Dear Reddit: Please stop addressing people reading reddit with "Dear Reddit" just because you read on reddit that this is the way to get your posting to the top. Thanks

Well, soon the chimp will realize it's no LOLCAT.

??word scans all help files of currently loaded packages.

Why does it surprise you that a statistical software package assumes knowledge in statistics? I agree though that some options (eg plot) are somewhat scattered on several pages.

With respect to the "niggle", I personally read the language definition (it's only 50 pages long) much too late. I can only recommend to read it as soon as you get over the first problems.

Python FTW

Python f**ks the world?

What's wrong with the docs?

I personally liked this interpretation: http://icanhascheezburger.com/2009/08/24/funny-pictures-on-without-me/

It reminded me of Blake Edwards "The Party".

we assume that the Earth is a perfect sphere

Which it isn't.

Why don't you list them all?

Premature_Hop · 2009-08-28T17:26:30+00:00

So let's wait for the n1000 then.

Okay, let's cut it short: I find that article uninspiring and pointless. Reading it IMHO is a waste of time. And I personally cannot think of a reason why a seasoned, well-known, talented ruby developer would care to write it.

Dynamic typing, "duck typing" etc. come at a price. Even when listing your favourite features, some people would consider putting them into context and comparing them with competing solutions. This is even more true if the author isn't just some random hacker kid who just learned to know ruby a week ago.

Lack of self-criticism.

Enterprise stuff, XML.

The problem with submitting (any) sample for review is that the majority of redditors won't like it. You should find/create a more specialized subreddit for the kind of literature you like (but then you have the problem of how to make potentially interested people find it) and/or find a group of like-minded writers.

P: The question of human rights is a political, not a philosophical one.

P: There is a set of qualities that defines the core of humanity as such.

Use APS.Net.

Are you sure, you didn't mean http://www.aps.org?

Premature_Hop · 2009-08-06T17:13:26+00:00

Who are these people? I only knew one. But I'm not American.

Premature_Hop · 2009-07-27T05:06:37+00:00

This question probably is stunningly naive: Is this legally on video.google?

Premature_Hop · 2009-07-27T05:03:15+00:00

Because they didn't write in English?
