I don't think anyone would use that construction though in the midwest if they only meant the men. If they wanted all the guys to get off the dance floor they would say "Now, all the guys are going to step off the dance floor.&quo

I think the big use-case is on Android where you're stuck with Java 7 and therefore can't use lambdas.

Oh come on. I think they just weren't user friendly tools. I doubt they developed them with the intention of being obtuse.

Wonder if that has something to do with size of America relative to most countries in Europe. Americans just simply have to drive more and for longer distances. Driving doesn't seem so fun in the midwest.

I went through an earily similar process for a game I'd been developing on the side. I fell for the trap of building my own engine because I thought it would be a fun challenge. It was, but I ended up spending 90% of the time working o

As both a hacker and a brewer this is extremely interesting. Building a temperature controller fermentation chamber is something I want to do at some point.

> They don’t teach rails at uni. So straight off the bat it eliminates that large segment of people inspired by the dot-com bubble to get IT degrees to earn good bucks. Java and .NET developers are a dime a dozen. Yep, just because you

Here's a nice pdf of all the keyboard shortcuts in Eclipse. I actually have it hung up on the wall next to my computer at work. http://eclipse-tools.sourceforge.net/EclipseEmacsKeybindings...

I first used Git before I really understood source code control and more or less did the same thing. Kept it up until a friend of mine that I was working on the project with figured out that there had been upwards of 200 commits in one day

Submissions like this have no value. Posting this code just to laugh at how ignorant the programmer seems petty to me. Also, this code is so blatantly bad, it almost seems fake.

This struck a chord with me. I tend follow up long days at work with lifting sessions in the gym. Helps me get a grip on the world outside the computer sometimes.

I had a brief experience with using Facebook's API last year. It was absolutely horrible. Documentation in the Wiki of features that no longer existed. Features that would just break with little or no explanation. Maybe it's improved since

Thanks, I started going through them and then gave up. There should be laws against article layouts like this.

Wouldn't say it sucks, but it comes with the territory when working for a big multi-national organization.

SSH tunnels are a quick way to get fired here.

This is a similar problem to what goes on with PC vendors. They install crap-ware and borderline ad-ware on machines they sell to users who then complain that their brand new computer is already going slow after a few months. Even re-instal

If they blocked Hacker News or Reddit at work, I would be one unhappy employee.

This is how almost every CS and EE class was for me in college. Sure, I could have cheated on all the homework, but if I didn't understand the material, I was going to flunk the final exam. I think cheating is a bigger problem for classes w

The link was not to /r/programming it was to /r/reddit.com. /r/programming has it's own problems, but these comments are definitely not representative of that subreddit.

Great. They didn't want to actually PAY someone for a good app so they "crowd-source" it and get 19 shitty apps.

True, back in the days of Counter Strike 1.6 it was a terrible, buggy piece of DRM. It's improved by leaps and bounds since then.

I hate this sort of stuff because it's so binary. I consider myself a definite gray area and I think a lot of people are in there as well.
