Re:A Real Keyboard for Programmers?

most i agree, except "Stupid keys like Page Up, Scroll Lock, and Insert are gone. They have no place in modern computing."
Having the default 2 x 3 insert home pgup; delete end pgdown is my #1 requirement to any keyboard.

TL;DR: think of string as tuple of numbers. some are bytes, some are integers. if you want to transform those numbers into a particular encoding (e.g. UTF-8, CP-1252) then that's a different story.
EDIT: I know the article went all out about character abstraction, that why i said "some are bytes, some are integers"

The difference is in real life, nobody has to maintain said "screw driver." Your metaphor is not sound sir!

Re:JSON is not as safe as people think it is

That's why google starts their json with while(1); (or something like that) so any effort attempting to evaluate the json itself as javascript code will be stuck in an infinite loop.
Re:Computer Science in Vietnam
on Monday March 18, 2013 @02:33AM (#5392771)
This post does not describe the typical school in Vietnam. Unless it has dramatically changed over the last 6 years, last I recall, the most programming was taught in high school was some Hello world and how to use loops. Having said that, I was selected (via an MS Excel test) into a "gifted" team since 8th grade that was trained algorithmic programming to compete with other school districts. But that's not typical and is in no way the regular ciriculum.
