The posters do not seem to understand you. Don't worry. At least I think I do. Can you post which are your preferred tools, which technology you'll use to solve the problems?

I read "self-assessment" as: "how good I think I'm with the language" and/or "how much I think I know of the language"

It depends on the subject. I need to read -preferably examples- to learn/evaluate a programming language, and, obvoisly, you'll look for videos in order to learn/evaluate a GUI.

Maybe you need to find a real-world problem to solve using code, instead of learning for the sake of learning. Maybe if you get a job? maybe an internship? or you can volunteer on a charitable organization to make/enhance their web s

It is a epic history based on a novel philosophy. The philosophy defines "right/good" values based on objective observation of reality, and then concludes that the top value for a being with reason is it's own life. So g

How much time and money are europeans spending on this? the best way to deal with this is not having it in the first place. VAT itself is a really bad idea.

Playing devil's advocate, Amazon should have the liberty to choose what to sell. Obviously, they cannot abuse, bad publicity is bad for sales, but in this case -IANANES- (I'm not a native english speaker) the examples sound bad. &

finally somebody pushing me into trying lisp (scheme). Some honest questions to lispers... a) isn't 'eqv?' leaking abstractions? there are other parts of lisp where the explanation of the behavior is: "pointers"?

question: bad luck in chess? I do not get it. Maybe I'm simplifying, but the program which gets deeper in the movement tree, should always win.

Thank you very much m0nastic, it's a great explanation. Now I can see the mathematical elegance of the haskell code. An explicit algorithm of the same (pseudo)code (using a mutable list) could be: function qsort(list) if li

Thanks. As I said in my comment I know my ignorance and I'm looking for enlightenment (my confession didn't stop the downvotes though) I do not "see" any clear algorithm in the code (no step-by-step procedure). I see rec

"C" is a thin layer over assembler language. BASIC (if remember correctly, has no pointers) so it is far from assembly. BASIC seems close to Python in this regard.

If your car has not ABS, you can slow-down without losing directional control by using the engine. In a slippery slope, if your wheels block (because of braking) you lose the ability to turn to avoid obstacles.

I do drive a stick-shift car, and I've also driven (rental) automatic cars. A stick-shift get you way much closer to the engine. A stick-shift driver can show it's emotions via the engine. stick-shift invites more aggressive drivi

I remember that understanding pointers requires a special mental effort, it changes your head, and then can be used to clearly separates programmers who can think in pointers and programmers who don't. In this regard, "pointers&qu

This is really good. It is not receiving the deserved attention/upvotes on HN... <sarcasm?> Make a game of it, maybe with flock, and you'll be on the front page for days... ;) </sarcasm?>
