Production teams at great companies seems to assume this is a Phd in something applied. Theorical Phds exists as well (e.g. pure maths)

I have been doing mathematics up until a couple of postdocs - and based on first hand experience I think that the story of young mathematicians is mostly a myth. Maybe people in their 60s were not at the center of research, but I would say

I would question whether this is actually true. Stats on Field medalists have to be taken with a grain of salt, given that it is awarded at 40 years top in the first place

You can test it against https://unicredit.github.io/cello/

Definitely not ELI5

Well, these are mutable, but only in the ST or IO monad - which is a guarantee, but at the same time it is not quite the same thing. You cannot just accumulate state by mutating some stuff, then in a separate part of the program mutate it a

Yet there are not many large codebases in languages with HKT, and even those which are there (mainly big Scala projects) do not use HKT

Don't know... mutable collections? A way to make sure things are evaluated without writing seq every other line?

Actually I am not an expert at all, my field of study was algebraic geometry

I think it is an elliptic equation as in elliptic partial differential equation https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Elliptic_partial_differential_... (the simplest one being the Laplace equation, which is satisfied by harmon

How does Perelman proof involve elliptic curves? I thought it was about properties of the solutions to the Ricci flow equation, hence more of a difficult problem in PDE. I have no clue where elliptic curves would arise

I tried to look for some math topics, such as "harmonic analysis", "lie algebras" and "model theory" - unfortunately none of the matches were relevant for any of the queries

The AST of Nim is a simple tree, the only thing is that the nodes of this tree are tagged with a kind that represents the kind of syntactic element, since the language is not homoiconic
104.

Nim and Scala are not homoiconic, yet they both have true macros

Npm and many other package managers support custom repositories just fine

If you want a little more customizability, make sure to try https://www.madoko.net/

Yeah, I know, I don't want to use docker. The problem is that C and C++ offer no real option in this camp. I'd be happy with anything that resolves and download dependencies, builds them locally (using CMake?) and adds the correct

The problem is that it does not manage and version dependencies for you. Say I start a new C++ project where I want - say - use ZeroMQ and also Folly to parse JSON. Where do I start? Should I install ZeroMQ and its headers globally? What if

I feel the opposite. There's no shortage of startups trying to serve you every kind of food on the planet quickly and cheaply, but more often than not the enjoyment is in actually going out and spending some time at the restaurant or p

Linking to external C libraries is trivial. If the library is written in C++ and does not expose a C api, things can become much more difficult

The point is that many technical users do not install custom versions of Android, though. We all agree on non technical users, but changing Android version is still more complex, to the point that many people comfortable with upgrading a de

Depends on the country. In Italy, Netflix cannot distribute house of cards because it sold the rights to do so to sky

I think you mean that usually testing monoliths is easier (no network and so on) but I am not sure, can you clarify?

For IQ, in fact, I agree. That one accepts obesity as normal is telling (not everyone here is American, you know?)

100 IQ is the norm, sure, but why obesity?

That is obviously not the home page. It is not even the first page when a user opens the documentation. Also, you make it sound like disabling automatic updates is something that requires work, hence needs to be prioritized on a task boar

I read the book and found all the characters extremely simplified and shallow. I guess the audience was not ready for sophisticated personalities - there are the evil Thenardier, the saint Myriel, the disgraced Cosette... Most books written

Too many negations, I can't parse. Do you want an OS written in C++ or not? :-)

Well, the example you are looking at is very complex, but also you are very unlikely to run into it early! For better examples, look at the homepage: you will see something much more approachable. The reason this snippet is complex is that:
