Reasoning about code. Creation of inscrutable bugs. Forcing to create convoluted hierarchy of data structures to work round the problems this convenient 'feature' created. The kicker for me is it is perfectly possible to use Flex

I was a Flex developer. No JS framework felt anywhere close to the ease and power of Flex until I saw React. React is Flex done right. React is Flex but armed with the knowledge that two way data binding is the fucking devil.

Everyone who wasn't Adobe realise that standardising on a new version of Javascript that Adobe already had a runtime and tooling for thus having the defacto implementation of would put themselves and a massive competitive disadvantage.

After coming to a shuddering halt trying to get a build env setup for a trivial python script (poetry couldn't install the requirements because pip.... SSL... Blah blah blah) I just used our image used for the drone step to run and tes

"Charing Cross (Glasgow)" Station in Glasgow is the true Charing Cross. I can only applaud Google Maps there. You were looking for the vastly inferior "London Charing Cross"

You have consecutive numbers appearing next to each other. One of the constraints is that no consecutive numbers can appear orthogonally. This isn't a standard sudoku, there are extra rules. There would be a huge number of valid soluti

by Marazan 6y ago
That doesn't guarantee you that you generate a Sudoku solveable without backtracking. The human techniques are all about forward actions only, never guesses.

by Marazan 6y ago
It's more that solving Sudoku by Brute Force is easy. But the trouble with brute force sudoku solvers is you can't use them to create sudokus solveable by humans with a unique solution. That's the fun stuff in writing a sudok

I'm blown away. I can't even begin to think how to encode GoL in such a small program. Jaw dropping.

That chart is garbage for Sweden, it is in no way a 7 day average of the arcgis data I posted. The official death total by day of death has a massive lag, if the out world in data chart was actually a 7 day average of it there would be a hu

Sweden banned international flights from outside of Europe. Sweden banned gathering of more than 50 people. Sweden closed down the universities. Sweden permanently closed down 5 restraunts this weekend for flouting social distancing rules.

I mean, the fact that ABCT is not backed up historical events either is a bit of a blow to its credibility.

by Marazan 7y ago
Ah yes, ABCT. First, assume the market is made up of rational actors. Second, assume that sustained irrational investment choices have been made by the rational actors.

The SWF spec was completely open, there were multiple Flash players both open source and commercial. So a lie. Flash was designed, as its very first use case, for touch screen kiosks. So a lie. Flash Player was perfectly performent, shit co

Flash ran massively better on Windows than on Macs. One of Job's specific complaints was that it didn't run as well on Mac as it did on Windows. And that's because they couldn't get the same graphics hardware access they

The thing they have up without a fight was Flex, their Rich Internet Application dev framework. When they abandoned support for it they killed the careers of thousands of developers and removed their chance of dominating web app development

Thoughts on Flash is filed with lies. It opens with lies and continues with lies. Apple denied Abobe access to APIs they needed to make Flash run better on Macs

The NATO air campaign Did. Not. Force. The. Serbs. To. Retreat. It completely failed in the objective. However, the second NATO put boots on the ground the Serbs pulled out. The air campaign was a total failure. Complete, abject, failure.

by Marazan 7y ago
What? Of course America/NATO put boots on the ground. That's the whole point. NATO ground forces going into Kosovo stopped the Ethnic cleansing. The air campaign did nothing. Boots on the ground saved lives.

It did not destroy 93 tanks. The wiki page you link even spells it out. They air campaign destroyed an order of magnitude less, maybe even as few as 3 tanks. They hit decoys or fuck all. Far from levelli g the playing field ethinic cleansi
