Also, as you get older, the health value of sitting on your ass an additional 6 hours while eating what is arguably the worst food for you (next to ice cream) suggests that you will die of a massive coronary at your desk at 50.

This, to me, is like the argument for Linux. To install the right version of java: google it. To install a specific program through wine: google it.

I've switched to git from bzr, but, if it were not for the speed, I'd switch back in an instant. As far as I can tell, after using hg for a while, git's primary (only?) benefit is its amazing speed, but I do think that bzr is a bit better than hg overall (some things made more sense for me there, but I might be biased)...

I'm fairly positive that federal minimum wage is higher than $900/mo for a fulltime employed person, so he is either part time, or not in the country. Either way, anyone willing to work for minimum wage to do a skilled job is hurting the industry.

Why would you want to have nil in there? Obviously that is a type error and my code does the right thing by signaling a type error. In any case, if you really want that you use `blank?`. Or do `strs.compact.reject(&:empty?).join(sep)` or `strs.reject{|s| s.nil? or s.empty?}.join(sep)`.

In what way is JSON Schema XML-inspired? Seriously, we use JSON Schema for my company's product, and it really has nothing to do with XML Schema.

It's not about wanting to have a nil in there, it's about what happens when you work with data. Maybe you got a null input from the user, or a bad value from the database. This is a common source of errors in a lot of real world code. It tells you that you've got a type error, but that's most certainly not the **desira...

Manually editing text files to specify how to map paths in the repo on to paths in your client on your local disk? Actually, you're right, that's a client-side interface issue, the data model is really dead simple. I still don't like it.

Not necessarily: if you know the structure of your output beforehand, this solution makes perfect sense. On input, you usually have to be more fault-tolerant **and** make clear what you will accept and what not.

Finding the return types of a function is even more hellish when a language has implicit returns (e.g: Ruby), so now you have a function that could return anywhere in the body of that function AS WELL AS return multiple types.

I didn't claim it was better, it's just that Clojure is not special in this regard. All modern languages that meet a very low baseline can solve this problem concisely.

Yeah, I don't know what to do about that. I'm coming at this from the standpoint of a JVM-based language guy, and the difference between these types of numbers is, for better or worse, important.

A centralized server with SVN is a technical limitation, with DVCS like git it is just a convention. In contrast to SVN, handling different branches with multiple merges doesn't suck, though.
