   This is the best suggestion I've seen and yet the one which Microsoft cannot do for tear of people running after then with pitchforks.

   A Microsoft product using google forms. Lol. I mean I know they want to keep their image of "startup" but using inferior tools isn't necessary for that.

   Sorry off topic but if I could follow one person for experience, not bring biased and knowledge of the state of the art of software tooling (and tonnes of other things... but tools are useful and not easy to find) then I would follow you. Y

   That was 2016. With wsl ;). Oh wait, the year of gnu on desktop I meant. And the year when Linux could drop any hope of being used on desktop.

   This is actually cool. Scala.js + scalatags has this looking like this: ``` val model = div( button( onClick := decrement )( "-" ), // decrement is typechecked as being a function of event div( float :=

   Anybody who liked elm is highly recommended to check out Scala.js. With scalatags, it looks close to what elm does AND you have the entire power of jvm libs. And you get code sharing across client and server as its just plain old scala. I b

    I think what you're posting definitely sounds suspicious and a lot of rust users are doing it for the hype but. 1) rust genuinely is a great language and his opinion in the comment is something I have as a professional c++ programmer o

    Scala programmers would recognize this as the difference between () and .get(). I hope rust copied scalas syntax- its much cleaner, rather than trying to be nice to the established system languages (c/c++) This would also free up the [

    If I can make a suggestion - I don't mind the program being slow because of all the logic - how would it be if you didn't give special status to ascii but instead tried to intelligently assume a string encoding for strings and acc

    Anyone else not a fan of private entities squatting on domains in a subversive way? I like protonmail like I like sourcegraph but they are disingenuous in the squatting of gdpr.eu and langserver.org. The latter is even more egregious

    I seem to remember having come a Ross a link where the code objects in qml were rust and not Js. Can't find now. Seen this:? https://www.vandenoever.info/blog/2017/02/17/a-simple-rust-g...

    As someone who lives in zsh and bash for interactive usage- I want to say- please do not write scripts in bash or zsh. Use powershell- its an amazingly well designed scripting language. Also- there is ammonite. Written for scripting.

    Wyldfire's comment got me thinking- you should go work for Microsoft. They value developer relationship immensely. And I hear they treat their employees well, not just monetarily.

    Great points. I agree with you on most counts except hufflepuffs are known to be loyal and I don't know if that's how I would characterize the middle stage employees. I'd say they are more like muggles. Quietly do what's

    I want to say from his past blog posts- Steve is a very thoughtful writer. And from all my online interactions in comments- a very respectful person. Knowing him (whatever little) things must be really frustrating for him to call Mozilla ou

    I don't agree with Christianity's stand on gays. Hence no more churches. I don't agree with islam's stance on gays and women and adultery. Hence no more mosques. Am I a hater?
