   I've been relaying the quote from the readme for years. If you didn't click through: "In a class I taught at Berkeley, I did an experiment where I wrote a simple little program that would let people type either “f” or “d” an

   React is pretty easy to start with, for me the question is when does redux and the madness in redux starter kit become worth it.

   Not sure why this is downvoted. I use Lyft and this feels like why to me.

    I want strictness by default too. Looking forward to the strict pragma and using it everywhere. I kind of want Ocaml with a Go sized ecosystem.

    I'be been mulling over a similar concept for a while, really excited for this. Go has such great tooling and a nice ecosystem, but could use some language improvements, like coffeescript or the alt JVM languages. I really want sum typ

    I'm not implying anyone's lying, I'm just saying there's selection bias. I doubt anyone's lying, I bet a lot of people just don't reply.

    I just want to note that there's strong social pressure to not to claim that you don't love working as a programmer on this site. The odds a future boss or coworker is an HN regular is extremely high, and "passion" is h

    It wasn't until after spending non-trivial amounts of time building a non-trivial app in rails that I realized I hated the magic. It's not like I don't know that "magic" is metaprogramming and DSLs. I hate the metap

    I haven't read TAOCP, but for those things you mentioned, Computer Systems a Programmer's Perspective is great, especially if you're thinking the way you seem to be about how you can exploit these things rather than how they

    dual n-back is questionable in terms of improving iq / working memory, but if you want to try something much more concentration intensive than possibly anything else, give it a shot brainworkshop seems to be the most popular tool

    Dragonflybsd's HAMMER is a non layer "violator" with checksums (not that I mind the violations, they're great).

    There is nothing like i3 on osx as far as I know. Im pretty sure you also can't customize it at all to the degree you can customize Linux and *bsd.
