I started programming when I was 7 while sitting on my father's lap, typing BASIC into a TRS-80 CoCo as he read out the instructions from magazines.Currently working at Cactus Commerce on the Commerce Server product team.

Ping 141: The new Bing, Disney Kinect, Soundwave, 360's on sale
May 15, 2012 at 3:01 PMFacebook security settings updated ... thanks. I can't believe all the apps that had access. Last time I checked there were perhaps 2 or 3 that had access to my information; when I checked just now, there were at least 20. I basically disabled everything except direct friend access and enabled approval for friends to tag me or anything like that.
The Make a Wish Foundation sent my brother (he had Duchenne's muscular dystrophy) to Disney World when I was in grade 6. It was a great time. We got to cut ahead of every line, since he was in a wheelchair. There was this young couple who were at many of the same attractions that we were, as we made our way through Disney World. The young woman in her 20s was also in a wheelchair. Later on during the trip we saw them together again walking around no problem. We were all pretty disgusted. Just thought I'd share. Disney World was a great trip though - I'll always remember it, and my brother had the time of his life. Make a Wish is great.
On with the rest of the show....

May 02, 2012 at 6:12 PMSCA sounds similar to Managed Workplace's Service Center ... I was on the original dev team for that product, 8-9 years ago. We too had an agent based architecture, which I worked on in particular, and the event monitoring system, etc....

Man I could have kept listening for hours … why are your videos so short Charles?
Just kidding man.
Erik, you said something about parser combinators being useless for tools due to them having to work in on incomplete input, got me thinking about the probabilistic programming/machine learning stuff as in that other Lang.NEXT session, and that perhaps parser combinators could operate concurrently on one or more predicted models, which must always be valid input, and if there are no valid predicted models, then it's an error. Just a thought.
