ContextL

2005-08-22 :: /programming/lisp

Pascal Costanza announced ContextL:

ContextL is a CLOS extension for Context-oriented Programming. Currently, there is no documentation available, but you can find a small test case in the distribution and an introduction to ContextL's features in a first overview paper.

Too bad, COP has already been used for Concurrency-Oriented Programming, a phrase dubbed by Joe Armstrong.

Anyway, what is this latest fashion of calling stuff bullshit-Oriented Programming?

The White Masai

via Irina: book cover: The White Masai

An extraordinary life, an extraordinary book! During a vacation in Africa a young Swiss falls in love with a Masai warrior. She exchanges her comfortable life in Europe for a humble hut in a Kenyan village. The book is an honest report about 4 years of marriage in Kenya, that inspite of poverty, diseases and cultural differences were full with beautiful experiences. Life can be more interesting than any film...

Apropos film, the filming of the book comes to German cinemas on 15th of September. I definitely want to see it!
