Actually, so is the rest of Vista's unzip too.
|
|
The performance of windows vista's unzip is comical.

@RobertFischer Oh, it's not just for syntax debates. There are thousands of other pointless debates it's for too.
|
|
@RobertFischer The one on scala-debate that llimllib linked to yesterday.
|
|
At this point I just want to point to this entire damn GvR thread and say "See this? This is why we can't have nice things"
|
|
@emmapersky It's not that exciting.
|
|
@codemonkeyism Oh, right. Thanks.
|
|
@codemonkeyism Which one?
|
|
@headius I love head hunters. They're almost like people except that I don't have to feel bad about being rude to them. It's such fun!
|
|
@mikesten Application of large quantities of alcohol to brain.
|
|
@headius Can you build me a website?
|
|
@jorgeortiz85 scala-debate that bad? ;-)
|
|
@llimllib int[] a = ["foo", "bar", "baz"] is also valid. It will just fail at runtime.
|
|
@llimllib Groovy isn't typed. It just pretends to be.
|
|
@llimllib Groovy on the other hand fills the "Java programmers heard Ruby was cool and were jealous" space. ;-)
|
|
@llimllib Common space? Not seeing it. Scala fills the "interesting statically typed OO" space.
|
|
@jorgeortiz85 The thing is, looking in from the outside Scala really does look hideously complex. Much of that is illusory, but it's there.
|
|
@jorgeortiz85 Sure. But Guido didn't read the language spec. Of course it doesn't sound like he actually read "Programming Scala" either...
|
|
@jorgeortiz85 Ahh, much better.
|
|
@al3x That's probably true. But the impression a language gives to people who have never programmed in it isn't completely unimportant. :-)
