As chuck McM said, start looking for a problem, rather than an idea but i would like to add this caveat: 1) Look at the background of you 3 guys, and list out problems which were being worked around in the areas of your…
Read wodehouse and watched Yes Minister and Yes Prime Minister to learn english in the 80's
Age. Grow old.
Assembly was always an option, though a painful one.
I Second that. A Fantastic book which inspired me to go into science.
No Asimov, the greatest writer of books on General Science for the public?
Damn. It's always nice to see things i was working towards 15 years ago, now coming into fruition.
A package manager is generally not part of the language per se and should not be part of the language, but rather be part of the tooling ecosystem around it. Don't get me wrong. A de facto package manager is extremely…
Great. I have been streem-ing for more than 15 years now. :-)
IronPython and IronRuby never really had corporate backing - and the few resources devoted to them had been moved away fairly quickly. Thus their fate today. The difference, this time, seems to be high-level policy and…

Passive aggressively imagining things and projecting it on others is going to get you nowhere. If you have something useful or even your own opinion to contribute, do so. I see that you have nothing to contribute except…
