I would have to agree. Win32 is immediate mode, while WPF is retained scene graph. It's not an abstraction its a complete overhaul. MFC is an abstraction to me.

No. I want no throwaway easily consumable venting. Either take the time to contribute meaningfully or don't comment at all. Anything else is pollution.

I'd like to call attention to describing piloting as feeling slower. It sounds like you have said something objective. But really perception of time is a completely subjective phenomenon as well, constructed from unconscious processes

You swapped the order of method arguments though you are doing x add Sy which isn't the same as Sy add x Number.prototype.add = function (y) { var x = Number(this) return x===0 ? y : (y+1).add(x-1)

I don't understand how .add as defined could terminate. Base case is 0 add y = 0 Recursion is Sx add y = Sy add x Which is of course _swap_ Shouldn't it be = S (x add y)

Same here. I starting seeing front page posts about how much everyone hated the redesign and I had no idea what anyone was talking about. It's a total non issue to me.

I've probably shopped at Walmart less than 10 times in my life. It's probably because they aren't conveniently located for me. But also they have so much bad press that I just don't want to be associated with it. At the

A real problem is that public service is underpaid. I live in a state with a part time legislature that is paid $27k/year. I'm never going to run for office and derail my life by earning next to nothing and being co-mingled into a

Worse is better could be described as "easiest sufficient approximation." But if I have a business problem with a small enough epsilon you might not get sufficiently close with your worse techniques in a reasonable amount of time.

I agree. You can use the same algorithm for computing both. But Arabic has better constants. Because it's a discrete convolution instead of grouping and aggregating. 1 6 1 1 6 7 7 42 1, 6+7, 42 = 100 + 130 + 42 = 27

How could this work? I specify an interface to an api. C Foo(A a) = ... Someone then provides me with some not-A error value. What should I do? What do you mean by implicit.

Either is a sum type. What if I don't want that. It's not about handling errors per se, but modeling the type.

What I took away: If you want to say 'Santa Claus doesn't exist', you can't write a formula ~E x. x=Santa Claus. Because then you are conceding in your logic that some object Santa Claus exists. So there is some connecti
