Comparisons with ImmutableList<T> from Microsoft aren't necessarily valid, since ImmutableList<T> supports insertion and removal at arbitrary points. The implementation in the article is optimized for adding at the end.

The closed form will become inaccurate at some point. However, there is a way to calculate Fibonacci accurately with O(log(n)) time (ignoring the time to multiply - otherwise O(M(n) log(n)) where M(n) is the time to multiply two numbers of

More generally, materials that don't have definite liquid-solid transitions and don't have long-range crystal structure are called amorphous solids. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Amorphous_solid

There are so many more parts to making an LED, too. First you need the wafer that it's grown on - either silicon carbide or alumina. The latter of which requires cones to be etched down onto the growing surface which is a significant m

You would get a null reference exception if you unrolled that into a loop, too. You should know what your data is going to look like and if any elements could be null or not. Don't blame LINQ for your lack of null checking.

I'm super happy with my Audio Technica ATH-AD700: http://www.amazon.com/dp/B000CMS0XU/ref=pe_175190_21431760_M... They're great as long as you don't mind them being bright purple.

The important point is that "gamer" is a word made from attaching "-r" to the verb game. If you play you are a "player", if you watch you are a "watcher", if you read you are a "reader". Thi

I hate that Google Docs modifies your history when you go to the next slide. This presentation clocks in at 57 slides and Firefox history defaults to truncating after 50 entries, meaning I can only go back to slide 7 and not back to HN. Is

It seems you've missed the point. The article is still arrogant and pretentious but also sarcastic. The writer sees himself as a Passive Income Hacker.

I don't believe it's the norm, but it is what I choose my browser for. I generally have about 4 windows running with anywhere from 5-30 tabs apiece, in some rare cases 50+. Chrome simply can't handle that gracefully. Firefox,

We use FizzBuzz as a very basic first filter in our hiring process. It saves us a lot of interview time considering some 60% of candidates fail (or give ridiculously over-complicated implementations). Resumes are nothing but an exercise in

We considered doing something like that briefly, but decided against it since it wouldn't be easy to get an organized list of the current requirements. With some of our more zealous clients, business rules might have modifications every wee
