In the context of application frameworks, this means that a programmer is more inclined to “try it out” than to read its manual. Rather than trying to instruct programmers to stop this all too human habit, this paper examine ways in which documentation can be organized so that a programmer is supported in learning throu...

We aim to determine the influence of sports floorings and sports shoes on impact mechanics and performance during standardised jump tasks. Twenty-one male volunteers performed ankle jumps (four consecutive maximal bounds with very dynamic ankle movements) and multi-jumps (two consecutive maximal counter-movement jumps) on force plates using minimalist and cushioned shoes under 5 sports flooring...

He made sure we viewed with skepticism claims about (Russian) syntax made solely on the basis of current theoretical models. He subjected assumed analyses to doubt in several well-known cases where his counter-proposals were later vindicated by general changes in theory. Two well-known examples involving passivization come to mind, one general and one specific. First, Babby challenged the gener...

Syntactic processes and dependencies are normally restricted to certain domains. * This phenomenon of locality has been a central object of study for decades, and it is still relevant in the Minimalist Program, especially in connection with the idea of phases/cycles. A standard example is provided in (1), where the underscore indicates the regular surface position of the extracted whphrase, the...
