Perhaps that is true. We've not been on vacation since the trip that brought them home with us. We're not going to stay in anymore small town hotels anymore. The funny thing is Ed Sheeran was at the same place a few weeks after ou

These are some good tips but I've not hit these performance issues. I work on smaller scale applications. One has been in production since 2012 the database performs very well. I guess I need to get out and work for bigger companies to

We're also freezing our pillows and woolens that can't be hot washed.

Apartments must be horrible for this. Unless everyone treats for them they'll keep coming back.

It's a long game. We're in the middle of it. Daily vacuuming, steam treatments, diatomaceous earth spray, and commercial exterminators have all been used. I think we're starting to see progress.

I like Mark's content but it's not going to appeal to everyone. I'm glad we live in a time when we have so many options for entertainment and can so easily pick and choose.

100%. It even helps me reflect on my past managers to see what they were not great at. So I don't pick up those same habits.

That doesn't cover this particular third party API.

That's actually a good point. It seems to work well in that context. I'm not sure I have an entirely rational reason for liking it in one context and not the other.

Generics are awesome. They allow you to do partial typing. You don't specify the exact type but you constrain the output type based on the input type. So you have functions that can operate on many types but still have strong typing. W

That particular API would have been much better had it been documented.

by xupybd 4y ago
Yes but if you want to know an arrays length you can just put it in a scalar. So you consume some API and want to get the length of the result. You put the array result into a scalar variable. Then what this is not the length?

It's not so bad when you know what is going on but when you first hit something like that it's hard to figure out what is going on. Basically violating the Principle of least astonishment https://en.wikipedia.org/w

It is not installed by default on any of the systems I work with. We have around 10 office staff that all use windows, and 2 windows servers. No Perl by default on any of them. To the best of my knowledge you must install one of two main di

I'm also shock that in Perl you can alter your return type based on the type of variable the caller is putting your result in. https://perlmaven.com/wantarray That always appeared as madness to me. Why would you make t

While I don't agree with the author's opinion on Perl I'm in awe of their design. I love the look of their personal site. Perl is only ubiquitous in the Linux/Unix world. Try running it on Windows. You have to install so

I agree expressing an opinion is not rude. However, the tone you've used to express your opinion is incredibly impolite.

Are you sure the big tech way is the best for your start up? Different sized businesses have very different needs.

That is an inspiring reply. Thanks for that it makes me really want to read it now.

Wow you really took a good swipe. I'm not sure what triggered that. It's the time cost I'm worried about. There is significant opportunity cost in reading a big text book. Especially with a young family on top.

Yeah but the comparison for us was with 5400 rpm spin disks. I made the assumption that SSDs would always read faster.

Thanks that's a great idea. I'm more worried about the time investment than the cost of the book. But giving it a go is probably the best way to find out.

I recently priced up new drives for a server at work. SSDs made more sense. Mirroring is essential for us as data loss is a big problem. The price difference was not that great so it was hard to justify buying slower spinning disks. We were
