The point is they claim the use of any value recycling scheme applied to reference counting whether it's been invented yet or not. They also have patent 7,908,441 which AFAICT claims the use of value recycling in any lock-free algorithms. Claiming prior art is not the point, there's plenty of that. The patent offi...

No, I don't need it in this case, but I might want it for other things. I've heard Common Lisp compilers enjoy having lots of registers, but OTOH pointers are frequently used and 64-bit pointers do not speed things up. Maybe it is also relevant for other dynamic languages, JIT compilers and whatnot. (I.e. their machine...

Firefox has hardware accelerated canvas (if you are on Vista or 7), and I think Chrome too (doesn't it?).

There are some pitfalls as with any language, but in my experience, it is easy to write efficient code. If you come from a C++ background, the biggest pitfall is that arrays are stored in column-major order so you need to loop on the first index first, i.e. do j=1,n do i=1,n do_stuff(i,j) ...

That's how I program almost everything, except the variables are lexicals instead of globals, and if you need to modularize the code you just wrap everything in a function which stuffs the functions into an object and returns it. Voila! It's just basic OOP.

True, that's a disadvantage of GUIs. Today most of the GUIs I use are cross-platform, but there are some that aren't. Hopefully with the advent of cross-platform GUI toolkits such as wxWidgets and Qt, we'll get to see more cross-platform GUIs.

On the Speed part: - You forget aliases (git checkout is just `gc` on my machine; you can even have something like `gcm` - what's faster now?) - Similar to above, you forget shell scripts. How can I encapsulate three or four actions as a single one on your Git GUI? - "Ctrl-0" is less consistent and slower than tabbing
