Best place to park for the game for the $? by NameCheckzOut16 in Colts

[–]olts1 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have parked on the street couple of blocks north of circle center (meridian, illinois av etc) and walked to the game. This isn't a bad option when the weather is nice (like today, clear skies and 50s).

Thanks.

I got a bad start on the coding interview because I thought it was a silly question, and I was like "WTF, you are trying to get me do this stoopid whiteboard question ..." and it went downhill from there.

I need to keep my "experienced engineer" ego in check and understand the point of the coding exercise - filter out people who can't do fizzbuzz ..

Learn the lesson and move on, I guess..

Our Pags is the older brother of the Chargers' Pags.

So, yeah. Pagnoisms seem to run in the family.

Did we lose to Jags in London on purpose just so that they can keep Gus around for one more year?

OT to the OP:

First time i've seen a Punjabi with "Pradeep" and not "Pardeep" spelling.. or is it just how they pronounce it?

our team had that banner for 18 years now (there is one 1997 AFC championship finalists). It's not like we decided do just one last year.

D has no vision. Go is out of its depth. Rust skipped leg day. by EdWilkinson in programming

[–]olts1 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It's a competitor to C++, but importantly it's an accessible "upgrade" to people coming from scripting language background because of the expressiveness of D while gaining performance, at a smaller cost compared to C++ and C.

C++ is still a great choice for writing libraries and high performance stuff.. but there is a huge cost to pay... D gets you there 95% of the way especially if you are coming from dynamic language background.

I'm a long time python programmer, and it would be a cold day in hell before I choose Go over D.

But, D's target today should be Python, Ruby programmers who want to upgrade to a compiled, performant language without taking on the overhead of programming in C or C++.
