8/31    Any Common Lisp buffs out there? Is there a most widely-used or best
        free implementation out there (the way gcc is standard on unix)?
        What about commercial implementations?
        \_ Free: cmucl.  Commercial: Franz's Allegro.  Btw, ocaml is better. :)
             -- ilyas
        \_ on a related topic: what Lisp book do you all recommend?  The
           Guy Steele, Jr. book or the Paul Graham one? -- !op
        \_ Ask psb.  He's the Common Lisp expert.
        \_ Gnu offers a CLisp compiler.  Also there is Kawa which is good
           for learning scheme / e-lisp.  Both are free.

4/16    Whoa, I just heard that MIT discontinued 6.001 (classic scheme)
        to 6.01. In fact, 6.00, 6.01 and 6.02 all use Python. What the
        hell? What has the world become? It's a sad sad day. SICP forever!
        \_ old story, they've ditched that shitty book and lang for a while.
        \_ I used to think scheme was cool, then I saw Ka Ping Yee's
           "Beautiful Code" class aka 61a in python, and converted.

        twitter GOOG EC2 amazon API ???
        \_ A CS job not related to API?
        \_ Chip design, or maybe software that does chip design. What is

7/20    For those who care btw, it looks like eclipse is now A Standard Tool
        at UCB ugrad cs, probably replaced emacs.  Furthermore, people get
        angry at seeing Makefiles, (since eclispe takes care of that).  I
        guess it's just a sign of the times.
        \_ The more people at my work use eclipse the less the code is
           managable in emacs.  I'm not sure which application's fault

12/17   wtf is happening to the dollar?
        http://quotes.ino.com/chart/?s=NYBOT_dx
        \_ People are finally taking Bernanke seriously when he says he
           is going to print as many dollars as he has to, to reinflate
           the dollar.

12/18   Are any of you using any kind of scheme involving, e.g., running
        multiple copies of web browsers in virtual machines so that the
        copy you use for random web browsing is isolated from the copy you
        use for financial transactions? What other sorts of schemes like
        this are people using that aren't a total PITA? P.S. I am talking
        mainly about Windows; on Unixes you could always run stuff under
