Because CEO is company's main representative and being charismatic/attractive certainly wouldn't hurt company's image. This applies to both male and female CEOs. And since when calling a person pretty qualifies as sexism? Or is it the lack

Lein-droid author here. A few commenters asked about the performance and maturity of Clojure for Android, so I decided to answer in the top level. The main problem of Clojure for Android right now is the large size of Clojure runtime. This

You are right that The Joy of Clojure is for developers with some prior experience in Clojure and it explains the "why" of the language even further.

I don't have the "Feynman Lectures on Physics" where the driver and police officer situation originally took place. The book "What Do You Care What Other People Think" I own (audio version, read from 1989 edition) contains the story "Feynma

I'm sorry to provide Feynman's story in this kind of wrapper. I've just read this in Feynman's book and this link was the first in Google where I found it. Please consider the identity of the blog author irrelevant to the story.

Well, the link to the shootout statistics is probably not the best demonstration for Lisp speed/memory consumption/SLOC count relation. If you look into the Lisp sources there you will see that there are lot of things precompiled for the sa

I am absolutely sure you can write Tetris in 100 lines of C. Would you be able to maintain it in half a year? Would anyone except you at the moment of writing be able to understand it? I wrote this implementation in January, found it and un
