Still, I'd love to get a job using Common Lisp, which I haven't really touched since I studied. Why can't I do that? Because, in the words of Drew Crampsie (paraphrased): Lispers do not look for Lisp jobs. They look for work to do and do

Don't miss Pascal Costanza's opinion in the comments, to put things in perspective from an expert Lisper: My impression is that you [haven't used] neither Common Lisp nor Scheme on a regular basis, and/or in a considerably sized software p

I agree with "I hope we can grow and enjoy God's love together." being a little freaky to tell someone online.

I wonder if "god" faired so poorly because it was in lowercase, as it fails the first advice: "Be literate." Christians are careful to use it as a proper noun, God. So if the word christian faired well, and god did not, it seems like i

With the fruity style, keywords seem to render white (on a white background) so they go invisible. Is this intentional for black backgrounds as you mentioned? If so, changing to fruity should change the default CSS.

I'm not going to give you any one advice on what to do, as I think any advice someone can give you will always be biased. Those that feel they did not enjoy their life too much will say "stay in school, enjoy life". Those that probably en

I kind of disagree with "F productivity." One thing is to enjoy your life, and another is to piss it away.

It's also the reason that the time of day you mail your DVD back has no effect on when you receive your next one. Huh? Sure it doesn't matter if you send it before the last pick up of the day: Netflix will receive and ship a DVD the next

I think #1 can be generalized (or re-phrased) to not having enough time/money. In other words, if you sacrifice a day job to take the time to start your startup, you do not have financial stability to support your family. If you keep the

It's interesting to see that some developers really are okay with accepting XML for what it has become, thanks to tools/abstractions that make it easy to cope with. I don't think they actually feel as if they are coping though, but rather

Are there any articles explaining what needs to be done for a startup to be become independent again? I find it interesting that they can keep the StumbleUpon brand with no problem. I assume it all depends on the terms of the acquisition.
