i'm making a thing for my mom, she's a contractor nurse and she has a bunch of one-page forms she's scanning so she can punch in a name and see all the previous times she was somewhere. i need some big-rear end windows 3.1 icons. where can i find giant old icons since the only software she knows how to run is 1990s encyclopedias and internet browsers.

Found this in our SVN history recently:

code:

         Collection<String> errorsToRemove = new ArrayList<String>();
         for (String error : errors)
         {
            if (error.contains("provide") && error.contains("valid") && error.contains("email"))
               errorsToRemove.add(error);
            if (error.contains("enter") && error.contains("password"))
               errorsToRemove.add(error);
         }
         for (String error : errorsToRemove)
            errors.remove(error);

Somebody has been using enhanced for loops for too long. Among other things.

why does VS2013 once in a while pop up and say "set property 'system.windows.resourcedictionary.deferrablecontent' threw an exception" whenever I try to hit anything in a menu until I reboot? not just in my project (which has no resource name conflicts, a possible cause) but even with no projects open.

microsoft's webpage says "F# is a whitespace-sensitive language by default. "

does this mean i can turn that off and use braces like a normal language or what?

you can use braces and semicolons just like you would in C#

there's no reason to though bc unlike in javascript or whatever (where braceless styles are suicide) in f# you've got the offside rule to keep you on the straight and narrow

i don't know about f# but if the whitespace is handled like haskell there's no janitoring to be done. just indent your code like you should be doing anyway and it will just work

try ocaml, it's what MS used as the basis for F# so it's very similar, but not whitespace-sensitive. you can write every function on one line if you want :getin:

gonadic io: Feb 16, 2011; >>=

I don't know about F# but the following are all equivalent in Haskell:

code:

main = do
    printf "What is your name?"
    name <- getLine
    printf "gently caress off, %s" name

code:

main = do {printf "What is your name?"; name <- getLine; printf "gently caress off, %s" name}

code:

main = printf "What is your name?" >> getLine >>= printf "gently caress off, %s"

although the first one is the most common way of doing it, the second is generally only used for generated code and the third is for people who are showing off it lets you do more clever and concise things

see how the return from getLine wasn't named but was instead passed straight to printf? this is also an example of partial application - instead of giving the second printf all its arguments at once, we just give it 1 to begin with and it gets the 2nd later

gonadic io fucked around with this message at 12:42 on Sep 4, 2014
