Ha, I agree with you, really. Reality is crufty and getting things done involves compromise. Still, I think there is value in studying other ways of doing things. For example, my studies of Plan 9 introduced me to CSP, erlang style concurre

You should read the whole paper, the abstract is not enough. Observational studies are extremely sensitive to the methods in which the data is collected. For example I heard about a study linking meat consumption and heart disease. To deter

Plan 9 admittedly sucks in many ways. It has limited hardware support, a weird user interface, and no active community. But also has redeeming qualities that I miss every day that I have to program on linux. In Plan 9 every process has a na

Absolutely, the original justification of the patent system was to get inventers to make their inventions public. However, the inventions which have been patented recently are often obvious and trivial. Amazon's one-click patent is not some

Remember though that the human brain came to exist through the processes of random mutation and natural selection. You _could_ make an airplane by taking a car, making random changes and selecting those that fly the best, but I doubt anyone
