And also at this point it's allegedly inciting violence, so his position might even be consistent given changing circumstances. Whether it actually is incitement is still debatable but a person of principle can still change their posit

And IMs, meetings, and just thinking about code. I think it's important to be able to touch type quickly and efficiently use autocomplete because those are directly in the way of transforming your thought into code. But in the times I&

I think scraping is just inherently brittle whether you go by the DOM traversal or by regex. AI may have the best potential. Regex can be slightly more brittle like you point out with commented html or myriad other problems, but it can also

The commenter is just referring to the nature of neural networks, a pile of weights and thresholds that you could conceivably write out as a maniacal mess of deeply nested if-statements.

@sjrd is talking about limitations for JS not other languages. C, C++, Rust and others already have their own DOM/JS support. WASM is exciting for statically typed languages especially. JS is not the target. It might eventually benefit

In some contexts it might be easier to use my project https://github.com/machinepublishers/jbrowserdriver which requires Java/JavaFX (no external browser bin). Chrome Headless is a godsend though.

My guess as to why people in Java use generics so much and switched to them so quickly is the squiggly yellow lines in their IDEs. A lot of Java code is easier to read/write with explicit and implicit casting and no use of generics. An

I'm relieved to see how this turned out. Very reasonable path forward. Was concerned that Java 9 would break everything which thankfully that has been averted, yet progress can still continue on making Java more useful with modularity.

Guitar Center never adapted to the electronic era and are now being run by bankers to squeeze as much money out of the business as possible. They will go the way of Radio Shack. It's a lot easier these days for young people to mess aro

When I typed the word "may" I meant it. If it's medically established that properly diluted vinegar dries the skin I'd be interested in knowing that. Otherwise, it seems like reasonable speculation to me rather than pseu

Wikipedia says one cause of dandruff is yeast-like fungus. Perhaps PH plays a role in that. Also vinegar has cleansing properties and may be less drying than detergent, and dry skin is another cause of dandruff.

You can write code like Hemingway (simple) or like Shakespeare (dense). Hard to say whether one is better than the other without some attempt to quantify and measure things. Seems more like just a preference. In regard to boilerplate the au

Employers are in a unique position to offer group health plans. This used to be more relevant before Obamacare and is becoming relevant again. There is no equivalent to a group health plan one can buy individually.

Ah so that lends credence to my rationale for scraping websites. Until I actually look at the scraped data no scraping has taken place so no terms of use have been violated. When I look at the scraped data the terms of use come into effect

If "functions as a service" (AWS Lambda) takes hold, I think Rust will be a popular server language since you'll need services with almost no startup/warmup time.

It shouldn't be too hard to set up some common code for making service calls. If the service isn't responding, the caller compiles and starts it, assuming some env variable is set to signal it's a dev machine. I've done
