I am not saying that is wrong, but there are many mysterious claims in that book. I especially found the claim that "the most expensive burden to society is sugar" by a large margin was pretty astonishing. It lacks wide support in

I once wrote an inliner. When you have not done it, it seems simple. When you are doing it it is like trying to restrain a large rabid dog with a slippery leash. Now, I am not a programmer by trade, but I have a hard time thinking anyone wo

Adding to this: using laziness compared to a while loop in cases where you will process the whole array is just pure overhead. Heck, testing now on 3.4.4 a while loop is faster than using each. Summing a million numbers (to make the overhea

Laziness is not free. An eager loop will be faster than a lazy construct, especially languages where the laziness isn't really a first class construct. Like ruby. Rewriting the code you wrote (or was it the other guy? I am making food

I spent some time discussing in another thread discussing why the foreach loop is so bad in many languages. Most of the bugs I write come from me managing state, yet if I want to do much more than going start to end of a collection I have t

I dont think interfaces is the point. As it is now in ruby you have to pick between comfort and speed when you can have both. Continuation safety has never been a thing in ruby, so caring about it doesn't make much sense regardless of

Listen, my gripe isn't with ruby in particular. It is with every language out there. Doing it that way is still going to be slower than doing it eagerly with a manual loop. I am not saying ruby should do away with the other ways of doi

Your example of the flatten and grep will build two intermediate arrays before summing. That's inefficient. I would also reach for higher order functions for most things, but when you need things to be fast that is not how you would do

You can iterate over strings and lists and arrays at the same time. You can do destructuring. You can accumulate values in every part of the loop, so if you have subloops you can accumulate values in the outer and inner and every intermedia

Yet, iterating over several collections and accumulating values is awkward. It is not that it is easy to implement the iteration protocol, it is that the construct for looping universally sucks. Even the awful loop macro from common lisp r

Leaving the comfort of lisp, I have started to wonder: why are all the looping facilities in other languages so awful? Standing on the shoulders of giants, I made this little abomination: https://rikspucko.koketteriet.se/bjo

Outdated maybe, but still quite functional. What is your issue with it? if people find the UI so bad, wouldnt it be easier to try to push an updated UI than getting all the infrastructure and everything going?

While being heavily inspired guile-fibers, it seems to not actually be parallel. Anyway, I would say it is actually the nicest way to write concurrent programs. It supports you and helps you to not shoot yourself in the foot, while also sta

This was my solution as well. Why even have a robot? Give me a conveyor belt, some cameras and a moderately powerful SBC and I think I could probably manage a system that does one package a second with a fallback for humans to process what

For all my applications, going to PyPy was an instant 2x improvement. Not only that, it is a lot easier to hack on. I might be biased, but the whole implementstion idea of PyPy seems a lot more sane.

I was like you. Now I am on the immutable train. I really do think that is the future. I was on opensuse from 10.0, but and recently ended up on aeon which I find probably the most excitingly boring distro I have ever used apart from Debian
