This is more or less equivalent to a long used testing technique that I've commonly heard referred to as gold filing. The benefit of it is that it is very cheap to do, and it can catch even minor c...
The context A reports related process is directly reading the production operational database once about two hours. This involves reading all the data from some 70 tables which takes a couple minu...
Code blocks inside comments are hightlighted only if I'm on the comment's thread page. If I view it on the post itself (after expanding the respective thread), it's not highlighted. Example: in ...
I've written a class that allows to access dictionary entries of arbitrary dicts with appropriate string keys through attribute access syntax on an instance of the class. My questions are: Is...
This sounds like useful content to me. I defer to the community on how best to achieve that; I'm here to offer another option from the platform side, in case it's useful. Codidact support article...
I can't speak for the designers' motivations, but here are some possible reasons: It's simple. Having one tempdb for everything is likely simpler to implement and simpler to configure. It works...
This is mostly an addition to r~~'s answer which I mostly agree with. This elaborates on the "non-idiomatic" part a bit. Modern Java code doesn't have a problem using Optional. Why? Because Option...
I'm not familiar with Drupal, but I would do this with CSS Grid. One possible example looks like this: <html> <head> <style> .menu-container { display: gr...
I have a map and a new item to add to the map and a list of keys I want to attach the new item to: => m1 {:a 1 :b 2} => itm 3 => ks [:c :d :e] => m2 {:a 1 :b 2 :c 3 :d 3 :e 3} ...
The webpage example.com has an edit webpage (from which one can edit example.com itself). example.com/index.php?title=עמוד_ראשי&action=edit I want that after I click ALT+Shift+E, I would im...
The first item your selector returns is the top level arrow. hasAttribute just tells us if the attribute is present, not what the value is. So basically your condition is returning true for all ele...
Our team deals with a legacy application that relies on a rather old deployment process and infrastructure: we deploy the application on an environment very similar to the production called Clon...
With the help of a little recursion, it's straightforward to go through all text nodes and replace their contents: function replaceIn(e) { if (e.nodeType == Node.TEXT_NODE) { e.nodeValue =...
If I am not mistaken any DOM "tree" node is actually a "branch", which would be an HTML element or perhaps a CSS pseudo-element, of course. If that's true what are the different node types and esp...
To extend a bit on some points already mentioned: Regarding where to add checks on a case by case basis: If you have a static code analysis tool that can give you information about areas where pro...
I have a project Anonymised.Theme which contains XAML resource dictionaries for a theme. This is used by about a dozen applications which simply include it by merging <ResourceDictionary Source...
The problem is that the fill function is filling the array with references to the same empty array[1], and therefore modifying that array will affect every entry because all of them are actually th...
Is this a good approach? How can I improve my algorithm? Your code is correct and simple. That is good, and it may be all that is needed. You have received some responses that indicate that ...
C++ doesn't have error codes/exit codes other than return 0; / EXIT_SUCCESS / EXIT_FAILURE. The code you are getting is from the OS when your program crashes from a run-time error. -1073740940 is ...
List<T> is not observable. In other words, List<T> does not offer a mechanism through which it could signal that its content has changed. If it is possible/permissible to modify the De...
I like the idea, but more as an exercise or a demonstration what can be done with Python. I also like that the code comes with a set of test cases which are written in a way that they nicely serve...
I haven't worked in WPF for a long time, but you might try setting a new list (clone the old one and add the new element) instead of adding the element to the existing list: _demo.Value++; var ne...
I am trying to combine MVVM in WPF using Microsoft.Toolkit.MVVM. Somethings are working as expected. The text boxes bind to fields and update in both directions. The button command executes and cha...
Nothing. Or anything. Or whatever you want it to mean. As a general rule of thumb: If you explicitly exit from a program with a specific exit status, then you know the meaning, or set of mean...
From section 7.21.6.2 of this draft: [T]he result of the conversion is placed in the object pointed to by the first argument following the format argument that has not already received a conve...
