I associate relatively light pop with Jackson. In fact, it is quite hard to describe without metaphors. Using metaphors, you can usually say that the music just feels as if someone smashes a heavy hammer against your soul and once the music

In fact, I am quite curious if there is a certain connection between Kirkhoffs law and opensource software (well, open-idea-software, but giving out ideas is almost as good as giving out source, but giving out source definately is more than

In fact, even at the danger of being annoying, I would rephrase that once again. "USE abstractions when you can see a valid present use". Not listening to your code asking for a common abstraction of several things which already exist just

This is the reason why I am kind of laughed at, and why my comments are kind of feared, because I either don't need comments at all, but once I need comments, they usually end up being a page of things you need to know about this unit.

In fact, one can argue that the one paradigm (or, the one philosophy) to rule them all is known. It is the UNIX way of doing things: have a lot of simple, little programs reading a well-defined input on on an input pipe, producing a well-de

To be honest, this is a fairly interesting toy, especially, if you consider combining this with template methods and method objects for those more complicated, heavy-weight algorithms. (I'd get angry at someone for using something like this

I think, the join-akwardness in python mostly is a single-dispatch issue. Both variants, glue.join(sequence) and sequence.get_joined_by(glue) make some sort of sense, however, neither strikes all readers as the one obvious thing that obvio
