I've used both dynamic and statically typed languges, and also dabbled in some of the more flexible static languages like Haskell and Scala. While I personally prefer statically typed languages, I find Perl 6's gradual typing to t

Gradual typing, reactive programming, PEG grammars and language extension via those grammars... the list goes on. Innovation and polish abounds, yet we have comments like yours, which are completely uninformed. I thought HN was better than

I think I'm just surprised and saddened that HN heaps so much hatred on P6. I mean, we're a community of hackers: do we really need to ask "why another programming language"? The hatred P6 receives here reminds me a lot

I downvoted you, but perhaps too hastily. I think that sigils are a matter of opinion, and there are benefits to using them and also to not using them. I think that this downvote was really intended for your original comment, which I interp

That language and compiler distinction is important. For instance, I generally approach developing in Clojure like developing in a dynamic language. I mean, if I want types then I can just use core.typed, right? Things were going great unti

I could give a list of features as to how Perl 6 will make my life as a developer better, but a list of features is not enough to justify adopting a whole new language with a small ecosystem. To adopt a language, it really has to improve yo

To what extent is that because of price increases? I used to work in higher ed; I think we were able to negotiate a not-as-heart-attack-inducing increase over what we used to pay for the number of licenses we had, but since leaving there I

Well, I think that it is reasonable to say that the practice of vendoring dependencies is not limited to Google alone. It might not be as common in dynamic languages, but it's fairly common in static languages like C++, which Go was de

by muraiki 11y ago
As far as I understand it, always fetching HEAD was the default because Go was developed with Google's giant monorepo full of vendored dependencies in mind, where doing this is both safe and sane. FWIW, I've been using Go 1.5&#x27

Yes, I agree that this is a problem. You might be using foo in your project which gets a security update, and two things that depend on foo, where one of those things is using the still-vulnerable-foo. So you now have two versions of foo, i

This is why they rely on semantic versioning. http://semver.org/ Edit: I know this doesn't solve the problem completely, but comparing, for instance, a typical CPAN module's versioning scheme with what you get in

From talking with people on #freebsd on freenode, it sounds like freebsd should be unaffected. The system calls involved are Sony-specific additions to the kernel.

Given that this uses a FreeBSD kernel vulnerability, what is the impact of this upon general FreeBSD usage? It sounds like an arbitrary process can read and write to the memory of another process. I'm sorry if this is a dumb question,

Let's consider just music for now. Go to Soundcloud, Bandcamp, etc. and see how much music is already freely available. What percentage of those artists are able to make a living as full-time musicians? (especially when the trend is no

Is there enough demand for that much creative work? Who will consume it, if this trend widens the income inequality gap?

I used to feel this way until I realized the limitations of core.async. In Go I don't have to worry about whether the particular functions I'm calling, especially IO-related, are blocking or not, as Go will create new lightweight

In High School, my English teacher had us write essays in a format that incorporated E-Prime, but I had no idea that it was actually called "E-Prime". In addition to not using forms of "to be," we followed the SEXI forma

It's been a while since I used Clojure, so I apologize if what I'm saying is wrong or out of date. Having used both Clojure and Go there are some significant differences in how coroutines work in each. For instance, in Go making a

You know, we have to do a lot of educating about things like SOPA and other laws that we as programmers generally aren't fond of. And we get upset because we know these things affect everyone in an important way. People use computers a

In Orthodox Christian theology, the harrowing of Hades occurs immediately after the Resurrection. In order to understand this event, we first have to understand what Hades is. For Jews that believed in an afterlife, many did not expect some
