> This number scared us (a lot) at first but we quickly figured out that most of these were related to TypeScript not supporting .js files. Typescript actually does support .js files. You just need to use the `--alowJs` option.

Love TextMate. It was my first editor. But has anybody else noticed a slowdown in startup time? It feels like it takes longer to open then VSCode, which is surprising for a native application.

If the information is supposed to be private wouldn't you want to use token based auth or something similar? I wouldn't feel comfortable exposing information publicly even if it was behind a UUID.

Thanks for the advice! I'll look into that. I have not spent much time in assembly land so it should be an interesting lesson.

I've run into a similar issue writing a ray tracer in Swift! We are even both using Peter Shirley's "Ray Tracing in One Weekend" as a reference! I'm to this day struggling to get the performance near the level of th

Neat! I've got a similar library, Cliffy[1], also written in Typescript. But it's designed to be run interactively in-proccess. https://github.com/drew-y/cliffy

That's what I was thinking. Some home routers have source links for the free software they use.

Agreed. Although I do think that memory safe systems languages are seriously low hanging fruit.

I feel like that $3.6 Million in funding go a lot further if spent on projects like the Rust Language.

Looks great! One thing that would be nice would be the ability for Raneto to act as a static Docs generator. Looks like you have to use nodejs as the server as it stands. I'd like to be able to use a simple static http-server.

JS won't be entirely obsolete. You won't be able to access the DOM from WebAssembly. It will be way easier to make way more performant web apps though.

Or node.js v6.x for that matter. Seeing as io.js has merged back into node.

The download link from swift.org doesn't seem to be DRM'd. I can open it just fine in my ePub reader. Maybe its an iBooks thing? https://swift.org/documentation/TheSwiftProgrammingLanguage(...

I'd much prefer wayland over Mir. I know they're already set in their ways but wayland on fedora 25 works beautifully and has a way more reasonable license. It'd also be nice to have Ubuntu's support in continuing waylan

This is actually something that can be done in the IDE distributed with Racket ( https://racket-lang.org/ ). When I first started playing with the language one of the biggest things that stood out was the ability to embed ima

Thanks for the clarification! I'd definitely be interested in the source if it were available. Elm looks promising to me and it'd be neat to check out how it was used here.

Nice! Really easy to use and the templates look great. One question though: > Launchaco website builder is licensed under CC0 Does that mean both the website builder itself and the website you build with it are CC0? And is the source to

Thanks. I've heard good things about SICP and that it pairs well with "The Little Schemer" and "The Seasoned Schemer".

Since the introduction of ES2015, JavaScript has actually been a really nice language to work with. It's been really well implemented and optimized by browsers lately. So I don't really see a good reason to switch languages sudden

I use "Markdown Preview" as well. I couldn't get "Markdown to PDF" to properly apply the styling though.
