Do those editors use the project's builtin namespace? gettext.install sets __builtins__._ to the translation function so that individual modules don't have to import it.

Are list comprehensions still part of ES7? It's strange that Babel removed the list comprehension transformer recently, but I haven't been following closely. The Elixir pipe syntax is reminiscent of Clojure's ->/->

Practically, those W3C/WHATWG regexes probably are fine, but they aren't correct. For instance they fail to match the valid address c."@".t@gmail.com because they don't handle quoted strings correctly. I'd expe

Lynn has its own water supply, and they switched us over to MWRA for a couple months during some maintenance work. The MWRA water has a funky taste, not a fan. http://www.lynnwatersewer.org/Images/LWSC-MWRA%20General%20

Haskell, Erlang, and Clojure all have sane lambdas (assuming that's what you mean by "properly implemented functional syntax"), and list comprehensions are useful and idiomatic in those languages. Agreed about sequence names

Small thing, but `final_function` here needs to be passed `fun maybe_function/1`, not the atom `maybe_function` alone.

I mentioned those, but you're right that they're inconsistent with what I said about people not leaving NW. 2006-ish I think there was a big debate on if they'd be allowed ... they've always seemed like a special case, b

Agreed, there are very few billboards in northern Virginia; I think Fairfax and Arlington Counties have stringent requirements for them, if not outright bans. When I lived in Sacramento, on the Cap City Freeway there was a highly visible, g

If like many Washingtonians you never leave NW, sure. But there are plenty of billboards in NE and SE. There are definitely billboards when you get a little ways out on 66, also on 50E towards Annapolis. 95 in VA is non-stop billboards, I f

You're underestimating the difficulty of scaling Mnesia the way WhatsApp did (one source says "In-memory Mnesia database using about 2TB of RAM sharded across 16 partitions to store about 18 billion records." [1]). The prevai

My cat just forks the project because I reject the bird animation PRs... you know what they say, cats don't have owners, they have upstream.

Due to the variability of cane, every reed must be tested.

That's incredible! The good news is that it's already warm and humid (woodwinds have a much harder time with being warmed up after very cold storage).

Interesting, I didn't know decent bassoons were available cheaply. I played on a couple of old Fox bassoons in school (a decent brand but nothing incredible) and found even these instruments to cost at least $7,000 used. More palatable

Very cool! Now I just need to save up, for a long time, for a bassoon :)

Brass and woodwind instruments are very different beasts though. Plastic clarinets for instance are mostly found in marching bands due to their inferior (brighter) sound, and those instruments are certainly not all plastic. Most woodwind

I used to pay $20 for a reed that my tutor made (about the same price as a box of nice clarinet reeds). It's possible they could be produced more cheaply in another part of the world, but you need a bassoon to test on (again, not che

I played bassoon for years and would love to play bassoon now that I am not in school. The trouble is that bassoons are extremely expensive. Even a terrible plastic bassoon costs thousands of dollars, and a "good" bassoon is $20k-

It looks like that was added in 2008[1] by an anonymous editor likely affiliated with SolarCity[2]. This is par for the course for a Wikipedia article about an operating business. [1] https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.ph

Yes, anybody who sees Tolstoy as some saint ought to read Troyat's excellent biography of him. Tolstoy was a great novelist and a powerful personality, but a vain and hypocritical man.

That named helper function isn't necessary, so this might be more appropriate: return <ul> {this.props.items.map(item => <li>{item}</li>)} </ul>; vs. the Angular version: <ul ng-

The Closure Library definitely has its bright spots, and it was my library of choice for many years. For all its warts, I particularly like the design of goog.ui. goog.editor is a wonderful part of the library too. I still run ##closure-too

I hate to break this to you, but as somebody of similar age, we are the "younger generation," at least in the professional world. Beyond that, "the young'ns are useless!" is a tired trope. If anything I notice rec

Not only that, being so adamant about using Arch Linux would make you look ignorant/partisan. Now don't get me wrong, I'm more likely that most to make a stink about not being able to use Linux on the job, but you can still g

Ten years ago this would be --xml. Who knows what it would be ten years from now. Text streams are timeless.
