There's a benefit in the cardinality during type checking when you use an external type checker. Strings have infinite possibilities an enum type is strictly defined. Also I'm sure with reflection you can actually implement a simp

Can dor is a stark contrast to skills it takes to be successful in the field of espionage and deception. A person who is truly honest and open will fail to be a spy as he will reveal the true nature of his intentions way too easily. To succ

Glad you didn't get voted down. People, by nature, have one dimensional views about a world that is in actuality multi-dimensional and highly complex. Humans evolved this way in order to navigate the complexity of the world as quick de

I backpacked through the Himalayas for 2 weeks to Everest base camp. I had internet access throughout the whole trip, so I'd say it depends on where you're backpacking.

I remember when I was a kid, before the internet became ubiquitous, sometimes I would decide to re-read a book I already read from scratch. Nowadays I can't even finish a book. I'm not sure how relate-able that experience is becau

Yeah but the title Application Engineer sounds like Dev Ops or backend engineer or front end engineer. Never is it mentioned that this is a position that is not a software engineer and is paid less than a software engineer. Like do I need t

by crimsonalucard1 6y ago
There is nothing wrong with this. I am saying what is wrong is that people aren't made aware that this is what the position entails. You are being hired on as a lower class engineer. I've had friends hired without being aware of t

Get this, I just found out Google hires for a role called "Application Engineer" which is a role where you program but are lower class and lowered paid than regular "software engineers." Google might not agree with the &

Like someone else mentioned that's not a fair representation. Warren is paid in growth of his net worth.

Yeah logging is like a bike. Generally worse than the car but good for you in terms of exercising your brain.

Is there an element or compound in the universe that will remain a gas at 0K? Does everything become solid at that temp?

by crimsonalucard1 6y ago
There really is no logical argument. People have their preferences for a bike or a car but the car is faster than the bike just like how the debugger is generally better then printing. There is very little logical argument for the alternati

I guess choosing when or how a program deallocates is important in a language that's close to the metal. Rust tries to be zero cost while providing abstractions that make it seemingly a high level language but ultimately things like th

Does there exist a solution that does what kubernetes does but without the complexity? If such a tool does not exist do any of you feel that the creation of such a tool is within the realm of possibility? I would imagine all these knobs cou

Because it's like using a while loop to print out each character in a string when you can just do print to print the entire string. I don't want to worry about external methods modifying state, I don't want to deal with const

by crimsonalucard1 6y ago
Well I mean would you rather have this: method(state){ return doSomething(state) } Or this: class A: otherThingThatMutatesState1() otherThingThatMutatesState2() otherThingThatMutatesState3()

by crimsonalucard1 6y ago
Less complexity to deal with. No need to worry about external scope or external methods mutating properties on objects. No need to think about constructors or anything else. No need to worry about inherited properties. No need to instantiat

by crimsonalucard1 6y ago
I would argue that it is actually waaay more awkward to use objects for this. See my example code here: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=23338700 You will see that it is far more concise and intuitive to do it with a fu

You still hit the same issue and you can still solve it the same way by converting that class with saved state into just a function. Below are two short examples of two different ways to do this: type Node = Null | {value: int, left: N
