Lisp - Lots of Insane Stupid Parentheses

Wow, I feel so old. Never heard of any of these bands/people, don’t even know what funk is. Will be checking them all out. Thanks for the recommendations!

1. There are many courses that are free – the only payment is at the end if you want a certificate.
2. Lua is as good as any other language to start with. Python, Ruby are also popular starting languages. If you’re going to continue to program, then you’ll probably change languages several times in your career. What’s important is to learn the generic concepts of programming, such as input/output, looping, functions; once you are familiar with concepts, changing languages isn’t a big deal. Start anywhere and build from there.

Apple, Google, Facebook, Microsoft, they’re all as bad as each other in various ways. I think it’s disingenuous just to point the finger at one.

Would love to see Symbian come back. S30+/Mocor really is garbage; KaiOS has a very small but loyal following; but Symbian would make all these reboots of classic feature phones wonderful. I wonder if open source Symbian could be hacked into modern screen phones as an alternative for LineageOS, et al?

1. Blame Biden
2. Create or increase tariffs on imported food

There, problem solved.

150+ years ago is a good time. Now is the second best time.

The wealth, stability, and growth of the US was built first on slavery and then on desperate people willing to work undesirable jobs for less than minimum wage in unpleasant or even hazardous conditions. When those desperate people are rounded up and deported, maybe it’s time to rethink the basis on which this society depends.

That’s so cool! Now tell us about this crime-fighting train.

Oh, is Wayland working now?

I suspect that will work as well as outsourcing to India did; in two years they’ll be hiring everyone back again.

I’ll hire devs who can solve problems, no matter the stack

Should have been doing that already. A decent programmer can pick up a new language in six months; it’s the ability to follow logic and solve problems that’s important, not the language they use. (Unless you’re switching to a completely different paradigm: Haskell to Python, for example).

“Crikey that is a big one!”

That’s what she said

“Is that a pickup next to that?”

No it’s a ute

I thought that was just me, I had no idea it was common.

“world-first” !?
