   I think it was more along the lines that Lucas didn't/doesn't understand the eastern philosophies he was trying to emulate, only copying the trappings (wearing robes, taking on apprentices, practicing asceticism). I think he needed a white

   Nicely done! One of the things I've seen happen to a lot of technically-oriented podcasts is they become irregular and then eventually disappear. I think with a topic like Clojure you have a lot to discuss, since it's rapidly evolving. If

   It's finally come full circle I guess: WinAmp's UI(1) was copied by SoundJam MP for the Mac(2) circa 1999. Apple bought SoundJam and turned it into iTunes after overhauling the UI(3) leading to what we have today(4), only to be copied by W

   I think part of it is that you have a higher reimplementation rate for your code in languages like Clojure. If something takes you 3 hours in Java and you find its a crap design, you might take 15-30 minutes to figure that out in Clojure.

   Wow this was incredibly stupid, and link bait, and I feel dumb for clicking the link at all. Flagged.

    I think there is a point of diminishing returns when you are sacrificing simplicity and straight-forwardness for mouse clicks.

    The comma in its typical uses in variable assignment is pretty useless IMO. var x = 1, y = 2; Destructuring lists would be a much more useful application var x, y = [1, 2]; or var tmp = [1, 2] ... var

    Now, would the old candidate be pushed down the stack, or would there be some TCO (tailing candidate optimization) going on where only the most recent one exists?

    This sounds terribly cool and bleeding edge. I never knew about cljs-watch which would make someone like me, coming from heavy a python background (and used to auto compilation) comfortable.

    Are you sure you're not thinking of Apple's Knowledge Navigator concept? http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9bjve67p33E This video is allegedly from 1987. Edit: I changed the link to an expanded video from the early 90s(?) which contains the

    I hate to be that guy but "Comic Sans MS"? Comic Sans is often ridiculed for being "kiddy" and doesn't go well when trying to convey "professional web design". At the very least, it seems out of place with the cityscape theme you have g

    Is it that they don't care, or that they don't even know to do it at all? It seems to me that having an iPhone popup occur occasionally when an OS update is ready with [Remind later] [Dismiss] buttons would be a good way to get mo

    Armin Shimerman coauthored a really good DS9 book, The 34th Rule, worth reading when you get a chance.

    You can boil it down to religious extremism: Puritans (the New World's original religious extremists) propagated their values well. Puritan values (which are ultimately Judeo-Christian) stuck longer in North America. The Judeo-Christian tra

    Babylon 5 disappeared, which pissed me off (glad I've seen it when it came out, but still). Nice to watch so much Trek when I want though!

    I noticed I started treating circles like iTunes playlists - I have a master "All Friends" (akin to my Music Library) circle, which is a dump for everyone who are friends (not family), then "RL Friends" and "Internet Friends". Thinking abou
