Thanks.

I'm starting to learn python right this instant. I have the old Dive Into Python book, but I see there's another one for v3.
What am I going to learn that I'll have to unlearn later?
If you were to start learning Python today which version would you pick?
I was reading Joel On Software today and ran across this quote:
Without understanding functional
programming, you can't invent
MapReduce, the algorithm that makes
Google so massively scalable. The
terms Map and Reduce come from Lisp
and functional programming. MapReduce
is, in retrospect, obvious to anyone
who remembers from their
6.001-equivalent programming class that purely functional programs have
no side effects and are thus trivially
parallelizable.
What does he mean when he says functional programs have no side effects? And how does this make parallelizing trivial?
I just downloaded Firefox 3.6 today and I noticed in the list of new features they have an Orientation API that can detect the direction that your laptop/computer is tilted. This is clearly a hardware feature of some sort; So if you don't have the hardware to do so is there any way of simulating it so that you can test it out on your projects?
What are minimum requirements for a beginner to gain a java based development job as on date?What is the same in the case of a .NET framework based development job?
Which path would be a better option today?
Hello,
I come from PHP background and am used to doing var_dump, echo and print_r while doing some kind of debugging.
I have just started on jquery, today is my first day infact and am trying to see if there is a way to dump out value to firebug console.
Do we have similar function to var_dump or echo in jQuery or any other way to get values or debug statements displayed on the console ?
We have our mail setup with google apps. We want to be able to run some regular expressions on incoming mail and process this information.
Is this possible today with Google App Engine? Does google provide some kind of infrastructure that can do this?
I have a question about the pronunciation of the SQL word. In my native language (French) we used to say it like spell each letters.
I've been listening to the stackoverflow podcast today. And I noticed the usage of the word sequel to describe SQL.
My question is what is the common or correct pronunciation of SQL in english. Is it a matter of taste?
Hi everybody,
Does somebody know how ICU Charset Detector's data is built. And is it difficult to add additional languages?
For example, I saw in the bug tracker that a ticket for the detection of Thai is opened since 2007 but nothing new until today.
Thanks
I understand the basics of Rx. Where I'm struggling is how you would actually use this beyond academic examples? What are some common, simple real-world scenarios where Rx is a much better solution than what we have today in .NET?
Today we had a discussion at the office about UI elements in the required document.
the question is of a UI requirement is functional of non-functional.
"the background must be blue"
is this a functional or non-functional requirement?
I logged into my MSDN subscription (Premium) today to download the new expression studio, and I noticed that unlike Expression 3, it requires you to enter a key, and they only provide 1.
Previously I installed Expression 3 on 2 computer, my home and my work computer. So my question is, is this no longer allowed? or is it a key that can be used multiple times?
This question came up today and I couldn't find any historical answer as to why a database is always represented as a cylinder. I am hoping someone in the stack world would know why and have a link or something backing it up.
Hello,
i develop since many years in SQL (many different sql servers like Oracle, MSSql, Mysql) and i always been happy in doing that. I've recently seen a lot of stuff around ORMs and i'm asking why should i move toward this world.
Can you give me some good points for spending time in learning a different way to do what i already do today?
Thanks in advance

Hey,
For some time i see that employers demand from programmers knowing Sharepoint, but I have problem with understand what it is :/
But today I was at IT training, and main guy told something like that:" Sharepoint is platform for commit code for programmer, control of version etc..."
It is true? It looks like SVN tool... Can someone explain me what advantages it have for c# programmer?
Thanks ;)
Is there a way to estimate the offset from GMT (or time zone) from a latitude/longitude? I've seen geonames, but this would need to work long term and we don't really want to rely on a web service. It'd just be used for determining whether to display "today" or "tonight" when giving information to various users so it wouldn't need to be too accurate (an hour or two off wouldn't be bad).
I want to access web service in Python or/and Perl scripts. What are the most popular and reliable libraries today?
I read this question, and I know about SOAPpy and ZSI. Can anybody say something about this libraries? Are they reliable enough for use in production?
If so, how do you (if you guys are around) handle the issue? I just heard a story today about a Japanese smoke alarm for deaf people that uses the smell of wasabe to wake them, so I got curious.
Sorry, dumb question number 2 today. Is it possible to determine if a file is contained within the App Bundle? I can access files no problem, i.e.,
NSString *pathAndFileName = [[NSBundle mainBundle] pathForResource:fileName ofType:@"plist"];
But can't figure out how to check if the file exists there in the first place.
Regards
Dave
I got this error today when trying to open a Visual Studio 2008 project in Visual Studio 2005:
The imported project "C:\Microsoft.CSharp.targets" was not found
So I thought I'd post it here in case anyone else is interested
Consider I have an enum, which I have coded today. What are the possible ways to extend its functionality, or perhaps add more variables to it, on a later date?
Will partial enums do the trick?
I was messing with my Objective-C++ namespace today.
I found that Handle, Size and Duration are already defined in ObjC++. What are they defined to be and where are they defined?
I have only #imported Foundation/Foundation.h
