You didn't want to couple your task to the Runnable interface, so instead you coupled it to an entire HTTP server? And in order to avoid the complexity of calling CompleteableFuture.runAsync, you're using an HTTP client? Could you

JSF and GWT were rightly abandoned, but the new frameworks are different in ways that might be relevant. One of the main problems with JSF is the mismatch between it's stateful programming model, and HTTP's statelessness; as I und

That link is about variable replacement in config strings, which is intentionally recursive. It doesn't mention the use of the variable replacement mechanism when interpolating values into log messages, which is what makes this vulnera

It's also not unlike JSF in the Java world, which went out of fashion 10 or so years ago, and for good reason: relying on a framework to paper over the distinction between client and server side turned out to be much more complicated a

It seems a pretty big omission in a discussion of the US and nationhood to not mention the concept of civic nationalism, as the US is often considered the main example of civic nationalism. If a nation is an imagined community based on a my

Note that you still need to get consent for the cookie in this case, as the cookie is being used for something which isn't strictly necessary to provide the service.

Something pretty similar to the AST example in another thread can be implemented in Typescript using sub typing (as it happens, trying to do something like that is how I first found out about GADTs). Looking into existential types, I see th

"You don't hear about doctors being given a mystery patient and forty-five minutes to save their life using only a whiteboard" That's actually a pretty accurate description of what doctors have to do, at least in the UK.

You might want to have something like `String concatenate(List<String> strings)` and `List<T> concatenate(List<List<T>> lists)`. Java won't let you do this because types are erased at compile time, and Java does

Everything in JavaScript is passed the same way, whether primitive values or objects. Trying to graft a distinction between pass-by-value and pass-by-reference on top of this single passing method is unlikely to do anything other than confu

It is inspired by SICP, but in the sense that it fixes what the authors consider to be problems with SICP's approach. They've published various papers on their criticisms of SICP, eg http://www.ccs.neu.edu/scheme&#

CP/M was surely the direct influence. Wikipedia says CP/M was itself influenced by TOPS-10, which I think also used the slash for options, so the ultimate origin may be with DEC.

It kind of is a type error, in that the error comes from the programmer incorrectly thinking that the function has type t => r, when it actually has type (t, s) => r. It's not a type error from TypeScript's point of view, be

Indeed, I think this post ends up being a good argument against Lisp. The supposed negative for JS, as opposed to Lisp, is that "We’d need something like Babel to parse our file, and work on top of the AST to make sure we rewrite our c

You can do this, but it's not ideal. A function can list multiple exceptions in its throws clause, which share no common type except Throwable, but this combination of exception types can't be represented by a single type paramete

Wiring up dependencies via XML is indeed a bad idea for the reasons you specify. But if you're going to wire up dependencies in code, you don't need annotations. Java already has a method for declaring and providing dependencies f

This is a strange and IMO unsatisfying book review, as it's largely a summary without much in the way of analysis or evaluation (except for the explanation of which real-world critics Kaufman is targeting). But perhaps this is an attem
