Enough of the class warfare. But isn't the subtext that coding can save you or someone? Maybe but I doubt it. I haven't found that to be the case. Writing phone apps is a pretty ba…

You clearly have no idea what your talking about.

Intellij is a buggy, buggy slow, confusing, MS Office version of an IDE that almost no one needs. As bloated as eclipse is, eclipse actually works. I would gladly pay Ideas price i…

This may seem obvious, but since this site spills a lot of ink arguing about tools, has anyone besides myself ever though that building systems with these languages is actually ins…

Actually I just want to reiterate, regardless of typing problems that CAN exist and be prevented by a compiler, I do t ha e those problems in my codebase and neither do most people…

I will refrain from opining on your newbness and just say this: SQL is just a query/update language. Most of the "ahem" alternatives are slow, severely constrained and don't have t…

The video on the link does not impress. Patching java is getting pretty old. Java is mature technology and you can (and I have) write any metaphor you want on top of it within the …

That is hilarious. And I also hope your joking.

Yes it has. I identify with everything you said my marriage was ruined in a similar fashion. I think I tricked myself in a way thinking side projects made me a better developer whe…

As a java Dev I have been watching Scala to see what people make of it. It seems like Scala is generally perceived as an academic exercise. We all want more powerful tools and infi…

I have wierdly come to a place in which I realize that side projects are bad for my career. Years ago, they nurtured my talents, provided entertaining distraction from my day job a…

Was having a casual convo with another Deva few days ago about IDEs. Always a fun topic but I related to him how sick I am of eclipse after all these years and how even though say …
