If Mozilla could maintain and develop Firefox then they can also maintain/develop a complex Chromium fork.

Some developers just put some hard mental restrictions on themselves.

You don't have to throw out the baby with the bathwater. You can still use AWS firewall, RDS, S3 and ELB with a VM/EC2 instance.

Don't disagree with you but two things: 1. Clojure doesn't have as good interop as Kotlin. 2. For some heavy interop projects, it's simpler to write the thing Java.

Note that we are using Server-Side Blazor, so this approach works for us. I do not think it works with WASM (at least out of the box), but we do not care for this form of Blazor hosting right now, so its not a concern for us. Hmm interest

Clojure is nice for heavy data engineering projects that require robust/stable/mature tech like the JVM. But for a full stack language for a web app it just adds a tons of complexity over just using JS. In Clojurescript interactin

Would you classify that book as good introduction to discrete math?

Electron is still the best cross platform toolkit when you need browser support too. Agree, just though it was too much for something simple as displaying logins/pass but looks like it has lots of features?
672.
by Scarbutt 6y ago
Yes. Not against Electron but maybe I'm underestimating the ui/ux complexity of a password manager since I have never use one.
673.
by Scarbutt 6y ago
But why a whole electron app just to store passwords?

Apple today also announced that its 21.5-inch iMac will come standard with SSDs across the line for the first time. I wonder what took them so long.

They do remember and recognize you. I'm sure of that! Don't want to rob you from that emotion but Swifts can't live for 30 years.

I hit this bug: https://docs.datomic.com/on-prem/changes.html#0.9.6021 Not being able to perform writes to your database is not scary enough? it's funny how they phrased that bug. Also hit 4-5 more that are there

Idiomatic Clojure is slower than JS, but you can make Clojure somewhat close to Java by writing Java with parenthesis(lots of interop from Clojure). One of the devs of Datomic brag about how it was only 200KLOC of Clojure, but if you extrac

Yes, and that's exactly why Nubank acquired Cognitect. They are too deep into the tech to migrate to something else, cheaper to just buy the authors. So you have deep technical debt with serious scaling issues and bugs everywhere(Datom

They seem to be recreating turbolinks ever couple of years heh.

Yeah, seems like a cultish thing to say.

The "cascade" was, for sure, a mistake. FWIW, tailwind solves this problem (in a tedious way).

He indirectly recognized the importance of declaring the shape of data 6 years later by introducing spec, which to date still has big issues and screams "just use a proper statically typed language".

by Scarbutt 6y ago
Yeah, no way that's true if his python and clojure knowledge are at the same level. That tweet sounds like what you see on r/clojure all the time, a cult.

Curious, what kind of deficiencies do you think 5x5 has?

by Scarbutt 6y ago
There's still the audio problem.

Yes, the problem is too many skip the tests because "they already tested at the REPL".
687.
by Scarbutt 6y ago
Because it's no different than running tests in a language with a fast code/run cycle. Clojure by necessity, needs to have a REPL, without one it would be unusable. The reason: Clojure startup time is pretty bad.

I have seen this being asked many times in /r/rust and 90% of the answers disagree with you. A common theme is to explore in Python then rewrite in Rust.
