Why would you want that?

I’m surprised they aren’t more popular. I’ve been using mine for 10 years as well and I doubt a better keyboard exists. Also, they are built to last. I’m still using my original Kinesis and it’s held up perfectly, besides the finger grime.

You probably are better off not hiring those developers, then.

Scala isn’t another layer, it compiles to JVM bytecode. Also, what does Scala have to do with JetBrains?

Scala is significantly more powerful than both Kotlin or Java 11. Why would you want to use either instead of Scala?

I used to work at a Scala shop and to me, the future looks great. 2.13 is nice, and 3.0 should be very nice. The language is a joy to work with and insanely powerful. I wouldn’t say there’s a better practical language out there (OCaml could

There’s no evidence that vinyls are of lower quality than CDs. Moreover, vinyl masters are often far superior to thst of CDs. Comparing old classic rock vinyls to the new masters, the olds ones sound so much better because of the loudness w

If someone had given her a book and askes her to read it and “change” would she? People always don’t understand why someone else can change while at the same time feeling frustrated at their own ability to change. Turns out change is hard

Of course they do, in the 3rd world country I live in you see construction workers hauling rocks by hand with no shoes on. Certainly seems to me that things have gotten a lot better in America in the last 200 years.

I would say that cheating in school isn’t a problem, but it unfortunately devalues other people’s work. Ideally we would live in a world in which no class was graded on a curve and in which going to college wouldn’t be considered by employe

Nice work! But one question, what’s up with the naming scheme? Some functions are camel case, other are not. It seems like variables are camel case, but not all of them. And types are whatever it’s called when you capitalize each word, but

Why they say they exist and why they actually exist are two different things entirely. There’s not a single corporation (except maybe B corps) that spends money like this without a competitive agenda. Off the top of my head are a couple obv

I’ve looked at UK sites, but their odds are unprofitable (at least with what I’m doing). That 6% - 12% stake does sound super nice however, these are exactly the kind od trades I make! If fact they are the only political trades I make. I’

And my parents made me go to bed at 8pm but I stayed awake until 2am. I’m not sure of the point you’re trying to make.

I think what you’re talking about is arbitrage: finding $20 bucks on the ground is an opportunity, but building a whole new currency isn’t. I’m not sure it’s that simple, but it’s certainly an interesting idea.

Because not being able to sleep at night because you don’t know whether to pay your rent or get enough heroin for two weeks is stressful. It’s not about the drug, it’s about the cost.

Why is this worth paying a premium for, though? Maybe a SQL SSD could get some adoption, but a simple KV store? How would that ever be a bottleneck (they are relatively easy to make blazing fast, unlike SQL) in your application? How many pe

I run around $7000, habing started from $500 a couple years ago. My annualized returns have gotten a lot worse with more money, the markets are too thin to sink tens of thousands into it. I manage to make around 0.5%-1% not annualized per m

I guess you hate novels as well? I enjoy long indepth character centered articles and I think many other people do as well. The point of reading doesn’t necessarily have to be about acquiring the most information in the densest representati

I mean, you can install packages without deps with Arch as well. Also, why is that important to you?

Another untapped market is political betting. I go with a low-risk low-profit strategy that involves a rolling strategy of buying 98 and 99 cent markets (the status quo) on PredictIt. Not very hard to make a 50% annualized return with this

I’ve found the long-term productivity gains far outpace the short-term cost of using Linux/BSD. For example, I’ve found focus-follows-mouse WMs a huge boon to my productivity, a feature that OSX absolutely refuses to implement. The abi

I used to run Slackware, and the user experience is pretty terrible compared to Arch or OpenBSD. The absence of a package manager that tracks dependencies is not a “truer” Unix experience. All the BSDs provide a more Unixy experience than L

Is this, like, a good thing? What other kinds of exploits are governments going to greenlight for the “good of the people?”
