It is, certainly, a relief that the representatives we elect aren't people.

All extra overhead and possibility for error that could be avoided by a not allowing references to also contain not-a-reference.

It's interesting to me that Apple's complaint is that anyone could get their crappy music into iTunes for $40 and that's a problem, but that free is fine.

Democracy seems reasonably alive at a state level. Most of the complaints & problems seem to be with the federal government.

I think this is one of the clearest explanations, to me, of the similarity and differences between nullable & Maybe types. Both encode "n + 1" possible values, but the nullable version pretends it encodes only "n" va

I was impressed that Unreal was running in the browser via Javascript. Unreal Engine 3 is a much more resource intensive engine so that being able to run in the browser is even more impressive.

I find it odd that while the article is titled about Java, all of the code examples are in Scala. The statement "function composition is a degenerate case of the Decorator pattern" in the blog is bizarre to me. OO languages like Java have t

Which only works if you need something that doesn't extend existing classes but only interfaces.

"By emphasizing results rather than hours, I'm able to get home at 7 p.m. for dinner with my family nearly every night" And, here, I assumed that by emphasizing results he meant getting home around 5...

That sounds very conspiratorial. What evidence do you have that it was taken off the market via force / criminal means?

I find http://g-ecx.images-amazon.com/images/G/01/kindle/dp/2012/KC... saddening. Comparing battery life in completely different units? Isn't that something of a sleazy marketing "trick"?

From the article: So what does this mean for Yesod? A lot, actually. FP Complete will be bringing Haskell to commercial users, and Yesod will be a big part of that. FP Complete is very supportive of the entire open source Haskell community,

I feel like I've mostly heard about people talking about W40k being influenced by (or "ripping off") Starcraft and not the reverse.

http://hyperpolyglot.org/ provides comparisons between various "families" of languages - not just the above. But there isn't a comparison between, say, Ruby and Haskell.

Except that Monads are compositional (and have reasoning properties) that "normal stateful programming" doesn't allow for.

Ah, yes, thanks, that isn't obvious. No need to be snotty about it.

That's a very strong claim. What evidence do you have for it?

Agreed. Depression isn't about happiness versus sadness. Depression is about feeling so overwhelmed by everything in life, about every problem and issue being the same "volume" in your head and being unable to prioritize. This leads to a fe

This doesn't seem to mention Java just JavaFX. Those aren't the same, and it would be nice if this was going to eventually be supported for Java applications.

Do you know if there's a way to skip the current or next match when doing this?

How so? Could you explain in more detail?

And it's not even necessarily a good idea to port large projects - completely ignoring the complexity of doing a port while continuing further development and maintenance on an existing product.
