Yes, I've seen it Clojure, where the documentation is extensive, giving great coverage to its standard library... but still haves you reading the source and searching the web for examples after reading the description, especially when speaking about macros (so... does this receive a vector? Does it take its arguments as a list, or what? A mixture of both?)

Racket goes full in the other direction, to a fault, even though it's much preferable.Racket's documentation is at times hard to wade through because it's so extensive. You have to scroll through the treatises and descriptions of options to find an example usage which will get you out quickly, but it's, for once, all there in the manual.

Quality trolling. A++, would read again.

I can see why the lady at the bottom right was rolling her eyes.

This whole discussion is an example of why reductionism should be handled with care.

Have you considered how easy it is to stuff yourself with simple carbohydrates? Do you

So if everybody eats potatoes and bread all day... that's enough for you because it satisfies an incredibly obtuse quantitative metric?

It must be because:

a. Somebody bothered to post the initial announcement of this guy

b. He describes his process in detail

c. He's a Software Engineer; it would be disingenuous to think that the fact that he's a peer for the members of this audience isn't a factor

I don't think that fascism means what you think it means. The fascists I have argued with, and this does follow some excerpts from Mussolini's works and speeches, are subjectivists.

And yes, they do exist. They are actually a pest in certain forums. 4chan has a board which functions essentially as a ghetto for them and other miscellaneous right wingers, so that they won't be screwing up, say, the science or the sports boards with white supremacist spiel.

Would you mind parroting out the reasons for dismissal of those ``fallacious'' complaints?

``Reddit'' is worthy of bashing in many ways, but you are bashing it for the wrong reasons; the reason why the article was downvoted there most surely wasn't because of the lack of image macros, but rather that it ran against the locals (he probably posted it in a pro-Bitcoin subreddit) religious fervor.

You still see them swearing allegiance to Bitcoin and deriding those who sold during the crash, all the while holding on to their, at least temporarily, worthless Bitcoins.

They are pretty.

The fact that this wasn't about the latest Javascript light framework didn't tip you off?

As a non-gym goer (if I had the money...), what injuries are you talking about? I can guess that gyms want to protect people who try to lift more weight than they can, rather than straining from posture.

You know who the target of Girls who Code are? Girls. Actual girls. Not ``going to meet some girls''(women) girls. Children. Teenagers.

Teenagers who, by culture, are reluctant to approach Computer Science and other technical fields. This education group is trying to reverse this trend.

RTFWebsite next time.

What do you mean by that? Java bytecode is leaps and bounds more instrospectable, and by that, I mean that programs can actually garner useful information from it, otherwise tools like Eclipse's code completion woudn't work. The source won't be preserved, but the class, field and method names will. That's much better than what you get from minified JS. I also mean that, despite its unconvenience, Java's reflection API is still quite powerful.

I don't get the fixation with the fact that the filename ends in a .js extension; just because a bunch of code is in a familiar interpreted language doesn't make it readable or maintainable in any other manner.
