It's not guaranteed to be unique?

Indeed, thanks!

I use it especially for enums so it's like: MatchMap.of(someOptional, defaultValue) .whenEquals(MyEnum.VALUEX, v -> someFn(p1, p2)) .whenEquals(MyEnum.VALUEY, v -> otherFn(p1, p2)) .resolve();

Funny, I happened to code something just today very similar, but a lot lighter (just two classes, Match for consuming only, and MatchMap for mapping the optional. No when/get, just a when taking two parameters : the predicate and the m

It's interesting, but I find peculiar the choice of the words which are overspaced. I would expect works like 'that', 'from', 'with' far more important for chunking than 'to' for instance.

Hiring someone is taking power over someone else's life. When you become a boss, you become the main source of income for someone. He/she becomes your subordinate. And you will make a part of your profit from his/her work. Th

35 hours, in France, is just the legal threshold over which hours are counted as extra (and thus are paid more). No one in France is forced to work 35 hours "only". Besides, we are talking about employees, which means a hierarchic

How does your bank create free money when you make a loan ? The argument "where does the extra money comes from?" is looking at it the wrong way. The right question is: does it stimulate the economy? Currently, people do not spend

I think you are mistaken on the positions of the PCF. Please read the political program for the 2012 elections "L'Humain d'abord" and tell me where it favors "totally state-governed economy" or is "against

The coalition still exists, but the French communist party (PCF) is generally not considered extreme left either, at least in France. They have had ministers in governments in the last decades. They have been financed by the USSR in its tim

Of course not. Alexis Corbière (from the same party than Mélenchon) is actually the one who got this analysis of the trailer first. It may have been a mistake from his, but he surely didn't do it for the money. He has already co-writte

by subtenante 12y ago
This is false. Mélenchon does not wish media to talk about him (his private life is almost completely unknown, people know he has a daughter, but not much else) . He wants the media to talk about his ideas, and he takes any occasion he has

by subtenante 12y ago
Well, no, Mélenchon is not a moron, but one the the greatest intellectuals France has at the moment. He is one of the few French politicians to actually develop new ideas, instead of supporting the liberal dogmas which are ruining Europe. A

by subtenante 12y ago
Those two things are not exclusive (you can have both, any of them, or none). A republic means the laws are applicable to all citizens ; it defines a juridic order. A democracy means that the sovereignty is in the people ; it defines a way

By measurable, I mean objectively. Mattering "as much as a vote can possibly matter" is not objective. Because in that case, all the ones who did not express their vote also had a decisive (non-)vote. Their (non-)vote made the s

> Your vote may not matter, but the act of voting does matter. I don't even believe so. Consider someone who has no family nor friends, and lives isolated 50 miles from the nearest village with a voting urn. Her vote has no social

I find unhealthy this obsession with "making a difference", more precisely the way it is often interpreted as it is in this article. Voting is the essence of democracy. If you believe in democracy, you know your vote makes a diffe

How to think backwards about nature and science. Jellyfish do not "use" formal mathematical models. They do stuff. Our mathematical models may be good approximations of what they do.

Indeed, you're right. It still feels quite strange to me to use the fact that a function (used as behaviour and not data) is, from the language features, technically a variable to call that kind of construct a closure. But thanks for t

But if they're really closures, how can we explain such behaviour?: http://jsfiddle.net/9uqZg/

by subtenante 13y ago
It's not very proper to call these closures, is it? Their purpose is not to close around external variables available in the lexical scope. And I'm ready to upvote the first blog post entitled "the 'considered harmful&#x

Hi HN. I worked on this project last year and have stopped for 6 months now. I'd like some input from the community to know if the project is interesting to others than me. I was in the process of rewriting the rendering part to make it clo

I highly doubt that, given the choice between a sandwich and a lottery ticket, a starving person would choose the ticket. Death from starvation in societies where lotteries exist for the masses is quite low. For example in France where I li

This is all bad probabilities if you don't take into account the fact that you repeatedly buy tickets. I'd like to see a more detailed study counting the probability of never winning when playing systematically for 20 years, for example. Bu
