Someone posted an article a while back about working to calculus using functions, I think it was titled something like "If Socrates knew functions"? I'm not sure. Does it ring a bell for anyone?
Agree on that one, it's really verbose and ugly. I liked the idea of a cmd that integrates so nicely with .NET but I don't think it worked out this time.
We use powershell a lot at work for developer setup stuff and other common tasks we do on a daily basis and at this point I've considered just writing my own language to do it or find something else.
I think reddit gets kind ofh ard to follow for conversations. It's really good for content aggregation, but I much prefer 4chan (and any other chan etc) for conversations. Though I think in the end thats more to do with the functionality than the UI. You definitely need an extension to use 4chan seriously but the same can be said for reddit.
I've said all this but either is INIFNITELY better than twitter, especially twitter's standard web client. TweetDeck makes the thing barely useable.
I call it out in CRs when I see it and I've been fixing any of these I come across in code at work.
I'd rather a compiler forces me to put braces around everything than let people have the opportunity to do something like the latter from my original comment.
I had a poor experience with them in the UK. The hinge snapped on my ultrabook (I don't remember the exact model as the codes are obscure.) E-mailed support, provided plenty of pictures of the issue. Keep in mind I only owned the thing for 6 months so still in warranty.
Best they would offer is an out of warranty repair.
I know someone with the same model, exact same problem happened to him.
Yeah from what I've seen I've noticed he jumps around a lot putting out fires when he changes anything. Like I said in another reply, he's too far in the camp of C++ being C with classes.
I think the sad thing will be people are learning C/C++ from him and so will try and program anything in these languages like this.
I agree with things like these, I think Casey and other programmers like him are too far in the camp of C++ is just C with classes.
From what I have seen of the code and videos, I think his general structure of programs is off. I'm no advocate of "every function has to be at max N lines" or "every file has to be smaller than N lines". But I think there are issues there, and I don't think it can be defended just because it's a game, where a lot of general practices go out the window.
While these are not new ideas - Why not use s32 rather than i32 and so on. Makes more sense if you use something like u32 too.
I think it's important when making another language to really question everything you do in it. Why use this operator, or why use this mnemonic for built in types?
Since it's based on Google metrics - what are the stats like for countries where Google is not the most popular search engine? E.g China, Russia and Japan.
