Thread: Open source... I'm not convinced
Post: RE: Open source... I'm not convinced
Just curious on this one, but why don't you like Linux? I'm new to it myself, so I haven't really decided whether I like it or not. I used to love windows, but I haven't liked it much since Windows 7,... |

Thread: What is Minsky talking about here?
Post: RE: What is Minsky talking about here?
Yeah he was referring to a different language, and saying that C was "terrible" because it wouldn't sort of adapt and write its own code. At least that's what it sounds like to me. But then none of th... |

Thread: What is Minsky talking about here?
Post: What is Minsky talking about here?
In the video I link below, Marvin Minsky talks about programs that could write some of their own code. The part I'm referring to starts at 23:53 in the video. For some reason I've always found that id... |

Thread: Newb question about %02d %04d
Post: RE: Newb question about %02d %04d
