On the other hand, I find most frameworks don't allow for DRY. The typical case is making a 40 char DB field, and then having to code a check in the payload to ensure field is 40 chars. I've wondered if any system has…
I'm similar, I find (instrumental) Jazz works, although it's generally not my first choice of genre.
I'll claim the only universal truth in programming as in anything is: "moderation", and it's corollary, "there is no silver bullet". They are all rules of thumb, and knowing when to apply them is the most important…
If you've read the book, the movie is a supreme disappointment. Such good stuff in the book that disappears in the movie.
I don't think they did real world testing on the "improved" ones. I'd say it's obvious the number thirty could use a degree sign after it, but making it smaller and putting a box around it instead of in water, makes…
My take is we were asking the wrong questions, and now we know that, so hopefully we can figure out the right questions.
Always upvote articles that imply Agile can be lacking. Really, meta-processes are the way to go, and can be defined by checklists. E.g. For this effort, will documentation be helpful? check yes/no. Then you aren't…
I'd think the Keystone pipeline would have been the lesser of the two evils.
Don't worry, they will just ask their next interview candidate and then they'll have the solution.
It means they just need to solve the "halting problem" first and then transactions can get back to normal.
Replace "consciousness" with "gobbledygook". Does it exist? Can you get closer to it? Can't apply science to it. I think you are saying we have a rough idea what it means, but then it's a sliding scale as far as ability…
I think consciousness probably requires pleasure/pain, and no, just setting negative/positive values in training does not mean pleasure/pain is involved. The best a neural network could is pretend it is conscious (I'd…
My quick take on "gifted" programs. * These are really supposed to be for kids that learn differently, not necessarily "smarter". * The percentage of kids in these programs is higher than should be expected. * The…
Interesting. I guess it gets back to "first cause" argument. If life is organizational, does it require an organized process to form. Isn't metaphysics the only thing we have to figure out how we got here? Provable or…
Wouldn't the Big Bang represent a much higher level of entropy than now?
Does reversing time makes it "easier" to get life, than the current direction?
I've wondered why we don't just assume the arrow of time was reversed in the past? We know that in the past the universe was more organized (had less entropy), so it doesn't seem like much of a stretch from believing…
I think Go and Angular should have died, and would already be footnotes in programming history if they had not been introduced by Google. Let's make procedural programming great again? I get it, you can compile it and…
Thanks, I didn't know there was a name for it. But every single code example out there is an anti-pattern to this as far as I've seen.
Why do we organize by shape, and not by function in our monoliths? We put all our controllers in a package, all our DB accessors in another package, all our "data objects" in another package. Even in OO languages like…
I disagree. If you are able to merge them you spent the work to originally have them split. So more work to start with microservices. It goes back to agile, the easy solution is have a monolith and figure out later how…
I find it bizarre that anyone familiar with software development would think this is a good idea. I mean if gov't creates a useful API (eg. weather), or creates some reusable useful module (eg. something like…
I think it's called a toll road. Around me they are owned by some French company.
Exactly! Where do you draw the line? Does CIA/NSA have to drop their shorts?
Actually, it's going with the wind, but faster than the wind. Veritasium also has a video of the dead fish going upstream though.
