I agree, I suspect this is more of a "new car" problem than an EV problem.

(disclaimer: I develop Cursive, the IntelliJ option for Clojure). In the recent 2023 survey, Cursive and Calva are pretty much neck and neck, and between them just edge out Emacs. So it's pretty much an even split these days between Em

I really don't, I definitely get annoyed at the website, and I get way more annoyed at websites which make it hard to say no to the cookies easily.

Related to the subthread above, and something I've been thinking about - how do you detect when the user has stopped speaking so the bot can respond?

I was actually wondering this myself yesterday. So it's not possible to plug a different tree-sitter implementation in for a niche language?

We're pretty sure our daughter has PDA. It's relatively mild, but when it strikes there's nothing virtuous about it. She would fight us continuously on almost everything from the age of 2.5. After 5.5 or so she settled down a

There are also issues like phantom braking which Teslas are prone to (or were, I'm not sure if that's better these days). That's part of a whole class of problems which the AVs suffer from which humans don't. I think the

Typed Clojure is still a thing and I think Ambrose is still working on it, but I don't think anyone actually uses it in practice. A few companies tried it and then backed it out, but that was a while ago now. It may be better recently

Yes, me. I develop an IDE for Clojure code which is a mix of Clojure and Kotlin. I like both, but what I like about Clojure is the interactive programming, not the lack of types. If there were a statically typed Clojure I’d be all over it.

This is already well established in humans for toxoplasmosis, for example. It’s a parasite rather than a virus, but it doesn’t seem crazy that a virus might do similar things.

It’s wild to me how prevalent and yet how poorly understood dyscalculia is. It’s around 6% in the Caucasian population, which pretty much guarantees one kid has it in every classroom. And yet, there’s very little good info on what actually

I really wish all the voice dictation/transcription had better language support. I'd really like to be able to say "Send a message to <my wife> in Spanish" and have it use Spanish dictation, and similarly to say &q

I didn't say anything about JS being bad. But this article is predicated on the assumption that doing things fast is good. I think it's hard to argue that if Eich had spent 20 days (or perhaps even 30 days!!!!) we would have been

> Brendan Eich implemented the first prototype for JavaScript in 10 days, in May 1995. And 28 years later, the world is still investing untold millions of dollars, and untold person-years of effort, working around it.

I also use Vinegar, it's great. I recommend the developer's other apps, too. They tend to be simple apps which do one useful thing well, and also have a sense of humour.
