Good morning movie liners! Did you forget it was Thursday? Brain still think it’s Wednesday? Mine certainly did.
Here’s the line, good luck.
Ok, quick, what movie! Send your guesses here.
golang.org: “You should never put the opening brace of a control structure (if, for, switch, or select) on the next line. If you do, a semicolon will be inserted before the brace, which could cause unwanted effects. Write them like this”
Go should be easy for C/C++/Objective-C developers to pick up but why in the world would you make it retarded from the get go? Who’s screwball idea was it to require the opening brace to be on the same line? It’s like we’re coding in COBOL again. Oh, that’s right, Google is big into Python. I forgot.
I still find it odd that people stick to K&R style.
Mike Davidson: “Résumé? Doesn’t matter. Where you went to school? Doesn’t matter. What societies you are a part of? Doesn’t matter. None of this sort of stuff matters unless and until you make it past the big three tests above… or at least the first two. Does that mean you shouldn’t spend time on your résumé? Of course you should, because if you get past the first stage, someone will probably look at it.”
I’m a Designer, not a Writer man! At least that’s how Bones would say it.
Interesting advice. Best to have the resume in good shape so you can get past HR, then you gotta show your design chops.
Gigaom: “Again, Android is far from perfect, but it offers developers some pleasantries that iOS, and more to the point, Apple, doesn’t provide. Android development is done in Java, as opposed to Apple’s once-obscure Objective C. Java may be old-school, but it’s still a primary development platform for a wide swath of developers, particularly in enterprise IT, which does a great deal of the world’s application development.”
Wow, you’re selling Java as a good reason to switch to Android? Strike one, two, and three. Java? Really? I’d rather use Go to be perfectly honest, or how about C#/.NET (via Mono), that would go a long way toward selling the platform for me. Ok, ok, Java isn’t really that bad, but there are better choices today.
I also love that you mention Joe Hewitt, I’m sure Joe is a nice guy, but he has a strange sense of what “Big Brother” means. Doesn’t he work for Facebook? The worlds biggest “Big Brother.”
Seriously, no offense to Joe, I just don’t agree with him, that’s all. I love the iOS platform and wish I could make a living doing nothing but applications for it. In fact, I’d jump at the chance. Mobile is too much fun!
Good morning, we have a winner!
Congratulations to Mr. Layne Lev, who correctly guessed…
See you next Thursday.
Good morning movie loving people! Here’s the line, good luck!
