     It also might make refactoring more stable because if you might change that function to return a more special or a more broad type then there is a high chance that the code will still compile and work.

    Ooooh! That actually makes sense and sounds sweet! I take back everything I said.


  2. Could someone please explain the benefit of type inference in a programming language that showcases type safety? As soon as the compiler has to guess a type, and my be wrong, this could result in C-like problems later on. I have made my peace with inline variables (yes, I am quick at giving up), but this feature seems a bit too "over the top" bait for non Delphi developers. I mean, this too can be ignored, but with a team big enough, it just find it's way into code nevertheless.

  4. At first glance, I believe the star highlights streams... erm, threads you have posted in.

     

    Edith says the dot lets you reach the last unread entry. It will not appear, if everything in that thread is read. I use FF as well and saw one or two dots in the stream.
