Wasn't it how everything worked back in the early mainframes and timesharing days?

This is incorrect. The oligarchs took vk.com away from Pavel Durov (the founder of vk.com and later Telegram) by force with some help from FSB, then banished him from Russia. Both Pavel Durov and Telegram are now out of the reach of these o

Fusion propulsion would be very beneficial to any space operations beyond the Earth's orbit. I think NASA have a project investigating this technology.

Was it bad enough to abandon all investments made into its development and jump to the less successful competing platform instead of incrementally improving MeeGo/Maemo?

Nintendo and Sony are a tiny insignificant speck of the market compared to all the OpenGL ES compatible devices available. I guess every smartphone vendor not called Apple is ran by Khronos idealists. Besides, the latest Nintendo device off

I think you're underestimating the strength of the US government. A lot of things happened since the 18th century.

I thought "serious" meant at least one million error-corrected qubits or so, and it seems to me that we're at least two decades away from this. The article is talking about the 50 qubits milestone without proper error correct

I presume you are talking about ScriptX created by an Apple spin-off Kaleida Labs? I'm reading about it right now, and I don't see any specific features useful for language-oriented programming, not even Lisp-like macros. From wha

"Discussions about race/gender" is also political discussion, it's very strange that the author doesn't understand this unless he has some implicit intentions here and separates these topics on purpose.

Their demands should be fulfilled by vocational schools, not universities.

This shift of focus from fundamental computer science to "real-world software development" training seems to be short-sighted and more appropriate for a vocational school or a coder bootcamp rather than a place like MIT.

I'd rather use the whole thing rather than scattered bits here and there.

Yeah, Lisp actually used to benefit from network effects between the 60s and the 80s, before the AI winter struck and Lisp was sacrificed as a scapegoat by the industry (MCC and NASA JPL are probably the most well-publicized cases).

I think some charts would communicate the point better than pure text in this case.

Please do not conflate MacLisp and Emacs Lisp, they are different languages. GNU Emacs is not directly derived from Multics Emacs, it's one of the many reimplementations of the original Emacs. The closest thing to MacLisp today is actu

The complexity of the web platform is at least party to blame for this. The specifications for HTTP, HTML, DOM, CSS, JavaScript together are gargantuan and growing even further every year. This makes the development of Chrome's new com

I'm disappointed that "programming for Vaunt will involve JavaScript". We're stuck with this horribly designed language on the web because browsers don't run anything else (natively), and there is a strong trend in
