The regular expression for checking of the existence of unwrap is: `\bunwrap\b` maybe `\.\s*unwrap\s*\(\s*\)` It might give false positives, but likely not many. No false negatives. What would be the regular expression to find missing error checks in Go?

It isn't that IEEE floating points are imprecise (they're actually very precise), it's that they store fractions in base 2. People need to understand the implications of this. Try representing the fraction 1/3 in a finite number of decimal places in base 10. You'll get something like 0.33333. Now try representing 2/3 the same way. You'll get something like 0.66667. However, notice that 0.33333 + 0.33333 != 0.66667. This is the same reason that 0.1 + 0.2 != 0.3 in floats: because the fractions 1/10, 2/10, and 3/10 don't have finite representations in base 2. 1/10 = (base 2) .000110011001100... 2/10 = (base 2) .001100110011001... 3/10 = (base 2) .010011001100110... If you want to store 0.5, 0.6875, or 0.65889247382923998852533031822531484067440032958984375 in a double-precision IEEE float, it will be stored *exactly* with no rounding whatsoever. But all fractions of 10 other than 0/10 and 5/10 are infinite repeating sequences in base 2 and have to be rounded somewhere.

Good luck reorganizing your table to layout differently depending on whether you're in a mobile form factor or a desktop form factor. With tables, the markup defines the layout. With CSS Flexbox (and to a much greater extent CSS Grid), the style defines the layout; and the stylesheet can be swapped out based on media queries.

Wow, lot of downvotes. Yea, hilarious part...you guys have no idea what is going on around you. Nope. Not a conspiracy. ​ Remember Snowden? I could never figure out why he actually did it...because echelon was on the fucking front page of the NSA website at the time. They were already telling us they were recording every electronic transaction, be it communication, banking etc, worldwide. ​ You guys are fucking dweebs that are going to be jobless in the next decade. Remember me, I won't remember you.

Trends are just that: trends. Trendsetters often, but not always, understand the substance to the movement. But many adherents are just aping the style. With no fundamental understanding of how or why it works, these blind copyists often produce terrible results. If the bad result is subtle, they propagate it in the form of advice. If the failure is spectacular, they blame the thing they copied for leading them astray, possibly resulting in a backlash. Microservices somehow became the go-to solution for horizontal scalability, but it was always about being able to scale to more developers with cost-effective scaling being a potential tertiary benefit. In the absence of understanding the true promise of microservices, people have set out building distributed monoliths or even classical SOA garbage and then wondering what went wrong. The new trend around monoliths is more of a reaction to the misunderstanding. Nobody who knows these patterns well ever claimed your three person startup should compose your simple app out of 20 microservices, no matter how well-designed they are. It’s needless inefficiency in development and, chances are, more expensive to horizontally scale at your size. Both patterns are valid, but they work best under different conditions with only a relatively small gray area where both are acceptable. If you’re in that gray area and having problems, there’s a chance your problem is how you implemented the pattern, not the pattern itself, and switching architectural styles won’t do much for you.

Now is actually a great time for new number formats because of AI. Half precision is popular. Google are experimenting with bfloat16 (the first 16 bits of float32), Intel briefly promoted block floating point before changing direction (again). *Lots* of people are experimenting with really small floating point formats. Probably for CPU work you are right though. There's no real need to move away from IEEE-754.

Now I understand you. What you are talking about isn't a property bag at all, but a value object. Value objects have behaviours and should be modeled as full domain objects, meaning the methods should have business meaning. In that case, the equals and "getters" are business methods and should be written out explicitly.

USS Enterprise, is a decommissioned United States Navy aircraft carrier. She was the world's first nuclear-powered aircraft carrier and the eighth United States naval vessel to bear the name. Like her predecessor of World War II fame, she is nicknamed "Big E". At 1,123 ft (342 m), she is the world's longest naval vessel ever built. The only ship of her class, Enterprise was, at the time of inactivation, the third-oldest commissioned vessel in the United States Navy after the wooden-hulled USS Constitution and USS Pueblo. She was originally scheduled for decommissioning in 2014 or 2015, depending on the life of her reactors and completion of her replacement, USS Gerald R. Ford, but the National Defense Authorization Act for Fiscal Year 2010 slated the ship's retirement for 2013, when she would have served for 51 consecutive years, longer than any other U.S. aircraft carrier.

I've tried to use it to edit a file with long lines (2000 characters, a few MB of JSON) and sadly it did not perform well. To be fair I nearly gave up editing that file. Virtually every editor I tried couldn't handle it. I think Sublime Text was the best but even that slowed down a fair bit. Please if you are writing a text editor do not assume lines are short!

