If you think you can't have a discussion here to the extent that you don't even want one anymore, then it's probably better if you stop posting. Being serious here.

Yeah, as a Pole I always cringe at such communism glorifying comments. What the hell is a computer club? And weren't we burning all kinds of shit? The only reason people didn't have cars was because they had no fucking money. This

You're not really contributing to a better discussion environment with your attitude. How about you post rebuttals instead of a snide remark?

First of all I'm not a distro maintainer. I also doubt that people would use awk for seriously space constrained environments. And distros ship both awk and python anyway. And again, I don't understand why they'd support netw

I gave awk a sincere attempt, but I have to say that it wasn't worth it. As soon as one tries to write anything bigger than a one liner the language shows its warts.. I found myself writing lots of helper routines for things that shoul

"To see black" comes from "schwarz sehen". I'd translate it as "stare into the abyss/void", basically there is no hope, no future.

I started to learn vim when I was 20 because I was made aware of these issues. Recently I bought a keyboard without a numpad block in order to position the keyboard in front of me without the mouse being too far away. Recently two of my cow

You're definitely still young, just kidding :-) I've heard good things about F# for business logic, but haven't used it myself yet.

Congrats, you're old now :) I think as developers we should constantly learn about new approaches. Doesn't mean we need to use them blindly and follow the herd. Sometimes it's also useful to learn something to realize why one

This may be a useful example for a different approach: http://www.dataorienteddesign.com/dodbook/ Particularly the chapter "Relational Databases" which compares to programming with sets in databases. This boo

Of course a bad programmer will write bad software, no matter the language. But are you not taking this to the extreme? Surely some programming paradigms are objectively worse than others for certain use cases? I've personally come to

I don't see the irony. How is it "socially-anemic"? It is in my opinion obviously much more social to talk to somebody on the phone than to post something on Facebook. Even 1-to-1 chat as you mention is much more social (bu

They're also light on social interaction. Compare: - Sending a post about your holiday experience to Facebook, vs. - Calling a friend, engaging in small-talk about your holiday experience and how they've been lately.

I have to admit I don't quite understand your issue. To me it seems like you've used a lot of OOP and cannot befriend the idea that the data structure (e.g. "Circle" in file GeometryTypes.blub) and operations that are pe

I keep hearing this from OOP proponents, but I just don't find it to be true in my experience. Programs written with DOD in mind have very clear data flow and only pass on and use data that is relevant. Programs written with OOP in min

To be fair the report explicitly states this limitation. jcelerier just conveniently forgot to mention it.

You're misrepresenting the report in order to justify your bias. Direct quote from the report: This is not to say that C is less secure than the other languages. The high number of open source vulnerabilities in C can be explaine

Thank you for your reply, hrktb. As I implied in the first paragraph of my previous comment, even if we supposed that no pay gap existed, I don't think that it would solve the problem. Studies have shown what would happen: single women

Rayiner, thank you for your reply to my comment. I might have worded it poorly, but it wasn't my intention to imply that the author of the article blames the law for it. I was merely trying to point out explicitly why this article is a

I can't help but feel like this is a strong misinterpretation of the circumstances. The author tries really hard to make this a woman's issue, but as far as I know the law doesn't lay out different rules for women specificall

In the context of the overall algorithm, wouldn't you cluster the movie ratings first anyway (O(n)), so most of the algorithm would do computations on those clusters which would have less data than single movies to begin with? I'd
