Depending on when this happened, keep in mind that Apple often delays receipt emails for up to a day (in my experience) and bundles the purchases of that day into one receipt. So again, depending on when it happened, you may simply not have

No, but it's more trouble to parse. More importantly, I think it's fair to ask that people learn basic grammar, and if we don't take it upon ourselves to insist on seeing correct grammar, then that will never happen. That's why I think bein

maven is the main package-distribution mechanism in use in the Java world, and it is what is used in the Scala world, as well. The specific tool used varies (sometimes maven, sometimes simple-build-tool, sometimes buildr), but the de facto

Ah, ok. Interesting. Yeah, I'm hitting it up on Safari 5, and zooming worked fine (I just used the browser zoom, though now I checked the Scribd zoom and things are working too). And the scrolling works fine... All in all, strange, given th

Depends on your definition of pain. I've found the full stack of Lift features quite accessible, if at times somewhat poorly documented (but the group is quite excellent for these situations), from the basics to situations where I needed to

It's possible to do, but by default Lift's form element bindings are done in a stateful way, and your session's lifetime is determined by an occasional AJAX heartbeat request. In short, while you can write applications that should work wi

Re: 5., the Scala syntax isn't awkward to work with at all. In fact, it's based on CSS. For example: <ul class="l:Users.userList"> <li class="user"> <span class="username">shadowfiend</span> <di

By the way, I don't know if anyone mentioned this, but there is now a study group on OpenStudy for SICP at http://openstudy.com/channels/MIT+6.001+Structure+and+Interp... . Moreover, joining OpenStudy no longer requires an invite (it used
