You're begging for it. Not every situation calls for type safe languages, you're projecting a preference.

From my experience it's VERY rare for people to pay for anything unless they're forced, I do the same thing even though I'm very aware of the need for compensating creators. Talk is cheap, and people talk a lot about supporti

Something's seriously messed up with the font on that page for me.

I realize some people had severe damage to their ears, but for the rest I would recommend having a look at Nada Yoga.

Yep, one of the minor details the micro service fan club don't talk about much. Firing up the whole mess and debugging one or two of them locally is always a major pain, and god help you if you have no idea which services to stub and w

And what's the alternative then, from your perspective? What did you have in mind when you wrote the comment?

Yeah I know, if only we could rewrite the entire world in Rust everything would be rainbows and unicorns. But it's not going to happen, deal with it.

Given how much critical software is written in C, and the number of problems we run into; I don't see a reason to keep repeating that line outside of the Rust marketing department. Some people will always prefer C to Rust, might as wel

Makes even less sense when you put it like that, why not invest that effort into your own skills instead?

Meta did what they always do, whatever they think they can get away with.

Yes, and a lot of people recognize the value of having a little bit of syntax in their Lisp.

Come on, everyone knows that computer nerds live on pizza. Says a thing or two about the typical manager world view...

Sure, hacking during normal work hours is a completely different deal.

Bullshit, life has been gradually becoming more and more artificial and divorced from physical reality for a while now, and the speed seems to be increasing.

Mix, similar to CL but slightly more runtime atm.

Good for you, and him, for a while at least. What about the world? Being good at this bullshit doesn't imply any kind of competence in anything that matters.

And how exactly is that going to help improve the hiring situation? It's already very inhumane and getting worse. Are applicants just supposed to sit and roll their thumbs waiting for the right AI to have the right hallucinations? I do

Being surrounded by people who follow every nudge and agree with everything you say never leads anywhere worth going. This is likely worse. That being said, I already find the (stupid) singularity to be much more entertaining than I could h

Not everyone enjoyed the transition from being creators to becoming assistant slop verifiers as much as you did.

Agreed, super weird. Did it once for a back injury as an adult, also only remember the countdown. But my system was flushed with opiates when I woke up, so I was in a pretty good mood at least.

That's your opinion, I don't agree. And the other reason is I can use the same syntax wherever I want type checking.
442.
by codr7 1y ago
Well, use something else. And maybe ask yourself why you felt saying so was important to you.

Lucky you, I've experienced several variations on that theme in my own career. Often sold as team building and way to level up in competence/skill, with an undertone of proving your loyalty to the company.

Could never wrap my head around the idea. They're often framed by employers as perks: Look, we're giving you the chance to come and work overtime for free, isn't that great?

Some people seem to like it, and be very effective using it. The problem is it's a walled garden, with its own quirky syntax; nothing that happens inside of loop is applicable outside, and the other way around.

No, AI is a computer pretending (badly) to be human.

Once the code is mature and only needs sporadic updates, that's not true anymore from my experience. The story around the code is lost, people leave and the developers who make changes weren't around when the code was first writte

The main issue I have with CLs type checking is the clunky syntax and the fact that it looks different in different contexts. I made an attempt to fix that for eli: https://github.com/codr7/eli#type-checking

The understanding of the code certainly degrades, which means any updates cause the code to lose its integrity over time.

They don't have to do anything. When society crumbles because nothing works anymore its going to be our problem.
