    Leftists (and rightists) need to stop being scared of the freaking world. And that includes internal politics. Stop scare-mongering everything if some park ranger in Idaho is furlo…

    I'll interject at this point for a bit of my philosophy on language adoption. There's something called time-to-market in the business world. D and Scala have seemed to have missed …

    I was curious what kind of hoops they had to go through to get the woman on stage. Obviously there was a concerted effort to get a woman on stage for a dog-n-pony show. Or maybe sh…

    Yeah, right. Just like the Soviet Union was the happiest country when their people sat in line for toilet paper. I'm sure Krugman would fit right in Venezuela.

    In your bubble, you believe all of those things are good things accepted by the HN hive mind. Hilarious.

    And in 2013 where do you banish to? All I see is swift execution by either the banishing fiefdom or probably swift execution by the resulting "accepting" fiefdom.

    Paul Krugman is a leftist operative - nothing more.

    Yeah, the PETA crowd argument, which gleans over the fact that the cow wouldn't exist to begin with if not for those evil farmers and human carnivores. These anthropomorphic argume…

    I doubt Rich Hickey is interested in those few remaining CL stalwarts that won't come over because he doesn't open up the reader. It's just a non issue.
