Actually, googling "三宅一生ソニー" returns a Sony time capsule: ソニーのユニフォームは何回かデザイン変わってますけど、1981年に採用が決まった最後のユニフォームはなんと三宅一生氏のデザインですよ。 Translation: The design for the Sony uniform has changed several times, but the last uniform for the hiring of 19

I don't think encouraging activity is necessarily good. A lot of comments do not really contribute something useful to the discussion. I'd rather people just posted when they have something really useful or insightful to say. Less comments

I don't understand your comment. Take a simple definition of the factorial: http://codepad.org/GTBdCKin The space usage for this function is obviously constant, and the number of multiplications will be linearly dependent on the number. I

Wow - the main site has to be one of the most Opera-hostile pages I've ever seen. Everything flickers as I move the mouse over the text, and the login pops in and out for no apparent reason... As long as the mouse stays out of the page it d

I think he may mean searching by type, not searching for the type of something. Hoogle does this for Haskell and it's a fantastic tool. Let's say I want to find if an element is in a list but I don't know the name of the function to do that
