> hedge long bets with shorts I am curious, without sharing details obviously, have you actually been able to successfully pull it off or do you expect to see some hits due to changes in direction?

This is an example of parallel system that i like: http://librestats.com/2012/10/16/r-at-12000-cores/ . i haven't done anything near this scale, although, that would be a goal to aim for. Although,

I was about to refute your argument by proposing creating a union type. Here is a relevant reference: https://realworldocaml.org/v1/en/html/functors.html (This idiom is a bit of a historical error. It would

Typesystem is not the same as syntax? I dont believe raising ugliness in syntax as an issue. Of course, I do mention the ugliness in Haskell and that is in special cases where the overhead of boxing is significant. So, yeah, we could move o

I liked the layout. The main take away for me was the <today> in Red. It may be a trivial feature,but with so many widgets pounding my eye, it was nice to zoom in to todays date. I can see master planners (in inventory world) sticking

I was one of those folks who actually bought the personal license. Over years, SmallEiffel came along and improved the ecosystem. Of course, now Eiffel has a community/enterprise model. In any event, I do think that they were pricing t

I never understood the following : Eiffel had a better syntax, better support for core issues, Void type, design by contract, multiple-inheritance and an intermediate virtual machine for portability although the most common target was C cod

I would add - Object Oriented Software Construction (2nd. Bertrand Meyer) I would recommend Eiffel if you want to elevate OO design. The issue with the GOF book that I have is that there is a slant towards composition as opposed to inherita

I would recommend Michael Snoyman's book on yesod ( http://www.yesodweb.com/ ) to get a practical understanding specially from a crud perspective. I found this book to be very helpful: http://chimera.labs.orei

I am not sure if we could conclude that the demand is off. I believe that the traders who were controlling the inventories have finally closed their trades and walked away while they are ahead. Oil of course is a geopolitical commodity and

the article seems to suggest that the hackers had access to stolen data, Target comes to mind within the US. Did Target share the hacked data to the FBI so the feds can cross check with the data irs released and send the offending company t

I first started using ocaml (f# actually and then re-wrote it in ocaml) for writing a simple interpreter to generate java code from mysql schema tables to deal with hibernate boiler plates etc. The code was much succinct than a comparable p

Smalltalk was a great start, though, that should not have been the benchmark for implementing object oriented languages. There are some valid concerns about oo that were imo missing in mainstream languages such as Java/C++: uniform ac

I can relate to that because it took me a while to using cabal repl actively as i code. Once i discovered cabal repl, I found that i could test my database (yesod) business logic during my normal development cycle. This was very re-assuring

I am a cofounder of a small company that has a patented process for removing oil spills. We are not in the green yet but the only reason we could hold out against the big oil companies in the face of any attempt to take over our technology

Elm was my first choice for a different side project. I went away because then elm did not have, or it was my lack of knowledge,support for crud widgets. I miss the elm signal approach in haxe for one thing. Here is the link to my repo so t

I will have to take a look if fponticelli: https://twitter.com/jdegoes/status/471319014614892544 , thinks it is. My app is not a pure web app, it has some client components such as excel plugins that need to tal

Yesod is awesome I can't see myself going back to less typesafe database schema tools. The choice I made seemed like a safer path, perhaps not ideal. The application that I am trying to put together is a realtime websockets application

I have been using this site for (yesod 1.4) [ http://www.yesodweb.com/book/introduction ] and I found the documentation current. Is there something that doesn't compile?

by haxeny1 11y ago
For my side project, I use yesod/websockets for the server and haxe for the client. I feel ok with that choice instead using hpaste. Though eventually I would like to see a complete haskell stack. @Lewissham: about the fourth attempt,
