  1. Re:Forth, the RPN notational programming language on Comparing the Size, Speed, and Dependability of Programming Languages · · Score: 1

    I can't see getting back to it now, either; lets face it, a huge bonus for any programming language choice is its popularity, so that others will maintain your code, so that you can get help and code fragments with a quick google.

    You may want to check out Factor. Both the language and its libraries are actively being developed. It is concatenative like Forth, with a strong Lisp influence.

  2. Re:i was watching pbs a few nights ago on Empirical Study Shows DRM Encourages Infringement · · Score: 1

    i forget the guy's name, but he was a behavioral economist, and he was attempting to explain the recent economic meltdown in the terms of his profession, and why the whole notion of rational actors in a rational marketplace is a crock

    Pretty sure you're talking about Dan Ariely's book Predictably Irrational. It's an educational read -- I highly recommend it.
