And that's what happens when you don't double save it.

When someone asks why I like art and computer interest really questions whether I follow a path or another, but I really question them why I cannot follow both. Personally, I know that I following both paths is one of the best things I could do.

In this case,   this is what Dick Gabriel talks about and how this has benefited him I his path of working with computer science.  He mentions that his way of living has opened his perspective in relation to the way computer science works. This is due to the fact that sometimes people have a limited perspective in a specific area and they need something different from it to really understand this and to change the way things bother.

Dick also mentions the way  Lisp has changed and how people who have used it has been influenced by it. There are many other programming languages that have been influenced by the way it thinks and how it has to revolutionize computer science. Anyway, the purpose that this language was created is Artificial Intelligence, but as computers have evolved, this cannot fit the spot they left.This programming language has evolved around  its life and has been changing,  but this  has evolved in other ways. just like  the use of macros and CLOS. Therefore, this language can be compared to some powerful languages such as python or C.

In comparison to what I've been reading on the book, I consider that this language has been tagged into a comfort zone for mathematicians and people who study computer science, but with the right way of teaching it could be easily taught at schools (not the first years of elementary, but at some point in the middle). Also not as the level and speed we are been taught, but with small courses that can be in line with math classes . I think this because some mathematical and computer concepts go along together but people never see this, unless that you belong to these areas, but there are many ways a kid learns and this could make them understand more and even generate interest on these topics.

Power! Unlimited power!

Throughout history,  humans have seen how life has changed,  how their expectations of technology have evolved and how wrong we were about it since the beginning. In this case, I am referring to the fact that we have a big imagination about what we are capable of, but sometimes, this idea might go too far or ever to close,  there is no middle.  In the specific case of technology,  we have something certain,  some authors like Asimov were right about the limits we should include  in this area, called "The three laws of Robotics": A robot may not injure a human being or, through inaction, allow a human being to come to harm. A robot must obey orders given it by human beings except where such orders would conflict with the First Law. A robot must protect its own existence as long as such protection does not conflict with the First or Second Law.   where we define a limit in the way we use technology.  In the case of comp...

The ultimate weapon.

As programmers, we have a limited language and an objective to create great things.  I consider that wee needs to understand that in comparison to other careers we have something established and that needs to be understandable to everyone else without rodeos.  Up to this moment at the University we have been taught many programming languages, the way to use them, the internationality that they have and the many ways we can use to solve a problem. We are the society of limited language but great imagination. There are some good practices that as developers we need to follow, such as making the code as understandable as possible, to generate the documentation, to describe what we are doing and so on, so that people who read our code can easily understand it and make the proper changes in the correct time. But sometimes, people do not understand it and generate the code as hard as they can, so that their ideas cannot be stolen.  The problem with developers who do ...
