What hypocrisy are you speaking of? Why do you feel that his questioning the motivation of war makes Knuth a "staunch liberal?"

Eich also created JavaScript and I don't see a massive push to drop it everywhere. I think these sort of things are an outrage-economy with no serious or lasting effect.

You seem to have a very specific anecdote in mind.

And your assertion is that using Generics would lead to code breaking less often?

What problems do you believe that you'd hit regularly that can't be elegantly solved without generics? I haven't used much Go, but isn't its duck typing implementation appropriate for the most common needs of generics?

I like this post -- it's like an _anatomy of a failed run_. If I may, to split your into groups: Things you don't finish: > - Do your project ideas never get finished? > - If not, is it because of technical issues that make

It's niche and there's not generally great support for portable batteries for macbooks. I'm pre-ordering one because the alternative is making my own.