You don't need a paper to understand how estimates are guesswork. The number of uncontrollable variables in even a small software project is off the hook. Staff/family illness, hardware problems, network problems, information gathering delays, scope creep, bugs found during development/QA/beta testing, staff getting pulled off to work on business critical issues ... all those are cause for delay and that's just off the top of my head. An estimate is a fancy word for wild assed guess.

Yea, see, there is a single flaw with your analysis...not all that glimmers is gold, but all that is gold surely does. Mozart, Handel, Dickens, Nietzsche, Tesla...many artists do their best work like this. How can you tell the difference between a genius and a madman? By the results, clearly. What are my results...haha...yea, I can see how I would seem completely absurd...but then, how else would someone like me act? Enlightenment? To levels beyond your imagination. Sure, the 'feeling' of enlightenment can be felt by anyone...feelings are chemicals...I am talking about true enlightenment. Granted, I am still a somewhat new traveler on the road I am now...couple years, at most...but the last few months have been...well, I guess we will see how correct I am when I launch my next product in Feb.

Would you rather modify your server-side code to put out slightly different markup for different browsers and different form factors -- (by what, user agent sniffing? It's not like the server is in the best place to be making decisions based on the client's form factor); or would you rather just have a different stylesheet for each and let the browser determine which it needs through declarative rules? Do you want your designers to work more independently or do you want to have to involve developer resources every time they want to change the font size on your pages? Styles being in stylesheets and not embedded in the markup is unambiguously better than the markup being intimately tied to the layout; and any time spent at all working on a non-trivial website makes that abundantly clear.

Often times not only code itself changes but also dependencies so we'd have to do the same thing there. Ultimately it comes down to not enough time given to us by management. Because they don't understand upgrading libraries in the first place so it's really tough to get them to agree to it. We have to promise big performance and productivity gains to justify the time it takes. This leads to upgrades being done rarely. Usually we're 1-2 years behind the current version on github/npm. This year we got them to agree to upgrading lodash in all our products. Our version of lodash was so old that code you found on stackoverflow wouldn't work with our version. It also meant that it was such a big upgrade that there very many breaking changes. In this case lots of function signatures didn't change, but internally they expected different parameters. So there wouldn't be any errors thrown but results would just silently be wrong. They gave me a week to upgrade lodash in all of our products. That was barely enough time to fly through the ~2 years of change log. Doing an actual code diff would've been impossible in that time frame

Yeah I definitely agree. The only awkward thing is it doesn't support ctrl-shift-z for redo. Apparently that is because terminals do not distinguish that from ctrl-z because terminals are from the 70s and there's an annoying mass of geeks that think it is cool too never modernise anything related to Unix (c.f. Wayland, SystemD, etc.).

Not summing anything (I'm assuming that isn't what you're talking about anyways) but I have used something like list_res = [process_or_compare(pair) for pair in zip(before, after)] for doing stuff like easily comparing before and after results. Usually it's a pretty quick and dirty implementation but it has made it into prod a few times for me.

You could extend this to code kept in bit bucket as well. I'd go as far to say, any company using an Atlassian product could be compromised. Mind you this extends further than just 100%aussie based companies. They could just as easily issue notices to local arms or personnel of companies such as Microsoft, Oracle, Google, etc. And they'd have the same problems as Atlassian, they wouldn't be able to disclose the notice, nor ignore it.

Sort of contradictory to your previous complaint about requirements changing all of the time. Maybe you should start considering it a part of your discipline rather than someone else's job. I'm not sure what is confusing about this? Understanding the end user is the job of the product management. Yes, at a startup the developer and product manager might be the same person, but those are still two separate roles. Have you worked in an actual organization before? I agree that product management should be heavily involved in the entire process, and I also believe that product management should be in very frequent contact with end-users. It's still a separate job from writing code. >And, you are still sticking with, the problem is not with the planners?? What I'm saying is that I've yet to see a organization where the "planners" are as omniscient as you think they should be. I believe in accepting the imperfection of humanity and designing processes that are resilient to this reality. Again, maybe in a very small company you can get away with perfection, but that can't be scaled to a large organization. (At least not generally. Maybe at Google, I haven't worked there.) >My guess is the people who know how to plan never really get a chance because planners are generally soft spoken. I had to personally develop a pretty sharp edge to get anything done...now I am probably too sharp...good thing it is my show because, I'd probably get fired otherwise. > >Every person has skills, skills that other people simply do not have and will never have. Put the right person in the right spot and things will work smoothly. Put people in spots based upon seniority, social skills, \[insert variety of issues unrelated to the task at hand\], and you will have a crap shoot that will likely only get pulled across the finish line due to a super hard worker that no one realizes is a fucking genius...knew a guy like that...that company is going to crash the day he quits... I don't disagree with much here, but again "put the right people in the decision making positions" is not an easy strategy to scale. "For business logic, prefer decoupled over re-usable" is a non-obvious strategy that one can reasonably execute.

