   But... Java developers should have a clue how bytecode works in the JVM. Otherwise I agree.

   You mention that such a thread was discussed ~20 years ago, and such information is so old that it's aging off the web. Considering that I was a toddler ~20 years ago, I could not have understood it then, I think. So why not start a ne

   Why SQL? Edit: Joking aside, I had read the information on REST. I did give it more than a few minutes' thought prior to posting. But I still did not quite understand its prevalence today; perhaps that speaks to my inability to compreh

   All the C derivatives are getting closer to one-another. How different are Typescript, C-sharp, and Java? When JavaScript adds gradual typing, interface, etc. won't all these languages be nearly the same? The runtimes will differ but t

   Should strings be represented as codepoint arrays in memory? In C, for example, should I always decode input and work with that, or convert to utf8?

   Also I’d like to clarify that this wasn’t intended as a critique of REST, nor an argument against . I wanted to understand its motivation.

    What I failed to say when suggesting a POST only API was that the various access methods could be encoded in the body of the request. Also I didn’t understand that REST isn’t tied to HTTP’s methods - but rather HTTP is itself a REST impleme

    I've googled and read but it's not getting through - I'm sorry. Could you offer an answer or explanation yourself?

    I should say “freedom”. Three square miles of freedom that is.

    I have an idea. Why don't we give up on a strictly declarative format/solution? What if, associated with each possible API call, was a pseudocode or generalcode representation of the code executed to validate the request? Is readi

    As long as they get rid of “marked as not a real question”. Completely meaningless and the first instance of “hostility” that comes to my mind.

    I would say that no ramp is better than a dangerous ramp. And I've seen many wheelchair ramps in the US.

    Would you say that working out those problems has given you a solid fluency in math, in that you spend little to no time now on approaching a new problem? I want to develop a strong intuitional base in math, and from what I've read sol

    I'm going to try that forming that habit. I think that there definitely is a "snowball" effect to productivity, in that easing yourself into work by starting with the small things is more effective than starting on something

    I think there's a great analogy for why he cares so little about his intelligence: do you think Michael Jordan sat around admiring his build, his height, etc? In a competitive environment, it's best to accept that some of your abi
