Same thing here. At work I can see the history going back to 1995. And that's after migrating from something to Mercurial, and from Mercurial to git. Maybe that's not the case in all companies, but in the one I work at, the commit

I get carsick a lot when reading and I can confirm that not reading and looking outside helps. Another thing: if you are on a train, make sure to be facing the direction where the train is going (just like you would be in a car). I'm n

I think promises are a inner platform in Rust and JS, due to the function coloring problem. They are a different world that you can't escape from. In the async book from Rust [1]: > Asynchronous and synchronous code cannot always be

I personally prefer Go's handling of async too. I'm not sure if I would call it superior, because from what I understand monadic async has its uses, especially when you don't have a runtime. But for the kind of programming th

I hope that this is temporary to make working on the project easier, Go can get pretty close to C in terms of speed and it's usually easier to jump into a Go project. But 10 times slower seems way too much.

That's interesting, I always found Go's handling of asynchronous stuff way better than other languages, especially the ones that relies on async.

An example of a concrete usage of parser combinators and their performance: OCaml's http/af library [1] is a web server that uses parser combinators to implement HTTP 1.1. As for the performance, it's in the ballpark of Go&#x

Thank you for the clarification. So if I understood correctly, distributing independant jobs that use async IO between core is okay? For example, I recently wrote a program that reads all the files in a folder, calculates a hash of their co

I've searched a bit for this and haven't been able to find a good answer. Let's say that I have m tasks that I want to run concurrently on n cores, for example handling HTTP requests or searching for something in files. I

So Lottie would be the video equivalent of the SVG format, in a way? That sounds like something that should/will be supported natively at some point.

I'm not sure that it's premature. We use categories all the time, the time when they fail us seem to be rare in proportion.

A good reminder that the map is not the territory. Lately I've started to see more and more "categories" in general as a very human construct, probably made to save on processing power when thinking about things. Reality is h

There is, I think, one thing missing: a comprehensive test suite that checks all the possible edge cases. Edit: as you can see below, the benchmark also checks for correctness so you can disregard this.

There's a subreddit called "unixporn", and frequent desktop threads on 4chan's /g/ that are mostly like that, though usually it's more about tiling window managers and minimalism than Standford ML.

You could take a look at either Rust or OCaml, Swift feels like it's between the two.
