I believe words and the concept they represent are important, Homoiconicity is very very important, but the concept is something subjective that you get after working years on it. After programming for a long time in other languages, I had

We don't know yet. That is the idea about research. When the microscope was invented, people made the same question: What is the use of it? Just watching things we already know bigger? That is a recurring question. So much that Aristot

"Apple engineers, do you know who is the target audience for these machines?" I believe Apple knows who is the target audience for those machines better than this man. Pro means "Professional" and that includes Graphic a

The fact is that most of the things on the list are just trivial, but a nuisance to do because it is the boring, not glamorous part of the programming job. For me, the really difficult part of the language is understanding the core concepts

You could use both GUIs and CLIs in the same program. It has been done this way in CAD since the old days. E.g Most people today do not know that Autocad started using text commands for everything you did with your project(in DOS). Those co

You are over simplifying the world. You are doing a mental exercise and reducing everything to a single variable: Talent. So if someone success without talent, you explain it with another monovariable: luck. By the way, for me being talente

You are ignorant of reality, and the first thing that you ignore is that you are ignorant. With Lisp you don't even need to write lisp code. You can write java, c++,c, swift code... using lisp. That is , you can write lisp code without

I will explain it for you. Lisp is hard to master, like playing the violin, but if you master it you can get enormous rewards. Other languages are more like "playing guitar hero", most of the work is done for you and it it way eas

All the time. I have learned very useful tricks over time, like the ability to automate code creation to incredible levels with my own dialects of lisp that makes me hundreds of times more productive. But when I was young I used scalable ve

Those problems are common with regular flu. I had lots of complications the last year with a common flu. My joints and some internal organs became inflamed because of the immune response and I could not move and was very painful. This year

"The virus is created in a lab" is not a conspiracy theory, it is just a plausible possibility that we should study. There is no "conspiracy" in the theory in fact. The most probable cause is an accident. Nobody is going

It is called "reality". Like cities have pollution problems because of thermal engines. Like airplanes or ships. We know we should fly on Pegasus feeding themselves on rainbows but that is not feasible on the short term. All human

I also do not use an alarm clock for waking up. My body is my alarm clock because of routine and discipline. If I need more sleep, I let my body sleeping more. Most of the time I don't need it. In fact I use an alarm clock for working

My advice is for you doing exercise first thing in the morning as a routine. It will give you energy(unlock your lymphatic system, improving your circulation, clean your waste) , activate your brain and body(generate activation hormones and

I love snipers too. I have some broad idea about a topic I am not experienced. I expose it and I have immediately 25 different objections. I examine the objections and there are 5 really good I had never thought about. That is amazing, the

I write down on paper how I feel, the work I do, exercise, food I take, everything. That means if one day I am not ok I can rewind and find the culprit very fast, like getting exhausted from doing too hard work the day before. In your case,

I probably had covid19 in February(in Asia), only in retrospect I could differentiate it from the flu. The main difference was it took the superior part of the throat instead of the inferior. Talking with doctors they tell me I had all the

The magic that was going to protect Europe from the virus was the same magic that protected Europe from SARS: The good weather. If you delay it enough, whatever virus affects North of Asia in Winter does not affect Europe in Winter but in S

Test are extremely important. Here in Spain, a PCR takes more or less 24h. With fast testing you can control a pandemic BEFORE it gets out of control, like South Koread did. You control every single passenger an the border, at airports, so

Exactly. The test worked very well in South Korea.

The Government of Spain talked with WHO representatives(world's health organization) the 2th of February. They(WHO) recommended them to buy covid fast tests. They did not. The Gov expected "one or two cases" so why the fuss?

India has lots of young people. Young people are not affected as badly as old people. Also India has no Winter, only Monsoons, wet and dry. It is warn and dry there now. It seems this virus propagates much better in cold weather.

No, no, no, the main factor that they do not speak about is testing, simple as that. If you do proper testing, like in South Korea, you detect everybody or almost everybody that has coronavirus, even when they don't have symptoms of th

I can tell you what happened in Spain. In Spain the Government did not take it seriously, it was a relaxed attitude. The person that was in charge of giving news , Mr Simon, said he expected two or three people getting infected in the futur

I used to agree with that sentiment. Then one day I saw a stock clearance offer and bought an Ipad because the price was so good it was a steal. Then another day I added three pdf books to ibooks so I could read it on vacations, then three

Steve Wozniak himself was cheating. Instead of using proper D/A converters that costed 100 times more, he made a hack. And the hack was good enough. It is one of the things in which academical training is perverse. It trains you to alw

Most children can be host without suffering it and transmit it to other people. For middle age people, if you are unlucky and get other virus at the same time(because you met with lots of people in a place), like the flu, it can be extremel
