I try to wrap my head around NSXMLParser and all its delegate methods. Would be great if someone knew a good tutorial on that. I need an overview that describes the concept and how things are done. I know the seismicXML example from apple but it's really hard to grasp.
I also know there are plenty of other frameworks like TouchXML, but I want to understand NSXMLParser. I just want it. I know it's stupid. But I want.

Introduction to Event-Driven XML Programming Guide for Cocoa from Apple docs is good enough imo.

I know this as been asked but couldn't find an answer that I understand...
Some people told me about the main thing are sagas, but it doesn't look such a big advantage to make me spend my bucks on NServiceBus when I already have MSMQ....
That's a little bit like asking "why do I need ASP.NET MVC when I already have HTTP?"... a little tongue-in-cheek, but still with a lot of truth in it.
NServiceBus gives you message serialization, a sensible threading model, routing, and several ready-to-use messaging patterns out of the box.
MSMQ gives you... message queues! And a fairly complicated API with many low level options that give you no real pit of succes...

I'm looking for a premade IRC bot, that i can easily install on some of my channels. They are mainly support channels, so we will need to be able to add commands to give out important notices etc.
All help is much appretiated.
You should have a look at Supybot. It's an extensible and easily configurable IRC bot written in Python. You will find many plug-ins on the official website or on GitHub. If you happen to know some Python, it is probably your best option.
You could also try Eggdrop (or Windrop which is basically an Eggdrop version for Windows). Many TCL scripts (extensions) are available pretty much everywhere.
I suggest you to visit the IRC-Wiki which could be useful when you need information about anything related to IRC.

I suppose it's not a specific programming question, but it is a question about programming nonetheless.
While I completely understand all the code that i read in the book that I'm using (I have even figured out an error in the book that I fixed my self, within seconds just by looking at it)there are things in there that I'm sort of remembering without really .. thinking about it.
I guess my question is, is it essential to remember some code, or is it a bad practice?
Again, I'm sorry if this is a waste of time to anyone, I'm only trying to learn as much as I can about programming and instilling good habits is important.
I know that Understanding code is much better, and It's what I did when I was learning objective-c , I literally stopped remembering code and wanted to understand it instead of just remember, and it worked. Now that I'm working with Cocos2D, It sometimes feels like I'm remembering instead of understanding, if that makes any sense.. Although since I know Objective-C now, I understand the code, but the order in which it is written.. I'm sort of relying on memory..

Does anyone know of a site, newsgroup, message board, etc. where I can submit some of my Scala code to have it "reviewed" by experienced Scala developers? The code works and whatnot, but I'd really like to learn to be more idiomatic when coding Scala, and often I find myself reverting to more imperative like development because I can't find a "better way."
Try on Code Review
My advice is to upload your project to github - make sure to add copyright and licensing information. Then post the one or two relevant short snippets on Code Review and link to your project on github.
Note that there are plenty of questions here on stackoverflow where users have asked to turn something that is imperative to something more functional or idiomatic. The key is to break down your problems into distinct issues you're trying to solve then take the one that has the most chance to get an answer and ask a question about it. If you can make it self contained then that really good. See https://stackoverflow.com/search?tab=relevance&q=%5bscala%5d%20%20idiomatic for some ideas...

I started learning CLISP. Should I improve my self. What can be done with this programming language? What's it for. I'd appreciate your answers and comments. Thanks.
Common Lisp, of which CLisp is an implementation, is a general purpose language. You can do with it whatever you want. For a nice, practical introduction, take a look at Practical Common Lisp by Peter Seibel.
Judging by your comment you're looking for ideas to implement using Common Lisp.
It seems lots of people nowadays are using Project Euler to try out a language: it's a source of fun, small problems that lets you learn some maths too.
Failing that, find an itch that you have - a program that you need - and write that in Common Lisp.
