No need to pass -nw :) I usually install it in docker containers on servers. It's quite small (well, I think it's around 28M to install usually), since it's just an emacs built without gui support.

There's MessagePack for substential improvement of parsing speed and size of JSON while still being straight-forward to parse and debug. These guys (Capt'n'Proto) are for cases when that's not enough either. As I underst

Slightly offtopic, but for everyone interested please also check out Typora https://www.typora.io/ . Such a great Markdown editor with support of TeX inline blocks.

Voice is pretty good target for being separated from everything else. My "ok google" recognizes my voice pretty good even if loud music is playing, for example.

Well, sure, running code in interpreter does less optimizations than doing full compilation. I can write an interpreter for your C code which runs out of memory if you want :) So your "you can tell" depends on particular compiler

New release has "view -> toolbars -> single mode" (you need to untoggle the other two), so that you get 1 toolbar instead of two now. It looks pretty ok now. Silver background surprises me a bit (could do more macOS-style),

My feeling comes from "40% complete" on a milestone, where did you look at? https://i.imgur.com/DQoyGeW.png

Not sure about TS, but a good type system would not mean you know the structure of dynamic JSON. It would just guarantee that before accessing some field, you would define in some way your code path what to do in case there is that field an

TypeScript 2 milestone on github shows it's pretty far from a release (imho). I liked Facebook's Flow language more, but it seems to be less popular.

If you install Servo as of now and try to launch it you'll get a pop-up saying it's not signed (and it won't launch). So, to launch, you need to go to Applications, right-click on servo and choose "launch". Then it&

In my taste, it's also more correct to write "for" in a code which is more like statements (not expressions), and only use map/fold for stuff which is pure.

Python has an alternative: to use a technique called "patching". Basically, in Python, every module is just an object you can access, so in your unit-test, you can easily go into that module, replace a symbol inside a module (or a
