   Just a suggestion, but I think a video tutorial demonstrating the workflow advantages would be incredible for the visibility of the project. I, for one, would like to see how you envisioned elnode as a self-contained productive developmen

   Sorry, what exactly makes it "not a real lisp"? Maybe that statement is out of date, considering the addition of lexical scoping in Emacs 2.4. Regardless, it seems like the author is able to build some real things. I know, for example, that

   While certainly anecdotal, I attribute 99% of my opengl knowledge to the extremely comprehensive WebGL 101 videos by emoller. The video was two hours long, but it took me about 8 to get through as I copied code, made changes I liked, and ma

   He means as opposed to having foreign researchers putting out the claims, who could conceivable have less of an ethics barrier, since it's "not their land". Still agree with you though - pretty shameful if true.

   This is what I thought. Somebody in Congress should hire another Princeton professor for a few million to figure out if a browser is, in fact, a crucial piece of a mobile operating system. After grueling research, I bet I can predict the an

   This sounds a lot like AsterData Database, which I know has been around for at least a few years. I'm interested to know if you are able to write queries that define explicit parallelism like in the SQL-MapReduce language extension, and als

   I'm somewhat confused; do demonstrate how quiet it is, they turn off the loud motor that keeps it running?

   Reading through the specs, it seems that it's designed with that in mind - the center of mass is much lower than the center of buoyancy.

    Depends on your definition. In my interpretation, to be considered a line in any number of dimensions, it must be specified by no fewer than two points. This puts a lower bound on the amount of information to specify "lines", a bound strict

    But that's maybe not the best example; wasn't it originally just him? I think GNU+Linux might better demonstrate what you're trying to say.

    With interfaces, it's pretty simple to replicate patterns like a Container<Comparable> or Channel<Reader>, to borrow common Java syntax. Personally, I like how it forces you to think about parametricity whenever you want pol
