While you provided an accurate description of the Indian culture, your comment does not address the issue at hand. The biggest problem according to me lies in the Indian culture; We don't challenge authority enough to pursue our dreams. In

I did something similar, sometime back, where I used the influences from the information boxes on the programming language pages on wikipedia to generate a global lineage graph. I used SVG as the output format though, since it is much more

Type systems are a form of documentation, and they help enable programming tool support, but their role in error detection is greatly overstated. This is a blasphemy towards static typing. Whenever the size of a software system stops bei

In the essence of the message, I like the more elaborate version, more than "Show, don't tell" which I find just a clever play on words.

You are partially right about C#, my experience with it dates back to the 1.0 version, but even with all these enhancements is it worth spending in the effort of learning two similar languages when you could be learning a different paradigm

I think for a language to be disliked it should be in one of the following categories: 1) First category is where you are forced to use it, and it is easy enough to get started in. For these languages the programmer base is big enough for t

You can do a lot of functional programming in a language where values are mutable. Sure you can do whatever you want, but if the language does not support things like tail call optimization, non-imperative function definition, writing cod

This is mind-blowing, I like how he uses transitions to empower content. The transitions themselves are fantastic and like others in the thread I don't find them fancy at all, in fact I think they add movies like continuity to presentations
