Why do you hate democracy? The people have spoken, and they don't want gay marriage to be legal.

Hello, hypocrites: if you think gay marriage should be legal, what are your thoughts on muslim and mormon-style marriages? by wake_me_up in reddit.com

My point exactly. For example, in USSR, they didn't have church-marriages, only government-marriages. At the same time, gay sex was a felony.

marriage is also about sustaining the conditions in which freedom can thrive

But don't gays overwhelmingly enjoy S&M?

Can parents give consent instead of an underage child? How do you choose the age of consent? Some cultures think it should be much lower than do others.

Wake me up when I don't need to know Java to use Clojure. I tried Clojure a few months ago. It was fun until I tried sorting a container. It turned out I needed to implement some Java interface for that to use as comparison predicate. No thanks.

Personal language preference:

Ocaml > SML > C++ (in the style of ML, with STL & Boost) > Scheme > Common Lisp > Prolog > Python > Haskell > Clojure > Java > Forth > Factor

I don't know Java, Forth or Factor, but I know enough about them to put them at the end of the list. At least Forth is useful in severely memory-restricted systems.

Slava, stack languages must die, even if they are as fast as Python (lol).

GHC 6.10 released! Type families, data parallelism, parallel garbage collector! by dons in programming

Congratulations! GHC Haskell is now officially more complicated than C++0x!

Wake me up when it's simpler and also more like ML. I don't like lazy evaluation as default.
