I believe that one crucial feature of Make is that it does not plan the construction of a target from start to finish but that construction and planning are interleaved: Make does not look at the file system and build a plan which it then e

The article uses the argument that an investor risks losing the investment and still the investment is taxed. Maybe there are national differences but where I live only gains from capital that are realised (dividends paid or when an asset i

The design of the iPhone is guided by what is technically possible as much as by ergonomics. As the size of our hands hasn't changed, how can a 4.7 inch phone now be perfect when previously 3.5 inch was deemed perfect? Here is one reas

The V8 engine is implemented in C++ and so I'm sure Andreas has a good grasp of the relative benefits of FP and OO. In the context of your observation about inequality in the UK I find the "classless society" actually funny.

The "classless society" was mentioned by Andreas Rossberg, the author of the talk. He works at Google on the JavaScript V8 engine as a compiler engineer and is on the JavaScript (ECMAScript) language committee. I'd call this

Telling from the number of recent implementations, Literate Programming enjoys a bigger following than I had expected. Here is my implementation of a similar tool in OCaml: https://github.com/lindig/lipsum . I have some

You could stress this in the meantime. I noticed many other comments also requested a show reel.

This looks good but I didn't find example pages that would back up the claims. So: make these more prominent as I would never sign up before seeing these.

As inspiration, I would suggest to look at the virtual machine (byte code interpreter) of the Lua language. You can find several papers describing the design at http://www.lua.org/docs.html . The code base is also very small

If your are looking for code to break a C compiler, you can try my tool Quest https://github.com/lindig/quest . It tries to to generate code that shows that a C compiler handles parameter passing wrong. I usually run it

Two women are dancing to music at work in a tech company and the author compares this to a scene at a strip club as men are watching this. Unless this was a regular exercise, what was everybody expecting? Nobody taking notice?

Good luck! Is this a stealth project because the service or product wasn't mentioned? If not, I would suggest to use the exposure on HN to get some feedback.

I've just started using Harvest but I like what I see here, too. I'm not sure there is enough of a difference (price, features) to make me switch but I see potential and the price is competitive.

I would like this as a consumer but believe it is difficult to establish as a business. Delivery companies like FedEx, DHL or national mail services could offer it and there would be no way to defend your business against them. Also: wouldn

HR is more than hiring: benefits, vacations, sabbaticals, training. Accounting would in particular have to deal with orders being made by employees and invoicing.

How do these super flexible structures integrate accounting, HR, and legal roles?

The code probably could be made faster by avoiding passing tuples (start, length) around as these are allocated on the heap. However, I found it a little bit more abstract.

You might realise that parsing HTML or C with regular expressions is a bad idea.
