Data structure for accessing units of measure @GlenH7 I believe you're right: Important: Units of measure look like a data type, but they aren't. .NET's type system does not support the behaviors that units of measure have, such as being able to square, divide, or raise datatypes to powers. This functionality is provided by the F# static type checker at compile time, **but units are erased from compiled code**. Consequently, it is not possible to determine value's unit at runtime. |

What is a good analogy to explain how software development is different than building a bridge? My friend's professor once asked his class what the difference was between building a software application and building a bridge; one of the answers was: You can't jump off software when you're done building it. |

Why do most java classes end with “ers”? Also interesting: objology.blogspot.com/2011/09/… (read the comments too) |

How do you keep logins organized between multiple developers? We use KeePass in our small development team, and it works pretty well; it supports multiple databases so if you have different levels of access you could create multiple database files, each with their own master access password. We sync databases w/ SVN, so that's another potential layer of security (i.e. repository access). |

What are the practical benefits of LISP like syntax which Clojure uses over Java like syntax of Scala? @tieTYT Right, since with OOP you have little bundles of state all over the place. You can use stuff like Command-Query Separation though to help know when you will cause side effects. |

Programming Discrete Wavelet Transform Btw, you might try asking this question on (or rather asking for it to be migrated to) the DSP stackexchange site |

What can a technically proficient senior software developer study to keep improving +1 for paradigm -- I had been doing OOP/procedural for ~10 years (and getting tired of it) and then I started learning functional programming and my eyes were opened to a whole new world. |

Leaving “Else” comments Apparently I don't use else comments as much as I thought: out of 3kloc, I only found 2 (in the same function). |

Print fixed width list sorted by column This does seem like the sort of problem that someone would have come up with a clever solution to. Mine was only off the top of my head. I hope you do find a smart(er) way to do this! |
