• Kinesis Freestyle (Terrible key switches. Mushy and un-lovable)

• Kinesis Freestyle Edge (Traditional layout with too many keys, mech switches, proably too big to be tented easily/properly)

• Matias Ergo Pro (Looks pretty great. Have not tried.)

• ErgoDox Kit (Currently, my everyday keyboard. Can buy pre-assembled on eBay.)

• ErgoDox EZ (Prolly the best option for most people.)

A monad is a fancy word for a generic type of the form MyMonad<T> (a generic type of arity 1).

A monad is special because it adds 'special powers' to the T that it wraps. These 'special powers' won't sound very special to an imperative programmer, so you have to squint to see them but bear with me.

• IEnumerable<T> is a monad that gives values of type T the special power of nondeterminism, or the ability to 'be' multiple values at once.
• Nullable<T> is a monad that gives values of type T the special power of nullability, or the ability to be absent.
• Task<T> is a monad that gives values of type T the special power of asynchronicity, or the ability to be used before they are computed.

The trick with monads comes when you want to play with the T values, because they are inside another type. C# introduced language changes to make dealing with values inside these monads easier:

Let's solve the following physics problem using Symbolism, a computer algebra library for C#.

One strategy in a snowball fight is to throw a first snowball at a high angle over level ground. While your opponent is watching the first one, you throw a second one at a low angle and timed to arrive at your opponent before or at the same time as the first one.

Assume both snowballs are thrown with a speed of 25.0 m/s.

The first one is thrown at an angle of 70.0° with respect to the horizontal.

Setting up p4merge as diff and merge tool on Windows. Tried for Git version 1.8.4.msysgit.0.

Two alternatives are explained: using the command line, and directly editing the config file.

Setting up from the command line

Being the installation path "C:Program Files\Perforce\p4merge.exe", just run:

$ git config --global diff.tool p4merge
