It is something we take for granted in every time we run a .NET program, but it turns out that loading a Type or class is a fairly complex process. "I wanna get back to Basics, just take it slow"

Dammit, I even searched for it. Although, perhaps he loaded the article on CP after his blog?
Bother, and it was such a nice article.

Yeah, probably after. It came up for approval a couple of hours ago. That's the only reason I noticed.

Developers who use tabs to indent their code, developers who fight for truth and justice and all that is good in the world, those developers have a median salary of $43,750. They're also better looking, and have bigger hard drives
Or need them, anyway.

Either that, or correlation can be conflated with causation for comedic effect.

Sadly, Charles P. Thacker passed away on June 12.
Hardware designer for the Alto, the first computer designed from the ground up to support a GUI, introducing the WIMP (Windows, Icons, Mouse and Pointers), Wysiwyg, and many other paradigms. ACM Turing Award Winner - for this, and contributions to the Ethernet and Tablet computing.
Too many people are described as pioneers of computing who were imitators (Steve Jobs - I'm looking at you). This one was the real thing.

I remember the review of the Xerox Alto in the Sep '81 Byte. It "only" cost US $32,000!

Unless I'm much mistaken, Photo 8 looks like it may even be the first Multiplayer First Person game too. That's one innovation I'd not heard of before.

Despite frequent talk of tension between software development and security teams, it turns out more than half of organizations surveyed have these two groups collaborating. "Warriors, come out to play-i-ay."

The decline is modest but notable: About 49 percent of developers entering the workforce now have an undergraduate CS degree, while about 55 percent of developers that have been in the workforce for 10 or more years have the degree. Soon only a few of the noble beasts will roam their native habitat

The theory is important even to those of us labouring in the salt mines. Complexity, set theory, data structures, multithreading, etc. are all important. Over the last 30 years, all of those subjects (and many more) have come up in my work.
