@ReliantFever735 shoot are you saying this is a repost? I honestly had no idea someone else posted this if they did. I self discovered this after upgrading to MacOS Sierra.
-
@lostpirate yeah I randomly remembered the comic when I upgraded to macOS Sierra and decided to use Siri for the first time on my Mac and asked her those two questions.

@JoseHdez2 ah okay that makes sense. Tagalog has loan words from Spanish, and I guess edad is one of them. It age in Tagalog as well.

It's a domain specific language. There are three types of domain specific languages according to Wikipedia two of those three are: domain specific markup language and domain specific programming languages. HTML is a domain specific markup language. (It stands for HyperText Markup Language BTW.) My point being it is widely considered a language just a lot narrowly accepted as a programming language.
Unless details were left out of his statement the guy is perfectly right in saying he knows the language HTML. If he were saying he knew it as a programming language, which btw the word programming was not specified above then there could be debate about it. Personally I think it's HTML is a programming language. You can watch this video from Computerphile for one reason why I call it that. https://youtu.be/4A2mWqLUpzw -
@oroys funny thing is in this version the guy has a keyboard right in front of him.
-
By the way kind of off topic but are you philipino? And is that Tagalog?😃
-
I'm pretty sure what you want is the isNaN function https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US... just one of those things you learn along the way.
-
I'm sorry but I don't quite understand what your getting at. If your saying HTML is not a language then I disagree? If your saying he doesn't know many languages then I agree that's not that many.

If you are wondering if blackberries run Java then yes I know there are some new ones that run Android. Not sure about the other ones.
-
Completely depends on the project. I don't think it would be nearly as easy or fun coding in Java or C++ on Sublime Text compared to an IDE. If you are doing HTML, CSS, and JS (Node.js included) it is probably more beneficial to use a text editor because of the bloat from an IDE.
-
Are you sure the job implied that you couldn't use Linux or Mac and that you had to use Windows? Not every person at Microsoft has to be running Windows in fact teams making iOS apps and Mac apps and the like would have to use Mac.
-
Eh, programming is worth it. \s
-
I feel it would be worse for right handed people. You would not be able to scroll as easily with the buttons in the way, and make accidental votes.
-
@jackson1234 well you better go change them all. 😄
-
@dasheck yeah interesting. It would definitely be cool to learn about NoSQL. I use NoSQL at my work, but know nothing about it's internals or it's underlying theories.
-
You can make Siri have a male voice too. 😀

My developer super power:
I can use google and actually find answers to my problems. 😂😜 -
@dasheck yeah just looked into transitive closures real quick. I thought they had something to do with closures in lexical scoped programming languages like JavaScript, but it's more a math thing. Seems like database systems go pretty deep into set theory. I am planning on taking a discrete math class next semester and am prepping for it by taking an MIT OpenCourseWare course this summer. So I know very little of the subject matter.
I've talked to my Dad who has a PH.D. In economics and teaches Management Information Systems at the university I attend he said classes he took in set theory were some of the hardest ones he'd ever taken.
Seems pretty rigorous and I agree it's probably not for everyone. I think it may be fun to at least know a little bit about it though. 😀 I'm grateful everyone has there own specialization so that we all don't have to be experts on everything.
Also are there things that are difficult that don't even have to do with the math? -
@dasheck maybe since he knows there is so much complexity he may feel it's bound to be less stable. I believe I get to take a database course like that some time for my CS degree. I'm looking forward to it. 😬 I mean transitive closures. I mean closures were hard for me to wrap my head around in the first place but I have no idea what a transitive one is. Looks like I have some new research material. 😀

@Willyb321 hmm, that's strange maybe you could try filing an issue or something.
-
P.S. if anyone downloads it and wants good packages check these out. https://github.com/bnb/...
-
@rozzzly yeah it says it should be available soon for linux and windows. Hopefully sooner rather than later. It is an open source project.
-
@Willyb321 It only works on Mac. Do you have one?
-
@Willyb321 nativefier is definitley nice too. 😀
-
Now you've got my curious why would that be exactly? I don't know much about database internals. Is it, because like a sausage their internals are utter crap? Or, is it just trying to say once you know the building blocks you might be able to build something without it?
-
@apsa hey well by definition trumpscript trumps all other scripts. \s
-
Your phone probably has some sort of do not disturb mode on it to turn off notifications.
-
It's funny, that ham email is the opposite of spam email, because spam is a fake ham like meat! 😀

@h3ll. TIL means today I learned, and actually... TIL the meaning of TIL. hehe
