If you're looking for a really light SQL library for Clojure, I recommend yesql: https://github.com/krisajenkins/yesql

So Coffeescript for example is just a fat regex plus a call to eval?

It's not inherently a zero-sum game. It's just that the rich are doing everything in their power to capture all the surplus, which makes it feel like a zero-sum game for the rest of us.

I wish I had known more about the legacy tech stack I'm working with, when I was interviewing. I would have still taken the job but it would have been nice to know about the extent of the COBOL horrors ahead of time in order to mentall

I see. Thanks for clarifying!

As far as I know, you can't yet compile Rust to Javascript. I don't see why not--Rust uses LLVM as a backend, and LLVM bytecode can compile to Javascript with emscripten. Although, I don't really see why you would want to,

You must get plenty of sleep then. Good for you!

by kyllo 12y ago
Yeah, I guess it's not every time anymore, to the extent that developers tend to just package copies of all their app's dependencies with the installer, rather than try to update a shared DLL that may be locked by another progra

To prevent DLL Hell, in other words. Again, not a problem on Linux because Linux keeps numbered versions of .so files. So it's not that Windows has to restart after replacing a file that is in use. It's just that it would rather

by kyllo 12y ago
Windows locks executable files and dells while they are being used, so it's not possible for an installer to overwrite them Exactly, and Linux doesn't do that, hence my comment. The Windows model is flawed--why do you need to lo

by kyllo 12y ago
Cool, but will you still have to restart your computer every time you install something?
824.
by kyllo 12y ago
Well, now the different classes inside your application are more loosely coupled, but your business logic is more tightly coupled to a DI framework.
825.
by kyllo 12y ago
So the setter gets called automatically, but now you have to store the object names as strings or in an XML file. How is that better?

having a pointer/reference deep into a vector or some nested element of a tree requires a garbage collector or is unsafe (runs the risk of becoming dangling) Yes, this is a problem, certain data structures need to be intrusive in ord

The most popular implementation of the JVM itself is written in C++. But more importantly, Java has experienced a multitude of serious security bugs over the years.

For example, if an instance of House requires a Door it is not enough to just require('Door'). You still have to do the equivalent of `new Door()` in your House module to get an instance. By doing so within the House module you j

That's because it's a higher-level abstraction than other web frameworks. Ripping out a layer and dropping down to a lower level of abstraction is always going to be a lot of work.

I've heard from several ex-Amazon employees that average employee tenure is less than a year and a half. That is not a good sign.
831.
by kyllo 12y ago
Yeah this guy mentions having a goal to save enough to not need to work for 2 years. That seems fairly unambitious at that salary. If I were in his shoes I'd like to think I would stick it out a few more years and be able to just retir

What would you estimate his BF% at based on the photos?
833.
by kyllo 12y ago
Sure, but not all human tissue is either muscle fiber or fat. You gain other non-lipid mass in addition. Some of it is from increases in connective tissue. A tiny amount is from increased bone density. A large portion of it is from retainin

Yeah, that's expected. SS is a beginner program designed to be done for only 3-6 months. When your progress on your lifts stalls out, it's time to switch to a periodized intermediate program such as Texas Method[1], which will hav

Supermarket chicken is injected with saline solution to make it look more plump and appealing. This solution, as well as much of the water that was inside the meat to begin with, evaporates during cooking.

Yeah, Starting Strength is a gainer program, it's designed to make you as big and strong as you can possibly get in a 3-6 month time frame. I put on about 30 pounds from doing it, mostly muscle in my legs, butt, and back. Some of my ga

You're right, but that's not what it's about. Try putting yourself on a strictly regimented, hypo-caloric, laboratory controlled diet for more than a few days. It will consume all the willpower you have and then some. The p

Yeah, I can't help but think we've reinvented the wheel. Modern dynamic languages like Ruby, Python, JS, Clojure, are just now catching up to the state-of-the-art that Smalltalk achieved in the 1980s.
839.
by kyllo 12y ago
Yes. Smalltalk environments export an image that's a snapshot of the entire state of the VM. It's like a reloadable core dump of the VM. It's a binary though, not plaintext. But there is also a sophisticated distributed versi

Yeah, since it's a dynamically typed lang with inheritance and late binding, doesn't performing static analysis on Ruby code to determine whether a method is defined or not, basically require a solution to the halting problem? I&#
