I think you're missing the idea (but I could be wrong, I've never consulted): You're not supposed to promise when a project will be finished, you just set your rate per days/weeks. You estimate when it will be finished,

Why is hour < day < week? I read the patio article where he said that, but since I've never been a contractor, I don't understand the difference that would make. Also, since an hourly rate is standard and job postings say h

Off topic, I know: This site is driving me nuts because the up/down arrows don't scroll. Anyone else having this issue?

This seems like a story without an ending. A customer did something, she reacted and regretted it. Sure she's saying she should be more empathetic in the future but based off of what? The customer didn't reply after she made th

I'll try that. Wish me luck :)

That's exactly what I'm doing on my latest side project. I'm the type of guy that keeps attempting side projects. I'm passionate at first and then all at once I lose interest and stop. Or I realize I should rewrite an

From this description it sounds like Maybe is similar to checked exceptions in ways I didn't even realize when I wrote my comment. The difference is that Haskell's syntax is pleasant and concise to work with. It would be really a

Can you list those same features that it provides? My understanding of Scala's philosophy is it provides as many features as it can. A Maybe type, immutable state, separation of IO, etc. isn't very useful if my coworker can choo

I don't have much experience with haskell beyond Learn You A Haskell (a book), but I wonder how beneficial the no null pointer errors are in practice. The way haskell handles this reminds me of checked exceptions in Java. In java if y

I went through a phase of this when I started writing automated tests. It occurred when I started using a mocking library for the first time. The library was so advanced I could basically test my implementation instead of my api. EG: &qu

I don't get the context of your comment. Where is he confusing the two?

by tieTYT 13y ago
I don't think it's as important as you might think (but maybe I'm just naive). I've been developing a game in CoffeeScript for over 2 months and I've yet to need a source map. Every time I get a runtime error, the

How can it support cabal? Is that only for other Haste libraries? Most haskell cabal dependencies end up needing a native library (eg: compiled c files) somewhere in their transitive dependencies (this is very unfortunate, btw).

I've have to make a confession: Almost every time I use a pattern it makes my code more complex and harder to understand. I've used visitor, composite, singleton, all sorts of factories, decorator, proxy, state, strategy, etc. Yo

That tutorial link alone was worth me making my comment :) Yeah I feel comfortable trying clojurescript next time. Thanks for the info.

I went into irc's #clojure to ask if I should use clojurescript for developing a html canvas based game. Most of the people in the chatroom dissuaded me. Their main concerns were: 1) there's no source maps. IE: a browser stack

I think I must be missing something obvious here, but how can you do this if you use something with state like a database? How do you create a production system from scratch without losing all the data?

Yeah I tried oDesk before, but I never got a job from that. It's demotivating to be competing with people from foreign countries that are willing to work for $3/hour. I get the sense that the employers on that site are looking f

I've been a salaried employee my whole career. All these patio11 articles are inspiring, but the main thing that intimidates me is I have no idea how to get started. How do you transition from an employee to a consultant?

You told us what it "isn't" but you didn't tell us what it "is". Yes, I could just google, but I don't care enough. I think you missed out on a little bit of marketing here.

It seems to stop working after I use it after a while. Is this a bug or intended?
353.
by tieTYT 13y ago
Yes, and for how good Haskell is as a LANGUAGE, it sucks at this very important feature (assuming you want to use a 3rd party library).
354.
by tieTYT 13y ago
Whoa, thank you sir. I assumed it didn't support it because I couldn't find a Typescript plugin when I searched their repository. I didn't think it would just be built in.

by tieTYT 13y ago
I want this so bad, but I want to type it in my IDE of choice: Intellij IDEA/(or Eclipse, to play the devil's advocate). Is there any legal reason why someone couldn't create a plugin for those Java ides to compile TypeScript

I guess the thing I'm harping on is shawnz saying that javascript is INHERENTLY functional. I think it's possible to write javascript in a functional way: Underscore.js is a perfect example of that. But I wouldn't say

by tieTYT 13y ago
Those ones. But what I meant was that it is idiomatic to use for loops vs recursion.
358.
by tieTYT 13y ago
I disagree with this statement. Arrays are mutable, it's easy to make global mutable state, for the longest time for loops required a mutating index, etc.

As it says on the site, Fogus is "a core contributor to Clojure and ClojureScript". I wonder why he didn't just write a book on ClojureScript instead. Isn't ClojureScript already a way to write functional javascript?

No, I'm saying if avoiding a DRY violation creates more methods/classes it's worth doing.
