It's out being almost as successful as Perl6 and Python3 :-) e: Actually wasn't there a blog post posted to HN suggesting Perl skip to 7 too?

Haven't used it myself, but Nimrod comes to mind.

I saw it immediately but I can see how that can happen. On the web, an underline doesn't quite scream "input" as much as a white rectangle with a border does.

I would love it if instead of quitting my program with an error, it just went ahead and called the method it thinks I'm referring to. This would remove a lot of unneeded friction f…

Where's the Github repo?

I think you can switch panes with C-x C-o, same as the Emacs combo.

Not exactly but sort of. Think of the effect the caricatures have. Caricatures that are punching up (making fun of rich people, tech geeks, etc) affect people in a way different wa…

You're really comparing mocking one of the most privileged groups you could possibly mock... with blackface. Seriously? You are exactly the kind of person that motivated Mike Judge…

I find it hard to believe you've given your opinions on it much thought or research. Oscar Wilde nor any actual socialist advocates for crony capitalism/corporatism.

Is the last sentence referring to government regulation?

"We've seen that most of our users are connecting from American IP addresses... shit! Can we redo that?"

- The study of ethics is inherently valuable. Regardless of what other studies tell us about "what to do" or "how to do it", we must assign some value or priority to our actions. Y…

Sorry, never mind, he's perfectly right. Philosophy has been a waste of time since Socrates and it's provided nothing of value that you can't learn from functional programming and/…

Did you read what I'm criticizing? You mustn't have if you're saying I'm "unable to do it myself". How is this quote any more coherent or well-structured or less snarky than my com…

I would care if they were present. But I have no positive evidence that my computer is infected by any of that. I don't need to manually scan through C code to feel safe. Just like…

Oh my god are developers pompous. So, the problem with Hegel is that he didn't study LISP and startups enough to understand his own thought. If only he were alive to ask for Paul G…

Not that my own comment here is helping anything. I'm just weirded out by the fact that people aren't being critical of these empty echo-chamber posts that keep popping up. They ma…

This reads like an essay from a freshman poli-sci class. The only unique thing about this post is the lame humblebrag or whatever about the author playing videogames with Snowden. …

Actually I'm sure the NSA is perfectly A-OK with techies, rather than getting involved politically and using their knowledge to mobilize the non-tech-savvy, instead expending their…
