The issue is not having space aka house in suburbia... the issue is ownership . I am assuming you don't own your apartment. It would be ideal if you did and speaking as a landlord in a semi urban area it is not "It's unnece

Great nostalgia! Sort of reminds me of the incessant photo flashes during the fight with Mike Tyson when he is about to punch you (speaking of which I never got to fight white Mike, I only beat the original). If I recall correctly there are

Funny thing is I sort of like how many many apps do not override ctrl/command p and respect it. Almost every editor I use I use the print commands (ctrl/command p + some other keys) as my global personal short cut chain. That way

I didn't find the data to be very compelling but the real world example with Pandas and D3 very helpful. Probably irrelevant but I feel the article should probably be titled differently like "Using Pandas and D3 to get a rough....

Not all anonymous classes are lambdas. There are many situations like async streams or even synchronous iterators that require multiple methods. Erik Meijer even mentions somewhere in this video that he is remiss that C# doesn't have a

Groovy still has anonymous classes. And yes there are other languages that have anonymous classes I just didn't feel like enumerating them especially the OP article was about C#. Let me just say this so there isn't any assumption

I have to say I really don't like scaffolding tools other than maybe just an example generator. Typically thats what I use them for is just to generate an "example" project. Somewhat useful if your brand new to a technology o

For me "Continuity" [1] (ie phone call on computer if I can't find my iphone) is the killer feature for why I stick with Apple. I know there are is something sort of like it for Android but someone showed it to me and it didn

Hopefully this is relevant but one of the things I had difficulty with in Rust is closures (or more specifically the lifetime and pointers of closures) and wiring up a system or library that needs lots of callback things. See I'm used

Yes I agree. Even on my Mac I have seen it take more memory than Spotify and Spotify these days is basically running a Chrome instance. I use VLC for most quicktime/itunes things these days.

This is exactly what happened to Greece (my in-laws are Greek). Greeks and Greek Americans are completely cash based. Consequently the government has no idea how wealthy its residents are and tax evasion is extremely rampant. I'm sure

This is exactly how I eventually approached the "passion" problem. For the most part it works but resentment can build up (on both parties). Generally the person or entity has some idea of my abilities and so I say I'll give

Sorry for the late reply but yes you can write some Groovy that will not work on Java (I'm trying to find when and where it happened to me... that could have changed). The issue is that there are things you can do in JVM bytecode that
