This optimization problem you're conceptualizing is a very strange one indeed. It's like the only outcome we care about is achieving some perfect architecture. In a dynamic optimization problem, where we have to take into account

It does one thing and does it well: an interactive Lisp runtime ;) (Actually, most of the individual applications you're thinking about are these days provided through an Emacs package system.)

I see what you did there.

Qt Creator is great for Qt. KDevelop and Emacs gud-gdb also provide nice vanilla frontends.

And you can do all that stuff in gdb too. rr is really quite innovative.

Qt Creator / KDevelop and so on are basically frontends to gdb though, and suffer the same limitations on reverse debugging. (Perhaps supports lldb as well, never tried)

I would love to have a general purpose Qt input event fuzzing library.

Reading some random slides from a specialist talk is not exactly the easiest way to learn this stuff.

How did you write this embedded X server? Emscripten and a touch of magic?

Doesn't help the slow-as-molasses NTFS unfortunately, or the inefficient scheduler.

Do you understand that this whole article is designed to point out the major losses from categorically excluding developers "not compatible with the culture?"

Adding the "think" is being overly careful.

Simple: this aims for regulatory support. If Taler (or a system like Taler) is embraced by governments, and is therefore given the full support of the financial system, Bitcoin could be permanently relegated to black-market-only use.

Almost all risky assets are trading below what they were a year ago. It's a market downturn. Why would I expect IPOs to be somehow different?

I said there is very little that can be said scientifically using economic methods about the distant future. You may as well be talking to Singularity crowd, global warming scientists, asteroid impact researchers, or SETI. GDP growth rese

Nobody belongs anywhere, nobody exists on purpose, everybody's going to die. How about saving the existential dread for your therapist? Let economists focus on economics.

Don't waste your brain cells on this, people, move along. To the author: you scoot off to /r/badeconomics. Sure. OK. Economic growth cannot continue to look like it currently does forever. Gasp, some economists may not have e

This book is great, I'm really enjoying it. However I find that sometimes it takes too much pain to annotate the source code itself, rather than the ideas behind the code. This comes at the expense of being pedagogical and directing

Perhaps... but it's also psychological science. People routinely play out that exact pattern.

Yes, it is harder to write correct software in C++ than in other languages. But if the project you are working on needs to be written in C++, explicit coding standards and the general project environment can play a huge role in whether it
