Seriously, it is so good. I wish I could still program in OCaml professionally, as I did in the past.

That depends, how much money do you owe the bank? As Getty famously said, if you owe the bank $100, you have a problem. If you owe the bank $100 million, the bank has a problem. The company I work at has only about 100 people, but we sell t

In case anyone's wondering about the difference, a &channel is local to the IRC server it's created on, while a #channel is globally usable across the IRC network.

We use a graph database at my company (OrientDB, having migrated from Neo4J). I don't really know what we need it for, aside from giving the graph database guy something fun to do. We also use Postgres as our main DB. As far as I can t
