I guess that sort of explains why they refuse to take in birds of prey, though it still seems a bit based on ignorance for a Jain hospital to do so since at least the vultures are willing to eat an alternative diet without meat. Not sure if

I found that rationale for turning them away even more perplexing after reading their blog and other articles. These same places state they have no issue treating sparrows and pigeons, both of which are common opportunistic omnivores. Meanw

On Android, Scala gets compiled to dex bytecode just the same as Java. Scala has slightly more overhead though from making lots of small objects, but the tradeoff is worth it if you prefer not using Java. I stick to using Java Collections (

If you don't need the sbt build system for your project, it's pretty simple to get started. Here's my guide (and some code examples) for using just proguard + Intellij. Using sbt isn't difficult to set up either, though

I never heard of anyone in the US using "an herb" and I've lived my entire life there. Also never heard the 'h' not being pronounced. I mostly lived in the East/Midwest, so perhaps the pronunciation differs els

When I was learning C++, it was conveyed that structs were more for combining like data that didn't necessarily require a class because it had a bit less overhead. An example would be a lot of variables that are related, but have no me

Looks like the license states it's unrestricted for individual developer use, which seems reasonable to me.

Still used less than a few months ago. My interviewer was at least pleasant and helpful though. Would be nice if they would just make a plugin for major IDEs/Editors and let people use what they want.

It would by introducing Boolean Math and as an intro into logic + proofs. Aside from that, it's a requirement to take descrete mathematics before going onto Linear Alegbra at most universities.

I could see it being done with annotations + processing them perhaps, as some frameworks do for database properties such as index/uniqueness. An object for every scalar datatype is just overkill, even if it solves a legitimate problem.

Primary advantage (to me at least) over other frameworks and server-side platforms is that it's asyncronous by design versus something tacked on or optional that you decide to use later (which could be problematic if you have a lot of

Code can be literature in specific cases, such as the Shakespeare programming language. It's just a whimsical, esoteric language, like lolcode, but it reads like the Immortal Bard himself was an early adopter of learning to program. Ex

Only Android Book I would get is "The Busy Coder's Guide to Android Development[1]" as it comes with continuous updates. It's also by one of the most knowledgeable app developers in the Android Community. It's worth

Being in the United States, I get the same treatment when I want to watch bbc programs (blocked for not being in the UK). It's understandable, since they're supported by taxpayer money, but it would be nice if there was a way to p
