One small propeller is less efficient than one big propeller. What drives the efficiency really is the ratio of propeller surface area to mass. So a lot of small propellers are roughly as efficient as a big one. Actually bonus point for the

Couple reasons: 1-An external API is a product, you have to maintain it, keep it backward compatible even when you change your internal models, monitor it, protect it against attacks, etc. So no, I do not agree that it would be easy for Sla

Even if Flutter existed, it would absolutely not have been an obviously smart move by Slack to DOUBLE their engineering workload by picking it instead of Electron while still having to develop a web based version. For what result? The app w

Look, I'm not even stating an opinion here, I'm just stating facts. Clearly, companies and developers are behaving in a way you don't like. You seem to believe that billion dollar companies are just stupid, that all developer

Apple charges $200 for 8GB additional RAM. So the cost of 600MB of Apple RAM in $15. That's the cost of 1 month of a subscription to Slack. You're likely to use your laptop for ~4years = 50months, so the RAM cost of Slack is aroun

I thought the same at first, but forcing one additional scope level / layer of indentation for each disposable resource ends up looking a lot like "callback hell", with deeply nested code. I've seen that in Python many t

Memoization is state. As a functional programming maximalist myself, I know it hurts a little bit, but still, Caching/Memoization is statefulness. That said, you are right that as a user of the system, that statefulness is abstracted f

There are lenses. Your eyes don't have to accommodate to a couple ft in front of you in VR, unlike with a screen. Instead they can focus on infinity or a very long distance, so it's actually wayyyyy better for myopia.

Moving the Web to Dart/Flutter would cost billions. How would it help in ANY way solving any challenge that currently exists? What even are these challenges? The OP is pretty blurry on that.

Why does it have to be like that long term? There is no reason to keep them separate if they use the same language and platform. See https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=36006626

It’s not transpiled. Only some implementations of it are. Just use Bun or Deno with TypeScript. There is literally zero runtime impact. It’s just natively TypeScript.

You might be surprised. https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=36006626 But of course yes, The ML stuff should be Wasm and WebGPU. The point is you can access it from Typescript. Just like most data science libraries are not

All of these could be equally valid results of your list comparison: True, False, [True, False], [[True, True], [True, False]]. I like that typescript does not rely on an implicit choice, but let’s me express exactly what comparison I care

Mojo looks cool. But I'll wait for it to be open sourced AND as easy to use as Typescript + React for real complex web apps before considering it. I expect this to take 2-5 years if it ever happens. It's a possible future, not the

by crubier 3y ago
Controversial, but I think that rather than trying to make Web stuff (e.g. React) work in Python, a more fruitful direction would be to make ML stuff (e.g. PyTorch, OpenCV) work in Typescript. Javascript/Typescript is way faster than P

Double pixels still means only 41% better pixels per inch, per mm or per degree.

Sqrt(2) = 1.4 so there are 40% more pixels per inch. It’s not a different order of magnitude.
