In 2005 I took a sub-symbolic AI course where one of the homework assignments was to evolve a neural network using genetic algorithms. So that in itself is nothing new. The novelty of the paper seems to be the scale of the solution. Persona

Actually I think the U.S. is ahead of Norway here, as cannabis has been decriminalized in several states in the U.S. As to the racial component — Norway is not as racially diverse as the U.S., but if you are black you will be routinely stop

I live in Norway. While I'm happy about this vote, it remains to be seen how it will play out in practice. So far the Norwegian drug policy has been terrible — police searches of homes and cars with questianble probable cause; routinel

I disagree with iA'a philosophy. I like to write fiction with proportional serif fonts, often quite similar to fonts that would be used in print. Sometimes I change fonts to defamiliarize the text, which helps me read it with fresh eye

Probably because the WTF cases are exaggerated. After a couple of months coding JS you will know it well enough so it doesn't bite you. It really is a non-issue for people who work with it daily.

Completely agree. I much prefer the ML syntax to ALGOL-like syntax.

From what I remember from the article while it was up, the Clojure codebase ended up significantly smaller than the Python codebase.

And there are runtimes that do that, like Erlang's BEAM. At least Node concurrency is a step in the right direction, as it's much easier to reason about than threads on the JVM.

Chiming in here, having only dabbled with Elixir for a couple of months. My gripes: - Calling lambdas with a dot is a real wart. I find it very easy to forget and it looks ugly. - I also don't like the Rubyesque end keyword you have to

His argument that static typing introduces coupling and reduces modularity is convincing. His argument that Java's Spring framwork is little more than necessary dynamism forcing its way back into a statically typed language was eye ope

I think the gradual typing TypeScript provides is pretty useful, with relaitvely low friction.

Elixir seems very similar to Clojure to me (the former being influenced by Clojure).

A curious side effect of Discover Weekly is that it sometimes influences what I listen to, i.e. I'm afraid to listen to a song in a particular genre because I don't want Disover Weekly to get the wrong idea. But then again, maybe

Web servers' performance benefit from concurrent programming models. Concurrent programming is certainly possible in Java, but Java/JVM is not particularly well suited for it compared to other languages/VMs, e.g. Erlang.

I wonder how many will consider switching to Kotlin instead of upgrading to Java 9. Kotlin is really just what Java should/could have been. It wouldn't surprise me if Kotlin has mostly replaced Java in 10 years.

Voting is still done on paper in Norway. The votes are often counted automatically by scanning the ballot papers. In addition they will now be counted manually at least once as a security measure.

I agree. She raised this concern as a private citizen and debated it on national tv and radio with the ballot bureaucrats who initally dowplayed the issue. If it hadn't been for her, probably nothing would have been done about it.
