That's a very fair judgement, but it's also something the d3 team knows about. D3 4.0 is breaking d3 into a bunch of reusable components. The exact use case you mentioned, getting the path/layout data so React or anoth DOM ma

I'm not surprised they don't have a gist/pastebin like app. When I interned at Amazon this summer, they were just developing one, and it was still pretty alpha (persistence was buggy and lost me an entire design review of not

That snippet would make sense if it was automated. But the front half of Uber's tweet was directly about the situation -meaning they acknowledged terrorists were in the area and then jacked up prices. That's terrible PR. Much bett

I haven't read the law itself, but I assume it only applies to news publishing. Simply banning the right to give your content out for free would be extremely broad and overly stupid for any government to do legally.

Bluntly put, Haskell's graphics support sucks. There are different libraries with different levels of support, but none are complete or high level. There are also Haskell like alternatives like Elm and PureScript, but they're expe

Yeah, I understand that AEDE (representing Spanish news companies) lobbied for the law, and now changed its mind to lobby against it. Regarding solution 1, yeah that's another good point. It's not a good idea to make one corporati

Yup, exactly. The only reason it didn't happen in Spain right away is the "inalienable right" clause, so that publisher's couldn't sign away the right to be paid. If that goes away, it'll be the same situation

Jeez. So do they have any proposed solution beyond "government intervention"? It's a fact that Google isn't going to pay to host Spanish news, nor can the government force them to do that. So either they need to 1. amend

It's possible, but it's really just a name change. And the `Either` monad is used almost entirely for error handling anyway, so Result is a name that many Haskell/Elm users could come up with on their own.

I suspect Apple and IBM's software and hardware businesses have different margins. Another comment said that IBM still does some software work, but has basically exited 'low margin hardware' business. Whereas Apple's sof

Just to let people know, Transcriptic isn't the first startup in this market. Emerald Cloud Lab is another, and I'm sure there are others.

I finally finished reading parts 2 and 3 of this just now. Honestly, this story is horrifying. I'm not sure if I want to read Webb's article or not. But what I think is important to take from this is two key points: 1. That variou
