This is suprisingly good and even refreshing speech after reading tons of very opinionated pro- and contra-crypto articles. Financial system design still have this chicken or the egg problem – we need to design fintech systems aligned with

> Something open is different from something closed Right, but that's just a property of "something", not a type of it. When someone asks you "What type of door you have?" we don't say "I have an open d

Right, that's the obvious benefit for the compiler (statically enforcing behaviour, etc), but I'm struggling with not seeing here a detremential effect for the human. To me, when you write code, you're encoding your understan

The article is exemplary – it's reasonably short, concise, beautifully visualized and explains a complex topic with simple terms. I'm confused with "type promotion" in the `ConnectionStatus` example, though. When we pro

I really like your thinking here, especially the "more like real world" part. As you outlined in the previous comment, the source of the problem is the increased communication rates - in the offline world, you normally have like 6

His book "On intelligence" is already extremely good on explaining the basic principles of how neocortex works. I still find this book one of the most influential reads ever, and have been following Numenta work ever since. It&#x2

That's funny, but since I started using Go, I now organize all projects under GOPATH, i.e. in `~/src/github.com/user/project`, no matter what language it is in. GOPATH and HOME are almost synonims now. I find it so

Not supporting bashing language in this thread, but this was a reason I never wanted to develop in Java. This terrible desktop experience created a notable bias towards Java, and only later I learned that it's not that slow for network

I wish more developers could do "investigation" like this for a new languages they learn. For me, the main difference between Go's way of handling language and the rest of mainstream languages is that it makes error handling

The real benefit of gofmt is that it's zero-config and used by 100%±1 Go developers. Virtually all Go code is properly formatted and in the same style. It's priceless.

To be more precise I have a choice of being paid fiat/crypto (it's ETH) in any ratio I choose. So it can be 100%/0%, 50%/50% or 0%/100%. For now I'm using 50%/50%, so I'm not completely out of the &qu

I receive a salary in cryptocurrency for quite a long time, and I always try to be as objective and unbiased about articles on the future of blockchain and cryptocurrencies as much as I can. But articles like this truly disappoint me becaus

You only need to pick up the whole `vendor/` thing (you can "vendor" deps by copying it manually if it works for you), get familiar with `dep` probably (as a lot of project use it nowadays by default), and that's basical

This! It's one of the most important thing to remember – people paid money and came to listen here, and you've been invited as a speaker, so that means that you have something important to tell, and people really want you to succe

You're right, web development is more than just run a code, but it's not an order of magnitude more. If you use sane defaults, find the most common patterns and workflows, identify trade-offs and come up with elegant conventions,

I do not think so. And I think Webpack actually clearly shows the way where JS ecosystem goes – creating one layer of complexity on top of another. Each new layer, of course, solves the problem (not an easy one) of the previous one, but cre
