Clojure. Changed namespaces automatically recompile. Instantly reevaluate changes. Never have to restart the server. On the front end you never have to even hit refresh in the browser with clojurescript.

How disgusting. What they've done to Windows makes the Microsoft of the 90's look tame. It's not an OS. It's a malware and advertising platform that spies on its users. It's shocking to me that people who run actual

I could get a coat that lasts years for $10 now and I could do the same 25 years ago. Same with a coat costing $80 or $1000. All those coats should last years. Any one of them that lasts under a year would be a scam, a piece of garbage that

That's hilarious. I love how confident you are that a European equivalent of fb, Google, etc. would not be as inventive or bold. That's cool, but let's not pretend like it's a fact. As to your other point, I'm not s

You make it seem like it's desirable to have monopolies. I think the EU disagrees. The lack of FAANG type companies is indicative of a healthy economy and society. The fact that they exist in the US is indicative of the opposite. Of co

In the US, the police can just confiscate your money without arresting you and keep it. They then have a trial where they put the money on trial. Not a person. The money itself is on trial. The absurdity is beyond comprehension. The injusti

Sure it's not a panacea for poor work. But it does allow one much more flexibility in terms of working conditions. Having a private space is now the default. That alone is an incredible change especially for knowledge workers. Not bein

Not to be pedantic, but since Clojure is a hosted JVM language (as one of a few platforms it's hosted on) and has full interoperability with Java, by definition it has more libraries than Java as it has all the Java libraries plus all

If kayak etc. don't offer the option to filter by plane type now, they will or a competitor will. While plane crashes have happened in the past, I can't remember one that was so clearly gross negligence on the part of the manufact

It's incredible they are still pushing to fly this plane without changing the plane itself (engines etc.). This is, as most software issues, an issue of trust. After Boeing killed almost four hundred people with an airplane they knew w

Having it be the first thing in the morning seems to be the least efficient option possible, way worse than being interrupted in flow. This is the peak working time for most people, peak alert time for the majority of the population, and th
