Baldur's Gate 2 is still my all-time favorite. It is more than just a game. One of humanities greatest works of art.
Wages cannot be too low. It's simple supply and demand. Too many workers, with little demand for their work. Evidenced by the fact people are willing to work at wal-mart wages. I would love for everyone to be successful…
I'd suggest skipping Clojure altogether. The JVM cannot support tail call optimizations. Use of recursion will be muffled a bit. Not very lispy. Newer is not always better. Try racket or common lisp.
I don't have a tombstone worthy project. But my favorite personal project is a database comparison tool. It is basically a "diff" on databases. Everything from the schema, to stored procs, indexes, etc. It also works…
I thought I was the only one using C# and Postgres. Secret's out!
Well you do have to ban raw pointers. Heap allocation is safe with smart pointers.
New? I'm still going headfirst down the Emacs rabbit hole. You can never escape wonderland.
Pasting a response: Blocks are an improvement, but not the same as RAII. A block is literally converted to a try-finally by the compiler. It is the same thing with a cleaner syntax. There is no safety added to the old…
Reality is there are many Java code bases which handle resources like this. For java 6 and below this not bad code; it is how you are forced to deal with resources. Even with the new block syntax, you have painful…
This is going to sound like sucking up on hacker news but.... Hackers and Painters by Paul Graham. It is the reason I looked into lisp. A very entertaining read that made me change my opinion on several political issues.
If you work for people who promote MBA's then it could help get you promoted. Other than that I see little value. I'm a pessimist. How much will the MBA cost and how much extra money would your promotion bring in? Need…
"i have seen...." ads, offers, or friends salaries?
The best tool for that is a programming language.
Not to mention ammunition is extremely liquid. It's used as currency in some countries.
Pre: Locks, security stickers on the windows, barking dogs, good lighting, fake or real visible cameras. During: security system that calls police. Fire arm (last resort). Post: hidden cameras so you have a record of…
Math time! Lets assume you do not work during college and must pay with loans. Here is where you could be in 4 years time with each path. College: -50k (debt) and a degree in CS. Work: 480k (cash) and 4 years…
Absolutely. We should not have to waste time proving a patent is bad. The root of the problem, the patent system itself need to be abolished.
