I believe the grandparent is making a valid point. It depends on implicit assumptions we have in mind reading it. The way I'm reading your comment, that JSON-based (or XML-based, or some binary format-based for that matter) media type

Well, it's a wild guess, of course. But does it sound even remotely possible, that thanks to that messy matlab code $current_client now has money to hire you to look into it?

I'm with you on this one. Probably the confusion comes from the fact a lot of people think having a verb in their URI makes the API RPC, while only having nouns is the proper REST. But the whole verbs vs nouns debate in the context of

Without any intention of snark or confrontation whatsoever, can I ask you 1) Have you personally tried to put this idea to practice? If yes, for how long? Would you be willing to share some details? If no, why not? It doesn't take chan

You might also find this paper interesting. To be fair, so far I only had a chance to give it a very superficial look. https://dl.acm.org/doi/pdf/10.1145/112600.112601

Disclaimer: I'm not a distributed systems expert by any stretch of the imagination. Just picked up an interest in the subject some time ago. So, the things I'm about to say may sound silly. Do the cars participating in the system

What advantages does the Golang version have over inheritance? Please, note I don't dispute the "prefer composition over inheritance" thing. In fact, I heartily agree with it. But in this specific case, where every sinle deta

You're describing nominal and structural typing. This concept is orthogonal to static and dynamic type checking. Go and TypeScript are examples of languages with statically checked structural type systems. While C# has statically check

This isn't a coincidence. Vector clocks, roughly speaking, build upon the idea of Lamport Clocks. This isn't to say that one type of clock is better than the other. The choice between them depends on the task at hand and involves

OK, I can see where they're coming from with things like Signal. Not that I agree, but at least I can understand the reasoning behind it. But what is uBlock Origin's sin? A law-abiding citizen is supposed to be OK with seeing ads,

While I very much agree with what you're saying in this thread: Reddit is not a public service, it's a business, and the owners want to make money off it. I wouldn't call that Apollo app's author a fool. My understanding

Well, I'd say, in summary: it depends :) Which is exactly the point of the post. The scenarios where SL is justified are rather specialized. But as the author points out, they still get pushback for using SL even in these scenarios, wh

You spread it too. Assuming we're both vaccinated, we both spread it at an equal rate. I accept the risk of sharing air with you. If you don't, in my opinion, it's your responsibility to avoid contacts with me.

Sorry for an off-topic comment! I'd like to take this opportunity to thank you for your work on SumatraPDF. My favorite, hands down. (Following the link you posted, I realized you're the author.)

An interesting opinion on OOP in F# from Eirik Tsarpalis, who curiously started out their programming with pure FP in Haskell [1]. And a talk from Don Syme, the author of F#, on good F# code as they see it [2]. It's a great talk overal

Great job! I realize this is more about Rust and writing compilers. But if anyone is interested in finding out more about Standard ML, give a shot to the Programming Languages course on Coursera[1]. Part A is devoted to Standard ML (SML) .

Whenever someone is applying the "vertical" approach to build a compiler, it looks really awesome to me. Helps to see the big picture right away -- it's much easier to pick up finer details if I understand a topic in general

Give Rider[1] a try? Its F# support is not as fully-featured as C#, but its, in my opinion, the best available F# IDE. Worth noting, many great features of Rider aren't C#-specific, e.g. the incremental search in files works for any la
