I'm not a huge fan of "+" for string concatenation as "+" is, traditionally, commutative; I like Lua's "..". That being said I like "+" more than "strcat".

Why do you say that the value should be saved at its definition? I realize Java does that (with anonymous classes & final), but allowing mutation of closured state lets you fairly easily write things - like an OO class system, if you wa

"Maybe we want to know the call structure at runtime; in that case, we should capture that as debugging information, or as a reflection feature of the runtime system, but not as a core language design. Let the language implementation use th

The Register's article on this chip ( http://www.theregister.co.uk/2009/10/26/tilera_third_gen_mes... ) makes it sound like there is no FP support.

I agree with everything you say except that "Apple is an exception, an outlier, and a niche." 10 years ago I'd have agreed with you, but I don't think you can say that anymore. Their market share continues to grow, their products continue t

Pretty much. I had erroneously lumped IE 6&7 together, but a few weeks ago I realized that, honestly, 7 is leaps and bounds better than 6.

I guess I see CS theory encompassing PL theory - not that that's correct.

SPJ's not a member of the top CS theorists?

Do you have sources or an article on that?

IE7 doesn't wrap the code in the textboxes. It's displayed on a single line making it hard to read.

I never get these Git vs. Mercurial debates. I don't see why they matter. Pick something you like & are comfortable with & can use well - and then learn that tool well. Linus certainly doesn't care if you think Mercurial's better th
