Why would Russians specifically use Facebook? They have “Ok” and “Vkontakte”

Programming•Is Python's tooling incredibly difficult, or am I just stupid?
50·1 year agoYou re not stupid, python’s packaging & versionning is PITA. as long as you write it for yourself, you re good. As soon as you want to share it, you have a problem

JavaScript•Assertions in If-Clauses in Unit Tests: Tips and Best Practices
1·1 year agoDon’t write “if” in your tests! It makes very, very little sense: how is that, you test your application and you are unsure what is the resulting outcome of a call? Is it depending on arguments? Then fix the argument, and expect 1 specific result. Is it depending on environment? Fix/mock the environment.
No “ifs” in the tests!

Programming•Rant: "Knuth, The art of computer programming" is overhyped
13·1 year agoI am mostly complaining about his writing style. Obviously the subject itself is interesting (to some people)

Programming•Rant: "Knuth, The art of computer programming" is overhyped
9·1 year agoThat sounds interesting, will take a look. I am not against theoretical computer science, i just think Knuth doesn’t reads like a good teacher…

Programming•Rant: "Knuth, The art of computer programming" is overhyped
412·1 year agoBecause volume 1 is not available in the library
Edit: but also the volumes aren’t not dependent on each other. They treat very different topics, i doubt reading Volume 1 will help with Volume 4.
I don’t understand why this is called a “subset”, while clearly containing new syntax
A subset would be understood by older compilers, this is a superset
