Mark Wielaard: New GPG key.
Finally created a new GPG key using gnupg. The old one was a DSA/1024 bits one and 8 years old. The new one is a RSA/2048 bits one. I will use the new one in the future to sign any release tarballs I might create. pub 2048R/57816A6A 2011-01-29 Key f...

A Geometry Problem in Scala
I ran into this blog about making a pretty drawing in C# and F#.
The task is to draw all lines between n evenly spaced points on a circle.
The solution in C# is surprisingly hard to read because it intermixes control flow with the details of the graphics processing. The author's attempt at a “functional” version just translated the iterations to recursion, and it wasn't really any simpler. I figured that I could do better in Scala. (Someone else contributed a much more functional version, and it is along the same lines as my Scala solution.)
Here is how I approached it.
First, I figured that I needed a way of getting all pairs (i,j) of numbers 0 ≤ i < j < n. That's easy.
def pairs(n : Int) = for (i
