And when you are running more than one application at the same time how is that supposed to work?
In the US, charging more for credit card is allowed. Charging more for debit card is not. If paying with a debit card you should demand the cash price.
I would guess two things. First, continued growth the percentage of sales where a card is used for payment. Approaching 100% for many businesses. Second, emergence of high interchange premium rewards cards from…
Wow, 10% is way more than any interchange. So I suppose it a 10% discount because the cash goes right into the owners pocket, and is never taxed. I do wonder to what extent small business complaining about card…
Boomers are not a very valuable market for advertisers. The youngest boomers are 60 or older, and old people are mostly set in the products they buy and less influenced by advertising.
Card network rules in the US prohibit merchants from adding a surcharge for payment with a debit card. Most merchants are either unaware, or prefer not to care. If you are using a debit card at a business that assesses…
Sounds like a good job for AI. I do fear that the future will involve deploying AI do deal with the mountain of slop produced by other AI's.
There is no requirement in the Java language to use getters and setters.
Or when IBM renamed everything Websphere.
I have not had much experience with DB2, but given that the relational data model and normalization was invented at IBM (Codd) and IBM's implemenation of those concepts was DB2, DB2 performing poorly with a normalized…
Maybe it’s because you are really a computer programmer. Computer programmer employment is expected to decline by 6%.
My initial reation was 'What is a CMS'? Naming your company or an initialism and never saying anywhere in the product description what the initials mean is not welcoming. Now I know that anyone who does not know that a…
You don't have to tip an Uber or Lyft driver either.
I think more effort should have been made to live with 65,536 characters. My understanding is that codepoints beyond 65,536 are only used for languages that are no longer in use, and emojis. I think that adding emojis…
This article is nearly 15 years old (2013). According to center on budget and policy priorities, the number of SSDI beneficiaries has fallen from is peak in 2014. So this article was written about a trend that peaked a…
Why would anyone buy their game engine when it is available for free? Seems like a solution for a problem that doesn't/won't exist.
Can a systems programming lanugage use garbage collection? I don't think so.
Seems to me that if Congress would prefer that any disputes arising from the implementation of their laws be handled by the admistrative agency charged with enforcing it, all they need to do is say so in the law. Not…
I found 'A Philosophy of Software Design' by John Ousterhout to be useful. It contains alot of solid easy to understand advice with many examples.
I think whats more harmful than unit tests are code coverage metrics for unit tests that devs feel compelled or are required to achieve. The easiest way to achieve code coverage goals for tests is to write lots of small…
You need to spend $16,666 just to cover the $500 annual fee. That’s a lot for many people especially when many low end retailers don’t accept AmEx. As already state rewards cards are a subsidy for the rich, or at least…
They can but they generally won’t. Use of the chip on the card shifts fraud liability from merchant to issuer. Burner card numbers are for card not present transactions.
NY state has plenty of room for onshore wind, just not in the places where most of the people are.
Is it really that much different? You still need to handle a Left value, and a lot like handling an exception.
That’s not true. Java has 2 types of exceptions checked and unchecked. Checked exceptions are what this thread has been calling errors, and unchecked exceptions are what this thread has been calling exceptions. Maybe it…
