Version 20 of Julian M Noble

AKA JMN

http://cyberclad.com I like programming in TCL and Erlang - preferably in the one project. I'm not the Julian Noble who does interesting stuff with Forth - but one day I hope to be *a* Julian Noble that does interesting stuff with Forth - It seems such a bizarrely mindbending language.

I get frustrated by GUIs and applications that block while doing some background task, so I'm a big fan of threads. So much so that I think I'm sometimes guilty of using them where an event-driven, or multi-process structure may have been simpler. John Ousterhout's: 'Why Threads Are A Bad Idea (for most purposes)' didn't sway me ;)

I'm rabidly opposed to the GPL. I've not yet had the guts or inspiration (or organisation) to contribute any code to the wiki - but if/when I do - consider it public domain.

The ghosts of VB haunt this TCLer

Julian, always http://c2.com/cgi/wiki?AssumeGoodFaith . Don't rush on other wikis to complain about X and Y. Try to see their point of view first. Use your empathy and you'll see that the person who you thought was a devil is a totally decent and honest person. All the best! RobertAbitbol

The very first link on this page leads to a page that displays the address < julian at cyberclad ddot com > very clearly. Why wasn't this message sent directly to the person concerned? For how much longer will this wiki be tarnished by the public discussion of private matters? It was so peaceful and constructive until a few months ago...

It still is peaceful and constructive. The above message was not meant to be aggressive. Why would you try to avoid personal messages. Gee! We are human beings and not robots! RobertAbitbol
