Yeah sorry I have an issue with mass paranoia. Also you banned me before years ago TBH. I deserved it but tried to be decent since then. Sorry

I'll say this from my experience as a coding kid. If you find your kids have programming interest don't treat them like children when they come to you for help. I taught myself several languages when I was ~11 but my parents alway

In modern times we have the X37 hanging out in space for a couple years at a time doing God knows what. My completely unsubstainted guess is that it can change orbital parameters by skipping off the atmosphere like a rock. It seems to move

Using GitHub as a versioned file storage. I know it's not the best option, not even good, but it's usually so easy if your files are less than 100mb. If they're bigger, you can abuse their "release" logic to upload

This neglects the failure modes of nuclear power. The biggest danger, by far, is overheating, fire, and melting. Paradoxically, a nuclear plant could be made extremely safe if it just dumped all the fuel into the ocean at the first sign of

How is this any different than filling a parking garage with trailers? There's just so much impractical about this. Any kind of open air "stack" would fail fire code horrifically if nothing else. Accessibility... Each floor n

I've been taking finasteride for nearly a decade. No side effects for me and costs $40 a year. Haven't lost an inch of hairline since I started. My hairline is frozen at mild temple recession that looks "age appropriate"

Very true. Newer languages seem to be moving back towards native binaries. The promised advantages of JIT compilation have faded with improvements to compilers and profile driven optimization. Go and Rust are interesting to follow. A highis

Haha yeah it might be a PITA. Unless your app is huge it shouldn't take more than a couple days though. Basically a compile run fix reflection loop until you stop getting errors :'(

IMO LINQ is still better because of how integrated into the language it is. JOOQ and QueryDSL were basically designed to replicate it as much as possible but not nearly to convenience levels of LINQ + Entity Framework

Yes. But it's done in a different way than C#. C# supports fields and field references so you can pass them directly to a function. The Java code "looks" like they do the same because they generate code to simulate method ref

It's not built in to the language, but JOOQ and QueryDSL come fairly close. I do miss LINQ though. The Java options are all clunkier because the type system isn't nearly as flexible

This doesn't make jive with disaster being averted by a third pilot. Assuming the third was totally dedicated to checklist vs preventing the plane from diving, it was only his insight that stopped the plane from going down. The MCAS sy

Yes perhaps that's true. I ask you to consider some c++ to java conversions though. Usually the syntax is almost identical, whereas COBOL is clearly terrible
