Then why are you commenting on a thread about Go? Just to be dick?

A lot of hate here, but I for one love it! I'm quite tired of having almost the entire first page of search results be ads, and then having to also scan passed a ton of undesirable SEO-hacked results to get what I want and this is perf

It isn't good enough. There's a bunch of new languages coming out all the time, and even ones that are 10 years old (Clojure) aren't supported well in editors without LSP support, like Micro. LSP support allows the language e

If you've never needed to use go-to definition then I assume you never work on anything even remotely large. But even in projects with, I don't know, 10 files, I find go-to extremely useful.

I'd say far more common, actually. The vast majority of the worlds engineers do not work for big tech. Also, most of the engineers I've worked with never got comp sci education, or even any related education. They all learned on t

I wouldn't say something lacking a LSP is modern by todays standards, as that would mean it lacks syntax highlighting, go-to definition, and other basic things for a bunch of languages.

Seems like a pretty direct rip-off of Notion. It's almost as if it was deliberate.

This. I have also felt very burned out and frustrated with our industry, but with a little therapy I've found that most of my unhappiness comes from within, and once resolving those issues I've realized that being a developer is o

Maybe crypto just isn't for us plebs. On the other hand when I get paid my salary I can be pretty damn sure it still has enough value to be able to pay my bills even a year from now. With crypto I don't think I could even get a go

Some banks charge "maintenance" fees monthly, usually some cents, afaik. But there are also banks that don't charge anything at all. Fact of the matter is that banks don't make their money on your account maintenance fee

I always find it funny how the crypto fanboy counter-argument is something so edge-case that it would never happen to 99% of people. So you're saying that to benefit from crypto I should be a billionaire?

JS is everywhere though. You even have parasitic languages that compile to JS (ClojureScript, TypeScript, etc). You got Node and also Deno for back-end stuff with support for multithreading. Concequently, JS is among the most popular, and m

Yes, but in most cases GraalVM would be a preferable choice ( https://www.inner-product.com/posts/benchmarking-graalvm-nat... ).

To add to this, you can also compile an uberjar into a static executable with Graal VM. I use that to build CLI apps for example, and it works wonders.

Yes, people want to work with technologies they enjoy, therefore doing work they enjoy.

Saying that a purposely Apple-only product has a con that it is Apple-only is like saying a vanilla ice cream has a con that it is not chocolate.

Entire Latin America relies on whatsapp. From government services and doctor appointments to pretty much any business there is. It is such a vital part of the infrastructure that I don't know what would happen if it went down. I mean I

By the metric that I can have an entry level Macbook outperform maxed out Macbooks of a previous era. Oh and, do that with a ~20 hour battery life. And no fan.

I recommend joining a smaller company or start-up, that way you have plenty of interesting things to work on, and won't be bogged down to being a "code monkey", as you can influence architectural decisions, and so on. It&#x27

I suppose that's how people ended up with Linux. A mish-mash of incoherent UX executions where each app uses a GUI that doesn't quite match your OS and the whole experience is subpar because no boundaries are ever enforced. Likewi

What enterprise tools are you thinking of? Because Clojure runs on the JVM, I'd imagine what works for Java also to work for Clojure. Personally I see Clojure as a perfect choice for an ever-increasing amount of complexity, since you&#

I feel like the U.S and middle east are pretty similar in terms of social progress. Or should I say, _regress_.

Found the one person who uses Notepad.exe because no actual Lisper even notices the indents due to structural editing capabilities of IDE's, much like {} in C-based languages.

ClojureScript (JS target) is as web-centric as you can think, with what you can write front-end apps, Node.js apps, React and React Native apps, using Clojure. Clojure (JVM target) can do back-end web as well as Java can, as well as anythin

That's outsourcing for the employer, but consulting for the employee. If I consult for a US company while being in South America, I'm still a consultant. They are the ones outsourcing.

If there was an option to pay or not pay, most people would probably opt to not pay, and you as a software developer or shop probably want to pay bills, so wishing that all shops acted like this is not logical to me at all.

And so we should complain about everything and everyone then? Surely we can think of SOMETHING to always improve, right? Therefore everyone and everything must always be better! That's a pretty toxic approach to things. That's lik
