NeXTStep was cross architecture I ran and compiled Objective-C code on HPPA, i386 and 68000 machines. I suspect I built for SPARC as well

by pasc1878 4y ago
And NeXTStep OpenSTEP's predecessor had already implemented it.

Source code control was a known thing. I had been using PVCS for 6 years by then - and when on Unix RCS. I got annoyed in the 80s with people who had messed the code base up so we could not compile from a fresh checkout. Yes communication b

How do you implement this. When a company dies you can't access its servewrs etc. Which is why in the contract you have with the software company you include having them put the code in escrow with a third party. The third party is nec

You need to look at the history of Microsoft's version of Java to see why that did not happen.

Because it is a standard Apple API so less work to do.

You missed the reason that payment processers set these terms. It is not because they want to. It is because there is a minority who think sex is dirty and only should be done in the family and they will take anyone who is even slightly hel

That is normal - you have to add to the interview a requirement that you interview and have to approve each person assigned to work for you. It is amazing how many managers I have worked for who don't do that.

But you gain the ability to use tools that understand the language or the underlying AST, they look at the structure rather than a context free view of text. You add the tools to the IDE. As for database corruption - that is a well known is

You can use this view of java code in Eclipse as well. But VAJ was still better.

I looked at a graph algorithm Bellman-Ford under C++ Why is Graph->edge a pointer not a std::vector Why does the Graph constructor not use member initializer lists but assignemnt in the constructor body. So confidence in the quality of

The tabs are to the side rather than along the top. This allows you to see the text in the tab when you have several tabs open. Ideally tabs should be indented so you can see which tab you linked the page from. The best implementation is th

The operative word here is can. Does Firefox use the keychain - on macOS it does not even try

I think Interchange was not originally Java but a NeXTStep application. I am also ex UBS. I don't remember it being slow though.= but then again I might not have used the Java version just NeXTStep and the mIRC hack.

Depends where you read. Also how do you read the news of 50 or 100 years ago - isn't that more difficult. I use UK news sites. BBC Guardian and Telegraph all have their old articles online

Why would the US cut off things here. They have nothing to gain for suppressing this dissent.

And this is what NeXTStep/macOS has done for 30 years. Well you could also ship common Frameworks but they all have a version number so should not cause a problem if different apps need different versions of a library. The AppStore or

IANAL but I think it is not copyright that is here but Trademark. Copyright would be copying the game but even then I think you can use the same rules but not the same visual look.

by pasc1878 4y ago
With trademarks it is up to the Trademark owner to take action not Apple so not a valid comparison. I suspect Apple would act on a complaint from the owner here

Well that was just a nice GUI on top of IRC, and probably some work on the server.

The promlem with using apple password management on macos is that I need vertical tabs. Only vivaldi and Firefox provide them now and they don't use the macos key chain

Yes if it is useful copy it to a wiki etc. But how do you get the information first. You have to look at the chat transcript - and in an international company and a problem requiring thought or research the information could be spread over
835.
by pasc1878 4y ago
This is internal to a company - everyone able to access the chat better have and account and use it - you need to be sure who said what. And setting up search on the chat is not difficult, we had search on chat 25 years ago.

by pasc1878 4y ago
You don't have just one company wide chat channel - when I used chats and came to the same conclusion as the article. It was a large company and we had hundreds of group chats. So the C++ Embedded developers and Ruby would be have sepa

That is a limitation of text based tools. There have been code source control tools based on the AST see Envy for Smalltalk. Hopefully eventually we will dump the limitations of text based tools and use one based on the structure of program

SQL does not fully implement Relational Algebra or Calculus, which are isomorphic. See Many of Chris Dates' books and things like Tutorial D which do meet the ALgebra. SQL is near enough the theory to work and also has had so much effo

I am confused here. Referential integrity can only be implemnented in the database. If you try in the application there are race conditions that will break it. RI is a major reason to use a RMDBS (Look it is a Referential Database System)

by pasc1878 4y ago
That is what I find with much Unix and emacs documentation. It is for people who already know the tools, there aren't the hooks whilst you are learning. The documentation I found much better was MS in the 1990s where you git an overvie
