Yes, and it's missing tons of things we take for granted in other langauges. If you look at the "strings" section it's so short. There aren't even convenience things like string reverse.

I've looked at it before and I just don't get the appeal. UI doesn't feel sexy enough for me to spend 80% of my day in it.

I dunno I've been in plenty of situations where a department head will literally beg me to buy things so they can reach the same budget spend as last year so their budget isn't slashed (DoD), and have seen the same situation in VC

It's more than that though. There is just no standard library to be spoken of. I mean things like the most basic string processing methods, etc., are left to the programmer to sort out themself. Every time I've done contracting wo

Side note to that, a lot of the orgs that actually have medical PII (schools, especially) will be significantly less compliant themseles with things like HIPAA than the vendors they use.

Medium really doesn't need a large team. The whole product could have been produced and maintained even now by 4-5 devs. An operation like that could be donation based, for sure. Not every idea deserves to be or would even be useful as

This would actually just increase the amount of truly bad porn. If all of it is banned, no point in carefully making sure your actors are 18+. It all just goes underground. This is why places like Russia have _more_ CP, not less. It is well

In other news, the Atom One Dark color theme is alive and well in the VS Code marketplace. I've used it for 5 straight years. https://marketplace.visualstudio.com/items?itemName=zhuangto...

My point is that the non-existence of a us-specific com suffix (.us.com) combined with the existence of country specific com suffixes (.com.mx, etc), implies that .com is us oriented, in a central sort of way affirmed by ICANN arguably. If

My one fear with a lisp-based framework would be code-injection stuff, unless janet has some way of freezing the source in production. You could do a lot of damage if you suddenly realize you can inject code via a request payload on some se

How the TLDs work is a really classic example of US imperialism. For example .gov is impossible to get for non-US entities, yet literal towns have .gov domains within the US, and there are even examples of people using .ca to mean californi

At a previous company AWS was a customer, and I can tell you from the corporate training resources I've seen, they have huge populations of support engineers in countries like India, who are contractors.

Well, the framework laptop is really going places for one. They just need to hit that slightly higher high end with an i9 and an OLED imo

This is almost certainly leaking without you realizing it via a WHOIS contact email somewhere or another Another possibilty is that overseas contractors for AWS regularly harvest email addresses from the support UI and spam them. Wouldn&#x2

Hey this is a very cool project! When you were developing it, I'm curious if you took any special security precautions in your design of this project, seeing how XML/JSON/YAML serialization and de-serialization are the topic

This is one reason I'm bullish on some of the new UI frameworks coming out of the Rust community in particular. For example https://github.com/iced-rs/iced looks quite good.

One thing to watch out for -- all the problems you list can also be symptoms of you simply being the only one who understands most of the code. This could be because you are the only truly competent dev, but it could just as easily be becau

One thing I've found to not be fallacious is "if you don't want them to come, they will come". With open source this is so true. My projects that I don't want to actively maintain anymore are always the ones that ge

Depending on the industry, this can be so true that at a certain point you start to wonder why VCs are even tolerant of companies with zero technical founders in 2022 given the obvious risks of this situation.

It's weird, I had the opposite reaction. I find myself wondering whether there is some way to fit them in my org. To each their own, I suppose.
