there are some really weird jvms out there if you look hard enough

also compiling with -target 1.3 isn't a 100% solution because javac will be using the newer stdlib. very easy to accidentally use an api that doesn't exist on the target jvm and get weird loving linkageerrors and noclassdeffounderrors

I've got a local job talking about Java 1.4

Should I be willing to do this or is the lack of generics going to make me want to scream?

The only DBA I remember dealing with shrugged it off when we found our DB password leaked on some Russian site and said "who cares it was a MySQL 4 password anyway, it is poo poo hashing" and then never changed the password.

He lost his job a few weeks later.

i was reading some oracle docs and holy poo poo real databases are nuts. unfortunately i don't think our database guys are using any of the advanced features :( but a skilled dba can probably do all sorts of wizard poo poo.

parametric polymorphism was introduced in 1975, and bounded polymorphism in 1985. java 1.4 was released in 2002. no excuse :mad:

julia is a really nice abstraction over the LAPACK stuff. it's fun to use and you won't be investing much at all to be productive. however it's still got a ways to go before a stable release

i want to create a program for tracking inventory on my shipping supplies

does it pay to put the work into creating a database and program that interacts with it or should i just stop being lazy? tia

how much do you ship per day and how long does it take to get new supplies?

if it's "not much" and "eh a day or two" use piles

1) put enough of each supply in piles to last you until more supplies arrive
2) put a note on top of the pile that says REORDER MORE SUPPLIES
3) put the rest of your supplies on top of the note
4) when you get to the note, reorder supplies and keep on truckin'
5) when you get more supplies, repeat the above process

i can sort of do it when i do hosed up template poo poo in c++ but it doesnt seem very natural to me compared to imperative programming

I wouldn't really know how to go about it, and hate my voice on recordings too much to edit it.

Even when I do a talk at a conference or something, I'll tend to transcribe it in text form and redirect people there instead.
