Well, I was also thinking about (but didn't write) that most mission-critical systems aren't written in javascript :) ... but rather something "ancient" like ada or pascal.

This was the case (being tired by training), and eating properly, in the proper time before exercies, was what totally changed the situation, for me. Not sure about the carbs though (except sugar, which I try to avoid taking in excess). I r

Much the same as the main message (as I remember) of the "The Healthy Programmer" book (which you should totally read by the way ... most researched, elaborate and "balanced" (AFAIS) reading on the topic I've came a

(Correction: A few hundred GB of files actually ... an extraction took like 7-8 hours in total, so the progress bar was kind of crucial for the users :) )

The forums (and I think wiki) etc are astonishingly up-to-date though in my experience, and I have mostly got a useful answer in the forum within an hour or so, so I would say, don't judge the book by the cover :)

Btw, a shoutout to the awesome OmniPascal project, which allows you to write Delphi and FreePascal in the Visual Studio Code editor (when you are not building GUI apps, and and/or don't need a full blown visual IDE, or just for na

For a latex editor that lets you write correct latex insanely fast (through excellent latex autocompletion), have a look at inftyeditor [1]. Don't get fooled by the crappy website. It is a very handy and to-the-point piece of software.

Depends, IMO. I got a few projects which I for various reasons (simplify collaboration, or have a neutral home, amidst multiple parties (me, research group, few virtual orgs etc)) forked off into separate github orgs, but still was the main

Awesome! I had this problem that my side-project (a vagrant box for Go development in vim) got more stars than my main and favorite project (thing written in Go). This will fix that.

When I read up about Angular 2 a year ago or so, based on my very shallow understanding it seemed like the perfect combination of the automagics of Angular 1, and the light-weightedness of React. But what do you JS folks think about this?

I have moved part-time from vim to vscode, for Go work. Some reasons: - Having the full type info for every single thing in the code with simply hovering over it (not just when typing) - Ability to "peak at definition", to get a l

It's a bit interesting that Cloudera went the opposite way than Spotify and fitted Google's Java API on top of Spark instead (so, changed the backend instead of the "frontend") [1]. [1] https://github.com&#x2F

I would expect it to be as native as Google's own Java API [1], though it is still just the API, not the actual backend. [1] https://github.com/GoogleCloudPlatform/DataflowJavaSDK

Interesting. Do you have a link to description of their "dataflow" implementation or API? From what I can see in the docs I'm getting afraid Dask does the same mistake as so many other recent tools: Allow only task dependenci

That is interesting to know. But, so the Tasks (which is implemented with light-weight threads IIUC) will all run in the same os process/thread, unless you manually create new ones?

For example, I looked into implementing this with Python 3.5's coroutines and async/await syntax, but this seems to add an enourmous amount of complexity. For example you need specialized versions of many of the standard library m

The reason is a practical one: Struct fields will show up in auto-completion. This is in our experience surprisingly important when doing iterative workflow development, to lower the amount of silly typo errors, which can waste a lot of clu
