The way I view programming is different than it was a week ago due to various factors. First, I have spent a lot of time lately with my head buried in the .NET documentation, and something in the back of my mind said, “If C# is so much more efficient than VB.NET, why do all of the code samples appear to be the same length and look virtually identical?” Then, I reread an e-mail from someone telling me that XYZ language was awesome because it needed dramatically less source lines of code (SLOC) to do the same thing as more mainstream languages. And, I have still been multithreading the same dumb little piece of code. Finally, I read a post by Mark Miller about Emacs and Lisp.
