I prefer the FP approach of separating data and logic. you could end up with a box of functions (logic) that can be reused by the different "entities". Last time i checked the FP world is slowly producing ECS frameworks that are n

I think Sam has amassed a net worth enough to live comfortably not having to work another day in his life. To me that changes the meaning of "fired". I'd read it as "co-entrepeneurs parting ways". Yes one of the co-

Interesting to see a project from Giuseppe's Github here on HN. FP for browser apps is a lot of fun for us lately, but we picked Elm. The rationale: the absence of runtime errors is really sweet when your code runs in the browser (no n

Or write a parser! In most cases the parser will not be shorter (code) than the regex, but it will most certainly be simpler (cognitively; it's hard to understand all that regexes do, they're close to magic) and more testable (you

It's a total subversion of democracy. Remember the "russian interferrence" scandal that supposedly happened? MSM was all over it, the only thing you heard. 10 million to Biden got from AIPAC is never even mentioned in the MSM

Lobbyism is legal corruption in my book. See what AIPAC has paid senators (over 10 million for Biden over his whole carreer), and that the US gives money to Israel (whom in turn pays AIPC for it's work). That means that, in a way, amer

IBM prolly got them to agree to do the re-licensing move "as Hashicorp" as part of the take over deal. So it would not look bad on IBM.

Dual licensing also makes it IMHO less likely that a project "continues as proprietary". Example: Qt. I think "contributor agreements" are the biggest red flag. Though I like them for potentially upgrading a license (say
