Several algorithms and techniques and operating system(s?).

"Having free time was great, but in my contract was specified that everything I worked on in my free time belonged to the company." Wow that is sick.

Fair enough, I stand corrected, I commented as I did because I interpreted it as a typical "science can't explain everything therefore it is useless" or "your theory isn't perfect …

I think we should close all hospitals. Those stupid doctors can't cure all diseases therefore medicine is complete useless.

Just because you don't need to write your own sorting algorithms don't mean you don't have to know how to write one. First of all it is a good introduction to algorithms, analysis …

? chater 5 to 7 seem to cover that pretty well. Part V Uncertain Knowledge and Reasoning 13 Uncertainty 14 Probabilistic Reasoning 15 Probabilistic Reasoning Over Time 16 Making Si…

If these guys aren't making money, how do they support themselves?

Google adding support for Microsoft tools?

Defense. It is so obvious how some people make fun of it because they are unable themselves.

How can people call themselves programmers and don't know more recursion thatn this guy. It is not recursion that is slow, it is your algorithm...

so can it run a repl?

Aren't you people generalizing a little too much, obv there are loads of people working on big, important problems like energy, medicine etc. While many people use Facebook I don't…

To find replacers you mean? I certainly don't think the code itself is harder to maintain or change, quite the contrary, good functional code is more modular than object-oriented.

Such a bad article. Some programming tasks are boring, yes(no shit...). All? No. Programming can be very challenging, obviously it depends on the task. If you want a challenge I su…

awesome. can I use F# too?

I always thought that OO encourages not rigorous abstract thinking but fuzzy everyday thinking with arbitrary definitions.

how is Lisp/Scheme weakly typed? It is dynamically typed and strongly too(even though the strong/weak typing definition isn't exactly clear).

Featured at github: "ioke is a new JVM-based language that allows the programmer to simplify code until it’s expressive and terse enough by folding layers of abstraction. Drawing o…

In Sweden I know Chalmers teaches funcional programming as an obligatory first year course and functional programming is traditionally strong there. In Lund it is taught as an adva…

Monte Carlo methods is a family of algorithms no? I still haven't groked exactly what is so special about them. Incredibly useful, sure, but aren't they just simulations? Ie, isn't…

I use IRC quite a lot to quickly find the solution for small problems that Google doesn't solve. However all channels are fairly specialized and I sometimes feel the need to discus…

webpy because it is minimalistic and very clean and easy to use. I have aslo played around a little b it with compojure+clojure.

I had no problem getting Clojure running on Eclipse. I much prefer emacs though.

I do that all the time. I like the Dijkstra quote: "Elegance is not a dispensable luxury but a factor that decides between success and failure. " I also think it is a great way to …
