I'm sure this will do wonders to all the broken features github keeps adding since being acquired. At one point I stopped thinking about github because it Just Worked. These days its a dice roll if even simple things like loading a rep

iphone 12 mini has been my favorite phone I've ever owned, and coincidentally the first iphone I've ever owned.

Didn’t google try this? What was the result?

This reminds me of a great blog post by Frank McSherry (Materialize, timely dataflow, etc) talking about how using the right tools on a laptop could beat out a bunch of these JVM distributed querying tools because... data locality basically

People disagreeing within the company on sensible comp killed one, a failure to target a large enough market for another, and finally another disagreement on direction where I left. Arguably the last startup I was in hasn’t failed but… it’s

I think partly this is driven by the fed, but maybe more so some eager investors looking to put their weight on the scales in their favor… go figure. Don’t know how that’s conspiracy theory stuff. I agree, it’s surprising how resilient the

This is an incredible earnings, you'd think if there were a true recession advertising spend would go down the tubes. That doesn't seem to be happening, if anything the opposite is sort of being laid out on the books here between

Would love to see a pedantic modern cmake example of you know if one

by bfrog 4y ago
I’m not sure I agree that cmake is declarative.. look at complex builds with it and it looks a lot more like a badly designed scripting language with global state everywhere

That seems really low, lots of older devices out there or samsung not updating?

Recessions might even be akin to fires in forests. Destructive sure, but gives space for new growth to sprout.

Globalization has clearly done wonders for social stability and wealth generation. Yea let’s keep our heads in the sand that’ll work.

Same! I’ve written reasonably large programs in both. Go definitely has a lower learning curve and there’s absolutely value in that and it’s faster compile times. In a team with mixed experience and backgrounds making web or network service

Frankly it depends, just like in C++, how the code is written. Rust, even more so than C++ code bases I've worked on and with, really tries to do lots of static typing and mono morphizing. If you work with large projects using boost an

Maybe? I found Go pretty stifling and ran into corners where I was faced with having to copy/paste a lot, write a code generator, or resort to ditching type safety. None of those options are very satisfying. I know generics are now the

It's not solely about compile times though. If you consider all the debugging time Rust saves you from, I'd guess Rust even with its slower compile time, comes out ahead in terms of productivity. That is after all what this link i

It's just amazing how industrious and creative a small group at Mozilla was in order to boot strap Rust. Cheers to Graydon and Mozilla. Let an elevator never fail you again.

So apple seems to be dropping c like languages, Microsoft says new stuff should not be written in c like languages anymore, and google has steadily worked towards using rust and go in place of c and c++ where it makes sense to do so it seem

I like the idea of a newer language but inevitably it feels like anything not Verilog or vhdl is missing direct tooling support from the vendors. Do any vendors intend on supporting chisel? Does chisel have enough control to ensure generat

by bfrog 4y ago
I tried Verilog at first but found myself liking vhdl quite a lot more. It just fit my mental model better and helped avoid some really silly errors I kept making as a beginner. I could probably pick up Verilog now a bit quicker, I’d jump s

Apple weather is about as useful as one of those plastic bubble popping lawnmowers. As in darn near useless. They hid the hourly reports a few levels into the app and the darn thing never is right for me. Makes me really hate apple a little
