Tiny Bug Child posted:they have already solved this one but you're too dumb to use the solution they jammed it inside a kitchen sink function in an external library. that's doubly baffling because it would fit right in with the rest of the php standard library

reminder, the adage is "everything but the kitchen sink" indicating a set that specifically excludes the sink and not that the kitchen sink itself is somehow a universal set that includes everything

php has official external libraries? gently caress i thought they just crammed everything in the standard lib with no rhyme or reason to the naming scheme

java is the best language b/c it actually got out of the toy stage. unlike all web "languages" (ex: javascript) or p-languages

java at least has a debugger

javascript is good for what it was designed to do: popping up and then closing browser windows. doing anything else w/ it is just wrong

last week i had a phone screen with a webdev and was trying to explain a project i had worked on by analogy to Windows GDI, he didn't know what that was and i was like what the gently caress are you doing in my industry

Beyond all the other cool stuff Clojure offers, it's new "reducers" which provide auto-parallelizable collections is an unbelievable killer feature. Details here; http://clojure.com/blog/2012/05/08/reducers-a-library-and-model-for-collection-processing.html It's the first time I've run across a solid example where you can code at the speed of something like Ruby, and in a broad range of cases get better performance than normal C code. As always, your own mileage may vary though.

vapid cutlery posted:faster than parallel C? No, certainly not. Writing high-performance parallel C/C++ code is in many cases like writing assembly code that's faster than what the C compiler produces. If you invest in that level of optimization you'll get the speed boost, but in many cases it's just not worth it. Anything you can do in Clojure you can likely do faster in C/C++, but with a lot more work. Just like anything you can do in C/C++ you can do faster in assembly, but with a lot more work. You may remember similar discussions between the C and assembly guys in the mid-1980s. It's just another tool for the toolbox, since there is no one tool that's best for everything.

Police Academy III posted:I mean look at this poo poo I think you're looking for this; http://clojuredocs.org/clojure_core/clojure.set/index The function doc strings are great when you're already familiar with the language, but sites with examples are better suited for when you're getting started. I find this is true for many different languages/systems, and is one reason why you have both the Camel and the Llama book for PERL.

Gazpacho posted:because jvm languages defer the final translation to machine code until runtime and therefore leave some flexibility as to how that happens. whereas with C the runtime generally just gets the machine code and has to pretend to execute it instruction by instruction yeah thats the theory.
