All of these are instances of doing something _wasteful_, which is the #1 issue he mentions in the list of things that cause performance degradation. Now, your argument seems to be: in the real world, there's so much waste, that virtua

I find that Go errs way too strongly on the explicit side, but overall it's still better than many other alternatives. For error handling I tend to write in a style where errors are either asserted out or "folded". If I do se

Is it? I find most of the "winning" tech deeply unproductive. Have you tried developing in a project with Webpack and Redux? It's kind of its own little hell. Everything is way too slow and complicated. Tasks that should take

Way back in the early 2010s I was very "excited" about coffee script and similar projects. They sounded like they should be great for productivity. When I actually tried to write a project in coffee script, the results were the op

What's the point of listening to 3 books per day? You need time to digest the ideas in a book. Sometimes I listen to one chapter in a book and I need a whole day to digest it: I get into a state where I don't want to listen to _an

Here's simple solution: create a product and sell it for money. Seriously. Stop giving stuff away for free. EDIT: let me elaborate. Writing open source is not a business strategy. At best, it's a gimmick, or outsourcing infrastruc

On the other hand, autocomplete interferes with your thought process and makes you used to not having "long" programming thoughts: you can only think one word at a time. I'm personally not there yet, but the way I've see

The point (when you take my comment in context) is that it doesn't matter if your editor does not detect typos, because the compiler will. Now, I admit, I find programming with autocomplete more productive in general, but the compiler

Size of vocabulary is the main problem in learning any language. I have the same feeling about Japanese, and had it about English while I was still learning it. I agree that in Japanese this is exacerbated by the Kanji system, where many wo

What collisions? You mean a kanji composed of two kanjis vs the two kanjis written separately but together? There's no technique per se. It's just the character size. Example: 好 vs 女子

ChatGPT's response is full of BS. 青い魚 is あおいさかな NOT あおいう お The middle character has nothing to do with the verb to be; it's an adjective suffix. 青い魚 is literally "blue fish". It's not a full sentence.

Japanese inherited this property from Chinese. You can tell by the word ordering. Japanese normally places the verb after the subject/object, but when a word of composed of two Kanjis, the verb comes first. Example: 来店 coming to a stor

That will not lead to a drop in fertility. Infact, that's exactly how high fertility societies operate. At least the Islamic ones, like Afghanistan for example, where the population doubled since 2001. Fertility has been dropping since
