Is there already a proposal for (optional) type safety? So we can assimilate the typescript fans?

Same here. I 'my just waiting for the new Air. Slanted keyboard and battery life. Not interested at all in anything else. But I really want 16Gigs. Running Chrome and a few VM'S needs more RAM.

A possible reason for bringing MSSQL to Linux that was not mentioned in TFA at all: customers requesting it.

It's A correct answer but not THE correct answer. The best answer would be clean code is just beautiful and that's why I strive for it.

Don 't take this personally, but it worries me that someone who is not well versed with things like safe memory structures is tasked with writing software like this.

Are we really sure we want to train our top AI in galactical warfare?

I guessed you were dutch, glad I was right. Now I'm really interested in who this post is about. Hope it's not me!

No, I did not mean the harsh physical conditions, I mean the lack of control over your own life. This employer seemed to 'own' her much more than I would consider reasonable. It's not legal ownership, but the outcome seems pr

To me, the only difference between this woman's work environment and slavery, seems the lack of chains.

I'm from the VoIP world and we share this pain. Kudos, this must have been a huge undertaking.

I did not get from TFA that the Dutch don't like English. Also I don't think that's true at all (source: I'm Dutch). According to an older HN submission (can't find it right now) the netherlands is, with the excepti

Is there a https example? Personally I think all examples online should use ssl by default these days. http should be banned altogether.

So much this. I have been working in a company which was run by sales, who thought 'how hard can it be?' all the time. Sales did not sell, company was sinking, sales disagreed. I left.

Interestingly enough, dutch media for a few years have been reporting a similar trend among young people in The Netherlands.

Problem is, when you use VoIP over WiFi, you loose echo-cancellation, because the echo cancel hardware resides in the baseband and is not used in WiFi calls.

Cops aren't expected to know the law? Does that hold for civilians as well? As a comparison, here in The Netherlands, all citizens are expected to know the law. Not knowing it is never an argument as far as I know.

In the past few years I have been building up good reputation at various stores both online and offline. It bothers me I cannot use that reputation. For example a major supermarket chain here in The Netherlands rolled out self scanning from

When I started one of the first ISP's in Europe in '93, I generated invoices in LaTeX too. Only wish this was available then, these look so much nicer.

I think this is a great list but what would make it really useful is to have an explanation and opinion with each link.

This touches me. I am 55, and I think this is a very astute observation. To me it seems the downfall of the 50+ generation was either caused or exacerbated by the financial crisis. On the other hand it seems that the top class wasn't r

I worked with ACP/TPF in the distant past. All programs were written in S/370 macro assembler. My department tested C, but it was dismissed as too slow, generating code that was too inefficient. But if you are maintaining this so

I've been eyeing DASH7 for a few years now, because the authors concerns with existing popular standards certainly are valid. Problem is, DASH7 is relatively unknown, and big marketing makes more noise in the market. It's a well-d

I don't think comparing means what you think it means. No use comparing things that are the same.

I would be interested in a focus group or forum for engineers that got bitten in a similar fashion, or that wants to exchange information on how to deal with rats like this. Does that exist?

This is all over the news here in The Netherlands, so probably in other countries as well.

The fear is not unfounded of course, but I think there are two mechanisms at work here: 1. in the US the media blows these things up much more than in Europe. In fact there is a lot more attention for crime in general, while traffic acciden
