Thanks you guys, i feel like you are the guys invented democracy to save us from SO tyranny.

Small Suggestion: All caps in Title makes the title very harder to read. so instead of WHAT IS BEST EDITOR can you change like What is Best Editor.

Better Audio Support in Linux So that i can watch movies and listen to songs.
So that mckinsey can Steal more money by sending those BigData Expert MBAs.
Its simple Logic,

Programmers Those who use C = C Programmers. Scheme = Scheme Programmers. Common Lisp = Common Lisp Programmers. Clojure = Clojure Programmers.

Programmers Who use Clojure != Common Lisp Programmers.

So Please, please stop posting about Clojure in Common Lisp Posts.

I don't want Clojure solution for Common Lisp problem.

if I want to eat steak, i'd search about steak, why the hell i need to check about broccoli. Same thing if i want to learn Common Lisp, i need more info about Common Lisp, Why the hell i need info about Clojure.
I just observed , whenever there is a discussion about Common Lisp , some how somebody would inject something about Clojure. Did anybody noticed that ?
Re:Steve Yegge: Notes from the Mystery Machine Bus on Friday August 10, 2012 @06:58AM (#4365680)
Now i understood why i love Common Lisp and hate Clojure. It has nothing to do with Community or language. Its about Me. I'm a liberal. Knowing that i'm a liberal liberated me.
Re:Languages to master on Friday July 27, 2012 @02:37PM (#4302905)
In My opinion The 5 Languages would be

  1. Mind Bender (Common Lisp or Haskell)
  2. Social/Internet (Java Script) (Browser/Node.js)
  3. Numerical analysis (Mathematica or Matlab or R or Excel)
  4. Inside the Engine (C/Linux)
  5. Money Machine (I want big salary) ( C++ )

Your Advise reminds me a Quote from the movie God Father Part-II. "Hyman Roth always makes money for his partners. One by one, our old friends are gone. Death, natural or not, prison, deported. Hyman Roth is the only one left, because he always made money for his partners. ". Anyway good Advice.

ok guys,, Let me print my wisdom, "Its not the programming language its You,its always you"
Re:Go is amazing, period. on Monday March 19, 2012 @10:26PM (#3727492)
you have nailed wisdom to these younger 16 years old crowd. But nowadays younger crowd needs fashion,pizzaz,Prestige etc. in my experience learning about Message Brokers is very important than learning new language.
Re:Go is amazing, period. on Monday March 19, 2012 @11:25AM (#3724318)
Is the Author is 13 years old. When did he really start programming.? just wondering After 16 years of programming experience still not able to decide which language is best. At last Settled for C and Common Lisp. But still have Doubts. As per Personal Experience Both Language is more than enough for me.

Re:Lisp Hackers: Zach Beane on Saturday March 10, 2012 @02:00PM (#3688403)
he is the guy who changed common lisp eco system. After quicklisp nobody ever gonna write abandonware. Thanks Mr. Beane.
For analogy there are few original liquor (vodka,rum,Whiskey,Brandy,Wine etc..) but god damn so many cocktails, so many cocktails.

Same in Programming Language design. Few original concepts, Lisp,C,Smalltalk, but so many cocktails even my grandma is creating one. All we want is more libraries.

Re:Why I Still Use Emacs on Tuesday February 21, 2012 @12:48AM (#3615365)
For common lisp development emacs SLIME is the Best for foreseeable future.

For C++ i would use QT Creator. For scripts such as shell , Python VIM is great.

Re:Splash screens == sloth on Tuesday February 21, 2012 @12:41AM (#3615356)
For One time if you see splash screen its not a problem. But for example if visual studio crashes so often and it makes you see to splash so often then as author mentioned i would feel like i would commit seppuku. They should try caching or something .
