I like my new oneplusone smart phone, but it doesn't lend itself
to thoughtful expression. Yes - understand that, but this bit is
what I mean: " I can only discuss what I've dealt with my own
projects". One of the best things about Adam Ruppe's books and
talks is the way he takes you on the journey of how he figured
something out. Humans learn as much by imitating those ahead of
them (who seem human and not out of reach) as by book learning.
Understand wanting to wait before saying much, but at the moment
the GC is one of those effective FUD factors even though my guess
is it needn't be for many people who use it as an excuse not to
look any further into D.
This is what there is currently:
