I don't think hating police is something you got from America. It's easy to see why anyone who doesn't fit in would hate most police forces in the world. edit: And now I'm being downvoted for saying this despite seeing A

>2. When you want to implement a method which applies to multiple libraries, you end up writing `fooString`, `fooInteger`, `fooDatetime` etc. DRYing is too hard. So you end up writing 10x more methods As discussed in the article, you wan

Not a universal trick. Depending on how smart you end up getting and how big your queries are you might end up with an extremely large number of terms in your queries.

I live in Athens, Greece, work for a company that calls itself a startup (but has been around for a decade) and I make ~35k a year. My general sentiment is that locally that's more than what most startups are paying, but at the same ti

In this case there are no drop in replacements unfortunately. You'd have to drill holes. But I'm okay with keeping these stock regardless, they're fine if you tune up.

My Squier Bullet made in mid 2019 is the best guitar I have ever played. It sounds more than okay (which is subjective). The body is light but without any head dive present. The neck is a dream and the fretwork is impeccable. The tuners are

What? I'd be surprised if that was only 100m. Every TI, the prize pool surpasses 25m. Which means that just by buying compendiums and treasures, people have already paid 100m (25% is contributed towards the prize pool). There's al

The author makes caffeine sound like a super power. I wish I could experience that even for a little bit. I drink a lot of coffee (I think I average 4 or 5 quadruple espresso shots a day right now) but it does nothing for me physiologically

Interestingly, Elasticsearch exposes something similar to this, based on a Lucene level feature that enables index level sorting. You can specify such an index level default sort (similar to what they use custom IDs to achieve) and it will
