So like org mode and other packages they want to include magit in Emacs. Just got bigger but magit being such a great package I think they should do it. Hope the copyright assignment happens and FSF does it.

I can't. Atom has given me electron trauma (older versions about a couple of years back).

KeepassXC does not support the latest kdbx 4 format which was recently released with Argon2 support. (which is supposed to be more secure). It will be supported in the next release 2.3.0. So for now I use Keepass until it supports kdbx 4 th

Deterministic password managers (stateless) are not necessarily more secure than the normal database password managers. I have linked a HN discussion and blog post about this. https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=13016132

Keepass and its various forks are open source. Keepass itself uses dotNet so Linux guys need mono which not all people like. Those people use KeepassXC (a fork of KeepassX which is Keepass in C++ and is unmaintained). I use Keepass. Reasona

Okay so instead of two competing products we now have one.

The fun part is about the list not the languages themselves. Benchmarks, reviews and rankings are just the perfect time killers for me but job oriented lists have nothing new to say for now.
98.
by kronos29296 9y ago
No fun in that. Every list has Java at the top followed by C, C++ and Javascript. Maybe Python or C# next (cuz Microsoft). Every Job oriented programming language list for the last few years.

"So what are the Top Ten Languages for the typical Spectrum reader?" This is survey on top programming languages among spectrum readers. So maybe spectrum readers are not into Kotlin.

Couldn't something like micro python and Cython replace Zerynth? Reads like the marketing post that it is. Starts off with interesting stuff and ends with promo. It also looks very proprietary to me. Just add more FOSS and I will defin

Thanks for explaining the License. Though this needs more attention.

Or Haskell if you want to go the FP route while CL or Clojure for the Lisp. Or python for dynamic (atleast more popular than Ruby which is more concentrated on Rails ecosystem).

It's not so much as trouble with pointers as trouble with visualizing algorithms and data structures. Try implementing some moderately complex one in C. It reads like a monster. A dynamic language like Python would have a simpler imple

Python would be nice if everybody uses Python 3. Simple dynamic and most of the Open source stuff is scriptable using python. So daily automation is a real possibility. Atleast that's what I am doing.

Some Google services don't work properly on Firefox or show annoying banners. It is just a pain. I just moved to chromium.

Numpy, Scipy and a lot of other numerical libraries use Fortran for the underlying operations along with C. Because Fortran is just faster for such operations and will continue to be. Numba is still very much alpha. Julia is still immature

I have been using vim/neovim for 6 months now and thought that I was making a good use of the editor (I came from Atom and what a good decision that was). Now this just opened new ways of using the editor that I never knew. (I have onl

I guess you should not eat candy received from strangers and a one solution to all problems product from a salesman. Hope this stops people from destroying their bodies because of chronic diarrhoea.

My main gripe with gitlab navigation is I can't see the languages split up (chart) quickly like in Github. Other than that since I am not a heavy user of the website (more on time on git than on website) I find no other problems. Also

So it compiles your code into a bundle with ruby interpreter so that you don't need one during execution? It sounds like what youtube-dl does in Windows by adding the interpreter to the executable. Useful but not in speeding things up

React hasn't been relicensed.(Maybe it will soon) This one is also fairly recent. I may be wrong but many FB projects seem to be using this license. It is just that React is popular enough to cause problems orgs using it.

Looks promising. First neovim and now this. Even if it doesn't replace emacs (which it won't) if it can enrich the community and maybe bring more users while fixing archaic code bases of hard to find errors and UBs then it is stil

Its nice but an index would be cool. I mean its so long and an index would help navigation greatly.

What about the free ones like Dive into python, LPTHW and others. People won't buy as much as the non free ones so the ratings may not be as accurate.
