Microsoft Command Line Standard - 0 views

  • our goal is to present a consistent, composable command line user experience. Achieving that allows a user to learn a core set of concepts (syntax, naming, behaviors, etc) and then be able to translate that knowledge into working with a large set of commands. Those commands should be able to output standardized streams of data in a standardized format to allow easy composition without the burden of parsing streams of output text.

  • The biggest question left unanswered in my mind is the role state will play in software of the future.
  • The biggest question left unanswered in my mind is the role state will play in software of the future. That seems like an absurd statement, or a naïve one at the very least.  State is everywhere: The values held in memory. Data locally on disk. Data in-flight that is being sent over a network. Data stored in the cloud, including on a database, remote filesystem, etc. Certainly all of these kinds of state will continue to exist far into the future.  Data is king, and is one major factor that will drive the shift to parallel computing.  The question then is how will concurrent programs interact with this state, read and mutate it, and what isolation and synchronization mechanisms are necessary to do so?
  • Many programs have ample gratuitous dependencies, simply because of the habits we’ve grown accustomed to over 30 odd years of imperative programming.  Our education, mental models, books, best-of-breed algorithms, libraries, and languages all push us in this direction.  We like to scribble intermediary state into shared variables because it’s simple to do so and because it maps to our von Neumann model of how the computer works.
  • ...3 more annotations...
  • We need to get rid of these gratuitous dependencies.  Merely papering over them with a transaction—making them “safe”—doesn’t do anything to improve the natural parallelism that a program contains.  It just ensures it doesn’t crash.  Sure, that’s plenty important, but providing programming models and patterns to eliminate the gratuitous dependencies also achieves the goal of not crashing but with the added benefit of actually improving scalability too.  Transactions have worked so well in enabling automatic parallelism in databases because the basic model itself (without transactions) already implies natural isolation among queries.  Transactions break down and scalability suffers for programs that aren’t architected in this way.  We should learn from the experience of the database community in this regard
  • There will always be hidden mutation of shared state inside lower level system components.  These are often called “benevolent side-effects,” thanks to Hoare, and apply to things like lazy initialization and memorization caches.  These will be done by concurrency ninjas who understand locks.  And their effects will be isolated by convention.
  • Even with all of this support, we’d be left with an ecosystem of libraries like the .NET Framework itself which have been built atop a fundamentally mutable and imperative system.  The path forward here is less clear to me, although having the ability to retain a mutable model within pockets of guaranteed isolation certainly makes me think the libraries are salvageable.  Thankfully, the shift will likely be very gradual, and the pieces that pose substantial problems can be rewritten in place incrementally over time.  But we need the fundamental language and type system support first.

Dr. Dobb's | Q&A: When Mobility and Open Source Collide | March 28, 2009 - 0 views

  • The web browser is a good example, on a pc it may make sense to ask a user to find, click, type, and browse the web or look for a service. In a mobile, converged product, you need to help the user be present with the service even or especially when they are driving or have the product in a pocket or handbag, and requiring them to constantly select 'yes' or to type in forms etc. are real headaches for a consumer.
  • We will not provide a store front, but will help the community create multiple online stores from which they can generate revenue for themselves and the developer.
  • At the other end of the spectrum, you see hoards of teenagers in the U.S., Europe and Asia happily texting one handed, using predictive text.

      No: they do NOT use predictive text - we 40 somethings might - but the kids uset text speak. How does a kid text rom an iPhone in his pocket?

Stevey's Blog Rants: Execution in the Kingdom of Nouns - 2006 - 0 views

  • For the lack of a horseshoe, EquestrianDoctor.getLocalInstance().getHorseDispatcher().shoot();
  • the stories all take a definite shape: object construction is the dominant type of expression, with a manager for each abstraction and a run() method for each manager. With a little experience at this kind of conceptual modeling, Java citizens realize they can express any story in this style.
  •  
    The nursery rhyme looks familiar, but how realistic is it? Smalltalk and Self appear at first glance to be in danger of this kind of horror, especially Smalltalk where every object has a class, yet a Smalltalk statement consists largely of verbs. Yegge seems to have missed an important detail in his analogy - verbs are not functions - they are symbols (selectors) that resolve to a function (method) when they are looked up (depending on ... whatever - Smalltalk the class of the receiver, CLOS the types of the arguments and so on). C and FORTRAN don't have verbs, they just have functions (actions).
