My theory is that the FP folks would have seen more success had they figured out ways to bring their features to mainstream languages, rather than asking people to adopt wholesale their weird languages (from an average programmer's poi

Unfortunately, many geek forums accept cynicism, negativity, sarcasm and snark, and downvote a happy post, usually with some excuse like "doesn't contribute to the discussion".

> there's always things missing and and lag behind native Flutter specifically or cross-platform UI frameworks in general? I don't mind it being different, but does the app feel unpolished?

Does that mean that UI will automatically get updated when the model changes, and you no longer need a mess of dependencies, like "if A changed, update X and Y".

It would probably be worth it to restore trust: Refund all the money they've taken from this company for the last year, and apply a credit to their account for 3x that amount, say.

Yeah, it's interesting that every community has its own strongly-held beliefs that you can't question. As an example, when I disagreed with criticism of AMP on HN, I was downvoted. This happened a few times. I had given a reason t

I agree with your points, and teams should be freed to compete without having to prop up Windows, but that doesn't mean that Microsoft shouldn't have a presence in mobile. Specifically, I think they should build a pocket PC: http

Your idea of zero-slack efficiency is interesting theoretically, and I haven't heard it articulated as well as you did. But I don't think it's valid in a practical sense, because you can't just ignore the cost of (say) m

Your point is indeed interesting, and true in a theoretical sense, but not in a practical sense, I think. People and companies do build in buffers, because efficiency != best-case efficiency. For example: https://en.wikipedia.org

I suppose C++-style method calls are a limited form of OO, without asynchronicity, running in independent threads when required, no shared state, ability to upgrade or restart a failed component...

It looks polished at first glance. The bottom line isn't clear because there's too much information. I'm expecting a single number in 60-point font like "You'll save X amount of money by renting instead of buying&qu

Sorry for not reading your original post carefully till now. However, I think my point still stands: if you have a product that people are paying you money for, say a camera, and you improve it, your product is more useful, and so you can c

There may be some people for which my advice is bad. But otherwise, these are lessons. If you don't focus, and so get nothing done, you'll learn to focus, by saying no to some things, even if everyone tells you they're critic

Throw yourself into it, such as by speaking Chinese, in this example. I've learnt much more that way than theoretical reading, videos, etc. I learnt 100x more about running a startup after starting one, and initially doing a bad job, t
