Could you expand on, for a person who only dabbled with Mathematica some time back, what that niche is?

What I've seen with the current generation of languages with a lot of compiler-enforced guarantees is that they introduce a lot of needless complexity to the vast majority of problems, which are very often simple. Overdoing monadic con

It's worth mentioning Talon[0] here, which is a system for offline voice control as well, with great python-based scripting (and also supports eye tracking, though I haven't used it myself). Using your computer or programming with

It's worth noting that AWS is really good with this. Their paid technical support (the 100-200$ one) is great and responsive, with an easy way to escalate if a response isn't helpful.

Nope, I think the go module proxy is just fine. See my other response[0] for an explanation of what I meant. [0]: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=34773848

I haven't misrepresented anything. I have also mentioned I don't think the Go module proxy is a bad thing. I think it's a good thing. I understand why it's there. We share the same opinion I think, in general. What I a

I think a lot of users don't actually interact directly with the CLI. Think IDEs, editors, CI/CD. You'd be cutting them out, again skewing the stats heavily.

Well, it allows you to track which packages are used how much and gather ip addresses of your users. IP addresses being the only "personal" data the new telemetry proposal would plausibly be able to gather as well, which a lot of

I mean, some folks in the thread were absolutely arguing in bad faith. A lot of people just go ahead with the "telemetry=bad" message + critique of telemetry in general without even taking a look at the actual proposal[0] (which h

Yes, sticking everything into `$HOME/.toolname` is what most cross-platform software is doing, and I imagine that's just fine for the vast majority of users.

If, as you say > most all of the Linux software dumping dotfiles in my homedir then is it really true, that the standard is in fact "well established"?

by cube2222 4y ago
I mean, from the perspective of a person that hasn't heard about it before, this is just another standard[0]. I opened your links. There's no easy way to judge the traction or popularity of this. Why do you think maintainers shoul

by cube2222 4y ago
Most things in fish can be achieved with customization and configuration in other shells, like zsh or bash. The point of fish is a sane set of defaults that doesn't require customization and is good enough.

You're framing this as though the "ethical" choice were obvious, or that there was a person who "knew this was the ethical thing to do, but turned a blind eye". I disagree, I think it's a very contested topic,

All this boils down to "an unskilled engineer will misinterpret data even if they have it". I'll assume the Go team knows what they're doing, based on their track record so far. There's a lot of very simple question

Probably related to[0]. To anybody complaining that this should be opt-in: opt-in telemetry doesn't work. The reason for this is that most people don't care, but they don't care either way. They don't disable it when pro

There's not much reason to have 5GHz for smart home devices. 2.4GHz has better range and is ubiquitous. 5GHz has better throughput, but my lightbulb doesn't need 500MB/s of transfer. Most routers will just create two networks

I've seen them. Let's see how they tackle those problems. I don't think fish, as a shell you're probably not using for checked-in scripts, needs too much backwards compat. I know it's a meme, and I don't enjo

Fun stuff! I keep recommending fish whenever I get the chance. It doesn't require any customization, has sane defaults, is simple to use, and provides a great shell experience in general. Additionally, I don't have to google each
