Honestly, Java 8 has a ton of new features that give it a very functional feel if one desires. Check out the new Stream api and map(), forEach() functions

This is real easy in Java: private DayOfWeek getDayOfWeek(int year, int month, int day) { return LocalDate.of(year, month, day).getDayOfWeek(); } @Test public void getDayOfWeekTest() { assertEquals(DayOfWe

I agree with the point, and appreciate the article stating in words what I've felt. If a recruiter tries to push the 'game room and free snacks' angle, I immediately grow concerned that the employer is out of touch with emplo

Understand the true problems that need to be solved. Often these have nothing to do with written requirements. It may manifest itself in the system's design, or in what you need to do to fight for time to work on a given area with man

Doesn't seem to support querying for phrases surrounded by quotes. "Bruce Springsteen" and "java code" didn't hit anything matching the phrase directly.

Nice. I was aware of the style, but not the name for it. Also liked the first line of the criticisms: `Critics of Yoda conditions see the lack of readability as a disadvantage that outweighs the benefits described above`

Agree. Perhaps it be better-named 'betweenInclusive(firstValue, secondValue)' and 'betweenExclusive(firstValue, secondValue)'

It's better to write your code so that it's easy for a later person to understand it while reading. To that end, use a greater-than sign if reading the code makes more sense that way. E.g. if the method name is `findAllUsersOverAg

This guy's job is what originally attracted me to software engineering... the idea you could be so good and important to a company that they just pay you to pump out something awesome and let you do it. Granted this focuses on a failu

Reminds me of https://github.com/TrsstProject/trsst and others like it before, like App.net. This isn't a new idea and I'm 100% behind a more decentralized and free interwebs. The question is what will it ta

Selenium provides this capability with a tool that records where you click on your website and then it records that as a macro which acts as an automated test. However, the issues remain the same as with any other ABT test. An async elemen

Totally buy they could reduce actual errors that matter. I've worked with many a QA who would get bent up over a detail outside of the spec that didn't really matter, and where all QA testing was manual. Coders (good ones) are wel

403 would be the proper status if the user was authenticated but forbidden. 503 would imply an error on the server and that the service is unavailable. Here the 403 is appropriate because the user is logged in and trusted to some degree by

To add to this, coders frequently have managers who don't allow time to test and improve much beyond what works, even when asked for.
