returning Boolean sounds like returning a Maybe Boolean which is an entirely useful concept, but obviously Java is not set up to make that work right

Snapchat A Titty posted:well theoretically, they could choose a some unassigned code point and designate that as an extender that provides some arbitrary number of bits for further characters. you might even call the extender and the further bits a pair. maybe one is a high and one is a low. maybe, and stick with me here, we call them "surrogate" because they're a substitute for the proper full value. nah this won't work. unicode has reached its maximum size

uwp is hot garbage that serves no purpose. nobody uses windows phone so uwp brings nobody new to the platform. if you already put up with wpf it is an entirely pointless reimplementation with zero attraction. having zero audience leads to decreasing support from microsoft and the death spiral of uwp the worst that can be said about wpf is that it is competitive with ui frameworks on other platforms that have similar goals. if you have similar tastes as shaggar maybe it is the gold standard, if you're a little more circumspect it is merely fine wpf can absolutely be improved, but uwp has no claim to that mantle. can't wait to see what the next lovely reimplementation of wpf looks like! we'll get it right this time! why is the silverlight team laughing at us?

here is my example of pointless lovely reimplementation this is the wpf tilebrush this is the uwp tilebrush are there any properties on the wpf one that seem oddly absent from the uwp one? how about TileMode you know, the property that controls how the contents are tiled oh, we took that out of uwp? so TileBrush doesn't tile but we kept the class hierarchy for... convenience?

Malcolm XML posted:performance reasons made them do winrt, i.e. the revenge of COM, so that u could use C++ is .net core part of winrt or otherwise reliant on it? also wasn't there some other managed c++ thing before uwp's managed c++ thing? were those deemed insufficiently performant? it's not obvious to me that wpf etc. are fundamentally incapable of meeting performance goals but idk anything also using uwp apps doesn't make me think "hot drat this performance is super keen". I assume that bet paid off handsomely in some other way. no doubt idiotic politics and pointless emphasis on programmer comfort are benefits that the end user can confidently expect to realize any decade now

rjmccall posted:what is the most important operation in objective c, and what are its special cases? guessing it’s retain/release, because the tagged pointer check is somehow faster if it’s the msb? turns it into a negative signed integer? snarky commentary on guess: objc only seems to get new things for Swift bridging these days, was that the motivation for change? objc_msgSend is my other guess but idk if that counts as an operation and I can’t think of any special cases helped by changing the bit

rjmccall posted:how do you think message send works, and what are the special cases oh well if it was done for message send then yeah I wouldn’t think it’s motivated by Swift bridging special cases I can think of are: tagged pointers nil forwarding I suspect you’re thinking of tagged pointers and nil, but I can’t figure out why that’s helped by changing the bit tho. it makes the special cases less than or equal to zero?

a witch posted:which of the six built in json decoders did you settle on? programming is all about tradeoffs. right tool for the job. you can't anticipate your users' every future need. we asked that team to add just one little method we needed for our entire product but they refused! fuckers! so we wrote our own realtalk the obvious correct decision is the one that encodes dates in the most insane way possible, ideally in a way that minimizes interoperability. congrats JavaScriptSerializer you win the prize

Shinku ABOOKEN posted:if you use metaprogramming in any sense other than generic types please explain yourself I think I wanted to write less code "don’t repeat yourself", "fewer lines means fewer bugs", etc. taken too far? the mistaken belief that efficiently making GBS threads out code is of primary importance because I can only type so fast? I can’t tell what’s more disappointing: that the only reasons I can guess at are bad, or that I don’t remember having a concrete reason for doing it in the first place maybe my tastes changed
