Ruby is about to die permanently. A language that copied emacs-lisp but with syntax? Lol that gives it features to impress the ignoramus majority but real Haskell or Lisp programmers know better.

I am outraged by your post. Look at start ups as a whole and it is full of white people. By using the "small company" excuse you are allowing an entire segment of the economy to bypass diversity! Start ups are in desperate need of

Ethics prevent a real study where you lock the fatties in a cage and accurately measure the calories eaten. Fatties lie like a pro when it comes to dieting.

Seems he already knows the solution. Go native with c/c++. Re-write the front end per platform.

Even the <foreign country> resumes with false ages put down 27-30. Any ageism against 25 will be of the too-young variety.

Shame you are being down voted after the prism program has been made public. This is not as unlikely as it may sound.

I don't think the arguments from either side are too simple. People who recieve free college are in favor. People who must pay the bill are not in favor.

Pro tip. Install emacs. Install sicp from melpa. Profit.

You can use emacs + ommisharp. Tooling is surprisingly awesome.

.net developer by day. Don't have the time to hack after work. Girlfriend and family time. When I'm able I tinker with emacs, js2-mode, and skewer. It's fun to hack JavaScript in emacs.

Tech is brimming with diversity so he can't make a good statistical argument without lumping whites and Asians together as one race. His goal isn't racial diversity, it is the advancement of his race only. Even at the expense of o

Are tech companies turning people away due to their race? Or are there simply not enough black programmers? If the latter, then diversity for the sake of it is going to be... strange.

Similar to why we don't move people with the teleporter in star trek. It kills you ripping apart the atoms in your body then reassembles your now dead body at the destination.

I vote for learning lisp first. Lisp is nice in that it is not married to a paradigm. Sometimes a stateful solution is the ideal. Although not part of the language, the interactive environment (slime) coupled with manipulation tools (paredi

Thousands of Americans are debt slaves for the rest of their life because they followed the consensus of "good" advice. The comp sci field may be the exception but you still have to be careful taking advice from people who purchas

Ancedote: A college grad made more money with his guitar playing in bars than with his english degree. If you are generating good income with your skills then you have already achieved the goal.

5% not much if the developer is the creator and part owner of the product. The product could flop and he makes 0. Spending his time at McDonalds may be more profitable.

Learn c and/or c++ deeply. You can target apple with these yet still have freedom from apple. As well as some tricks that can't be done in the garbage collected world. Cross platform native apps to boot.

Java bungled generics. Go forgot generics. And closure suffers from jvm's lack of TCO. I'm sure c# has issues but please these languages are much worse.
