I've been doing a little personal app in Java, and recently found out that generics in Java erase type information so generics would have retro-compatibility (or at least it's what I learnt from reading this post). I can’t deny that I don’t understand the idea and the drawbacks aren’t much but what’s the meaning of doing something halfway. I was just trying to get the type of a generic variable. I don’t think that this was the only option but probably was the easiest.

#20. Sorry tumblr, ifttt rules
I’ve been thinking of changing the blog to try another blog management site, currently I don’t want to host it myself so one of my options was tumblr, it’s a simple and easy to manage blogging site but as I was going to try couldn’t use windows live writer with it, searching for a solution found out that they don’t use a standard API, so I won’t be using their site directly, I’ll probably use ifttt a service to post indirectly through conditions.
