Re:Topics in Tcl Programming on Saturday February 28, 2015 @11:31AM (#9124116)
There's really not a thing I can't do in TcL. I move back and forth from Python and TcL all of the time. I had Tcl before I had Python and it's quite mature which makes sense considering how long it's been around.

This is no hobby level system. I've done side-by-side comparisons and they've got something else going on here that beats other systems hands down. You've also seemed to miss the fact that these guys are enabling the context to be controlled using any word.

[–]moridin007 1 point 1 day ago comparing this algorithm with the one i wrote for wingztv.com (shameless plug) i am really shocked by how much better these guys algo is. although mine was just kinda was hacked up. it just sees sentences with more words in common and ranks then by it, and then i just grab the top 5. this algo looks a lot more fancy O.o probably why it's a lot better lol. http://www.reddit.com/r/InternetIsBeautiful/comments/2wqq5t/...

I was just thinking of going full code-hipster and learning Tcl!

Thanks. I was wondering about the Tk implantation in terms of plotting and charts.

We all know LinkedIn is a 'match.com' or 'tinder' or 'okcupid' for the majority of folks. "We only hire hot chicks..." a quote from the article, is very truth telling. Lets be honest folks.

Until we are honest with ourselves about the sexual dynamics (including what our wives or SO's think) that exist, we will go no where on this issue.
