A few interesting links to share this morning:
Jeff Stefan, from OnStar, has a good article on Embedded Intelligence over at Embedded Systems Programming.
David Williams is working on a new programming language called Dustyscript:
"The intent of this project is to write a programming language powerful enough to retain a 8/9-yr old's interest but simple enough...that the syntax can be grasped by them"
I've been playing around with cross-platform frameworks for a few days and so far two of them are worth noting: wxWindows and CPLAT. There's a huge list over at The GUI Toolkit, Framework Page. An OS X centric compilation has been put together by osx.hyperjeff.net. Mike Crawford has a column on various topics related to Cross-Platform Development. That and other articles can be found at GoingWare, Inc.'s Bag of Programming Tricks.
