    No. No they shouldn't. This isn't C and a programmer that doesn't use a computer to keep track of his parentheses isn't much of a programmer.

    Dude, just because you don't know how to write good lisp doesn't mean others can't. Nor do you seem to understand how to write a decent dsl in lisp or that you can make the syntax anything that you want including the mess you wrote at the end. I feel like gouging my eyes out looking at what you wrote. It's the lisp strawman again.

    For the racists who can't understand what a troll modifier is. I'm basically saying I'm not a USian. I am a north american though, who is slightly ashamed at how my countries have let themselves be raped by the USA.

  21. Yes. Two part answer. on Ask Slashdot: Permanent Preservation of Human Knowledge? · · Score: 1
    First. Store knowledge in humans. The amount of 'knowledge' in the world today is staggering. However, the amount of knowledge required to live a healthy, fulfilled life is easily contained by a human brain. Why store the knowledge of how to deal with 'modern' diseases when you can just not recreate the stupidity that causes those diseases in the first place? Why store a whole bunch of 'knowledge' on modern agriculture practices and all the technical knowhow to develop the poisons that make it possible when a single human can understand permaculture? Why store modern construction 'knowledge' about all the machines and computers and artificial materials that make it possible to build structures barely rated for a century, when a single human can understand and construct by hand a rammed-earth structure which lasts for millenia?

    The goal should not be to store all the stupidity we've learned, but to store enough to ensure people have a healthy life and a stable societal structure which would make knowledge acquisition and discovery trivial.

    Second. Crystal discs engraved with information that can be projected onto a surface just by light shining through it. Basic information on how to recreate a magnifier to read the more densely engraved discs. Leave caches of these discs all over the world. Perhaps marked by descriptive menhirs, that would, you know, point out the location of the cache on astrologically significant days like the solstices.
