Sometimes I even wish they could embed a JavaScript interpreter... After all, YAML is almost equivalent to JSON, which the perfect templating language for JSON is -- JavaScript tbh. Or people have to keep inventing half baked things.

I doubt it, since provinces other than Hubei province had significantly lower cases. It is a huge country and it was "so many flights" from China, instead of "so many flights" from Hubei province. If it's hard to wr

I'm not sure if this is good or bad. Maybe time will tell. One thing popped up in my mind was YouTube demonetized a lot of videos that are not 'family-friendly', and eventually destroyed a lot of great content creators.

First, it's easy to fix by just using ===. Second, It's more of a blub programmer thing. From multiversal equality's perspective, almost every mainstream statically typed language is also a semantic mess - you can even compar

The quote is almost true, unless he didn't quantify things. Let's say Java and PHP both have a lot of users, but I guess Java receives less percentage of complaints per 100 people. (Just a random example, if you don't agree y

Frankly, I don't know the answer. Here is some common knowledge for Chinese you might be interested in, and possibly remotely related to this issue. But I'm by no means an expert, so please take a grain of salt. > why did it th

You're right about the counters/classifiers do exist in ancient Chinese. If there no classifiers there would be no straight forward way to specify if it's "a cup of water" or it's "a bucket of water".

That makes sense. Thank you for your response!

The actor model is not performant with numerical computing since there are usually messaging overhead. And it might be more straightforward and use it in the typical ways instead of putting them in actors. If it is worth learning, the reall

I just bought it. It looks beautiful and the topics are very practical. With Scala 3 almost in sight, will this book update to Scala 3?

The one thing I love about Chinese is, it's just like English use the canonical 'the' instead of German 'der/die/das' - it rarely classifies things. For example, 'someone is doing something' woul

Almost the same, unless I don't put it on desktop but documents. From the algorithmic perspective, it's really efficient and it's like a linked list: Read and write heavy on the head (Desktop/documents). Keep the head le

Nice to see someone finally tackle this in JavaScript! Although Phoenix is great, it's good to have similar things on Node in pursuit of velocity.

There's nothing too novel about Kubernetes, similar patterns could be seen in Erlang many years ago, though in different abstraction levels. However, because enterprise ops prior to Kubernetes are both costly and brittle, Kubernetes ju

It's strange we eventually reached a place where things go unproductive... Similar to Smalltalk, and Common Lisp are super fast to develop things. Maybe it is they were relying too much on their superior environment? So that other lang

I subscribed to O'Reilly Safari and Packt. They provide web pages and mobile apps. Because I don't own the books so it seems I cannot download them, but the apps are not very nice. I would avoid them when I can, so I just use thos

Wow, this is mind-blowing. Great respect to the author. May I ask which preliminary knowledge or directions I need to look at, in order to have a decent understanding of the codebase?

Nice to see guys from Hasura here! The product is pretty slick. I scratch my head on this problem for quite a while. I would love things like database-to-GraphQL or even Datalog solutions. But eventually, I found I still need to add another

Teaching Chinese kids is a pretty huge market, I’m not sure which company to recommend tho.

I’m not sure how it’s compared with market rate but friends are usually more trustable or at least making people feel that way.

Elixir and Phoenix are living proof that functional programming can be easy - most of the time you just play with struct and functions, that's basically it. No need to pay attention to monads and type classes. On the other hand, it als

I hate this so much. But it's so common. I was told not to mention the caveats, instead, render a confident image for the team many times in my career. It's like doctors suggest their patients to use some drugs without mentioning

There definitely niches for native apps, but they're just niches. It's like massive C++ vs others debates in the 90s. Eventually, people only use C++ where it suits the niche, instead of using it for most of the things like it was

Most of time it's just trust. It's not possible to read through node modules, or reason about C compilers, or even inspect the source code of the operating systems.

Plain global state is not that bad actually. What people do to fix the global state made things worse, and IMO OO is also a terrible attempt. Mutate coarse-grained or global state is pretty much similar to functional programming approaches.
