   I completely agree. How cooperative is the upstream in regards to porting it to FreeBSD? I am looking at Dart for a while and the upstream doesn't even seem to be interested enough to provide a tarball that would be possible to downloa

   Hi, blog author here, like I mentioned in the blog post one of the developers suggested that it might just trigger a re-use of poisoned memory. OpenBSD (especially on snapshots) enables a lot of 'hostile' development features - po

   I can tell you how I switched a couple of years ago. I started to use emacs for the sql-oracle mode since it was tons better than the standard sqlplus client shipped by Oracle. I still kept doing most of my coding in vim but gradually was l

   Hi @bootload, I deeply appreciate your response. It's sometimes hard to read between the lines as English is not my native language. I'll try to put some more light and perspective into how my previous work place 'ticked&#x27

   I can't relate to baseball but I notice a common pattern that applies to most fields. You are told to do the basics over & over again so you: a) Learn the motions b) Learn how they work You can't successfully apply your know

    I recently came to a similar opinion[1] of Angular like both of you though I was evaluating AgnularDart. I decided to stick with plain Dart mostly of the reasons you mentioned (JavaScript ecosystem feeling like a mess). Polymer does look gr

    Hi bnb, I started programming around 20 years ago - self taught and experiencing the same problems as you in the early beginnings. I made mistakes when I started - jumping around between languages - thinking I couldn't grasp something

    Is there a specific process you follow? Lean/agile whatever buzzword that is closest to describe how you go from idea to delivery. How close do you work with your clients and how much is your system changing in response to feedback? What dr

    Yes, AuroraUX is generally dead but on the bright sight it initiated[1] the development of GNAT-AUX[2] which is fine up to this day and even compiles Ada for Android devices :) [1] http://www.dragonlace.net/questions/quest_003/ [2] http:

    Testing out snippets of code without altering a structure of the database you have installed locally/on a server. Doesn't require a startup of the database - the results can be discarded and you don't have to worry about cleaning it up :) G

    Honestly, I am observing closely the way some new system languages evolve - D, Go, Rust and I see a large intersection of features with Ada. I am always amazed that no valid discussion/comparison of those languages and Ada erupt in these th

    Each database worth its salt will use as much memory as you allow it to use in order to avoid physical IO. Your point is valid of course. I just wanted to point it out for people that think each action in a RDBMS results in a costly IO oper

    I can sustain this claim. I work with a system implemented almost entirely in Oracle PL/SQL. Some tables in the system are nearing 800-900 columns, their size often exceeds 600 GB per table (not many of such large tables though). Querying i
