anyone know a good way to iterate over values of a Map without creating garbage ?

Can someone explain the value of collection literals? I sincerely don't understand why listOf(), mapOf(), Pairs, and other existing utilities don't do the job effectively enough for some folks.

Nothing, I was just replying to @poohbar. I think you mean @rakshit

Kotlin 102 is a good video, let me find the link …

Yeah, books are good, but is there one for Kotlin already ?

What are your guys opinions on Vert.x? And what about Eclipse Che? I’ve never used either one, but I’ve heard good things about them.

can i make builder for static class?

`LengthOfInput`… We should probably stop calling Kotlin an object-oriented language 😄 www.yegor256.com/2017/06/22/object-oriented-input-output-in-cactoos.html

And then...

There is no "copy" operation in pure OOP

Parse http request, transform it to a request to SQL, entities, ORMs, models, serializers, everyone is busy. Then get it all the way back! SQL to entities, entities to business objects, objects to JSONs, jsons to chunked http, chunks into tcp packets and all way back to client. And, surprise!, on a client we are doing all the way back again.

Totally random question. I want to build a simple static website. What is the nicest tech to use? I don't want to use any premade solutions because that's no fun but I also don't want to write plain HTML+CSS.

spinning up JVM to spit out some HTML? talk about overkill haha 😄

Hi everybody, nice to meet you. Is there official Slack channel for Kotlin Language?

typealias public = String
public fun public(public: public): public = public(public)

fun main(args: Array<String>) {
   println(public("public"))   
}

in try.kotlin.org prints out:

error :

why empty error and why this even compiles? 🙂

Hey guys, is there a way to move these folders into a different drive ? my SSD is too small

Just a moment ago reading “Higher Kinded Types”, and thinking “oh, again a K-word for something Kotlin” 😆

Naming things is hard.... I was tempted to name a class (Something)Enlarger ähem I think i will go with Enhancer

Can anyone suggest learnxinyminutes-like guide for grails?

Does it work if I go here instead ? https://www.google.com/maps/place/63-220+Kotlin,+Poland/@51.9159379,17.6344794,14z/data=!3m1!4b1!4m5!3m4!1s0x47052f8612d4b921:0x52a238ef1b2b64e2!8m2!3d51.9191186!4d17.64782 😉

I might be giving a talk on Kotlin at my company's tech conference, and I'd like to get my hands on some swag (maybe some Kotlin and/or JB stickers or something like that). Can anyone recommend where I can buy some of them without resorting to one of those sites that blatantly steals logos and puts them on everything?

dear friends hi, any suggestion for learning android development with kotlin?

is it possible to use typealias in java code?

Hi Andrew, Kotlin is a new language that JetBreins (Intelli J owner) made in order to have an alternative in functional language and complete compatible with Virtual Machine, so this run as Java on same place, so Java still being a powerful language and independent, I assume still growing in time and maybe continue being best language or not, feature tell us which one is better. For example Google in Android is adopting Kotlin as future language, but still continue working with Java and still posting articles about other languages they are thinking in use to make mobile app, so...... just want to wait and learn kotlin or not is our own decision.

Want to put in a request to have #javascript channel renamed to kotlin-js. Name of the channel as it stands is VERY confusing, is it JavaScript, web front-end, or Kotlin JS platform ❔ 😕 Also I would like to propose a new channel called web 🕸️ which covers anything to do with Kotlin and the web (excludes Kotlin JS platform). As an example when discussing Vaadin (front-end web framework) it doesn't fit into #javascript but would fit into the web channel if it existed.

This is an Android Kotlin Introduction from French riviera 🙂

@evanchooly Suppressing your Java habits takes some effort and time, but this is good at the end. You should place multiple files together where you’d have nested them in Java or where you’d used package-private.

I've been trying orms/sqlwrappers for 3 hours and i dont like any of them 😞 feelsbadman
