Primitive types such as string/number/... are really not a great example when it comes to showcasing the benefits of static typing. I don't know why it's so common. A better example would be something like /&#

How is the situation with integrated debugging support? That's one of the most important features of any IDE, yet not mentioned in the table.

If you team up two humans, they need to be very well coordinated to work together effectively, otherwise they'll just get in each other's way. Starcraft 2 has a mode like this called Archon Mode, where two players control the same

It does smack a bit of "my problems are more important than yours" attitude. The same kind of judgmental tone can be seen in other parts too: >I am the single mother who closed two deals with a fever during winter “break” whil

Pretty sure the cli thing slows it down rather than speeding it up.

By default the gcc packages in the mingw-w64-... groups don't link against that library. You can explicitly include it if you need the POSIX compatibility parts missing from Windows, but most software doesn't.

Great thing about Qt Creator is that it can use clang for parsing the code, so the completions and highlighted errors tend to be very accurate.

Yes, it was a Windows machine. I did all the "make it faster" steps, like running the recommended script that adjusts Windows Defender and search indexing configuration, but in the end it was still very slow, even on a fairly fast

Last time I had to use ember (about 2 months ago), the ember-cli tool had major performance issues. I remember rebuilds after a single line of code was changed taking almost 10 seconds. It also generated almost 10 gigabytes of temporary f

That only shows the summary though, not the documentation for the function parameters and other parts of the doc comment.

Last time I used VS, I was surprised by the lack of some pretty basic features, such as Ctrl+click navigation (there is a plugin for that though), or a quick way to show formatted function documentation in a popup.

CLion isn't all that great. It still has major issues analyzing a lot of C++ code (false positive red squiggly lines everywhere), almost 1.5 years after the initial annoncement. Although C# should be a much easier language to deal with

HeidiSQL is pretty good feature-wise, though I think it still can't connect to a server via a SSH tunnel if also using an encrypted MySQL connection (the SSL checkboxes are greyed out). Another issue is that while it's open source

Question is, how many real-world cases there are where duck typing is super beneficial. Usually if you need a bunch of differently-typed objects to fulfill the same contract, you can just make them implement an interface (said interface can

> You can have statically compiled languages that use type inference to realize what is effectively dynamic typing. Just because you don't have to explicitly write out the type does not make it any less static. I believe that the u

I agree that type hints are basically just "machine-readable documentation" (and human-readable as well!). I still think that machine-readable documentation can be immensely useful when combined with a static code analysis tool. N

If a library comes annotated with types, then an error in the typehints is just as much of a bug as an error in code or documentation. Having most of the standard library plus large portions of the ecosystem come with these hints will be hu

From the IDE point of view, there are other benefits besides correctness. Proper autocomplete for objects (huge whenever you have a chain of method calls), ctrl+click to go to a method, showing a method's documentation in a popup, find

I agree. Dynamic languages had their appeal when the only mainstream alternatives were Java and C++. But in today's world, with verbosity-eliminating type inference, more expressive type systems, and tools that can make use of all the

Can definitely confirm issues with touchpad drivers. Lack of basic features such as ignoring a thumb that's resting on one of the buttons (which works in Windows) makes using Linux on a laptop a very unpleasant experience.

When a link is opened in a new tab, that tab should keep the history of the tab it was opened from. There used to be a Firefox extension for that, but that now doesn't work anymore because of changes in Firefox. Chrome closed a feature

I mostly just have a problem with the default behavior of ignoring errors and continuing (yes I know it can be overridden). This coupled with the fact that you'll be working almost exclusively with strings, and all the quoting and esca
