Agree. I didn't go to a single lecture after 2 months at university (electrical engineering). My TA was shit as well - was too tied up in computer vision research and found us inconvenient. However we formed a club (5…
Definitely but that gurantee is thrown away the moment you pull a 3rd party black box in. I'm suggesting it's feasible but not necessarily perfect and when it does go boom, which it does when you have 100 million HTTP…
This. Most of the code I write is gluing stuff together rather than inventing new things which is what I'm paid to do. A lot of people say this stifles creativity and is boring but the productivity is off the scale.…
Yep but you'd know which dereference it was if you unrolled it. Nulls happen unfortunately even with the best checking and intents.
Why? We write less code in Java than we did in C#. To be fair NetBeans writes most of it. I still write C and don't hang myself because it doesn't have generics!
LINQ isn't a magic bullet. collection.Where(s=>s.Transaction.Amount < 100).OrderBy(s=>s.Name).Single(); I'll let you debug the intermittent NullReferenceException that threw in production with no PDBs...
The only bad choice was the foundation on which to build the product. The above technologies are pretty much a response to the world being better elsewhere. Unfortunately the responses are pretty immature, poorly…
And msbuild will no longer work. I agree with you though - its a PITA.
That's a living hell. I wish you good fortune.
As for the company, we've got over one million lines of c#. As new subsystems appear they are being moved to other technologies (Angular + Java + Jersey + maven + guice + Jetty + Redis + postgresql). This takes time.…
Have you tried merging a JSON file? XML is a shit ton easier. I can't see this as a good thing.
I've been through EVERY ASP.net update on every version of .net and every MVC update from CTP2 onwards, dealt with WWF being canned and rewritten, moved APIs between old SOAP stuff (asmx), WCF and WebAPI and rewritten…
I found you have to drink a lot of it before it becomes drinkable which is a bit of a catch 22...
The end has been marked for over a decade you realise?
It's dead. Start again.
This is £70 in the UK. That nets you a Lumia 520 as a comparison point. For £30 more you can get an 8Gb Moto G. I can't see it selling here.
That's basically rubbish and misinformation. You're complaining about WDM audio. There's built in WaveRT and external ASIO stacks as well. The latter has become the standard on Windows for professional audio and is…
I don't buy that. Everyone I know has a sub $100 USB interface hanging off their machine and swears constantly at the latency and wishes they'd just stuck with ASIO on Windows... Personally I still have a workstation...…
Yes I because: 1. They actively monitor your connection to be able to determine whether or not you have "infringed". This has non legitimate utility. 2. They are building a mailing database which whilst is under a mild…
I'm terminating my Sky account over this today. At no point is this in my interest as a customer. They took £750000 to voluntarily violate my privacy. They obviously will have to develop a heuristic for suspicion and…
£19 each way from Waterloo to Barts. That's expensive.
Works fine with Google Maps for me, even in blackwall tunnel. I think there is some inertial navigation through device accelerometers as well.
TFL and AA road watch know that so there is no reason Google couldn't. It's all data - after all the cabby most likely got it from the same data through a different aggregation medium (radio/paper).
Google is pretty good at that too and knows what the traffic is before you get there. It's impressive but no more impressive than navigating a 4 million line software product intuitively...
Screw the black cabs. I didn't realise what a rip off they are until I started driving around the city myself regularly with Google Maps which to be honest with traffic aware routing destroys "the knowledge" instantly.…
