I expect Apple to continue to provide a secure platform. I will not use any other app store for that reason. I like the wall around Apple's garden.

This is only partial true nowadays. There are at least 4 different options for Clojure fans that dislike Java. BB, ClojureScript in node and browser, ClojureCLR (.NET), ClojurERL. (and a few more). If you love static types, use TypedClojure

Who paid for these studies? "order of seasons" - that can't be right.

> "Future users of large data banks..." Nothing in Rama prevents you from doing that. You just see it through the SQL lens and your entire point is invalid.

it's fine for example purposes IMHO.

It is amazing how easily self-sustaining structures emerge from such simple rules. Mesmerizing.

There are whole countries who have built stable grids with wind, water, solar and battery alone. Financially building nuclear power plants make absolutely no sense.

Too late for the bonanza here, but back in the day I owned an 8-bit Amstrad CPC 464 machine which came with a built in cassette deck. Eventually a 3"(!) disk drive was launched which needed some extra space in the upper memory banks to

That doesn't make sense. Especially not at the price point we are talking. The money is better spent elsewhere. Just look at this and draw your own conclusions: https://www.caiso.com/TodaysOutlook/Pages/supply

The ability to reason about code, to split it into modules that can be developed independently etc. is not dependent on having a static type system. It is dependent on having a specification. "Types" is just one form of, in many l

The input field is not E2EE, the text rendering is not E2EE. Plenty of opportunity to look at your fine messages in plain text. Impressive theater though.

I think the issue is that the set of "operations" you can do on the start vector is limited.

Here we are in 2023 still battling with forms (see comments about datalist and color picker) and general UX for users entering data. It blows my mind. Why this isn't a solved space is beyond me. An attempt was made to tackle this onc

I'm thrilled to see the progress made in the last 30 years. As a student in the mid-90s I worked on a system called Verbmobil at the German Research Center for AI and it did speech-to-speech for English, German and Japanese in very lim

The crux with a disabled button is discoverability: What is the user supposed to do to enable it?

Hahaha, loved coding RPG on the AS400. The file system on top of the database layer! Awesome stuff

if there would be any evidence, you wouldn't have to "believe". It would be fact. But that isn't the case. On the contrary: given the state of the world the only logical conclusion is that there's only us. There&#x2

Hard not to be sarcastic about it. What makes this specific to this particular book or can this be used for any book?

I find it mind boggling you don't understand that the solution provided here is about type-checks on data, i.e. data validation. And you can use TypeScript all day but not be protected from missing or wrong data validation. No compiler

by beders 3y ago
The compiler can't help you at all when reading and validating data at runtime. You mean you could use a library that helps you with checking the shapes?

What would "convert existing cars" get you? A BEV is so much simpler to build and maintain.

Use the right tool for the job. If you need to barter with your compiler about the most efficient way to store data in memory, going for a strongly typed language is ... advisable. Building a fintech solution that requires supporting ever c

Both terms are problematic as they anthropomorphize an algorithm.

The author is basically wrong on all the points. I used to think like that for decades, but in recent years changed my mind completely. Types lead to less bugs - nope, maybe marginally, but not significantly (see research on that) Types lea

Tonsky, dude. I stopped reading your article because of your little websocket experiment.

MacOS is - by choice - an Apple controlled walled garden. Trying to break out of that is an exercise in futility. Can you come up with situations where I would run a container instead of just running an app or sys service?

Names. The problem always comes down to naming. `StartLine.Verb.GET` is not a good name. Neither StartLine nor Verb are used in that context in the HTTP spec. The most widely used name for GET/POST etc. is Method. The author will find
