We should stop saying "isomorphic" because the explanation relies on two orthogonal concepts that ensure that "isomorphic" will only ever be applied to Javascript. That seems possibly self-serving if not only misleading

Hahhahaa this is a hilarious. I went to a school like this that was super paranoid and also had a counselor person. People put into these roles always came across as psycho and condescending to me. What a better way to bring young minds

Yes, I'm trying to feel out the necessary work to get Cython and other Cpython modules working by hacking the Python headers to make a plain Cpython C module compile to a micro-python compatible module. It's not clear that there

Attn: Kivy can really use this for mobile deployements, but we use Cython and almost everyone needs cpython C modules. We need to investigate making drop-in replacements for Python.h and other cpython headers to stub out reference counting

Wow. Employees tend to have gone to college nearby their employers' headquarters. Sources monitoring the unfolding pattern indicate that people also tend to enroll in universities near where they live. Film at 11.

Pass in requests. Get responses back. Same input, same output, except for potentially dirtied DB hits. This is somewhat of a good fit for a functional language program that just handles request after request. For API's Haskell migh

I decided I can’t do this job anymore so I gave my notice of resignation. Unless you really need to get back to the home country to fix anything, from what you've said, this is lose-lose for everyone. You probably spent a lot on you

I'm confident you can get into iOS too. Most important thing I ever re-learn over and over is that my brain is most efficient at writing the next line of code. Get to hello world as fast as possible. If you want an abstraction, like

The behavior in the node community as you have described can be taken as an example of just how community-minded FOSS developers naturally become, and not necessarily even slightly out of some sense of geek-altruism. The choice to support

Linux is younger than I am. GNU is two years older than I am. Anyone making smart statements about the long-term prospects of a spontaneously organizing tidal wave erupting from a vacuum needs to take a step back, stop talking, and find s

Make it twice as hard and require half as many points. Getting 100% at anything signals the end of learning, not the beginning of mastery.

Got my invite from several months ago when it was Crowdhoster! Scant weeks away from using it! I was going to forward it to LPP, thinking they would (and didn't) never get to my email about their own crowd-funding effort, but in the

Kickstarter is a noun in public consciousness more-so than others. It's a branding advantage for those seeking to crowd fund. Say "crowd funding" even when using Kickstarter.

Work for a year, then go to school. It will measure your skill vs your expectations. It will inform you as to the value in being where you are as opposed to where you think you can be with four years time focused in a few mostly parallel

I've been getting really concrete with FP and programming in general lately to build a bridge between the programming and the machine. Intermediate representations is one of the more fruitful areas I've been mining.

Going to be watching Nginx and other deals very closely as far as their long-term health. I could take a giggly pot-shot at web development in general by proposing that they want to monetize node.js via a browser-base service to live one&#

My recipe for the best possible syllabus for CS 103: * Turing machine -- just the tape and making it do the equivalent of procedures so that we can compose things. Brainfuck is a valid homework medium. * A relevant ISA such as ARM -- We

"The guts of CS are a great place to expand after a certain point ." "...an introductory course is the wrong place" I'm glad we're in agreement.

C is about as close to teaching the mechanics of the computer as you can get while staying portable. I've found that my ISA knowledge "just works" on any architecture though, so I would feel okay teaching something like C--

Roles are mixed in Django almost without exception. I blame this on the fact that you want to make changes to M, V, and C during a UI interaction while usually only one URL gets called, and so the view updates the M, V, and C. It's l
