Speaking of undiscoverable: "Tap all the things, slide all the things' is now the de-facto modus operandi for figuring out how to use mobile apps. It feels like we made a huge step backwards in UX and are leaving behind generation

No thanks. I like my domain model flexible and at run-time. You'll be better off in the long run. (Imagining having data for type A(v1) and type A(v2), for example) If you do static domain modeling, your world remains static. That&#x

I hate to break it to you: You don't have privacy on the internet. If Discord was chosen by your employer, running on employer-provided laptops, yes, you need to use it. You can certainly call out their questionable ToS to your IT dep

"Their spying extends to every single message sent and received by anyone, including direct messages betweeen users." It's not spying if it is in their Terms of Service. Full of hyperbole. Yes, common sense SHOULD tell you: I

If you believe in microevolution, what do you think happens if "microevolution" continues for millenia? And why do all the creatures (you claim were created out of thin air) as if they had common ancestors? Both physiologically as

To your last point, I'm not sure what you want to say: Nuclear accidents happen and the cleanup can't be that bad compared to electricity generated? Imagine we would have used that $1b for renewables? Any idea how much power THAT

The idea is that you wouldn't need large refactorings in more dynamic languages in the first place since you are operating on a different abstraction level.

As CTO I'm trying to incorporate both sides: some hacking under the umbrella of a "Research Lab" and oversight/representation. I definitely feel the lack of management training. Being a nerd for decades doesn't mean

Maybe I missed it in the article, but is gzip-compression enabled? If so, the total amount of data transmitted will be quite different when a compounded response is compared to individual ones.

Loved the Z80 on my Amstrad CPC 464! I used an assembler typed in by hand from a magazine. Geekiest accomplishment: A disk loader for Spindizzy. The game was too large for the main memory with the disk driver loaded. Had to use the video

It still has a negative connotation. That's unavoidable. People don't like cockroaches. From a marketing point of view, it is a very bad name. Unless the perception of cockroaches changes, which is rather unlikely.

When are they going through with a rename? This sub-optimal name is holding them back.

Amazing job by the discord team having the patience with the available tools to analyze these problems and the stamina to dig deeper and deeper. Well done! It is quite interesting to see that the re-frame and fulcro authors were on the righ

It's pretty cute. Still no static types for "Strings that end with a dot" or "Strings that match [a-z]+" or "Strings that are proper nouns". ;) I'm not sure I understand the benefits of this compared

I've always tried to argue that if a problem can be sub-divided and those sub-divisions as well, we can understand it eventually. I.e. the good old divide-and-conquer principle.

I think it's because Clojure itself has been offering a better alternative to streams for years. And let's be honest: @FunctionalInterfaces are a compiler hack, since Java doesn't really have functions. And what I simply love

What's the support for hot-reloading in Vue 3? (as in Fighweel for example), i.e. state survives re-loading of component code, so you can see your changes right away without any navigation action. This used to kinda work with Vue 2 by

An important point of using dynamic types is not mentioned: The actual workflow of coders: Compile, run, fail, repeat vs. eval, fail, repeat. After over 35 years of coding - mostly with statically compiled languages -doing it REPL-style mak
