My that sounds like an idea. Then you can use Canvas or something to build a visual representation of the data.

While I like what I see in SASS and Compass. I'm afraid I won't be able to partake in the excitement as I code in PHP for my day job. And hack in Python during my spare time. Is there any equivalent out there?

Agreed.

That was a great quote. I guess no matter how much you know about the latest and greatest paradigms involved in the art of software. You can never truly become "perfect" if it does not become a part of yourself. And to extend that you can n

It seems the ruby world is getting alot of press these days. Deservedly so, but taking a look at the kind of mind share they have in community it will only be a matter of time until they come with something like iPython.

Upvote for iPython. The best implementation of the Python REPL I've seen so far.

Word...which is strange cuz I've heard that MS is a great place to work in especially for hackers.

Really? Why is that? I always thought Amazon was a great place to work in.

You might want to try Vim.

Oh I agree with you. Use the best tool for the job I say. But man I'm blown away by the OP's example.

But Vim already has those features via omnifunc.

Haha yes, I do remember those times. Now that you've mentioned it another language that fits the description of a Scheme-lite in Java-esque syntax is Lua.

Isn't this how you use closures? I think I've been doing this with my javascript code without even noticing it. :-)

What do you mean by this? Is this the same method of declaring inner functions within the scope of the outer function?

Whilst this is more pythonic I personally prefer Javascripts use of lambdas as more than a means of expression. More like a way of life for the language :-) And that is IMHO what makes it functionally closer to Scheme. Just looking at the w

The only time I see where Python will adopt a lambda that doesn't suck, is the day when the community itself embraces functional programming. At the rate that is going and from what I've read from the commenters of the article. I don't thin

That's exactly how I felt when I first gave Django a test drive.

I love the way Sinatra maps URLs. Ruby's got some gnarly tools for creating DSL's. Always blows me away every time I see Rubyists do their magic.

Might I add that Ubuntu for all its quirks is a very reliable and easy-to-use OS. Oh VIM is always a win in my book.

This is also a good point. Having state actually tends to being a "bad" thing to do. Of course, the entire purpose of the object is to capture some invariant, but an object doesn't make that clear. Many objects contain instance variables th

But how big is too big? I originally coded in Monospace 10. I tried to go 14 but I just found it unpleasantly big. What fonts can you recommend?
