i'd pay in blood for a language with sql literals.

linq is close enough, i guess.

i don't know how to explain this right. uhhhh so i have a list of points calculated from iterating over ((forward vector - gravity vector) * iteration step). the Y axis of the chart is the Y value of the coordinate, the X axis of the chart is one iteration step. iteration runs until the height is below 0. yes, i know this is a bar chart.



the problem is that I want to figure out the value of Y when X is 1, 2, 3, etc. and this is just showing the height at each iteration step no matter what X is at each step. how do I get from a point (0.89842789, 0.5687986) or whatever to finding the value of Y when X = 1 so my chart makes sense?

i don't know if i'm using the right terminology. the last math class i took was college algebra.

no but they have very little in common

data scientist is a person who knows SQL and can make charts for executives to show off in powerpoint presentations. They're basically doing excel but across bigger datasets that would make excel crash.
ML programmers specializes in finding patterns out of masses of data as a way to make the product better or more profitable or whatever

That being said, if you have tons of worthless data with no discernible capital-F features, it's all worthless anyways. You just get paid more with a less known buzzword in your title.

also when things go south, you're booted first because they just see you as a cog vs someone who provided "tangible" benefits

huh. the "data scientists" i know of do plenty of ml, but i guess it's not a well defined position

you mean like Embedded SQL?

behold the horror that made me keep away from databases for a long time

code:

#include<stdio.h>

EXEC SQL BEGIN DECLARE SECTION;

strcpy(city_name,"Denver");

        FROM STATION 
        WHERE CITY = :city_name;
if (SQLCODE == 100)
        { 
        printf("There is no station for city %s\n",city_name); 
        exit(0);

It does realize, and it turns the currently open document into a new unsaved document

i have never wanted or needed that. it should keep the file open and just update where it saves to.

might even be a dealbreaker for me

is there any reason to use sublime over anything else at this point? gently caress it, notepad++ still works for me.

this is NOT the time to laugh at sublimes settings, but it looks like there is one for this

that seems to remember what files were open when you close & reopen the whole app

you can easily setup all your sublime plugins using dropbox, so when installing on a new machine its really easy to get started

two companies ago, everybody called them "sprocs"; it drove me up the wall



i'm trying to write a servlet that will work with different versions of selenium grid -- one that uses org.json.json and one that uses com.google.gson. the two libraries have similar but not identical interfaces. i would like to write a class that gives me a kind of front-end common interface for the libraries. i know there has to be a pattern for this, but it's not "facade", and i can't think of any other candidates

Shaggar posted:

yeah but why do you have separate json libs and why are you not just using jackson + jax-rs like everyone else.
