Not the commenter you replied to, but I see where you are coming from. I see things differently though, I like comments like the above because if I'm interested in Zuo or scripting lisp/scheme in general, I like finding related pr

Congrats! What kind of dependency vetting and monitoring is required for something like this where compliance is part of the picture?

I think the cost savings is more than just the cves. You also get faster features and have to write fewer tests. You can use higher level abstractions with fewer rough edges. You may even be able to take advantage of the ecosystem more. And

I'm not arguing for or against, but: > You will lose all of that in a rewrite I don't think you lose everything in a rewrite in general - you still have all of the edge cases and business logic in the old code that you translat

I actually use fly.io for the rare time I want to run something in the cloud, for exactly the reason that they allow you to pre-pay a fixed amount, and once that runs out, your instance gets shut down. This means that I can't misconfig

Your claim assumes that a small loss in performance in networking will lead to a loss in performance of the overall web browser, which is only true if networking is the bottleneck while browsing. And it usually isn't.

I have over 500 online accounts. Imagine if all of them used a login method where I had to have backup devices registered, instead of just me backing up the credentials (like I do today with a password manager). With backup devices, wheneve

The android app doesn't always notify me of new email - and if it doesn't notify me for one email, it won't notify me again until I get another email (which might be a day or two apart). That's my only complaint. I have

It'd be cool to take this a step further - allow for a tree-like setup of as many calculators as you want. Each number in one calculator's equation could be expanded out into a separate calculator where the number was computed, et

Did you consider writing the bindings yourself? In my experience when I've needed a few dozen APIs, it wasn't too bad. It certainly seemed like less work than two native apps. But perhaps that wasn't the case for you?

Most bank accounts I've ever had in the US let you set up bank-to-bank transfers via the web site. It only requires a routing number and an account number.

To me it sounds like this: "Sam enjoys the paper?" could have emphasis on "Sam" and sound fine - it is asking if it is Sam or someone else who enjoys the paper. "Sam enjoys the paper?" could have emphasis on &q

Right, I didn't say the rule in chess was exactly that, but "basically" that - which effectively is the same. The rules could certainly be written out in more legalese, but I found them easy to understand as-is without resort

One king can walk two spaces on a turn without getting too close to the other king. Then the other king might roll high enough to land on a square that the first king passed through on the previous turn.

I assume it is only checkmate if black's reply can't get him out of check by the end of his turn.

> that implies illegal moves are allowed in the intermediate moves Seems simple enough to define illegal moves as moves that end your turn in check, which is basically the same definition as regular chess. I don't immediately see th

Nim, Haskell, OCaml (bytecode only I believe, unfortunately), D perhaps, and Go (AIX 7.2+) are not bad options, depending on your needs and taste. I'm hoping mrustc or the gcc frontend become viable too.

We still develop on and support platforms where we use the vendor compilers (which don't have many of those modern features).

I deal with issues like this about once a month. It may not happen where you work, but it definitely still happens. If it really never happens where you work, consider yourself lucky.
