I must've misunderstood your comment. I thought you were saying these pattern matching rules were basically souped up if's. Elixir has pattern matching on function level but it's also heavily ingrained in the whole philosophy

`switch boolValue` insists you do something with the false part, `if boolValue` does not. This is just looking at it from the most atomic level possible. If you have a group of booleans you get pretty complex lines of code. Switching on a t

It could be renamed "Things that suck about Java" and you wouldn't need to remove much. It's true that if-statements are something you might want to avoid in any language but Java doesn't give you as many ways to do

Perhaps Swift is a better to use as a cross-platform LLVM compiled language, as it is very close to Kotlin in terms of syntax and patterns. C++ is a huge language and has a ton of gotchas.

Yes written Spanish. Not sure how people fix it when they speak? I hear people say "muchachas y muchachos" a lot on political rallies.

Actually I see a lot of people write x or @ instead of o. The x is the variety most sprayed on walls in political statements, the @ is used for stuff like birthday invites. Some people I know do it. To use x in an English text comes across

Removing protective padding and helmets might help in American Football. Rugby doesn't use them and it's actually a safer sport. But apart from that: the guy is wrong of course! Working in JavaScript still drives me crazy because

It's not exactly the same as railway programming as in Swift it's typically not used to connect functions together but rather to replace separate callbacks with one "result" function and to hard type certain results. One

The transistor count of an A11 is 4.3 million, the Ryzen has about 4.8 million depending on the type. And x86 is a bit wasteful in terms of what it does effectively with those transistors because the front-end required to translate x86 inst

Don't worry, next year it'll be introduced on Android.

If you want to visit The Netherlands don't (only) go to Amsterdam. It's like only visiting Disneyland when you go to the US. It's really nice but you don't really get a realistic picture of the country (at least the cent

How do you know they're doing that? Not that it doesn't make total sense to use TypeScript from any angle I can imagine. > I think that the C# focus of .NET is a major mistake holding the platform back, especially when we have

That’s a ton of different combinations of flagged features that might or might not exist for a user and almost all possible combinations need to be tested.

JSON performance is super important for a server, far more than for the usual macOS or iOS clients. JSON parsing might be based on the basic JSON parser found in Swift, which isn't fast at all, rather easy to use and secure instead. It

It might as well be KVO under the hood, no problem. It's just that annotations can be really handy to indicate a ton of stuff that would otherwise be lines of code. I use it in other languages all of the time.

You don't understand the problem. It's the possibility of types versus the types declared. Swift will always try to go with the most exact type it can find. C doesn't have types. C is just a bunch of numbers. Swift always has
861.
by dep_b 8y ago
Still not as fast and probably Objective-C got a speed boost as well. Objective-C is a very simple language and types are quite explicit. In Swift you have implied types like: let result = jsonList.map { Class(from: $0) }.filter { $0.i

Yessssss for the allCases property for enums!!! Enums are really the best feature of Swift. I enum all the things everywhere. This is kind of the finishing touch to it. Binary stability would be nice. I do care about the download sizes of m

True. I think there was a Money cocoapod that used your trick. But you can’t do anything with them you would normally do with the base type unless you add a ton of logic. Also in F# you get the type Meter/Hour if you divide Meters by H

Type alias is a poor alternative for true primitive types. Like (pseudo code): primitive Dollar: Decimal // no mixing with euros primitive Meter: Double // no confusion with miles You can do the same in Swif

You would receive a README explaining how to get set up, what pattern was used and how the classes reflect to that. Like "*Fetcher is a static object used to fetch Model objects over the network". Should not be more than 200 lines
