There doesn't need to be. These VMs aren't designed to run anything other than their flagship languages.

That's not what I meant. I was saying that there's at least 50% chance that you might be immune to this virus. Who knows, there might be 1000 people who were infected but never went to hospital because they got better without medi

There was no sarcasm here. The comment just states that the virus' 0 day fatality rate is at most 50%. Why are you offended by this fact? Obviously we might see some twists like the virus becoming more resiliant, and obviously we won&#

It looks like each characters has a bunch of equivalent emotes and one is picked randomly when generating output.

Nice, the output isn't a direct mapping from characters to emojis. I wonder why?

> The scary part is that of the official 8,200 or so people that have been confirmed to have the virus there's been 171 deaths, and 143 recoveries. It isn't that bad. It means that this virus won't kill more than 50% of po

> It will also do some autocomplete, although this seems flakey Can you explain this point. Is it possible that you might have forgotten to sync the new code with the repl. Editor and repl use different completion backends in cursive.

It wasn't a serious comment. I thought it was obvious from the tone. > But if you ran such an analysis across public GitHub repositories per-language and wrote the results up in a blog post, I'm sure HN would love to see it. I&

It was an app I wrote, probably in algorithmic category. But even in business code, I very rarely see off by one problems that would be easier to handle in 1 based indexing. > e.g. writing "<= n - 1" rather than "< n

n is n steps ahead of 0,and thats what < checks for.

Even in business domain apps interfacing with humans is a miniscule fraction of the work.

A recent study has found the number of '+1's and '-1's in a codebase is around 15 times higher if you use 1 based indexing.

It looks like a good intro, thanks. I wasn't aware of these technologies, but I knew it was possible to build an FS in RAM. So I just put these two keywords together.

I don't understand the rage. It's a shortcut that opens amazon.com in a browser. It queries location, for opening the local amazon site, but that could be avoided by disabling geoclue.

For a rat, the spinal cord could be just as big, or bigger than the brain in mass. It's possible that the spinal cord does majority of processing for rats, like cockroaches.

Chopper in fs98 was impossibly difficult to fly. I never got it to hover for more than 5 secs. It was like balancing a bead on an inverted bowl. They replaced the bowl with a flat surface in later versions. Don't know if real ones are

I don't think he meant it that way. He's probably trying to say that depending on a "custom language" is a bad thing in itself. I personally don't feel that dart is tied in any way to flutter. It was originally mean
