Python 3 gets that one, but python 2.7 doesn't: $ python3 -c 'print("baﬄe".upper())' BAFFLE $ python -c 'print "baﬄe".upper()' BAﬄE $ python -c 'print u"baﬄe"

Could you link some of the good Dragos debunkings? I should disclaim that I know nothing about the author of this piece, and my knowledge of this whole area of computing is extremely limited. I just mostly suspect that the BadBIOS story is

Is that demo widget custom, or did they use a tool to generate it? Do you know?

I hope you write it! I also imagine an encyclopedia of many different algorithm examples, each with demonstrations and graphical explanations. Bret Victor has talked about that sort of thing, and it greatly intrigues me.

His demo is much smoother than mine, I'm jealous.

Used to! But it was quite a while ago that I noticed that they had changed it, I don't remember any longer.

It's really weird to me that the author prefers map(add, ...) to sum(generator expression).

Presumably these are tips for coders, not for language developers. As such, the language has neither generics nor exceptions and the programmer has to deal with that. > is the "break;" implicit in Go? Yes. http://gol

Yup, Ken didn't mention it but we didn't undertake the work until we had shown that an implementation with sorted sets and an implementation with lua were too slow.

That was absolutely our experience as well, the straightforwardness of the code base made it such that we spent almost all of our time writing code and very little figuring out how stuff worked. The test suite is also great (and I got to le
