It depends on the instrument. 128 positions is well enough for piano. From other instruments, drums is the one I know best, and there single parameter is just not enough: the result depends on velocity, the position where the stick hits dru

> Main reason why an if statement returns a value is because it is used to test if condition is true or false. Uh, no. The condition itself is true or false. The return value is useful for assigning, passing as parameter, etc. Non-return

What's the difference between ternary operator and inline if/else? Is there even any reason for if/else that doesn't return a value (that may be void/unit/similar)? It is also obvious that Java version of the v

That developer must be misinformed. I have been developing a native component that needs to interface with C++ APIs from the app and Objective C APIs from iOS. The only thing you need to remember is to not mix exceptions from C++ and Object

Do you get results for goland? I don't have experience with it in particular, but to me it seems Google considers CLion, Rider and IDEA interchangeable.

The "easy" notation for play along is pure horror. If this is expected to be helpful in practicing reading music, it should at least use standard notation.

Windows 2000 SP3 was felt really nice compared to constant crashing with 95/98 and XP's ugly UI and again increased crashes. But if you try 2000 now, it's clumsy and it was only SP3 that was finally stable. XP could be easily

Enterprise is also the inspiration behind Dilbert. I agree that Windows is nowhere as bad as it was in the 90s and early 2000s and OS X isn't as good as it was in 2014, but software development on Windows is still slightly painful.

Ah, of course. My personal experience from several employers has been that people who believe that they can judge programmer skills by listening to their bullshit end up hiring bullshit artists. I have also worked with programmers who could

Just out of curiosity, what do you think is a sensible hiring process for people expected to know how program, and why does it work?

It is easier to develop high quality app for iOS than Android. With iOS, there are only relatively few different devices, they behave almost the same and most of the users are running up to date OS. On the other hand, there are too many And

The desktop app and Movescount are supposed to be shut down at some point, but now it seems they are extending the deadline indefinitely.

Polar is another brand that has their own watch software. They tried Android in one model, but they too had problems with battery life. Unfortunately Suunto is moving to the app only direction too with the numbered sport watch series. Ambit

In my opinion this is much, much better than trying to decipher what the heck that one co-worker pushed to production and how exactly it broke things. Of course there are ways to smuggle rubbish through code review, but it's still bett

Planes are also moving at roughly 10x driving speeds and air resistance is roughly relative to second power of speed. And they climb to 10 km for the trip. At this kind of numbers gut feeling is guaranteed to go wrong.

The things that become trash are usually pre-sorted. It's not that difficult to not throw them in the same bin. If we get started about national stereotypes, maybe it's too difficult for Americans.

Not auto-reverting fixes to obviously wrong content would be a good start. I had a similar experience with fixing a page where someone had confused kilograms and pounds.

Is this a cultural thing? In Finnish 5" 1/4 used to be known as "lerppu" (floppy) and 3.5" as "korppu" (twice baked bread) but I've never heard that English would have specific words for these.

Funny, the first message I got on actual OkCupid was from their recruiting. My profile did have one passing mention about programming, maybe it was that or maybe some values / attitude / some other thing they caught.

The problem with Netflix, at least in Europe, is that good films are removed and garbage stays.

My experience from TAing is that teaching forces you to go through the material very thoroughly yourself, much more than just studying for yourself. Also, when you go through the material for second time, knowing everything you have learned

I live in Finland (which is in EU) and Amazon (or their European sellers) is the only major web store inside EU that does not ship most of the products here. German Amazon even regularly pushes ads for products that can not be shipped here.
