Why, Sun, why?


If java.util.LinkedList has a toArray() method, why doesn't it have a fromArray() method?  The number of times I've needed to do this honestly does upgrade it from a method-I-should-have-write-myself-in-every-project to a this-is-completely-intuitive-and-easy-and-should-be-done-for-me level. 

... Besides, if Python has it, why can't Java?  :-P

iPhoto and the rapid death I wish upon Apple

Seriously, Apple?  You're going to hide people's iPhoto libraries in a package?  Sure, it hides the great big pile of shit that you call an organizational scheme.  But it also hides anyone's photos from an uploading tool--I guess, that is, besides ones built into iPhoto.

No, really, Apple.  Fuck you in the face, you horrible, horrible people.  I can't wait until Google makes an OS and kicks your asses.

Oh Google

So, apparently, the internet is full of noobs.



I will grant that my question "does Java pass by reference or pass by value" was among those, but only if you grant that it was easily the most nuanced question up there.
