Better integration of concerns. The driving force is capital. 1. HP's acquisition of Mercury Interactive and current plans to integrate it into its QA/Testing product line 2. Microsoft's acquistion of Hyperion and Stratature,...
Yeah, I'm back to looking at it and it really wasn't by choice. You see, I created a small program using D to launch scripts based on some parameters specified in a config file. We need this at work to be able to run some...
If programs were as dense as mathematics papers, only mathematicians could read them! That would be a disaster. It is a *very good thing* that most programs are less dense than that. When it comes to readability we should be...

" If you compare Haskell programs to C code or even C++ often, they are about an order of magnitude smaller and simpler. " What substantial (> 100 KLOC) applications have been written in both languages to warrant such an...
