Here's one more data point: I enjoy a full range of musical genres and I typically go in cycles. I'll go for a week or two on trance/progressive (A State of Trance Episodes 300-450). Then I might switch to technical death m

I've noticed this as well. From a software perspective, even while working on an extended task that I mostly enjoy, if I'm presented with a novel, seemingly short task I usually have no trouble at all getting motivated and switch

I just wonder what it'd be like to be unable to take your work home with you. Writing software allows me to do my job from wherever I want/need. Oftentimes that ends up being in my bed or at my desk late a night because I fucked

I’d go farther, anybody who is concerned with application performance may soon see/smell their hair smoldering. We write a lot of code that needs to run as fast as possible (processing, post-processing, generating real-time weather&#x2

They mention inter-satellite optical links, but an operational space-to-ground optical system might be tolerable.

Yeah, but you better define some stopping criteria or else you'll end up with a PhD if you're not careful.

And make sure to record it so that at the end of your yearly review cycle, and before the raises are decided, you can remind your upper management of your notable accomplishments.

Why would you want to do that? Are you running on a severely memory-restricted machine?

At least the older one is being productive and producing content. Hey, there are some silly YouTubers who make real money from just streaming their life (games, fashion, etc). Arguably, what they’re doing is better than sitting in front of

Looking back, what about now? Overall, are you happy with the amount of time you did spend with your parents?

Perhaps it's my OCD, but a Lisp with uppercase namespaces, etc. just rubs me the wrong way.

Bigloo has a special place in my heart. I spent a few years building scheme bindings to various C graphics and networking libraries. I can't quite put my finger on it, but I found it very enjoyable. Getting C-like performance from s

One of my all time favorite games, without a doubt. I used to play it on the Atari 800XL, but it had a different name, I believe. "Behind Jaggi Lines", I want to say. Edit: fixed game name

Obsolete or not, I'd hope it remains in the collection of sorting algorithms tht are presented to students in undergraduate algorithms course. It's instructive to compare and contrast the strengths and weaknesses of these various

Hogwash. If your CS program isn't teaching the general fundamentals (algorithms, data structures, basic machine architecture, compiler theory, etc) that's unfortunate. But a CS degree isn't a 4 year equivalent of a programm

Yeah, but customers don't need the ovens in order to eat your bread. They do need the cloud in order to use your software, though.

Well, why wouldn't they post a bug fix? I don't see how that says anything about motive/cause. They'd do that even if it was intentional.

Let's say you have a system running some sort of RAID such that the remaining, online disks are all critical (meaning if any additional disks fail, you lose all your data). I can imagine a scenario where the system has some way of pre

Btw, the answer is "spaces" because tabs can be interpreted differently from editor to editor. To take it a step further, its 4-space indents. I've seen code where people pull off 2-spaces, but it gets crowded failrly quickl

Going with your theory, I'd say that pointing devices are more precise which means they require more brain-CPU cycles to operate ... pixel-space is large and you must position it within some delta of the target widget you're try

Assuming f1() has side effects, those two blocks of code may be very different.

Perhaps it seems superficial, but one of the reasons I don't like PowerShell is because the language is ugly . There is something about using capital letters for commands that really bothers me. It may be an OCD thing, bc I use lower

Of course users don't really care about the design principles used to organize source code. They care about features. The design principles are a concern for the developers, and if some standard isn't obeyed, then the users may

I exclusively use landscape mode due to vision problems. In landscape mode, I can zoom the text a little more and still read the text semi-comfortably without having to horizontally scroll as much as I would in vertical mode. I know exactl
