If you download the software, it seems reasonable for it to get basic information. User's need to consider the developer perspective. Julia is a product with millions of hours sunk into it. It needs to sustain itself, since it's o

It is very unclear to me why removing user options is a good thing. I use sign in with Google/Facebook.

Have you used TS? Calling it a DSL seems incorrect.

You are conflating is/ought. Constitutional amendments are hard to pass. That doesn't mean they ought to be. I/the poster is claiming small states should be allowed to be "bullied" by larger states since smaller

Alright it's disclosed. I'm not opposed to disclosing (I'm assuming you know b/c it's been mentioned previously in my profile). But also, I had this viewpoint well before I decided to work at Google this summer for

A take: monopoly in tech is good. Because Google/Amazon/FB have so much money they can do things that push tech forward as a whole. Think about the revolutionary improvements Google has made towards data centers, AWS, and all the

I feel like I'm in the minority here -- but I don't understand the problem. Software developers want to know whether their existing marketing methods are effective. The FB SDK helps with this. You always have the choice to not ins

A benefit of ident: Type is that it allows you to express complex anonymous types. Example from Typescript: const foo: 'A' | 'B' | 'C' = 'A' Which states that foo must belong to the given union type.

I think there's a social element of office work that can't really be replaced with WFH.

It didn't gain traction because iOS killed it. Also "some people" includes everyone who doesn't want to make an iOS app.

Having done native Android/iOS and web dev, web dev is much easier than Android and at least on par/if not easier than iOS. There's a bunch of very complex web/electron apps that disprove the idea that the web is only fo

What I don't understand is, if the Republican party is anti-competitive, why haven't they fought against many of the other monopolies that exist. The targeting of Google is... suspicious.

I feel like this is unrelated to the post, which was not talking about electron apps and was instead talking about the text-based origins of the web, and why that's good.

If someone told me they wrote a neural net in Haskell, my first reaction would be "wow that's Cool!", after all I don't think I can do that. I wouldn't care if the code was gibberish.

This blatant bias against the "coastal elite" (let's be real, there's definitely a political bias to this entire thing) scares me. Then again, I'm working at Google this summer, so maybe I'm biased ...

Maybe it's interesting to know what qsort does under the hood? Maybe you don't know what qsort's time and memory constraints are unless you know the underlying algorithim. Obviously the sorting algorithim you use matters, so

This one is actually very interesting, it's not just a Vim tutorial.

I find it interesting how people on HN are decidedly non-Utilitarian. I don't know, but for some reason I expected software engineers to be utilitarian. Not exactly sure why

Is js actually slow? I thought with all the money invested in it, JS was one of the fastest dynamic languages out there.

It takes effort to not use electron. It doesn't take effort to have your library update its dependencies to use a faster utf-8 validator

It looks cool, but it is inappropriate because it wastes time since the transitions take time.

Out of curiosity, what would you want to opt out?

Why is that scary? If the rules are applied impartially, I don't see an issue. The need to save the planet is more important than a person's desire to have kids.

The thing is, if I need to switch node versions. I can use nvm. The thing is, I don't need to manage different environments in node because the dependencies are contained in "node_modules" and not "attached" to a Py

Does anyone else think this reflects badly on Python? The fact that the author has to use a bunch of different tools to manage Python versions/projects is intimidating. I don't say this out of negativity for the sake of negativity

Why does this matter? Pornhub is addictive, probably on a much deeper level than Facebook. No one criticizes Pornhub. Reddit is addictive, no one criticizes Reddit. Videogames are addictive. No one says we should ban videogames or take lega

Can we focus on the actual product. I feel like this discussion comes up every time and it's not interesting. And yes, Electron isn't simple. No one cares. The product itself is simple to use (presumably). When they said simple, t
