'struth
I do think that Ruby would come up high on that again - it's remarkably readable code IMO. (And Perl would be locked in a box, wrapped in chains, and thrown into the ocean).
Doesn't mean it's perfect for every situation of course.

Good site that - I have bookmarked "ISAAC" and will be dropping it into one of my projects tomorrow.
On the other hand, since most of the reference code is in C first then translated into other languages some of the power of those other languages is lost. None of the C# examples seem to use the Task Parallel Library for example...

That's an interesting analysis; but I'm surprised that they found Java programs to be shorter than C# equivalents. Java's always felt more verbose to me, especially compared to newer version of .net. Has anyone looked at the rosettacode samples to have an idea why?
Also, the conventional wisdom is that Java's supposed to be somewhat faster to run than C#; and since I've seen that claim on an MS slide deck earlier this year (ranked languages from slow to develop but high performing to fast development but poor performing and put java between C# and C++) I'm reasonably confident about the correctness of conventional wisdom here.
Did you ever see history portrayed as an old man with a wise brow and pulseless heart, waging all things in the balance of reason?
Is not rather the genius of history like an eternal, imploring maiden, full of fire, with a burning heart and flaming soul, humanly warm and humanly beautiful?

Microsoft today launched the Microsoft Online Services Bug Bounty Program, offering security researchers rewards for submitted vulnerabilities. Coming soon: Microsoft declares bankruptcy

Ah, thank you. So glad it's not just me.
Wait, that's not really what I meant, but at least it will get fixed now.

Bug #0: I installed Windows.
Bug #1: I installed MS Office.

The free JetBrains Student License replaces the discounted Academic License for all IDEs and .NET Tools products. Just in time for back-to-school

They've not the ability for homeschool students (my kids) and teachers (moi) to be able to use these products under the education banner.
Sent 'em a request to open it to homeschooler(s) who do not have a .edu domain-based email address.

That would be an excellent addition - or you could print up a few "International Student Identity Card" for you facility

Er, we're not exactly "International" in that we're U.S.-based.
*BUT*, I am going to be teaching an Int'l student starting in 2 weeks.
Guess I'll need to make some ISIC cards after all ...
... just as long as I don't incorrectly label them ISIS or ISIL!

As it turns out, that is a very difficult question to answer. I’ll get to that, but first, let me explain why I asked the question the way I did. That has to be the longest 'dunno' I have seen (all week)

Quote: What is the value only enterprise IT can make?
Well, many large enterprises are so complex that IT provides the only meaningful model that exists of the enterprise. Certainly it is the only model that can be submitted to any form of what-if analysis. (Certainly, if the CIO is worth that exciting sounding "more money" alluded to in the article then that should be the case)

Microsoft has today confirmed via an event in France that "Windows 9", the next major version of the company's operating system is coming soon. Oh no, he didn't. Lalalala, not listening. NT4 Workstation has everything I need.

Wanna be a programmer? That shouldn’t be too hard. You can sign-up for an iterative online tutorial at a site like Codecademy or Treehouse. You can check yourself into a “coding bootcamp” for a face-to-face crash course in the ways of programming. Or you could do the old fashioned thing: buy a book or take a class at your local community college. You're looking at it (Yes, I'm a suck-up)
But seriously, I think it is

Oh the poor reviewers! Since students have to submit a solution before getting to the next step, they'll often ask in some programming forum, and later on just copy the same solution...
How many such exercises have already been solved by CP experts?

I would say not many, those kind of exercises are more answered by reputation hunters

If something has a solution... Why do we have to worry about?. If it has no solution... For what reason do we have to worry about?
Help me to understand what I'm saying, and I'll explain it better to you
Rating helpful answers is nice, but saying thanks can be even nicer.

OK, let's say CP "experts" instead of CP experts .
By the way, reputation hunters is also an euphemism; at StackOverflow, some people call them rep whores .
