The fact that anyone at any point can monkey patch any built-in is a potential liability for large teams, with average programmers. It must be addressed by culture and code review that you may or may not have. Still worth it though :)

Clojure is very interesting to me as a way to build and deploy services backed by machine learning. Interesting enough to make me learn LISP :) In particular, two libraries are enormously useful: http://github.com/bradford/infer http://

Meditation is for the mind what physical exercise is for the body. That is why people do it, because it pays off in enhanced performance and mood. It is as difficult and painful to sit in intense focus for hours at a time as it is to exer

That is the case, and that is the point. It is very hard, in fact impossible to do for more than a few seconds without practice. Which is the problem you are solving by practicing. If you can make yourself just sit there, not scolding yo

Any bodybuilder will tell you that more than 10-12 reps is useless. A few will lift heavier weights, then fall back to lighter weights and extends repetitions out past that, but it is not as common. There has been an ongoing dispute abou

Oracle CEO Larry Ellison are good friends, best man at your wedding kind of friends. Ellison was once on Apple's board of directors after Jobs returned to Apple. Oracle suing Google over Java patent infringements in Android sure plays well

Thats sort of the idea we were going for by explaining the background - that there is a reason the bay area is filled with a million product obsessed early adopters. It is cultural. It has deep roots. It cannot be easily reproduced, so y

Pagerank is a like a markov chain - you iterate the same dataset over and over until you're happy with the result. If 20 is good enough, its good enough. Good explanation here: http://www.iterativemapreduce.org/samples.html#Pagerank Whe

Two guys work on PYMK, but the entire SNA team is much bigger. It is amazing what those two guys get done, though. They sit by the window and grin all day, so much ass are they kicking.

Comments like this seem to miss the point: use strict; use warnings; is not required. Moose is not the default object system. You can't say, "Oh, this library has that feature!" Thats not good enough. It has to be built-in, not optional, c
