Wasn't this Dave Allen's[^] theory? I miss his stories.

I don't think it originated with him,. but it's certainly something he would have said! Pity he insisted on a contract clause limiting his shows to just one repeat - I'd love to see all his stuff again. Finest stand-up (or sit-down) comedian I have ever seen (or heard).

Nice. There are new languages all the time. Wired wrote a small piece: looked interesting; didn't recall D before that. Oh well: another waste of time. Stick to the money makers.

I recall Dr. Dobbs Journal pimping D_b_ (D-flat) a loooonnngggg time ago. Is this a relative?
Will Rogers never met me.

I was working on a new language called "C+++" but now "D" seems to have jumped ahead... I could rename it "E" I suppose... no, that's been done. Ok, "F" it is... er... "G"... "H"... Aha! "H" it is! I'd better call it H++ straight away before someone takes that.

"D" was the next big thing back when I was in college learning "C", 14 years ago. Has something changed?

An acquaintance of mine keeps trying it (and Go) at least one a year before getting fed up with one thing or another and going back to Python.
Did you ever see history portrayed as an old man with a wise brow and pulseless heart, waging all things in the balance of reason? Is not rather the genius of history like an eternal, imploring maiden, full of fire, with a burning heart and flaming soul, humanly warm and humanly beautiful? --Zachris Topelius Training a telescope on one’s own belly button will only reveal lint.

Yes, go to H***, Go straight to H***. We'll all go to H*** in a hand basket. ;)
It was broke, so I fixed it.
If you plan to go, and enjoy blues music, going in early September might be a good idea: http://www.bluesinhell.no/[^] If you rather would like to see it freeze over, you might rather go in January. It is close to the fjord, and when weather is bad (extremely humid and ice cold), everything might be covered by half an inch of soldid ice Freezing over[^] You might have guessed that the name of the place does not mean the same in Norwegian as in English (it is related to "hill", but it is not as steep as a hill), but the guys up there sure puts a lot of effort marketing the place based on the English interpretation. The most popular Norwegian post cards of all times is the one from the railroad station, the cargo (or in Norwegian: gods) handling office, with a large sign declaring: "H*** Gods Expedition".

I already programmed in E. I don't know if it exists yet, but it existed in Amiga.

I didn't study in US schools, as I am Brazilian. And I used E by myself when I was 12-14 years old.
