Listening to a lot of:

2562: http://www.boomkat.com/item.cfm?id=107955 Martyn: http://www.boomkat.com/item.cfm?id=144550 Burial: http://www.boomkat.com/item.cfm?id=56124 Distance: http://www.boomkat.com/item.cfm?id=64768 TRG: http://www.boomkat.com/item.cfm?id=140948

All of the above fall under the realm of Dubstep, although 2562 is very techno influenced.

Tycho is really good!
Except that in silverlight you can't use the whole of .net, just a subset.
I'm using it at work and absolutely hate it: if feels unfinished in almost every aspect. Try to use it yourself to do something nice and not simplicistic and you'll see it yourself.

Now it appears that only Microsoft's evangelist and members of the silverlight team are using it. All the blog postings/tutorials are posted by these people.

I feel that if a technology is naturally good you'll want to use it yourself, but this requires an army of payed bloggers to be pushed down the throats of developers.

Also, what problem is silverlight trying to solve? I feel it's trying to solve the i-dont-know-html problem in the end... well, i dont have it.

Re:What did you use to teach yourself Python? on Thursday November 27, 2008 @05:14AM (#378575)
Idiomatic Python: http://python.net/~goodger/projects/pycon/2007/idiomatic/han...

Probably the best complement to the aforementioned tutorials. Dive into Python is good but i hate the examples he makes.

Oh yeah, thought the same. Here's a piece of my DNA google! ;-)
