Yeah, or another way of splitting up huge models files is to convert models from a module to a package by making a directory models and adding models/__init__.py, models/foo_models.py, models/bar_models.py then doing from .fo

I agree that being under the GNU isn't necessarily good for projects. Look at https://savannah.gnu.org/bugs/?group=octave for example. Many of these patches have in fact been merged, but nobody really knows how to

I guess at least some of these types of companies are consultancy companies disguised as product companies? If that's the case they might not be affected too badly.

How about Reddit? That's a site that's undergone a number of UI changes and I'm pretty sure even now still has <30 engineers. It had around 6 in 2012 I believe.

Honestly I've always just thought of Monads as-in Haskell as a tricky way of sequencing in the presence of lazy evaluation. Looked at this way, the "trick" is to make a data dependency between each step in the form of an argu

My guess is people are afraid they're going to end up with difficult to debug edge case type bugs and have to sink loads of time into it beyond the standard porting steps.

If you're doing reports you could run them against a read-only slave.

Black money is money that has been obtained illegally but not yet laundered. If you're caught with a lot of money and don't have a good reason why you have it, well the authorities are presumably going to start looking for a bad r

Well the linked page and videos explain the benefits of the current release pretty well. They should take less than 30 minutes to view. I think part of the reason they use ambiguous language is they see this programming language as the firs
