It seems like some of you have some real love for Godot. How come you decided to use/recommend Godot over Unity when it was less mature? Was it much better along some axis that Unity didn't provide? What makes it better along that

I really like the steelman interpretation. I suspect that often times, PG's trying to express some sort of core idea, but readers bring their own context with it, and apply it to something else, in this case, YC. And in a different thr

It's because he doesn't believe getting into YC is the achievement. Creating a company with users / profitability / growth is. You can get into YC and still fail with your company. And it's desirable for founders an

When I started as a web dev, I simply didn't know about them. The frameworks I was using didn't really emphasize it, so I glossed over it.

I also didn't like SQL before, but I've come to realize it's mainly because there's a boundary/interface between set-based modeling and imperative/functional based modeling. The former models things as records

What did you replace Elm with in your later work with FRP systems? Also, with your Elm-anima project, what were the lessons and takeaways? It seemed like it was working, but what are the limitations of the approach?

The site is "Future of Coding". He assumed most of his audience were language wonks, and you don't have to go far to run into FRP. That said, it's best not to assume.

What did you find that you had to hack away? Was it notions of how to do things from your previous experience as a programmer? Or was it more specific to the domain problem at hand? If it's the latter, then I'd argue that's p

It looks like the developer tool you see in the browser. Strangely retro futuristic.

Are these the outputs that you'd have to generate because your client has to submit reports to the SEC? Or am I misunderstanding?

by iamwil 7y ago
Wouldn't that mean clients would have to give you templates in CSS / markup? Or would you maintain different templates for different clients? And then the task would just be mapping the data generated to the templates, mad lib sty

On the other hand, I'm on the other side on this. I kept thinking, "get to the point, what are you trying to say?"

I was working on software in the 3D printing space back in 2012, and I too thought it was going to be something big that looked like a toy. However, I got out once I realized that speed of prints mattered a lot of consumers. And the current

Whether Microsoft will stay like this just depends largely on their current strategic positioning and how their organization is set up to make money now, rather than how they acted in the past. If the incentives are aligned, they'll be
