"whataboutism" is a propaganda term meant to excuse double standards and hypocrisy. It doesn't work.
Well, in the case the atomic bombings of Hiroshima and Nagasaki are genocide! The all the Americans(still alive) and American state entities responsible for it must be held accountable
No, that's far from anything related to genocide and Putin is actually right: Russians and Ukrainians(and Belarussians) have the same common root in the Kievan Rus. The idea of Ukraine didn't even exit until about 1700s…
There's no free world. There are just different degrees of totalitarianism. The highest level of totalitarianism is in the country with the highest number of criminal laws - that by definition reduce freedom, and the…
Oh, I thought they'd donate half their incomes for some noble cause like buying electric cars for the poor, buying carbon credits, or something like that...
Pointless study. Bad methodology, bad logic (correlation = causation) wrong or irrelevant conclusions.
Repetitions are often a result of changing requirements things that can't (normally) be automated. If you think that enterprises are doing it wrong and you know more than them, you could become rich by showing them the…
Yeah, but there are large software systems with a lot of boring, repetitive stuff that is being done.
>>Why didn't they hire 2-3 (more expensive) experts instead of 10 juniors? << For the same reason they don't hire 2-3 architects instead of one architect and 10 workers to build a small house. Actually…
How about the trillions they stole from ordinary citizens?
There's plenty of concurrency and parallelism out there but there's not a single piece of important software that is written in a functional language. Many people claim many things but when it comes to empirical…
LOL... that's all you had to reply? Typical of FP advocates..
Or, maybe the language is very poorly designed. There are many programming languages. From Basic to LISP to C to Java to Haskell to ... Brainfuck. Some of them are used in the software industry and some are not. There…
A programming language can be created such that it resembles a natural language but it also avoids the ambiguities of that natural language. Anyway, the main idea is that FP languages are way too cryptic and ambiguous,…
>>No. The math notation that is used across all branches of mathematics is consistent and unambiguous (the notation of formal logic, naive set theory, etc). << Nonsense. Actually, ambiguity starts with…
Way too much fuss about something most of the world can't use (the ITV player)and don't care about...
Good luck porting a professional grade tool like Eclipse. :) But I'm afraid we'd have to wait until tablets have the same specs as current average laptops. Although I guess stuff like HTML and Javascript could be done…
Bases and military relationships = wars? LOL! That site is ridiculous.
I don't know who it was created for, but I know lots of FP advocates (Haskellers included) whining that FP languages aren't used (almost at all) in the software industry.
Haskell can offer absolutely nothing Java can offer, while Haskell can't offer even 0.001% of what Java offers. You see, there's a very, very good reason why you won't see any (even remotely) serious and useful software…
Huge mistake on their part, typical of math people. High level programming languages have to be as close as possible to human languages (English) not to some obscure mathematical concepts and notation that most people…
Another stupid scare... most idiots will blame the entire set of Java products, even though applets are just a very minor feat, almost a deprecated one... and the real threat is greatly exaggerated... there was never a…
"It's true. But you know what computers are first and foremost? They're deterministic." That's like saying that computers have mass and are made of matter. "And you know what's one the biggest problem programmers do…
Nonsense... I have never heard of anyone being attacked in any way through java... it's just "security" firms that come up with all kinds of obscure things and try to scare people for pretty much nothing...
"- Most blue collar developers don't understand FP concepts" HAHAHA! The vast majority of FP advocates are either unemployed or work as math teachers. Like it or hate it, FP is absolutely nothing more than a…
