I know this is supposed to show us about cool java 8 features, but what it's actually reminding me is how jarring BigDecimal is without operator overloading.

I'm a professional java dev - groovy definitely does show up on our radar as it's used as the glue for a lot of tools related to our "production" code. For example gradle buildscripts are groovy, as is the spock test fra

It's not crazy. It's pretty horrifyingly logical. Why have one 100Mt nuke, when you can have a hundred 1Mt nukes? http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Multiple_independently_targetab...

Agreed. Presumably there's a shortcut pack to become a contributor. For a small fee.

Please watch "Black Mirror" on channel 4. If you haven't seen it I think you'll probably enjoy it.

Full disclosure, I am not a conservative voter. YMMV But a few things will spring to mind, 1) we tend to vote conservative when the books need balancing, and labour when we feel wealth is not being distributed properly 2) the conservatives

I think what he's saying is that most brits don't have the opportunity to go over there and work, the visas rules appear to be tightening up if anything. That and most of us are unwilling to drop what we have on the off chance tha

Providing they are of equal skill, that's true. The article suggests it's not because of cost, that just leads me to ask why they would do it.

I also took a look at your contributions - looks a bit spotty! https://github.com/mmcru No activity in the last month? Something I personally would pick up on.

by yarper 12y ago
Do you have a good github account? Most (decent) employers will probably take this in lieu of a technical interview. You have to remember that its not just them testing you - it's you testing them. As a newbie coder you want to be in a

No, I see that I mean if you have a cooling system of some kind you should see layers like in hail where more and more water freezes around it?

It's possibly that episode that triggered the submarine thought!

I remember looking at this ages ago (I browse my share of wikipedia) trying to work out why you couldn't use ice as a submarine hull. I mean the deeper you go the more freezes on it and the thicker it gets? inb4 it floats, so does air

Also points for readers; if you use intellij or another good ide it'll package it up for you with a execute script (gradle's application/java plugin also do this) manual classpath supplying is not advised
