Hey Chris,

Great to know Rand is hiring engineers!

I have worked with consulting engineers from Labor and Population department at RAND, and have visited HQ a few years ago. It is a great place to work!

I have a few questions about the position, could I send you email for inquiry? Thanks!

There are (currently) three host implementations of clojure: Clojure(JVM), ClojureCLR(.NET CLR), and ClojureScript(JavaScript). Supporting this reader conditional can facilitate code reuse as much as possible.

And on the preface to the 2nd edition of SICP, I noticed this quote from Alan J. Perlis:

Is it possible that software is not like anything else, that it is meant to be discarded that the whole point is to always see it as a soap bubble?

which seems an echo.

Since the sensorship is beyond what Google's founders had expected. Even we native Chinese had not expected that then.

However, given they have invested so much on the Free Music Plan, and the market was rewarding, why, all of sudden, they pulled their feet? And risking of losing the world's largest and emerging market?

Though, I agree there are multiple causes about that. But simply thinking they pulled because they were losing ...

For those who can't afford a premium private repos, it's a good idea. You'd better off not symlinking the repo in Dropbox dir, or you'll keep dropbox very busy when you are editing files.

Unfortunately, it's not log based. Just like Google Analytics, you insert a little script in, when request comes in, the script will update MongoDB in the backend.

Though, your need are not unusual, I guess. So, publish it.

That new node-based v2.0+ implementation can be 10x faster than the ruby-based implementation.

    # Ruby version
    $ time lessc -v
    lessc 1.2.21 

    real	0m1.681s
    user	0m1.492s
    sys	        0m0.176s


    # Node.js version
    $ time lss -v
    lessc 2.0.0 (LESS Compiler)

    real	0m0.104s
    user	0m0.088s
    sys	0m0.016s

Though it should be noted that Rubygems has introduced a bit overhead in the Ruby version.

This stand-up hacking approach, does not only make my hacking productive, but also helps me on critical thinking. When I'm not typing, I just walk away from screen, and do some critical thinking instead. After I cleared my head, I'll continue typing and hacking.

Looking at screen while thinking would make me scatterbrained, and get nothing done.
