"Good enough" would be fine, but Apple hardware is no longer worth the premium price. After owning Apple laptops since 2003 (my Powerbook still runs great) when my wife's 13" MBP finally kicked the bucket last week I gave her my 15" i7 MBP (totally good enough) and bought a Dell 9570 for $1000 less than a "good enough" 15" Mac.
Apple is flat-footed in this space. Good enough is fine but the prices should reflect that. All they care about is the phone ecosystem.
I like functional composition, it certainly has its uses (at least as middleware). I disagree with the notion that it makes code more readable though, in general. It only makes code more readable if you're familiar with it (functional programming).
Ive become convinced the best developer environment is 100% remote. Corporate IT is so out of touch with network/application development they can't possibly help or do anything but hinder...
I have to say it: I've been running Win7 Pro in a VM for 3 years now and it is, indeed, a stable desktop. I wish MS (Ballmer, prick) didn't screw it up and leave it behind. Our POS requires a Windows backend and Win7 is fine.
Running on a Debian host, of course. Still, not a bad desktop OS at all.
It gives you plenty of information and tool descriptions to test your own setups as you put them together. This, to me, was always the hardest part. Building LibreSSL fro source for the hell of it is also useful if for no other reason than getting the updated man pages. Just sayin'.
This book + wireshark = very, very informative, esp. if your background is in hardware design and not networking...
So if you're sharing your wi-fi with the public at large and someone commits an "Internet Nasty" while connected via your router - who is criminally liable?
Yeah I've seen that stuff. It's spendy. I have been meaning to try it in a pilot batch, though. I wasn't aware it pushed below 20 ppm. THAT is news. Thanks!
"(There are now innovations in the mashing process that can remove most of the gluten from a full barley grain bill, so it's no longer necessary to resort to sorghum!)"
As a professional brewer this is news to me. I would love to see this point expanded upon.

Take it back - hpe.com .....
HP-UX and the 9000s don't even seem to be available via hp.com. Haven't seen them there in a long, long time.

Meh. Pymssql works pretty well. Am I missing something?
... the 50,000 Accenture employees that are actually paying attention just shat their pants...

Fix the problem, promptly.
Golang has been like a breath of fresh air. Just saying. Great for server side work.
Once again a question is asked about a golang IDE and LiteIDE is not mentioned. I personally think it rocks for go dev work.

Gentlemen,
I've really enjoyed Mark Summerfield's book (http://www.qtrac.eu/gobook.html). I keep it with me. I am seriously considering purchasing yours as well.
Should I?
Thanks.
Sorry, was late last night. LiteIDE is a go-centric ide with lots of great hooks for that language. I run it on Linux, OSX and Win10.

Check out LiteIDE.

We need to get Michael Moorcock on the red courtesy phone in the lobby - stat!

$100 / day, paid in full by google, direct deposit, and I'll wear a stupid fucking smart watch.
I don't have to use it, do I?
PS: I already wear a watch.

Speaking strictly as a small brewer (7 BBL) this would put us out of business. To be honest I think we seem to have pushed it back for now.
Too bad that IBM is long, long gone.
It will probably be several thousand years before home sapiens no linger needs plumbers. Or at least plumbing robots.
