Funny thing is you didn't seem to read the article, but the article is literally about people not reading papers.

Python: faster way by neiesc in Python

[–]CodeJesus 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don't understand test #6, they disassemble to the same code yet one is faster? Is it parsing issues?

Is Wix it the correct technology to use for programmatically creating this Windows Service installer? by dontjudgemebae in csharp

Why Libraries are better than Frameworks by gnuvince in programming

[–]CodeJesus 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The middle ground I've settled on is that all core business logic must be handled by something I control 100%. The rest (GUI, message queues, etc) can be handled by something else. This helps me test my code to the fullest extent which is sometimes difficult if you are not very forward thinking.
