The OP is talking about the reference sources, not .NET Core (which is an unfinished effort, btw).

You know that Mono is cross-platform and Microsoft code only runs in Windows right?

This is a draft. Mono 4.0 hasn't been released yet. Who keeps publishing mono's release-notes drafts as HN news?

IMO the PR is not only disrespectful but also utterly wrong, from a technical point of view. If Make was that awesome of a project, it would have evolved to cover the needs of most developers, however, some tools grew around it to "wor

If you look for "C#", you don't get C# jobs. Typical keyword bug in job sites.

Interesting! So I guess this means that thanks to the Lightning network, we can have off-chain transactions without the need to rely on centralization (i.e. ChangeTip).

Ok sorry, I misused the term "pointer arithmetic" then. I think I was referring to memory indirection and the like. I find "ref" and "->" less cryptic than "&" and "*".

> Those operators aren't for pointer arithmetic… That's the point of my suggestion! One looking at them will think they are pointer arithmetic, which is not pretty for newcomers.

>First off, Rust doesn't have pointer arithmetic. It should have avoided the "*" and "&" symbols then, IMNSHO. C# does this partially by using the "ref" keyword.

I've recently attended a conference where they gave a D talk, and almost immediately after a Rust talk. This let me compare these two interesting languages in a quite detailed way. While Rust seems to be more safe in terms of trying to

What's up with the "pure" keyword? Has someone managed to work on this area so that the default is pure, and the opt-in keyword is "impure" instead?

I guess he meant to link to the RPL, which is the only license that the OSI has approved, but not the FSF.

That is mtgox/bitstamp getting hacked. I only use exchanges for buying/selling bitcoins, not for storing them.

Good point. Also the analogy that other person raised ("Your stuff can't be stolen. Period. A different thing is that you may suck at protecting your house") is a good one too. However, we're talking about different thin

Mtgox != Bitcoin For all intents and purposes, people having money in mtgox was the equivalent of people holding money in a crappy (security or fraud-wise) bank.

The poll talks about investments as valid sources of income (unrelated to "work"). If this is your case, then you can choose the "forever" answer.

Are you sure? And what if $programmer forgets to check what's in err? What would pid contain in that case? I mention this because I guess you quoted a kind of syntax that matches the one from Go. So then I'm guessing that Go would

I won't try Go until it implements generics and changes its hide-error-by-default behaviour.
