Sure is. I'd go as far as to say that Java syntax is poor. Then again, the question with functional interfaces is whether or not functional programming is useful to you, or how useful.

That's an interesting point.

Streams API (or functional programming in general) is an abstraction over explicit loops. If you don't find that inherently useful, then you'll not have the motivation to get used to the different syntax. I've had my beginnin

That's monopolitic. If there were a producer that did not participate in the price-fix, and could scale his production up, he'd outcompete the price-fixers. I wonder what keeps this setup in place. Sounds like something you'd

The problem is that Google Calendar (and most other widely used calendars) has poor portability. I too use it, because my work uses it, so I have no choice, if I don't want to end up with multiple calendar apps. I hate it for this reas

Brings joy to my semi-warm fingers too. I'm developing something that will interop with some spreadsheet software for basic CSV editing, and I'm thrilled that there's a host of TUI tabular editors for that.

I play some Insurgency: Sandstorm from time to time during the day. It's a descendant of CS:GO in many ways. I usually do it when I need to facilitate a mode change in my mind.

The player did not lose 600 hours of entertainment, so I don't think that the movie comparison works. This seems similar to burning your photo album. There might have been an emotional attachment, and a significant non-financial invest

You might have more luck if you ask for an explanation about a specific thing he said, not the whole of what he said. He said a lot of things.

When I was a teen, I read and re-read the Wikipedia articles for stress and stress management, because I was having problems with stress and that was the only source of information I could think of. The articles talked about a form of self-

Devices probably became more energy efficient in that they can do more with 1 watt-hour, but I doubt if they suck up less watt-hours: probably more.

In extreme composability, it might be hard to determine where the origin of a bug is. Worse yet, when libraries start adhering and relying on the brokenness of other libraries, fixing the once minor bug isn't enough anymore. How do you
