RE: Why I've Quit Twitter (random article)
Oh this is about the m*ldbug thing? To be fair to lambdaconf, if you barred everyone who was clearly deranged from speaking, you wouldn't have much of a functional programming conference.

RE: Oh ... Java ... What Are We Going To Do With You?
@dkf to expand on this, each class is in it'sown .class file, in a folder hierarchy correspondingto its package, so knowing what classes are available really is as simple as getting a list of the files available on the classpath. Unless there's something I'm missing?

RE: It's 2016 and software ***STILL*** has problems with spaces in paths!
Validating a given password against stored data is necessarily computationally expensive (to thwart brute-force attacks on the password db), so if someone is indexing on pw, they fucked up.

RE: On Jellypotato...
Just to take a step back here, why is there content above the target post at all? You're already sending us to the post before the one we were looking for (a decision I agree with btw, I'm not complaining), couldn't you mitigate 99% of the by only having 0 or 1 additional posts present before that?

RE: If I push enough shit in my DOM, even Chrome is too slow!!!1
@ChrisH said in [If I push enough shit in my DOM:
really don't know what to say here.
Embrace "no work"
No. "No work" is exactly what brought us here. "Oh no, I'd have to think for a minute before I write this function so that it does what I need. I better pull in some package that might already do that. Or better yet, I'll use Ember."
Way to reply to your own imagination of what he said than the fucking words that were right there on the page. Firstly, the point right before that one he had already warned against pulling in unnecessary dependencies, secondly, the ‘no work’ he's talking about there is no work being done by the browser, as in: making use of compile-time optimization, lazy evaluation where appropriate, etc.
Since you apparently didn't read past the word ‘Ember’, I'll go ahead and provide a summary of what the article is actually about:
Apparently chrome introduces new features before any otherbrowsers, before the features are standardized, and then has such shitty performance on android that developers are forced to use all of those features just to break even. Embrace/extend/extinguish all over again

RE: Oh ... Java ... What Are We Going To Do With You?
@JBert I agree with you. You can create your own functional interface that does throw the exception type you need, and use that for parameters to your own code, but that doesn't help much when all the standard library methods are using the no-throw versions. Best I've got is having a CompanyFunction interface that thows CompanyException, and has an orElse default method that returns a function. So you can do something like
CompanyFunction.of(Business::method).orElse(e -> { e.printStackTrace(); return null; });

the time java took to have generics
Java had generics before c#, which is partof why java generics suck so much worse than c#'s. They thought they could implement them as a zero-cost abstraction, but it turns out not really. C# was able to learn from java's mistake. So if java's a bit slower now on the uptake, I'm ok with that. C#'s endless syntax bloat can be annoyance of it's own.

RE: Cash
@lucas1 ok, so if you want to find out what files are in a directory on the other box, do you type
ls dirname/

RE: It's 2016 and software ***STILL*** has problems with spaces in paths!
@Nocha processbuilder has been in java since 1.5, and takes the executable name followed by arguments as an array of strings. The trouble is they haven't marked System.exec derpecated, so there'sa bunch of halfass code still stringifying shit and munging it throughbash. Since its halfass to begin with, of course they're not gonna check that their code handlesspaces properly, and their response to your complaint's gonna be “don't use spaces then”. But it's not necessarily Android Studio, or IntelliJ that they depend on, that are the halfasses here. More likely to be halfass code in the plugins to their ide that'sbeen causing grief, in my experience.
Filed under its 2016 why can't textboxes handle spaces inserted by autocorrect correctly?!

@anonymous234 um, linux isn't an os, it's a kernel. You're talking about ext-fs, which is a different thing entirely.

RE: Cash
@lucas1 could you please provide more detail, this is something Iam interested in. Are you sshing into windows machines? Are you opening a remote shell or executing remote commands one at a time from your local machine? If you open a shell on a remote machine, do you lose your local config (key bindings etc)?

RE: It's 2016 and software ***STILL*** has problems with spaces in paths!
@Arantor oh, you're talking aboutthe software in the op specifically? I thought you meant the general case. The softwarein the op isn't acceptingurls, it's manually detecting spaces in file system paths entered, and disallowing them, based on the high likelihood that otherprograms or plugins relied on by the ndk will fail to handle them correctly.

RE: Cash
@lucas1 it's 2016 and software still has trouble with spaces in filenames!
But apart from that, I mostly support this kind of thing. Bash is fucked, but there's no alternative with even half the tooling. Seems like they've included some kind of autocomplete library, so at least there's that.
Biggest problem in trying to escape bash is you're not gonna be able to manage any remote machines without it; ssh is a shirty half-baked protocol whose only option for remote execution of commands is to send a string of text to be parsed at the other end by whatever shell happens to be there. Does ssh specify what that shell is? I think not.

