@deus thanks. Will take you up on it and give it a try :)
-
Try a 20 minutes power nap _without_ falling asleep. Thank me later ;)
-
Linux here as well
-
Would give that guy a beer for formatting all the code tbh

It’s because every time one answers a question two new questions appear. Nobody _knows_ anything, but people who never seek answers only think there’s that one simple answer to everything.
Not that I know any of that, of course... :-) -
Agree with comments above. Also types are for data integrity.
Example: One would like to know that x is a double and not a string, if you were to calculate the average result of some scores.
In JavaScript you can do: var x = 1 + “1”; which would return “11”. In Java you would do: int x = 1. If you were to add “1” (a string) to x, the compiler would shout at you. This saves a lot of debugging and messy code you could end up with. -
Perhaps they meant “... 8 years of swift experience”. *giggles*
-
Jumpsuits perhaps?
-
@AlexDeLarge I'm with you. One can only hope to inspire others along the way.

Love your passion OP. The world need more of your kind. ++

Humanity > ego

@m3ty could add a few more to the list, but then again there are cool features such as Closures, lambdas, traits etc.
Anyways the bottom line for me is that I think whatever language you use should be written carefully. One would never use the == comparator fx but the === so I can't really see the big hurdle in that particular case. There are also methods provided for type comparison. Personally I really like the "arrays" (ordered maps) in PHP as they've helped me lots of time creating fast recursive algorithms with constant selections. Again, one has to consider potential pitfalls but that goes for all languages. -
TBH I think you either don't know PHP at all or you are still caught in early 2000 (5.6j)
Could you provide any facts or example? -
@practiseSafeHex haha - you win good sir. Well played. I'm OFF to bed :-)
-
@practiseSafeHex you are absolutely right. I will try to resist next time!
-
@practiseSafeHex well, it might be that I short circuited for a moment there
-
@practiseSafeHex what a shocking way to put it!
-
One could say they are no longer grounded. *giggles*

Jobs is probably breathing heavily while trying to "swipe to unlock" his iCoffin.
-
Could also try vaping, instead of cotabbo
-
So what happens if you play "pump up the volume" on the speakers?
-
@bittersweet haha, priceless @ dc.
-
1 px to rule them all

@arcadesdude it's like that psychology marshmallow experiment performed on children. If they didn't eat it they would get two more after 20 minutes.
-
Sounds like they invest in you. It sounds like a win to me. The most expensive cost one can invest is time.
-
@darwyyn sounds like he already did that with his brain.
-
Only if the CFO told you the service was unavailable due to unpaid bills :)

Was trying to answer you in Vim but couldn't close and save the file 🤡
-
@jhh2450 not to mention the erotic dolls/sex machines in Asia

@clovisIrex unless Pokèmons are involved, apparently
