A set doesn't need to be n log n. You can use an unordered set and it will be just n. All you care about is the duplicates being removed, not the order.

Those kind of articles are cancer. They just promote the current hype. That just stops people from getting good at something. It's almost like a conspiracy to destroy developpers (especially webdevs). "Oh you were getting good and productive with (e.g.) Angular? Too bad you gotta learn React now!"

Crystal stands on a nice middle ground between ergonomics and safety. For instance, handling nulls via if expressions is brilliant: # bar might be nil bar # bar's possible nil type was ignored => compile error if bar bar.foo # success because bar cannot be nil here end

It's funny how this can differ so much from company to company. I currently work at the largest Dutch bank which has very actively been migrating stuff away from COBOL. So much even that quite a few COBOL devs were 'asked' to either learn (for example) Java or go into early retirement. I really don't understand why so ...

How did I shift the conversation? I started out saying Apache was easier to configure than nginx, and have continued to say and defend the fact that Apache is easier to configure than nginx this whole time. Not once have I jumped off that point this whole time. Unless I'm missing something.

the build systems are better at obscuring their tasks than to build. at this point, a straight script in root that does all tasks in pseudo code would be better than any of the available build systems. until that changes, hopefully we will not have an unified and standardized build system.

Having to reinstall Java every time is completely irrelevant to the fact that *99.99% of the code running when you're running the app* is *not* the code written by the application-developer. Or most of the code is "below the water" to use the original analogy. We're standing on the shoulder of giants. It's a good thin...

The COBOL devs who make that much aren't paid that much because of COBOL.

Agree with (2). For (1): Although I'm personally irrationally fond of C++ (helped teach it to undergrads for a few years), it is, quite frankly, an awful language.

Python is by no means competitive with Java and C# when it comes to enterprise software development. It doesn't offer static typing, proper multithreading, and it's *really* slow (like, we-can't-ignore-that slow). Also, most of Qt's documentation is for C++, which makes using it with Python rather inconvenient. Heck,...

That's branchless. You can move flags to ALU registers, for example x86 instruction SETNE sets 8 bit memory location or register to 0 or 1 depending on the zero flag. This is branchless operation but comes at a cost of modifying sub-register so it's not trivial but good enough. It's also possible to scale the result ea...

You lost me there. How do you expect to manage the box without shell access? A management UI could handle more common tasks, but real maintenance will happen. Or did you mean "never ssh into a *live* production box"?

Here, here. The obsession with reinventing the wheel of basic UI again and again and again is pure madness. Most apps have no need for and do not benefit from a bespoke UI theme and would be better served by mindful usage of native widgets with tasteful custom accents scattered about.

Hm. The electron app I'm currently developing uses a whopping 0% of CPU, and 10MB RAM. Granted, it's just not very complex, and not done yet, but still... The Java application it will hopefully replace comes in at ~90MB. (Zilch CPU, though...) Still, thanks for the heads up, I'll keep this in mind.
