Powershell has a common language, common help system, common logging framework. It's a very nicely done project. You can Get-Help Update-ItemProperty -Example to get some samples. It is introspectable, so command line completi

I wouldn't say the Chinese have a particularly penchant for being obedient any more any any one else. The countries which are winning against COVID are those who don't give loudspeakers to stupid people. Just saying.

I was trying to think of parallels with the programming world, and perhaps this analogy might make sense to some people. Sometimes, the software we maintain accumulates so much tech debt that it becomes very difficult to make any headway. B

nice! I haven't seen this expressed in functional programming, but it feels more natural in ML. Is it possible to nest these computations?

If you asked the mystics, they would probably say none whatsoever. Why spend your whole life learning how to walk on water if you can pay the boatsmen for a ride? If it is all that you want.

I'm sorry to read this. I hope you have at this point enough insight to recognize that logically you are more capable that how you feel about yourself. Therefore, it is a matter of making sense of that feeling of anxiety that you shoul

Implementations of layout in source code tend to suffer hard-to-diff from a source control point of view. Everytime you move an existing component into a wrapper, the identation breaks how the diff shows up. Perhaps we need a XML formatter

The design tension is this: current welfare recipients get a range of help from the government, each administered separately. In addition, because it cuts out for every dollar earned it creates a very high marginal tax rate, creating a loca

Powershell is a shell language, everything is dynamic, and does not error when you access a non-existent property on an object.
