The main reason not to use OCaml but Rust is imho "no runtime needed" (aka better-C). This is why they considered Rust complementary to OCaml (which would not be true with F#, the multicore issue will be addressed soonish).

Dunno, but one of their employee (Laurent Mazare) is actively making OCaml bindings for various data science libraries (such as https://github.com/LaurentMazare/ocaml-torch or https://github.com/Laurent

Yes, it's called a closure.

Well for example in the upcoming 4.12, the core team has integrated plenty of "practical" language features (such as support for iOS/OSX ARM64, or many changes related to multicore).

Some people are already exploring this idea of "language subset". For example, Dhall ( https://dhall-lang.org/ ) could be seen as a subset of Haskell, with less features but guaranteed termination!

Anonymous record in SML is equivalent to polymorphic record in OCaml ? (basically, "structural" record)

Mirage OS is exploring this idea (building custom VM imagine instead of just a docker container).

Too dangerous! Your JS/Python/Lua code could do plenty of non desirable stuff (infinite loop, download trojan from the internet...etc). Dhall lang for example forbids all this, but still allow you to write simple functions to avoi

I did a submission 2 days ago about an impressively smart optimization in Clang (GCC doesn't) from a badly linear isEven function : https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=24049872

This is exactly the point of the original article by Monzo. Microservices don't provide any tool to deal with access control, thus you have to implement it yourself. I rather avoid that when I can.

Unrelated to the article, but the author (Oleg) is one of the star of the typed functional programming world. For example, one of his research project (BER MetaOCaml) is about generating typesafe OCaml at runtime (to improve performance mos

The author of this website (Luc Devroye) has been my professor at McGill, and he might be the most impressive professor I've ever met in my student life. He only does classes at 8:30 and on blackboard, with a lot of humor and history o

I think you are a bit off for the average price of this kind of project in developed countries. Let's take France which have a strong history in HSL (thus a lot of experience, which helps reducing the costs): the new Tours-Bordeaux li

I really like this library. I've used it to implement a minimal React+Redux toy "framework" when I was spending hours in cranky trains in India. It turns out in 200 lines of TypeScript I can have a view library which has ever

Are you actually saying that France is given by inequality and racism compared to the US? Are you actually saying that the US and Germany have a superior food to France? US is superior to France in many ways, but clearly not those ones!

It's a thread about a rail engineering project so I was assuming the crowd was interested by those stuff...
