Otto did not raise any rounds. Having external stakeholders would've made their shady deal even harder to pull.

The way I interpret it is, explicit patent license implies _less_: - Explicit patent license specifies why / how it can be revoked. - Without an explicit patent license, patent infringement case (by Facebook) against a party that uses

thanks for your contentful comment. I'm pretty sure everyone in HN will appreciate this. "modulo" in this sense does make sense, because it's abstracting that part out and mapping it to a equivalence relation.

phantomjs is a lot of work to maintain, and the developer officially deprecated it, recommending people to use chrome headless mode instead.

Point of no return is when the VCs wire money to you. These people tend to exaggerate their funding prospective, saying things like "they backed out". Ultimately VCs don't owe anybody money and startups are not entitled with

Unsafe allows you to dereference raw pointers and foreign-function calls, but you cannot go around the borrow checker, which is what's causing annoyance. That said, you can create raw and dereference raw pointers, which lets you to do

Your "x and x and and x" sentence is about hard to parse! I was wondering whether you hated handlebars and mustache also.

Only time I had C++ on my resume was when I was looking for my first internship and was desperate to pad my resume with _something_... Hey, I took a course in C++, so I can put it down, right? I soon removed it afterwards after knowing what

Rust is one of my favorite programming language, and yet I learned how much I missed java after learning Rust. The fact that everything is dynamically dispatched and non-primitives are referential type allows you to program things without t

Agreed. It's very unnatural to represent data structures with circular references, or pointers in general. I had to re-think how I approach certain problems to make it more Rust-friendly.

It also depends on how "deep" you want to get. A lot of built-in constructs uses unsafe under the hood. Vector (Rust's dynamic arrays) does memory allocation / resizing under the hood for example, and there's no saf

is there a RFC link for this? I got bitten by this once by attempting to return a derived iterator similar to `x.iter().map(...).filter(...)` example you had, but I couldn't figure out the return type of such function as Rust forbids t

I'm assuming that since he's a high-profile hire from an acquisition with a lot of vesting cycles attached to it, there are more required legal procedures including time window to amend things.

To be honest, that is how the original civilization games feel like. Very sparse and unfriendly onboarding.
