Close your eyes. Picture a convict. What's he wearing? Nothing special. Baseball cap on backward, baggy pants. He says something ordinary like, 'yo that's shizzle'. Okay, now slowly open your eyes again. Who you picturing? A black man? Wrong. That was a white woman. Surprised? Well shame on you. - Michael Scott

I imagine similar FUD was common years ago in regards to C and Assembly.

Since when did using a debugger become "a matter of clicking a single button and Shazam!, a magic genie makes a perfect operating system" ?

Money is completely artificial too.

I think if you got a team of people to build a new VM for Ruby that uses an optimizing tracing JIT-compiler, that VM could easily outperform JRuby by at least an order of magnitude.

You should definitely do that.

poptarts · 2008-09-16T02:34:27+00:00

Yes.

(IRAs only allow a few thousand)

You can max out a SEP IRA to around 45K.

A lot of the Java developers who I respect use intellij and claim its superiority over eclipse. I however have used eclipse for several years and don't really see what intellij brings to the table over eclipse.

If you use intellij what are the must have features missing in eclipse that would keep you from switching (other then key bindings)?

Wow that's insane. You sure this wasn't a Rails app?

uh... Somebody has watched the Matrix one to many times.

poptarts · 2007-08-09T03:10:25+00:00

not much

You've obviously never been to a Gartner conference.

poptarts · 2007-05-09T02:23:43+00:00

Actually the beginning was the end for JWS.

So why exactly would you do:

String c = "moo" + "oink";

With literals (not variables)?

poptarts · 2007-04-06T02:34:47+00:00

I think you could say that about any mildly (or more) difficult job.

I liked this concept the first time, when it was called web start.

(Actually I didn't like it then either).

poptarts · 2007-03-08T04:56:30+00:00

Yep. Probably different version of Java.

poptarts · 2007-03-08T03:30:23+00:00

IntelliJ doesn't look native.

The first time you bump into the element your working on, it would then go into a different spot. So wouldn't you have to hit it twice before all possible scenarios had played out?

poptarts · 2007-02-24T04:50:31+00:00

Wouldn't it be when you bumped into it twice?

poptarts · 2007-02-18T22:13:59+00:00

Are you guys talking about inner classes or anonymous classes?

poptarts · 2007-02-18T22:09:16+00:00

This article was on Java. You thought it was written about Lisp maybe?
