Could a word/character limit also be considered? I have seen people who write bloated almost-autobiographies wherever an online profile allows them to.

recursion became second nature to me after a lot of hand coded parsing. "crafting interpreters" has really been a rewarding educational trip! "writing a interpreter/compiler in go" is also excellent complementary ma

A few reasons: legacy code in research (often headed by older staff), Matlab's speed out of the box, use in industry (Toyota), and toolboxes developed by Mathworks itself. For those who don't want to resort to piracy when doing &q

it need not be related to your job. some employer might ask that since you're skilled enough to do such thing, then you should have been performing extraordinarily on the job, even if you are already delivering what the job asks for, a

As someone who have designed lenses (with Zemax et al), this means I can get by with fewer lens elements, making it less expensive. That's one aberration type I can stop worrying about.

this would be good material for a book, where in the end, the reader gets to output "hello world".

it would be cool (ambitious) if at some point there is also a programming language/compiler down the line. perhaps it can would also be able to run tetris or even another nandgame.

I've read/heard others express their concern about how the XP code leak might be a problem for ReactOS. I hope they are taking appropriate measures.

Oh yeah, taking this for granted with C# all the time! This what made C# my go-to prototyping language. Circular dependencies might be "bad", but it takes more planning to avoid them when coding from scratch. C++ is also bit of a

I always find it interesting how Danes are great at making programming languages. Anders perhaps being the most prolific among them.

This is also what I am thinking. Even if I am a fan of Delphi/Lazarus for what they deliver, native GUI programs that generally have no dependencies, I think some parts of the Pascal language were designed for ease of the compiler and

The things you enjoy at the early stages of academe are not the things you do as you stay longer. Academic promotion exhausts the older/wiser people with teaching/supervising/admin work instead of using their accumulated know

There's a fair middle ground when the dependency in itself doesn't have dependencies, and is small enough with a permissive license such that the entirety of its code can be dropped in to your project. Especially for very specific

Some popular Git GUIs are also lacking in one way or another, or you just get stuck unable to accomplish what you want. And those who reason with me otherwise, had their client (Sourcetree) installed by their administrator. Especially as Gi
