at the end, am I missing something? Quite enjoyable read, it'd be fun to see Knuth play the organ, he should sell tickets!

    I think it sets a time you will be up by, you just might get woken up earlier. Heck you might even be on time to drop your kid off if you can get that little bugger out of bed as well. :)

    I can't help but think that not having Fox News in Google's search results will only improve said results.

    I spend a lot of time staring at my iPhone's screen, and for Python/Ruby/bash? I'm sure the processor is powerful enough to write some useful things. I think the real problem is input. Would it be enough to have a "hacking mode" software ke

    I think the standard argument would be that the average programmers are using average languages, so popularity is a horrible measuring stick for powerful languages.

    It's like making a disarming face and smiling lightly while saying it, it makes it an obvious joke?

    For some reason Gmail came immediately to mind. I know it doesn't seem flashy or amazing these days, but I think it was the first one that really convinced me that web apps were here to stay. I have no idea what they used though, tons of ja

    Absolutely, I think the addition of a quad core chip in the iMac is a good move too. I know quite a few people that hovered in that area between iMac and Mac Pro, this seems like a great push in the right direction to close that gap.

    I know! Right or wrong, Apple has got to love this, they have a cult following of "cool" people. I totally appreciate the sex appeal of the hardware.
