Prepare for trouble! And make it double! To protect the world from devastation!

When we think about a programmer we think about someone who is alone in a room, who don't know how to talk to others and even someone who doesn't talk to their family. But people who think about programmers just like that do not know my friends, who are the most awesome programmers in the world and that can help you and teach you when you can not continue. I think that is the purpose of pair programming, to help each other and to think outside the box and to finally understand and teach that people need to work together and that people who surround them matters. 

In this case, I consider that some of the people in my generation know how to solve this way of thinking and working but not everyone and this should become an important way of developing. This idea is due to the fact that we think that people who we normally choose for our teams is not on the level as the way the other classmates who surround us. This way of programming also gives the programmer a new way of thinking and the idea of sharing.

Another way that this way of programming can help the development of students is to mark a level that the institution gives as an objective so that everyone has the same level of programming. This could be used in classes such as  "Advanced Programming"  where we should have already know the basics of programming and we can use our different ways of thinking to solve a  problem.

I consider that there are some elements that our personalities show while programming but when we go somewhere else to work these elements sometimes could become the point of our problems. This is needed as an educational resource to know if everyone is leaning everything, but we should learn other ways of thinking. They might affect the way we program and the way something is being affected by the resources we use or even the whole product per se.

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...

This podcast was about the way Clojure was developing. I consider that the way Rich Hickey explains it is quite simple and tries to convince the audience that this programming language and way of programming is quite good, useful and simple. In this case, he explains since the use of Lisp, and how it was really popular in the 1970s,  but as computers become more complex, could do more with less and requiring more complex programs the multiparadigm languages lost the battle. Anyway, he tries to expose the way he and the java developers try to make a great comeback with this programming language. This is due to the fact that it got advantages and some other applications among some programming languages. In this case, I can compare this programming language with Mathematica, a programming language (that people consider software to compute math problems)  that can do as much as Clojure can, but with the limitations that you should understand the way the math works and the way...
