Fascinating on process, about stopping in the middle of chapters and using editing of the previous days work to get going. I'll try that with coding; not forcing myself to finish something before stopping, and using refactoring to get going the next day...

He was a great humanitarian and an incredible man. He's definitely one of my role models.

“I'm a supporter of gay rights. And not a closet supporter either. From the time I was a kid, I have never been able to understand attacks upon the gay community. There are so many qualities that make up a human being... by the time I get through with all the things that I really admire about people, what they do with their private parts is probably so low on the list that it is irrelevant.”

Sad news. Have to watch The Verdict this weekend. One of my favorite movies of his.

Scala has Erlang inspired Actors if you want to stay on the jvm. Wonder if that is enough to realize the potential of future multi-core architectures... I'm currently working with both :)
- Vidar Larsen
Vidar: may I ask what you are using it for? :)
- Amund Tveit
@Amund: Sure :) Currently I'm using Erlang in a distributed, robust state aggregation framework; not yet production ready.
- Vidar Larsen
@Amund(2), and Scala I'm using as a more convenient implementation language for a RESTful servlet API based on Jersey/JSR311. The syntax is much terser than java for bean-like structures, and the built-in xml syntax eliminates the need for a templating layer.

She probably signed up just to check out FF To Go. All mums like to know what their sons are up to you know... no matter how old they get! ;-)
- Tony Ruscoe
Wow, that's wild! Glad my mom's never heard of FF and thinks FB is kids' play.
- Susan Beebe
Cool! I've got a lot of 50-75 yr old friends on Facebook.

Benjamin, if your mom has a smart phone and wants to keep up with FriendFeed, I have an excellent recommendation for her. (And no, it's not MojiPage.)
- Ontario Emperor
Wow your Mom rocks. Mine can barely check her email. I can't imagine what FriendFeed would do to her.
- Carla Thompson
My mom's on FriendFeed as well. Who can find her account?

My mom barely, just barely uses e-mail, but she enjoys watching Taiwanese TV over the internet. It's amazing traveling the world in hostels, watching people IM their moms over the free internet connections. In 1984, going to Europe was a real distancing thing with very expensive phone calls home. Now free Skype at some hostels. Grandma turned 102 this year.

Wondering what my mother would think of FriendFeed.. :D
