There is no free market for drugs or medicine. I also don't think markets converge on free over time.

Floobits was forced to write python 6 ... or 2/3 ... for our Sublime Plugin. The python3 experience has been awful enough to completely dissuade me from using python for any other project. Completely breaking backwards compatibility

I read a study a while ago that addressed this exact problem - a CS professor gave an intro class a test on CS. The students who had a consistent view of how a computer works (no matter if it was wrong or not) turned into programmers. Eve

Uber makes a nice profit in mature markets, but that does not mean their current margins are sustainable. Its hard to imagine a future where they don't pay drivers more.

There is a decent chance your problem has been fixed by now - ggreer and I have used the Floobits plugin daily for the last couple of years. On more than one occasion, a former Screenhero user has said exactly the opposite to us. Of course

YC mostly never negotiates, and you'd be crazy to turn them down when they refuse.

The translation to C would be * const, not const *. Const is strictly better than let because it prevents a certain class of bugs - use it everywhere possible instead of let/var.

It seems like VCs ought to be more sophisticated than to naively apply the model for SaaS to low margin consumer facing products, but I don't know enough - this really could be the case. Similarly, I have no understanding of all the mo

They evidently don't in LA or SF (as opposed to Norway in the winter). Otherwise, we would necessarily see far lower rates of homelessness in those places.

To the best of my knowledge: 1. Rust is working on cross compiling support (very hard atm). 2. Rust can (pretty trivially) interface with C.

ST3 is still being developed, if slowly. If you use it, I'd encourage you to buy it.

I believe only ST 2 on OS X relies on the system python - 2.6 or whatever python happens to be in the path. Sublime 3 ships with python 3.3 on all platforms. edit: If you are asking about the Floobits plugin, ST 2 on OS X shells out to the

Thats not the way water rights work at all - eg, farmers get a percentage of the water from a given stream. Check out SSC[1] for an in depth review of water policy in CA. 1. http://slatestarcodex.com/2015/05/11&#x2

Your sentiment is strange to me - I've only ever seen unit tests as absolutely worthless. The reason integration tests are flaky is exactly the same reason they are valuable.
