and of course there's the... whatever that effect is called where productivity immediately rises whenever there's a change in the workplace

Good point. Maybe quality of output?

Hmm, does this mean we need to do studies on knowledge workers and overtime?

I remember google's doodle that did that

would have scared most of us off

adding in brainf&^&

Scheme and Prolog were hard enough

So if it was rebranded...?

Identifying leaky abstraction points is particularly useful I find.

Learning different paradigms is useful, particularly when you start to identifying what solutions are best in each paradigm

I should learn Haskell one week when I am not needed to do any other thinking.

There's an argument about cognitive overload there. To be fair, just learning the vocabulary of programming in general induces significant cognitive load.

latinate prefixes scare you?

like Brainf*&^

Hmm, well, there is a point - sometimes programming can be just such a joke its the antithesis of "serious"

"About computer problems: has to deal with audios, with being able to stream from NAS on smart tv and with other misc. issues."

lol

asked the wrong question and gets pissed off about it

stick

what an ass

NO!

just changed my gravatar, what do I do now? leave and come back?

aw, no!

How about a pet snake or pet gecko? I have one of each.

Okay.

Hahahahaha

and this spot needs to be rainbow only on contradictory conditions

button here, scroll list here, header here

in gui toolkits

we do have some of that abstraction already

to be fair

the code becomes very hard to maintain

when there's three or four code paths to almost any state...

sigh

"wall full of dead bodies" looks at code

the stuff I need to do in the vectors is always just different enough I couldn't make a generic function pointer

I wish.

with a passed in function pointer?

I'm just tired of writing yet another loop to iterate over a vector

Hmm, yeah.

and the walls and columns would all be standard and made the same way.

I feel like we should be at the "I need a wall here, and a column here and wiring here" and not needing to manually build the walls, columns, wiring etc myself.

I for one am tired of repetitive structural work in programming

heh

delphi/vcl...

Ugh, yeah

:P
