Interesting that this chart gives C# as a precursor to Java v5.0... I mean, generics and a neat shortcut for 'for loops' existed in plenty of other languages...
... Coincidentally enough, my bro-in-law just mentioned interest in it the other night. He's fascinated with the concept of self-modifying code, such as by...
Ahhh, it was nice to LISP in there...excellent programming language to give you gray hair......

Hi, I have been using jstl fmt tags to format currency and date values in my jsp code. My colleagues want me to remove this code and move it to the Java...
... Modern languages that (I'm told) employ this pervasively are Factor and Joy. They're on my to-check-out-one-day list. And yeah, I was weirded out by a...
Prabhakar, Your colleagues are right. If you look at JSF, you will find out that it is the same design pattern that was used. You use the backing bean to do...
well.. i would say the colleagues are incorrect (as usual;) formatting should be in the view component(jsp/jstl) and the bean should hold only the data and no...
depends on how important you think it is to design for things that *might* happen, and how likely the change in UI platform is. It is all too common for...
I have two copies of paperback editions of "The SNOBOL 4 programming language" by Griswold, Poage, & Polonski. I pull it out and thumb through it every once in...
Hi, I'm working with reasonably large projects (2000-3000 classes) and Eclipse 3.1 is taking terribly long times to do builds. The compile itself isn't the...

In reading the Ruby vs. LISP rant (where he has some good points) I find it ironic that he is bashing all of the shaky scripting languages compared to LISP,...
Good point Brian. No sense in bashing any programming language as they all have their purpose. It's up to the engineer to use the right tool for the job. ...

Jonathan, I've worked with JSF for a awhile now, and would suggest the opposite of what you recommend below. If I wanted to display a currency value in a JSF...
Scott, You are right and wrong. If you are addressing only one view type your argument will hold but if you are thinking of different views for the same base...
Sounds to me like a case of non-commitalism (on the part of the people who made the original request). "Better just move all the HTML out of the JSP too --...
Jonathan, Understood. I was mainly taking issue with your comments on JSF, which is why I repied to your message rather than Prabhakar's. Specifically, I...
Jonathan, I agree that putting the formatting logic in the backing bean makes it easier to use the same java code to support multiple views. However we still...
