  • Is it a positive to have pathogens that cause dengue/malaria in your blood? Yet we still say that someone tested positive for dengue if they have the virus.

    Static analysis tools don't test for all known issues either, no?

    It's all just semantics dude. :)

  • You could say "A static analysis tool is testing for the for the presence of defects" or "a medical test is testing if your body is free of diseases that it can detect" to change how you're looking at either of the tests in the previous comment.

  • It's been 8+ years since I last used Ubuntu on my laptop. I faced massive issues with staying on the latest version of Firefox because apt had a much older version, and installing using the gui installer wouldn't replace the apt version etc etc. Probably a PEBKAC issue...

    But, I do want to know- is this not an issue any more? Will apt install the latest (or almost latest) version of Firefox? Can I update it from the inbuilt update tool in Firefox?

  • I say that I like "garbage pizza" because that's how everyone around me treats the pizzas I like. I don't like the "good pizzas" that everyone keeps raving about. I'll take Domino's or Pizza Pizza any day of the week.

  • I've had at least one code reviewer ask me to put all the logic in the if ... line rather than use a variable or two in order to "simplify code by reducing the number of variables."

    At the very least, this article helped me confirm my own bias of "that guy is a moron" and I can send this article to him the next time he reviews my code.

  • Gotcha.

    I thought that was the norm in all academia these days? Can a physicist (or anyone from another field) publish results that didn't go as expected and save future scientists some time?