RE: Blakeyrat pointing out NodeBB problems
@RaceProUK LOOK AT IT WITH YOUR MOTHER FUCKING EYES. Take the window this site is in and start making it narrower. I'll wait.

RE: Blakeyrat pointing out NodeBB problems
@RaceProUK said:
you can see this yourself if you play with the window size.
I don't care what the site looks like while it's resizing. That'stechnological wank. What I care about is being able to look at the post I am responding to while Iam responding to it.
The obvious way to respond to screen size is to respond to the amount of space that there is on the screen. Building a different mobile and desktop site, and loading a different one in depending on what the screen size is, that's not really responding to the screen size. That's just using screen size as a proxy for device type. Which is doubly shitty, considering determining device type is already a solved problem.
But because of your narrow technological definition of ‘responsive’ web design, you are refusing to use the tried and tested way of responding to changes in device type, and as a resultalso failing to respond appropriately to changes in window size. Dumb.

It is working as intended - the intent being that if you use a retardedly small viewport then you get the retardedly small view.
If that is the intent, then it's not working as intended. The mobile version of this site is not 'a small view' of the same site, it is a completely different version of the site, with different functionality and different bugs than the desktop version. Don't let your knowledge of what's happening on the backend deceive you about the facts that you can see with your eyes. This is not a responsive design, it is a web page with a separate mobile site. If nodebb would just fucking call their spade a spade, we would at least be able to override the setting, and maybe I would be able to preview my posts at last (I never post from desktop).

@julianlam said:
expect the composer to behave similarly on both portrait and landscape,
I feel like this is the same bug as @Blake91's bug: you shouldn't have two completely different modes for mobile and desktop. Responsive design means having the same elements just reflow differently depending on the size of the screen. If you've got a massive step change happening at any resolution, you're going to get complaints like this.

RE: Where's the outrage?
@another_sam said:
Tridge had the audacity to type "help" after connecting to a BitKeeper repository.
Tridgell particularly sought to reject claims that he had somehow violated the proprietary BitKeeper code by reverse-engineering its metadata formats for use in an open source client, thus leading BitKeeper to revoke the Linux development community's licence.
To cheers from the 500-strong audience, Tridgell demonstrated how information available from BitKeeper's own online help made gaining access to that information a trivial task.
"We have now, in a single line of shell, implemented a BitKeeper client," he said.
Hmm

The YT crowd
Posting about a different youtube bug reminded of this one I screenshot a while ago and forgot to post:
Reminds me of a story a friend told me about how when he was a kid, if he accidentally pressed the insert key, and it enabled type-over mode, he would just restart the computer.
The title of this thread is a reference to the BBC television sitcom ‘The IT Crowd’, with it's catchphrase of “have you tried turning it off and then turning it on again?”

Youtube cannot into enter
Ok, I don't use youtube much, so sorry if everyone already new this, or it could also just be a glitch in wp10 edge, but when I searched for it (expecting to find that newlines were intentionally disallowed), this thread really made me wtf:
I'm having trouble posting comments on youtube that have more than one paragraph. In the edit box the paragraphs are separated by blank lines, but when I post, everything is condensed into one long block of text. Other people's comments have paragraphs, and I managed it once, but I don't seem to be able to do it again. Is there a trick to this, or is something broken?
Thats the exact bug I hit.
After a dozen attempts at editing it it eventually inserted a line break by it self to make word wrap work. Not sure how that happened but copying that line break (including the character at the end of the line and the first one on the next line) allowed me to insert working line breaks into the rest of the comment.
You fucking kidding me?!
I don't know exactly why this works, but pressing <Shift>-<Enter> instead of just <Enter> seems to keep the blank lines after you post the comment.
You can go back and just use <Shift>-<Enter> to restore the paragraphs on your comments.
... incidentally, the keypress <Shift>-<Enter> also lets you post paragraphs into Facebook comments which otherwise would POST your comment as soon as you press <Enter>. This keypress of <Shift>-<Enter> must be the elusive Line-Feed character that's almost never used since it doesn't have its own key on the keyboard.
<Shift>-<Enter> lets you add the paragraphs to YouTube comments. What I started doing is, at the end of a paragraph I press twice on <Shift>-<Enter> to start the new paragraph and that seems to get the job done.
Well, thanks, accepted-answer guy, but fat lot of good that does me on mobile.
