I find their approach of end-to-end machine learning absolutely fascinating. Since the video is very long, I'll explain the gist: instead of the traditional approach of labelling everything in the scene using neural nets and then tryin

I believe that comment was directed towards posts about price fluctuation of existing public companies, while this post is about the company going public. Previous listing posts have led to substantive discussion in my experience. Disclaime

I remember from very old PHP days that the default http client everyone reached for in PHP land was curl: https://www.php.net/manual/en/book.curl.php . I don't doubt that this is the case for many other older

Wow, I didn't realise it's the same guy. Kitty truly is a terrific piece of software, and it seems Kovid is also a terrific product engineer.

In my experience it has better reliability and quality, to the point where I haven't had to worry about it.

It's only working for large, existing players, is his point. For me wanting to build automatic syncing to my budget tools, I'm still out of luck. They don't even let you access your own data.

Amazing, am doing the same, also chose prolog for day 4. Ended up with quite different code though: https://uku.dev/posts/advent-of-languages-day-4-prolog

I really recommend rebinding caps lock to escape. macOS lets you do that natively in keyboard setting nowadays. Still muscle memory to relearn, of course.

The small <-> agile thing is very real. I've seen it take very little time (2-5y after conception) for big ideas to be implemented in reality, countrywide, whereas doing it somewhere like the US would be next to impossible.

I get that this is a meme, but v8 is one of the most battle-hardened runtimes out there, plus you don't manage your own memory or concurrency primitives, which are the sources of most security issues.

This is actually what is done, you can download a phone app for iOS or Android, where you can scan a QR code you see when you vote to verify your vote. A vote can be checked after i-voting for up to three times during half an hour. Further

This is actually great news. Shows that one of the most important leaders in tech is actually capable of introspection , admitting fault and changing their ways, even after many years, without a massive public scandal. Massive kudos, Linus.

Cool project and am glad to see RethinkDB getting some love, a couple questions, specifically about the hardware, came to mind: Do you order the hardware and then place it wherever you like, or do you guys set it up? How does shipping it wo

As far as i know, even though it was the hype at the time, angular 1's traction was not quite that of react's. All of the FB family (messenger, instagram, fb etc), including the apps are on it. AirBnB is on it (including the apps)

As always, my main concern with this is traction. Will this be well supported, with a good community, 4 years down the line? I know React will, just because of the massive amounts of business depending on it. When building something real, i

Quite a cool product, and i'd like to commend you on your landing page. Looks cool and conveys all the information i'm looking for.

This doesn't seem terribly constructive.

I wouldn't say it is. For the past couple of years i've been using heavy IDEs (jetbrains stuff) for very verbose languages like java, and lightweight ones for more concise languages like js or haskell. Learning multiple IDE-s can

Lots of KYC things, like fraud, AML and CTF. Helps with finding new patterns.

There's no need unless you need runtime-only concepts, like new string methods. Use https://babeljs.io/ to turn nice es6 into es5. (I imagine you already know this, if you're using react/jsx)

For anyone who wants to use ES6 in production, https://babeljs.io/ is amazing.

Common misconception, const only disallows reassignment. For instance, const number = 1337; number = 10; // fails But objects/arrays are not immutable in js, so you can do this: const person = { name: 'Dude' }; pers
