Starting from smokey definitions such as "potential", and that learning equals memorising.

IF Learn slow and you won’t reach your potential. Learn fast and you might. Learn exponentially and you’ll achieve more than anyone thought you could. THEN ... Else, we don't know.

I may not be an orthodox user of UML, but I like it. Especially sequence diagrams, but also classes. I like it in the AMDD fashion: quick sketches to show only important parts of a system (or part of it). Using it to generate classes or fro

The article cites exactly the Aristotelian syllogism. I agree the title is a bit clickbaity, but I found it well written and explaining well how we got to computers since Greek times

What you say about some writing today is true, but beware of the bubble effect of social networks and the internet: not everyone reads or writes like you do, and just because the set of people famous now doesn't intersect with those st

There is also another great thing that can dispense knowledge, the same that inspired both classics and mathematics: real life. You mention Taleb, so you must be a bit familiar with Mandelbrot work. Well he observed reality carefully, free

In case you're tempted to fall for this rough classification of modern sins and a revival of old ones, think again and discover how awfully biased this article is toward a certain moral. If you sleep with dogs...

Everything may be. You're missing my point: if someone makes a claim, as you said, should provide "proof", I think in this context one study would suffice. Otherwise he should use different tones, like "maybe", &quo

Nonetheless they state a problem in Java culture. That should be backed by data and not by personal opinions. Otherwise they're worth what is worth. The burden of proof is on who says Java sucks in this or that way. I'm not saying

That is interesting but I don't know if I have the time, on the other hand I already know cursive. Plus I realise Italian cursive may be different from what the post is referring to. It appears there are two different english cursives

I didn't make the original post, so while your answer is legit, it goes back to the original poster

That doesn't seem to be a problem for users of those libraries: there's an hidden assumptions in the post, that every person on this planet approaching Java has to take part in its use cases. Especially FP enthusiasts and hobby pr

If Java survival is to be attributed to the talent of its developers, isn't this the "Java culture" the post is talking about, which is supposed to be the problem?

Go on and argue that, by providing evidence that by using Java you decrease those three metrics compared to other languages, in projects of similar size. I don't know if there are studies but if you know about them please share. Otherw

What do you mean "trying" to use? Many corporations use it with profit. Is there a better way to make money? Probably. But this way is very much used and profitable enough. So trying is not the right verb...

Java doesn't have a cultural problem. People need to understand that Java culture is almost entirely enterprise culture. Don't want a language influenced by that for your project? There are plenty out there, pick one

Everyone in the comments seem to hate cursive but I actually like it. Not reading other people cursive, but nothing matches the fastness of cursive for writing down rapid thoughts. Sometimes I need to write something very fast and scribbled

Misleading title, second time this week. "Can" becomes a "could in the future" in the article.

thanks. I stumbled into that but hasn't find a good tutorial. I understand there's a book but I was looking for something free. I'll look into that, meanwhile, have you got other options?

This is bullshit. I don't want dopamine hits. I want money for my code. And guess what increases the money I get from my code? Naming stuff consistently with their meaning.

I can't read the whole article, but just by opening its link it changes from a definitive conclusion to a "may affect". It wouldn't surprise me if weak correlation was presented as causation.

Sadly I know, I've read Alex De Britto talk about it and his editions should be more faithful to the original. Anyway there are manuscripts at https://bukowski.net/

for me personally the only thing I evaluate this type of services against is: - is it free for my personal projects? - how many interesting libraries I may use are there? - does it offer a free tier of pipelines and things like that? - can

yes if you have tables -> DTOs -> REST services without much logic the need for TDD beyond endpoints (I don't think it can be called TDD at that point) is limited. If you have services with lots of logic though... it could be use

Read about AMDD. The idea is: you not only write tests to design and iterate on that, but also sketch a model of your system and iterate that. Depending on the size you may want to sketch subsystems, etc. Now the only problem I have with TD

I think debugging is the number one skill for the average programmer. It implies being quite good at reverse engineering. But as far as debugging is concerned, it is a must to know: 1) how to reset frame 2) how to set conditional breakpoint

I pretty much agree on everything, plus three personal ideas about reading: 1) there's no need to cluster. I like better to read different topics at once, you don't know what ideas are in there that may apply to other fields by an
