Typescript won because Microsoft shipped vscode with out of the box TS integration that just worked. This is touched on in the article but understated. They used the exact same approach as visual studio and .NET, and managed to eat up the e

I've used beanstalkd for personal projects previously with a similar experience to you. For one such project, the message 'priority' feature was a life saver and a feature that is not super common in competing solutions.

Reread OP. This is not what they are trying to convey. They are saying that taking psychedelics can provide a similar breakthrough like awakening after resolving trauma.

They're different concepts with different ways of being expressed in OCaml. In this case it truly is a Product and if you want to reuse a field name you'll need to enclose that type in a module. Row polymorphic -- "thing with

It's great that they're getting reductions of this magnitude for watercraft, this should absolutely continue. But it is damning for electric cars. The tailpipe emissions (measured in this article) that are reduced by going electri

Electric cars don't reduce emissions from tyre and brake wear. These particles make up a huge amount of air pollution at a size small enough to cause health issues. Once they settle, they are swept into waterways and form the majority

What happens with this code when err isn't recoverable? you can manage it a few ways in Elixir, struct matching is one: def perform(param) do res = case get_resource(param) do {:ok, val} -> val {:error,

Ecto is one of the very best things about elixir from my perspective. It seems bizarre that anyone would have this great tool uniquely available to their language and want to ignore it.

It's true. Australia just had a federal election, and re-elected a party running on an anti green, pro-coal energy strategy. Voting here is compulsory

Original roadways were lobbied for and paid by cyclists. There's no chance that humans would go back to carriages as a realistic transport method. Shouldn't we be comparing against electric bicycles and public transport networks?

by arthurbrown 9y ago
Totally valid. And yet imagine how much more effectively emergency responders could operate if they didn't need to compete with the general public given there were better alternate transport modes.

The amount of death we accept as a society just for the convenience of automobile travel astounds me. It's been normalised at this point, but surely at some time there was an outcry -- at least in the Netherlands they managed to make a

The community tends to shy away from classes, but using a method for to_string accomplishes your second point in a minimal way. let to_string stringer : string = stringer#to_string val to_string : < to_string : string; .. > -&gt

Channels in go use the exact syntax you mention (dst <- src). With this in mind, the argument order of io.Copy is consistent, as well as io.Pipe. You read from a reader - the output of the pipe, and write to a writer - the input of the p

I get it that he's uneasy about Steam's dominance; but there's not a whole lot of reasoning behind it. There is competition, every publisher is trying to push their own marketplace. The problem is that they're all complete crap, look no fur
