Evan Prodromou (evan)'s status on Monday, 12-Nov-2012 10:15:35 EST Evan Prodromou Agreed, new languages may make existing programmers make more software. Caveat: I think that's the exception, not the rule. -
Evan Prodromou (evan)'s status on Monday, 12-Nov-2012 09:50:37 EST Evan Prodromou I see exceptions; when a new language is created, we have to create a whole new set of DB libraries, network protocol libraries, etc. -
Evan Prodromou (evan)'s status on Monday, 12-Nov-2012 09:49:49 EST Evan Prodromou So, net more software. But net value to the world is null or maybe negative; lots of immature DB drivers worse than a few mature ones. -
Evan Prodromou (evan)'s status on Monday, 12-Nov-2012 09:49:46 EST Evan Prodromou Hypothesis: programming language competition is a zero-sum game. New languages don't create new programmers. -

Evan Prodromou (evan)'s status on Friday, 09-Nov-2012 21:10:48 EST Evan Prodromou Cultivating these kinds of periods where you're open to intuition seems like a good thing to do. Maybe that's all that meditation is. -
Evan Prodromou (evan)'s status on Friday, 09-Nov-2012 21:10:35 EST Evan Prodromou @x11r5 I often think of you as I listen to Sparks Nevada, Marshall on Mars. http://www.ur1.ca/avaes -
Evan Prodromou (evan)'s status on Friday, 09-Nov-2012 21:10:17 EST Evan Prodromou On a more serious note, most of the ways I solve problems come from intuitive flashes in the shower, while running, or something else. -
Evan Prodromou (evan)'s status on Friday, 09-Nov-2012 21:07:21 EST Evan Prodromou Yeah! -
Evan Prodromou (evan)'s status on Friday, 09-Nov-2012 16:55:17 EST Evan Prodromou This is what I get for having servers on 4 different cloud platforms. -
Evan Prodromou (evan)'s status on Friday, 09-Nov-2012 16:53:00 EST Evan Prodromou Gar! Just turned off a bunch of idle cloud servers that were doing nothing and sucking up $$$. Stupid cloud! -
