JUST IN: 🇨🇳🇪🇺 China and European Union in talks to abolish EU tariffs on Chinese electric vehicles.

China is gonna get a 500% tariff after this impression. 🤣

For single-purpose functions with no need for long term support, visual programming works. For complex applications requiring multiple developers, source control, debugging & other language features which VP in unable to offer, it doesn't work. youtube.com/shorts/jv-RpSb…

They should actually teach this in biz school

Made a video about the Shunting Yard Algorithm - its a nice opener to tinkering about with creating basic programming languages! youtu.be/unh6aK8WMwM

@alvpickmans Good point, although its not an issue in the context where its used. I prefer A as its more readable and requires no cognition. B uses negative conditionals and requires fractionally more time to comprehend which can impact on cognitive loads over a large codebase.

Which is better: A or B?

@johntpierson Its subjective of course, but IMO code readability over code brevity.

@Thomas__Mahon What is considered better in this case? more readable or more performant?

@onBIMTechnology @johntpierson Very true.

@johntpierson @Thomas__Mahon One senior dev that I follow says one day: "Today we write code to other people, not for computers". For Revit and AutoCAD development, in most of cases performance it's not a major concern.

@teocomi @SpeckleSystems Next year 😉

#SpeckleCon is over, and I'm blown away by the enthusiasm and positive reactions so far! Here are some of my favorite quotes from the past two days 🤩. Thanks to all the people who made this possible! ❤️
