I agree that this is one of the things that makes Haskell harder/scarier to learn, but I don't think that it makes it bigger.

There's a difference between active and passive use of self-driving with the current technology. Passive self-driving systems that take over when the human gets distracted/unwell are great because human vision exceeds computers wh

Further, slightly late, reply. I've been looking more at Reason. It's React (not strictly but plays nicely) + Typescript + Immutable JS + Redux all in one fully integrated package. Looks awesome, thanks for the reminder.

Just the garage. If you don't have a garage, you have to buy one apart which is about €20,000. Then you always have a trip to the car and there might still be issues with installing the EVSE.

They're quieter and safer and as Tesla has shown can have much better acceleration. The batteries are likely to survive 500k miles and there's a lot less moving parts so less things to go wrong.

It raises the value of houses that have garages where you can plug your car in. I'm looking at buying a house in Belgium and it's a definite issue.

They had k10k on the first page which I remember well. powazek.com was also great. It's a surprise that zeldman isn't on there, his site is still going strong. What was interesting to see was kottke.org that's been showing up

I do typically review my code just before I commit it as I write the commit message, but it's not much of a high-level overview.

I'm reading through Douglas Engelbart's 'Augmenting Human Intellect' at the moment. He talks about getting his thoughts down to a similar level, so that each one is a small note or thought which can be linked together. T

This is what Vanevar Bush was trying to create with his memex [0], plus further what Douglas Engelbart was trying to build upon [1]. Gordon Brander's patterns [2] (on HN recently) seems quite close to these and what you're after.

No, the React docs are great, working it mostly as a tutorial works well. Plus in hindsight I could have just looked through this: https://github.com/reactjs/reactjs.org/commits?author=gaearo...

Have you tried Wine? A lot of work has been done on it [0] with also help from the Steam devs [1] (that's mostly for games but it will have knock on benefits for Excel), and it was already reasonable back in 2010. [0]: https:/&#x

Thanks for the reply. Good to hear.

This would also be a benefit if only half the companies did this, then we'd stagger rush hour a bit more. Actually it would be more of a benefit if it were staggered in the winter since lots are on holiday in the summer. So I propose s

I agree with your synicism. But I still think it's a good thing. It might be a insignificant amount of plastic but it's a very visible use of plastic. Plus it's one less company using plastic which raises pressure on the othe

My apologies, I'm guess I'm just too used to seeing internal politics everywhere.

Thanks for your reply and your openness. It's great that you find the time to answer random guys on HN. Since you're here... I do wonder, how much of the React documentation did you write? The 'style' of the writing seem

Yes, a double-edged sword. It's to the credit of the React developers that they've welcomed him. I was just curious as to how the internal politics work there.

I find it quite interesting how much of the public face of React that Dan Abramov has become. I really like the openness with which he speaks via his blog, but it feels like all the important React announcements come through him and I'

The only thing that smelled like a path to enlightenment seemed to be Haskell's QuickCheck [0]. It's actually going out searching for bugs for me, rather than me having to pretend like I can think of all the failure cases. I haven

Also you can get ripgrep and fzf plugins for vim which are fantastic. I think VSCode uses ripgrep too.

Configuring IIS is much better in the command line. You either have a complex and slow process of going through menus and ticking boxes, or you put all the settings in one semi colon separated string and it's done in one command.

All the more reason to post your thoughts to your own blog and then push those to Twitter and Facebook, then the core data is your own.

Sorry to be pedantic - but I didn't think that 'pandoc' was an actual document format purely a tool for converting between formats. Do you mean that you do your writing in kind of a 'pandoc flavoured' markdown? [0]
