I sort of agree with you, but there's also a form of over expectation from recruiters and HR services. In order to pass the screening tests, sometimes applicant must have demonstrated skills to save the world, and have…
>think bags of groceries in both hands and you forgot to preunlock If you've got both your hands busy, whichever keylock system is on your door is irrelevant. Only a voice activation system would be Ok.
Or you could have a login system on the phone to get access to remote storage. Stealing phones wouldn't be an issue anymore, except for people using trivial passwords, or writing their password on the phone.
Great! How does a novice like me get his system setup to work with C++, lisp, javascript, or PHP? Do I need to write my own plumbing? Is there repositories of conf files for acme/sam (at least to have some examples to…
I mean for instance changing the name of a value across multiple files, or fixing calls of a function whose prototype had been modified. That sort of things. There are other services that an IDE can provide: - name…
The issues you're describing has been solved by cellphones, but it doesn't mean it was the only solution. More payphones, more reliable phone cards (in France we use smartcards for that) would have done the trick.
Personally, I switched to a tiled WM because I didn't want to go back and forth between keyboard and mouse all the time. I want an editor which I can handle using keyboard alone, and only use the mouse when I really…
That's interesting, but what would be the alternative? Rob Pike's dream setup "is a computing world where I don't have to carry at least three computers - laptop, tablet, phone, not even counting cameras and iPod and…
What is better now with cellphones than before? Why is personal communication so much better now that we can be reached anywhere? I think it's a legitimate question. In most cases, people indeed want to be reachable,…
XMonad is really great, provided you're willing to spend some time learning Haskell to configure it, which isn't a trivial task. It's in my book a very rewarding experience.
It's noise in disguise to me: filler to make it look like he has more arguments than he really has.
Actually, no. What I have now is comment blocks which may contain normal annotations and escaped ones. There's no need to go deeper in meta-meta-something. Regarding the comment inside comment system, if it were…
There are different kinds of death, and the ones mentioned in that study are not really the kind I would like to go through.
Well, You're still young, that's a plus. You mention your project (in your company I assume), which seems to mean quite a bit for you. Besides leaving your friends, that's another point worth considering. Is this…
Some people may not be familiar with C macros, and an example could help grasp the problem you're talking about. You could have pointed out all the things that are done in the C obfuscation code contests, to illustrate…
Indeed, but what if you don't? I'm not saying that intuition is bad. I'm saying that intuition is bad when trying to make a reasonable point.
verbosity.
Some people don't like 4 space indentations, some don't like using tabs, and in most cases there's just an icky feeling behind it. Who's right? In your own post, you give a reason for why you think (and not feel) it is…
give us a pointer to an example please.
by escaping them? Some annotations are meant to affect the code, some aren't. Those who do and need to be given as pure comments need to be escaped.
depends. What other side of the world would it be? How old are you? What will it cost you to move back if it fails? Do you have that contingency plan ready? Your career prospects after that experience will be impacted…
It is very useful, thanks!
Why worry about this? There is no scientific evidence that "genetic modification" (the new kind, rather than the kind of genetic modification that has always been done by breeding) poses any health risks whatsoever.…
I think that twig got its root in the django templating engine (which is python based), because of the resemblance. It's very good indeed. I'm not sure if the original had support for filters though.
PHP followed a very uncommon path. Features were added as needed, in an incremental fashion. Nice syntax is never a huge problem, though that's probably most people complaint. That said, it isn't worse than its…
