I think it means that a library written in Kotlin is difficult or impossible to use from Java.

The biggest thing payments processors are concerned about is fraud. Certain lines of business are risky because they simply result in more fraud, plus there's a whole other level of restrictions enforced by the banks themselves. I don&

Yeah, even BB10 was pretty solid. It was a completely different operating system that kept the name, and the result was that nobody realized how much it had changed.

I think the article is targeting the specific idea that women get less pay for equal work, which may still hold some merit, but appears to be untrue at least for Chicago city workers. There are certainly many other factors contributing to w

New projects should standardize on whether they want tabs or spaces out of the gate, preferably enforced by something like editorconfig, and make that decision based on the preferences of the actual people involved at the time.

I think "simple" in that context means that the software should be as simple as the problem domain will allow, not necessarily that it's bad at building applications with complex needs.

The things I tend to miss most in Go are the functional operations, so I'm inclinced to agree. On the flipside, when I'm programming in Rust or Haskell, I can spend a couple hours optimizing a particular expression until it feels

I know that Go is looking to add support for loading code at runtime, so a plugin system doesn't seem out of the question once it's landed. https://docs.google.com/document/d/1nr-TQHw_er6GOQRsF6T43GGh...

The US as a whole is an incredibly rural country. Compared to Europe and Asia, the US only has a small handful of cities where public transit is economically viable.

Honestly, with the release of Go 1.5, I've taken to using "go get" once to download the library, copy it over into the vendor folder, remove its .git folder, and commit the whole thing to source control. It's easier than

I also think that Go did pretty well to fix NULL. It didn't get rid of it completely, but it (nil) is only valid for pointers and interfaces, so it's not possible to use it in place of a string, integer, etc. It's not as bull

It didn't catch anything on "phuck," despite claiming that it checks phonetically. Still a nice idea, though.

Considering how many cool projects are being written in Go lately, it seems that a lot of people either don't mind the lack of generics or like the rest of Go enough to power through. I'm personally in the latter camp, though I ca

1. Go encourages short variable names. I personally think that the names used in the example you pulled are a touch shorter than I myself would use, and "prevRune" is a little bit ambiguous, but I don't really mind it since

You might like Nim, too, based on that criteria. Granted, I don't know how similar it is to Python, but it seems like it's got potential.

I don't know, that's not really the type of humor they're going for. They generally prefer keeping everything as neutral and PC as possible, and "primary" fits that role pretty well.
