It me quite a while to realize by "not work another day in his life" as actually meaning he will win large sums of money and not have to work, instead of my initial parsing as "he would never be allowed to work somewhere agai

Pun intended? It was just the two programmers writing that for a long time so I guess the mostly-procedurally-generated content makes sense.

What's the difference if you have a Tesla that is FSD capable but it is disabled? I bought into FSD because I had the cash but disabled it.

We use Clojure for large data processing where it shines. It's also good at doing concurrency with it's solid concurrency tools and immutability by default. So a lot of people use it for financial data, fraud, and big data stuff.

Also, in a slightly better light, people don't actually know what "best" is. Sure, there is a ton of ugly competition, but there is also some good forced exploration out of that to try alternatives which frequently can arrive

So now people have to keep a piece of paper around or somehow put it into some software and not lose access. You're right, it would work. In reality, people can't even be bothered to use a password manager or understand even the m

Isn't the problem with one time pads distributing the pad? Like, you would have to walk to a bank and have them hand you a piece of paper... and tellers could read the paper before handing it to you. So basically so ineffective in prac

You might be surprised to learn a lot of servers even have largish time drift. I might be repeating info which is getting out of date but I heard 30 second drift isn't uncommon. Obviously doing NTP syncing more frequently would probabl

We used my regex compressor and saw a very large speedup on a large production system so anecdotally it was very useful.

Do you know is Java's built-in regex engine builds a DFA? This is all news to me. I built that optimizer because we were doing something pretty naive at work I suppose: we were doing the string concatenation joining with | for a relati

Also, they could compress the regular expressions for speedup by using a trie data structure and then walking the trie to match common-overlap. This is a Java example but you could easily port it or even just run it in Java and then export

Someone else pointed out that they likely were doing astronomy predictions/measurements so you actually need the precision.

It's actually relatively complete but it's a lead for the full, pay-walled article.

I don't think 1Password has any free tier, at least pretty sure it doesn't have free syncing across devices anymore or even ever.

Honest question, what's the difference between a pricing and service problem?

Maybe this is terrible logic but I would never trust an app that had 120 reviews and what appears to be a single person as the app owner with all my passwords.

Do you sincerely think the marketing team wants to names things so accurately as to admit the next version is worse than the previous? It seems like that would be a really bad strategy IMHO.

That is a crazy amount of flags. I wonder how many conflict with each other too

Doesn't that kinda presume that everyone should just "write a well-designed library"? If it's that much easier to just use a richer language shouldn't we just do that?

Can I play devil's advocate and say it's not black and white, and currently a lot of people make really bad decisions and the worst ones are the ones that affect surrounding people. Vaccines are another hot-button issue where maki

I thought that until I found Cursive which is a Clojure plugin for IntelliJ. I used IntelliJ for Ruby and Java for years. It's extremely good and probably much more familiar than something like Emacs if your background is with a GUI ed

What do you mean by "double digit times"? Your whole statement is almost completely lost because I can't tell if you think Lisp is fast or slow. Generally people say Lisps are good at prototyping and I'd agree, Clojure i

They don't look propped at all in the photos. Also I think propping would be hard for the cleaning robot as it looks like is a super simple little robot with small wheels and just rolls straightened over them.

I second this, Clojure gives you this both in memory and in the database via Datomic and reasoning about immutable data and pure functions is such a dream. Stateful programming is the worst, once you live in Clojure for a while everything e

How far did the Challenger blow up off the coast? Maybe not that far. I bet the trajectory also could possibly bias towards the sea in case of an emergency for a less dramatic landing. Wouldn't want a shuttle landing on a building eith

Clojure is definitely more than an experiment. It processes many millions of dollars daily through things like banks and even at Walmart. It might not be used a lot , but experiment is not accurate at all. You didn't flesh out your co

Much like Clojure is lisp on the Java virtual machine, Hy is a lisp on Python. There are definitely plenty of ways in which lisps vary and I've heard Hy tends to follow some Pythonisms more closely than other lisps may follow their hos

San Francisco and the Bay Area will also easily charge $20 for sometimes even just 12 ounces of beans. Pretty wild, but IMHO San Francisco has some of the best cafes, baristas, and actual drinks. I moved to Southern California and it'

If you don't mind me asking, how was her pain for the 30-days after period? Another poster said they were extremely lucky to only have suffered a few fevers but some people were in a coma.

The fact that ACH takes 3 days is actually because the original protocol was file and FTP based, where one bank would upload the transfer as a file to another's, and the other would return a file with exceptions or something within 3 d
