Ten years from now for all we know we could all have so much cheap storage and bandwidth and good, open p2p software that all coders get to archive their own full copy of github's repos. So the focus should be on getting today's j

You might be wrong even for a planned city: individual cars are convenient, fast and safer than public transport (picture women and minorities who get harassed--human drivers are going away fast and people's bigotry are not). Experts r

Oh! I had so much need of this, if only it were ClojureScript.

The GPL allows you to modify the source and provide a service on a public server without having to share your modifications.* But I understand if you prefer a more permissíve license. Lots of people go with MIT License, it's very short

Why EPL? I use Clojure everyday and I know why it is EPL'd, but I wish it was another license since it's incompatible with the GPL. Couldn't you consider a GPL-friendly license? It sets the tone for the community.

I wish every lib had a brief structure and interpretation overview like this. Having read this through, I've gone from wanting to use DataScript somewhere to forming an idea of how parts of it could be fitted to my cljs on node.js cli

I think there might be a positive market dynamic overall for the original game makers to keep a cut: it would encourage more games to be made moddable, especially indies, who would look to an actual extra revenue instead of the unverifiable

Maybe having someone pay for their sex is the way they have found for external validation for their sex change? Surely surgery and reassignment can still become much better technically, but the real problem is cultural, with society having

The Little Schemer actually teaches you Scheme from the ground up, and as a Clojure Programmer myself I'm feeling right at home.

Since you're asking the community, it would be nice to later make the results public.

You really don't have to get caught up in consumerism to enjoy a city hub life, though I know it's hard and I've been there. If you're entirely happy about your small town friends, I'd say staying might be a good id

But you can't do all empiricism yourself so you introduce a human element middle-man between your skepticism and truth. There's no science in a vacuum.

I'd consider 11 tasks for at least $50/mo. for the foreseeable future an interesting investment, at the least.

That's a bleak outlook to have. Like the author said, you can always just go for graphical toolkits and ignore terminals. Whereas, embracing unix and terminals, I personally find it an empowering and frugal part of the computing stack:

"If you do still want or need to make a terminal application that is interactive rather than just being a command-line tool, what is the best way to go about it? You should write it inside Emacs, using Emacs Lisp, and run it as an appl

Geopolitically, the stalemate's veracity would have to be assessed with either the same player trying to win with each of the nations, or playing it out with all computer players. As it stands, pitting a very good Civ player against th

I see the argument that Emacs Lisp is what we have and works fine floated around by many Emacs veterans, but I wonder if they realize the unrealized potential (opportunity cost) of keeping Guile Scheme out (as Stefan seems to prefer, wherea
