Why going for CSS as a syntactical starting point, if it is to change it so fundamentally that no IDE or existing tools will be able to handle it, and if it is to move away from its "theoretical" purpose of describing style indepe

Was about to write this exactly. Keep the lifecycle management in a dedicated component. Unsafe seems vastly overkill for dealing with this use case. I'm even having a hard time seeing how this could be slower than any other alternativ

I make a difference between what FB customers pay for promises of brain time, and what the service FB provides actually is worth for _me_ (people are no customers of FB). $40/month/user might be what FB get from their customers.

They weren't making money, were they? I guess it depends what you mean by Evil. Force-pushing ads and sharing updates about people you don't know because it could keep you connected so that you could see more ads, made them profit

Probably the money that FB "generates" is literally insane, and doesn't make sense for a single company to generate. Possibly a mastodon based solution where users pay a small recurring fee for server management and some R&am

Oh fully agreed; SolidWorks is much more an exception than the norm here.

I'm curious here: what got better in GitHub since the acquisition? It's a genuine question, I'm not being sarcastic, I really don't understand the statement (which seems to be shared by several people here). I honestly c

I see it this way: the EU may choose whatever way it wants to compute a fine -- they are making the law, they could have written a fixed amount, or an amount based on revenue made in the EU (which is probably a pain to define and certainly

Following a slightly different path, "Modern compiler implementation" goes over several topics mentioned in the review (lexing, parsing, type checking, code optimization and generation, runtime environments aspects e.g. garbage co

I discovered a few years ago that thanks to this kind of "experience", forced hypothermia is now used to prevent brain damage to new borns who suffered from loss of oxygen during delivery. Our second son was (initially, thankfully

Surprisingly, one "language" actually fits pretty well (most of) your requirements: SQL :)

In golang, everything is recompiled from source into a single standalone binary. There is no concept of shareable precompiled library -- a library is to be reused from its source code. In that world, calling conventions is not something con

Discussing about the effort required for each task/story, is crucial to generate alignment within a team, determine better the scope of a task/story -- and decompose it, if it appears that the effort would be so big that tracking

This article/study is all and only about "pain modulation". Is it to say that there is only one placebo effect, which is always reducing pain? Aren't there placebo effects going "beyond" pain relieving? (Or is

Taking a step back; this website is a piece of Art. Its message stirs passions, it is written in the very formalism it talks about, and presented in a so unusually cumbersome way that it triggers the same kind of response (or questions) a

Hi! Yes! Nice article (articles actually). I realize you are hinting at it as the subject of a later article, but could you share with us a little bit more about single-stage-filtering :D ? how does it work? How can metadata and vector data

The HP Prime does have an RPN mode. I bought it recently, for that very feature, when my HP48 died. The keyboard of the HP Prime isn't really optimized for it (some trivial operations on the stack require key combinations, while on the

This post is interesting only as an example of a total lack of facts, comparisons, and perspective. The lone backing of each opinion is the adverb "generally". There is no mention of any concrete team/company size where issue

Conda works with a different, parallel ecosystem, whose main source of packages is managed by a single company (Anaconda Inc). That company validates, rebuilds, and possibly silently patches code, to provide their own packages. pipenv bring

What a clickbait indeed. The end version is still eating 3 times more memory, but the worst is that it just doesn't work in the general case. The way I generally use "wc" is inside a somewhat complex command line, with comman

Well, the problem is precisely that rounding as it is generally conceived, is expressed in base 10 - as we generally conceive numbers including floating point ones in base 10. Yet at the lowest level, the representation of numbers is in bas

Seconded. I would add "Structured Computer Organization", as a preamble book. I read both as if they were novels - they really are interesting and written in such a way that can hook you just as a good story

I am probably missing something here. Isn't the article just rediscovering what a scanner is? Wasn't this resolved eons ago by scanner generators like flex?
