Descriptive names will never help you understand the implementation of the business domain of math code. From the Domain-Driven design perspective, the symbols are the ubiquitous language which you should stick to. Here is a more appropriat

Vue is an SPA framework, so it solves the problem by "rendering all the html" as actual preprocessing and then serving it to the browser which visually renders it, as opposed to the usual document.onLoad() approach where the base

> eliminating maze-like cul-de-sac-heavy street layouts You can actually do the opposite. You make suburbs heavily maze like to slow traffic down. Instead, you build plenty of shortcuts for bikes and pedestrians: the direct routes. That

This isn't a problem in practice though, you just get "strange" constants with units equal to some negative power of U in your equations. The same thing happens when you move from electrostatic units to SI: suddenly Coulomb&#

Formulae simply aren't understood like prose, or more precisely, formulae aren't understood as isolated bits of logic. For plumbing code where the logic is important, descriptive variable names are useful in aiding comprehension o

In moving from the untyped lambda calculus to the simply typed lambda calculus, one loses the ability to have non-halting programs. For me this just illustrates a fundamental point of type systems: limit the possibilities to make them under

It doesn't invalidate the rule, it just checks if you understood differentiation as an operator and not as a procedure. The general approach is to take an equation involving a function and differentiate that equation then factor the eq

That is a very common but misguided attitude towards criticism. It is fairly easy to determine you dislike something without necessarily knowing how it could be improved. Knowing how much people dislike something is useful information in re

I personally take a 20% pay cut to work a four day work week. Of course at any moment I could negotiate a 25% raise by going back to 40 hours a week. Why do I do it? Because there are plenty of things I want to do with my free time and I ne

It is known as a false dichotomy, and it is extremely common. A true dichotomy would be more along the lines of: he is right or he is wrong. Of course all possibilities subdivide, if he is wrong he is knowingly wrong and a liar or he made m

Exceptions are harder to analyze because they create scopes from which you are already "handling" errors, but if you add code to the scope that throws a new error of that type your handler may not actually be able to handle it.

I am not sure if you truly wish to understand the point here, but consider the protests in Hong Kong. No lies. No allegations of fraud. The people just do not want to be ruled that way. Facts just don't matter to politics and never hav

I'm not porcupine, but I feel that we are definitely using relational models. The drive towards objects (and REST as well) tries to project data into a hierarchy. Orders belong to customers, so you nest orders under customers. But you
