I've been reading The Culture series lately! If you're into science fiction then it's a set of very enjoyable reads.

Totally concur, that's very similar to the method I explain to folks when they ask how I go about debugging.

I've always visualized it in my head kind of like a binary search tree, or maybe the bisection method in math for finding roots. I want to think about as little code as possible, so I take steps to cut the problem space down as dramatically and quickly as possible.

Plus, the less I have to think about when debugging the less likely I am to end up with an actual headache.

That link was quite the fascinating read. Here's an open question, but do others experience some form of anxiety when thinking about future developments such as this?

It's not out of fear. To me, I want to truly experience the advances, not just perish and be forgotten in time. Science is so blissfully fascinating; there's so much yet to learn.

Perhaps a better way of putting it is a realization of your own mortality?

Just as a general note of interest, I too would pay double the price for solid F# support!

So sorry this is so delayed. It's been bizarre lately. Anyway, I can be reached at duncan.hill@live.com

Yeah, I'd be interested in an invite if at all possible. I'll be the first to admit, though, that I tend to lurk and read more than actively comment.
