   I don’t understand footnote 16? It sounds like he’s saying he’s ceo of htmx and datastar?

   You could almost think of F# is an extremely strict set of conventions for C# … ;)

   I agree, but somewhat paradoxically, F#’s lack of new features kind of becomes a feature. Have you seen the number of C# features added in the last 5-10 years? It’s crazy

   Can Columbia just put out a press release that they are accredited and say the administration is mistaken? What even is truth at this point?

    Comments have always been "bullshitting", and LLM's are a tool to help bullshitters quickly generated additional bullshit. LLMs are going to reduce the value of bullshit. Look at how it's already decimating the marketing

    Random question, how big is hacker news? It’s plain text so I’d imagine it’s reasonably compact?

    I didn’t recognize it by name and thought, “I wonder if that’s the theme for pbs the civil war…”, imagine my satisfaction after pulling it up ;)

    Maybe they’ll send you duplicate $1000 checks if you claim to be the other people in the leak.

    I want to agree because I think you and I have similar values. But experience has shown that people tend to add things to obscure problems, never simplify. So while you and I would like to kill those kubernetes clusters with a script, the c

    I really wish SQLite had some default way of doing change data capture via session or something similar.

    It’s a true shame F# isn’t more popular. It’s a great language/runtime combination for doing work quickly, correctly.

    That would be a terrible interview question, because it doesn’t clarify whether you mean an African or European swallow.

    I think a lot of it is goals/rewards. I got into computing as a kid because I wanted to play games that I saw in screenshots in magazines. Then I wanted the game I got running to run faster. Then i’m losing online so suddenly I’m learn

    People waste small fortunes on hvac stuff. I’m gradually coming to the conclusion that most homes just need more insulation and sealing and then a relatively inexpensive hvac system. Same thing with solar panels, people will drop 40k on sol

    I’ll add that features isn’t really a constructive way to think about the differences between C# and F#. C# has more ‘features’ than most other programming languages. One of the core features of F# is less features and churn. Also, I really

    Maybe they’ll switch their next operation to iMessage. Can’t wait to see those Memojis issuing kill orders.
