It is to me incredible, how many „developers“, even “10 years senior developers” have no idea how to use a dubugger and or profiler. I’ve even met some that asked “what is a profiler?” I hope I’m not insulting anybody, but to me is like goi

Yes, but I still don't understand that explanation. Clearly self is a descendant of Smalltalk, that purified a part; but still is a descendant. At least I understand the "ur-" as indicating linage, more about time as features

I don’t understand why self is placed in the list instead of smalltalk. Smalltalk came first, and Alan Key was the one who invented the “OOP” name. Also ML is seen as a child of Lisp.

I've seen similar effect with Montesori, Waldorf, Kumon methods. If something is wrong, is because it was misunderstood, or not properly done.

Thanks. That sentence is constantly repeated, as if it would be some kind of absolute truth. The fact is, for every end, there will be probably some means that are totally justified, and some that not. I think the original context is: no ma

That gives me the idea of making a sort of transpiler for it as a side project. Maybe I will.

If you look the table you will realize 9/10 means 9 of 10 included HW devices run. Is not a scale from 0 to 10. Is not a "out of ten" in usability scale. Just count the devices that work, vs. the ones included in the HW.

Context is important. Maybe that was told in the first 3 minutes of the briefing, and them came 30 minutes about the shocks. I would not assume the briefing was so thorough.

If anything, this makes the study more revealing and terrifying. Basically under ill guidance of authority, people can become real monsters. That is the conclusion I got from it, and is now still worse.

I had an interesting conversation with a guy at work past week. We were discussing some unimportant matter. The guy has a pretty high self esteem, and even if he was discussing, in his own words, “out of belief and guess” and I was telling

The line is fine. Even if I use GPS a lot, I still try to keep my ability to interpret maps and find my way. Same with calculators, even when today are dirt cheap, are not allowed in school, and being able to do math without it is a valuabl

I can attest that. I installed panels on my house, they are not enough to cover my electrocity needs, let alone gas (heating). Even if it would be enough to cover electricity needs, the cost was (upfront) more than the equivalent of the nex

IMHO today is difficult to do anything without a smartphone. I hate the state of affairs, but it is just so. Anything needs an app to work. Public services in some countries requiere it. Paying, etc. But in traveling is almost essential. GP

No. it wasn't. Delta crosses 04 in diagonal, so basically they should have taken the head out of the window and look behind. They had the clearance, so they just tried to cross. The problem is for some reason they did not hear the &quo

They could not see, because delta crosses in diagonal to the runway, such that the plane comes from behind (and the right side) so the driver has no chance to see. The truck was moving fast which is ok, because you want to clear the runwa

In Europe is illegal to capture and publish ATC. I don't understand why. Anyway I do not know what are you comparing. From pilot friends, in best case I would say a big “depends” in some countries are very unprofessional, in others ver