> Atlassian could be forced to put some code into their product that enables it to call home, or do some other dirty stuff on the network. Scenario: * european company X installs confluence on premise * au forces dev to include backdoor * X upgrades to affected version * X detects the use of their backdoor on their firewall * X involves their government and they sue atlassian for big $$$ If the fine relates to the GDPR it may be based on atlassians sales volume. This basically means that if the scenario above is valid, atlassian may be forced to stop delivering their software to eu countries as risk mitigation as soon as they know that they built in a backdoor. Because of this, they may be forced to introduce better code reviews to detect if one developer was forced to introduce such a feature. > Their government would protect them, They sold to europe and as such they are obliged to honor european laws. How can au's government protect a company from fines? --- Or is the real problem here a different scenario? What if: * nobody detects the backdoor. * would they be able to deliver this upgrade to a specific installation? (if yes, detection will be far harder)

Almost never. In 20(ish) years of part time, full time, hobby, and professional coding, I can think of one or two times GOTO was the best or only choice. And if I were to look at that code again today, I might be able to figure out a way that didn't use it.

I don't entirely understand why a neural network is necessary here - my understanding is that the neural network is encoding the "rules" of the travelling salesman problem (including the edges and weights in the graph), and the amoeba is the one exploring that search space created by these rules. So the neural network isn't doing any of the 'deciding', it's just placing the appropriate constraints on the amoeba for it to generate valid solutions.

The landscape hasn't really shifted away from microservices. However, many shops implementing microservices have figured out four years later, after having to maintain their services, that they are not a panacea for bad design. They just trade modularity issues in monoliths for data consistency problems in tangled webs of services. In other words, the real common thread is just "good design". The trends are more indicators of the kinds of things people are building. Who would've thought?

Nope, I think the old way is wrong. The client needs to be there for client stuff. Not for the behind the scenes server coding and adding 'invisible' features such as security protocols, preprocessing etc. But, certainly for anything design related and anything they seem particularly interested in. And, I then set up regular demos, depending on the size and scope of the project, to ensure that the client and I are on the same page...because, I'm not going to go through hoops because the client doesn't know what they are getting. Is it a hassle to involve the client for this stuff? Uhm, no, it really isn't. We have future tech available to us at all times. Video calls are great, screen shares et al. Should my junior programmer have access to the clients? Lol...seriously? Who would do that? Unless you had a rising star in the company, no no. But, the people who are in charge of actually completing the job need to be in direct contact with the client who signs off on the work. For liability, for satisfaction, for time, for planning... Anyway, that's how I'd do it. The last start up I worked with had a close, and I mean close, relationship with its clients. And, it wasn't some distant marketeer with a client list, it was the person involved with leading the actual guys on the ground. Worked great...until the focus dropped off the personal relationships and shifted to marketing...the company crashed hard...but was saved because those relationships that had been built were somewhat easy to stoke alive again. I ended up quitting the day things got back on their feet with my share of the company. Can't abandon them during the hard times, but "I told you so..." /rant

The underlying problem is that pointer assignments (even among local variables) become extremely expensive. You need a reference count update for each pointer assignment, so rather than being a move between register and/or stack locations (and with register renaming, possibly entirely free), you also have to do the following: * Test if the source is null; if not, increment the reference count. * Test if the destination is null; if not, decrement the reference count; if the reference count has become zero, free the memory. You can get away without the null tests if your language does not permit either location to contain a null reference, but you are still left with having to do arithmetic operations in a very cache-unfriendly manner on two memory locations. This gets worse if you are allowing multiple threads to share such references, as this requires expensive atomic reference count updates. There are two principal solutions to that, but both require extra effort: * Use an optimizing compiler to remove unnecessary reference count updates; this is what Swift does, for example. * Use deferred reference counting, which only counts references from heap objects and global variables. Assignments to local variables do not increase the reference count. If the reference count is zero, store the reference in a zero count table (ZCT), but do not free the object yet (as it may be referenced from a local variable); if an object in the ZCT is stored on the heap, remove it from the ZCT. Then, periodically check objects in the ZCT if they are referenced from a local variable (by scanning the stack and registers), and free them if they aren't.
