    I think you should revisit perl. My first job writing perl was in 2005 or 2006, and it was not a good language for an eager idiot without guidance. After a couple years, I started …

    Even a subset of that would be amazing to me -- "removed all of the undefined behaviors, added 128 bit signed and unsigned integers, features for explicit cache management (!!!), a…

    Right now, we have a consumer, provider model of the internet. The internet in the 90s was very different, and looked much more peer-to-peer. The higher level sharing and storage t…

    I guess looking at movies and books, I could see where you'd get this idea, but it really isn't accurate. There are different types of feeling good, and the purely chemical good is…
