Look him up. Out of that compensation, he funds some interesting causes, like Extinction Rebellion.

I'm open to correction but I believe this is used in the Cosmopolitan library.

This is presumably not what you're thinking of but ofc Javascript uses objects as prototype "types". As is, they wont provide what you want, but if there was some kind of "compile-time" processing of prototypes such

Tbf, 11mb is all it needs. Add in the graphics library and assorted libc utils that Awk is using and it would be similar.

I'm impressed by the way it lands its jumps. It's surprisingly "athletic".

H2db has a Postgres-compatibility mode too that would work for local testing. https://www.h2database.com/html/features.html#compatibility

This is a good argument. I would only add one thing to it: a scientific understanding of the principles behind the new technologies makes major step changes in mechanised capabilities possible ("paradigm shifts" urgh), and probab

I believe the intention is to allow operations on multilayered business objects to be composable. So your approvalConfirmationUpdated() method may actually be made up of a sequence of smaller operations, each of which I might want to use

OTOH, if you are good at perfect matches and advertising the fact, you'll probably replace those 2 lost customers pretty fast, and with lots more on top.

Did you read the article? The Eastern HVDC will run from Peterhead to Drax via the North Sea.

He mentions it at the end (the 'YAML subset' alternative), but the edge cases only cause issues if your keys and values begin with special characters but are intended to be simple text. I tend to defensively quote stuff (probably

Nice. The flexibility in identifying whether a task needs to run gives a lot of power.

I said nowhere in that article method polymorphism is implemented. Well, not quite. You said that it isn't OOP without method polymorphism. So no need to fly off the handle and accuse others of misreading something you didn't wr

(which was the case for every C/C++ app especially UI) "wasn't" ? My early career was blighted by having to write cross-platform C++ apps. At the time, Java was utter bliss in comparison.

Openshift does something similar (though you need to annotate your deployments). But yes, the simplicity is refreshing.

That's great! As I say, my swing experience is very old and it's probably just a case of remembering the basic action framework more than anything else. But that fits in very nicely with how your library works using with() .

This looks really cool. Applying a thin layer over parts of the standard library is a very good idea IMO. Reduces the dependency tree but a lot. One question (my Swing knowledge is at least 15 years old!): what's the simplest way to

Leafy greens have been part of human diets for forever. If they weren't popular in your part of the world, vertical farming should receive thanks for having made them so.

No. Thats because the Premier league's pay is off the scale compared to South American leagues. Even lower PL teams have World Cup winners playing for them.

I'd add Visual Basic to your "glue bits together" list. After working on C++ & FORTRAN professionally, Visual Basic was like a breath of fresh air. I remember thinking "how could programming be this simple". It

Note that "they" in this case is the new parent company. IIRC, they were a fairly new bank, heavily reliant on technology. They had the tech but not the customers. TSB were the opposite. The parent thought their tech, which up to

IME, returning a "stringly-typed" error is only wrong if you don't provide enough context in the returned error message. You can describe what you were doing as an error message and pass it back up the stack, each layer addin
