I would imagine a simulation to be extremely complicated and fairly unreliable given that the Economy is and can be more volatile than weather (and of course is a chaotic system as well). That being said I bet a simulation would probably be

I'm curious if any one remembers SlickEdit. Circa 2000 I had an internship and SlickEdit was the Sublime Text at that time. SlickEdit for some reason went into complete obscurity though and I can't recall why. I'm not saying

I agree with you and probably should have made that statement more specific (ie the extreme class loading that typically happens in most Java apps and what exactly is a full started up app). A typical closure app for example is well well ab

The lighter let-it-crash is a circuit breaker. This is done quite frequently in the JVM world because .. well the JVM has a really shitty startup time.. even restarting threadpools can be expensive. I get the whole let-it-crash but I really

I'm curious how many scientist the US has on climate change? I have no perspective on quantity of scientist for climate change (or pretty much any field) ie is 110 a lot or is that normal for country like Australia?

Annotated methods are also much easier (to debug) than a ton of callbacks and in theory have less GC stress.

Here is my problem with all these (pseudo)small request handling frameworks.... They seriously tightly couple your code with a relatively unproven library. Not mention most of them use a fair amount of singletons and static initialization.

Its funny with all these new sort of bracket like functional programming languages with similar syntax it actually took me a minute to figure out that the code is Swift(probably lack of experience)... Looks like Scala.. no scala doesn'

One thing I love about OCaml is named parameters. I am an explicit kind of guy and ironically even with all the type inferencing OCaml has it is damn explicit of a language (although I sort of prefer ad-hoc poly but oh well). It seems like

Yeah I got trashed karma wise on a previous comment explaining how I had to port some Ruby apps to Java. I don't even care that much about either technology but just mentioning that I had to port something to Java earned me -4.... seri

I had to find out what a Mersenne number was again (vaguely remember but forgot) and I was shocked to find this problem in mathematics: "It is not known whether or not there is an odd perfect number, but if there is one it is big! Thi

I guess the key is (pun not intended) is stolen passwords and not systems that have not been setup because I bet particularly wifi and various systems "guest", "admin" and "demo" would be high up on the list.

That was my problem with Riemann. I love its core but I really want something built on top of it. Basically a Jenkins of monitoring (since clojure is JVM). I contemplated building it (ie taking Jenkins plugin system as inspiration) but it w

by agentgt 11y ago
We rejected Riemann as well because there was just too much overlap with other tools and the user interface was not very good. I actually think Clojure is a huge selling point.. seriously you should see the crap that Rackspace has https:&#

My wife and I use Asana. Asana is not so good for note taking but my wife seems to love it (I have grown to hate it as it is a reminder how she is far more effective at GSD than me).

I was surprised not to see Dale Carnegie's book either but I suppose its rather dated and not as scientific ( How to win friends and... ). Carnegie's book had some of the greatest impacts on my personal life and professional.

Yes the problem is my wife is not in silicon valley and although she makes plenty of money (6 figures or so) she is tired of not having a more important role. She has effectively been type-casted.

Any chance your mother-in-law might be interested in giving advice or mentoring? As I mentioned in a previous comment my wife has been desperately trying to rise up the ladder but has been shunted (none of which has anything to do with her

I have to imagine JVM interop is substantially easier than the ABI route but I'm not an expert in that area (that is it substantially easier to call legacy code and probably port). I do like Kotlin though.

Ignoring the name... are there any plans to make GitLab Mercurial capable? We still have Mercurial repositories and still sort of like Mercurial.

by agentgt 11y ago
Yes but Bitbucket has unlimited private repositories. So if your company has lots of projects compared to lots of people Bitbucket's pricing model is better.

We use BitBucket extensively at my company for two reasons: Mercurial support and Unlimited private repositories. The mercurial support is great because of legacy code (I finally have come to admit that Git is superior for most purposes). T

I would not be surprised if the percentage of Apple's code that is in Swift is more or less the same percentage of Google's code using Golang (with Golang having a slight advantage maturity wise). I'm sure Dart is even less.
