Are you thinking of JavaScript? In Java you can’t even write hello world without a class.

It's really interesting. I tried Kawai and Yamaha digital pianos in the store and I didn't like the key action of the Kawai at all, nor the sound. Now my piano teacher has an “actual” (non-digital) Kawai grand and it feels just

In German, the game is called “Ich sehe was, was du nicht siehst”, literal translation “I am seeing something that you are not seeing”, and I feel this addresses two issues the author has: Being able to see something narrows down the univer

I haven't been doing Lisp in a looong time. But in other languages, I do find it annoying that my own code has to abide by certain rules that the implementers of the language do not have. For example, most languages have "if"

Multiple tables are the way to go with SQL, you'll need multiple tables all over the place. So if multiple tables give you a “wrong” feeling, I argue that the feeling is wrong for the technology. It would be very normal to have tables

I haven’t used the VSC remote thing. I believe it requires to install things on the remote computer, and if those are unavailable you’re out of luck. Tramp makes do with whatever is there.

Why is it called "dual" if there is only one item in it? I guess it's a joke of some sort, but I'm not getting it :-/

The difference between virtual environments in Python and node_modules in JavaScript is minor I would say. It’s the same concept. I believe composer has something similar. It’s a directory where packages go and they are not part of the syst

My point was that there are four combinations, and "both, either, or neither" suggests that all four can happen. But actually, only three out of four can happen. It can be both a statement and an expression. Yes. It can be neith

I can't think of an example where let x = <something>; compiles but <something>; does not compile. I think all expressions are statements.

Conceptually, xargs applies some logic to each item in a list. Many programming language support this, e.g. Python: for item in some_list: foo(item) Of course, the above is a replacement for "xargs -n 1" only; bu
