So, the code base is immutable. Hence, it is only possible to add new terms, not remove / change existing ones. My impression is, that all terms that used a wrongly implemented term also ned to have a new definition appended. The hash

Well, no? As stated in the article, the truffles and oysters were hidden. This is assumingly because people optimise for most expensive dishes. If one would optimise for calories, she'd just take the cake and fatty meats (which are als

So, in the end everything boils down to negotiation. Obviously, if you can't negotiate the $1mil deal, then you won't get it. Furthermore, the market is not perfect. Just because somebody wants to do the job for $60k it not mean t

This sounds the the classical "intelligence being something people have". It is futile to talk about 100% correctness in this field > ... machine which hasn't even the slightest semblance of a shared cultural context ...

Indeed it is! But we still need to reset the web app entirely after having used it. Service worker might cache messages.

Or is it extra safety to use the CLI? Arguably it is easier to verify that a webapp is not sending the data to a 3rd party, than it is to verify that the CLI tool doesn't (easy network inspection from the developer tools).

These types of software has, to me, some big pitfalls: 1. The administrative burden: In over for the software to have any value, the user is imposed a huge documentation burden all the time. 2. Privacy: This is probably the worst. Imagine t

I think we are in perfect understanding. I, myself, also do all of my work in English even though my mother tongue is a small language of 6 million people.

It is already fragmented, the non English fragments are just not at liberated. I think it would be great with some more language diversity. It would reduce the barrier for a lot of people to enter the programming world. (and remember, it is

This is the view of an insurance as the reversed loan, where you pay the loan before you get the principal paid out. It guess the "perfect insurance" could be obtained by reversing the reversed loan? In case of something catastrop

What is the distinction between learning and developing? Can you develop software without learning?

Yes indeed, as number theorists should be allowed to ditto.

My thesis is, that proclaimed functional programmers spend more time on mathematical structures than implementation details. Hence a sum type and not a tagged union (how the target evaluater distinguishes should not name the type).

These kind of comments are very interesting, and I bump into them now and then when I express aspirations to do something. On the other hand driven people comment the same way on people "just" taking a job working 9 to 5 and appre

VAT is only regressive if you assume that everybody have a constant spending regardless of their income. In practice I think people with a higher income also spend more, however, probably not linear to their extra income. In practice, sales

In google maps, gmail, and other places (where data shared between pages generally is loaded) I am very content with client site navigation. As far as I see it really depends whether it is an app or a site that is being developed.

Hmm, I would say that the key is figuring out what the project should be and how it should be carried out. That's where you need somebody mentoring. You really don't learn network programming from programming a a chat app. That pr

That is a very interesting conversation, although OT. But it is interesting to think about whether there should be an alternative for those not wanting kids such as getting the leave anyways to use on whatever. On the other hand there might
