It' a fun idea, but colors are so contextual that putting them next to each other for votes gives a pretty useless data set.

As bad as the law is, these links don't answer the question of how many there are.

Prolog itself does not have exponential complexity. It depends on the problem you're solving.

I would love a Prolog database query language. Itch for it every time I use SQL.

This post is related to a large number of developers and startups (read: HN users), many of which have at least an iOS app or support safari. I don't see what the problem is.

Flooring has changed too. Carpets are better looking and more resilient. Click vinyl is stronger, has good texture, easier to install, and is super durable.

Agreed. As James 2:15 puts it: If a brother or sister is naked and destitute of daily food, and one of you says to them, "Depart in peace, be warmed and filled," but you do not give them the things which are needed for the body

Is there an introduction to 2LTT for those with only a basic understanding of type theory?

Why write Lexical over using something like ProseMirror or CodeMirror 6? Not being snarky, just curious.

Your intuition is correct. We're working on a project where 3rd party developers will write their logic in Prolog, which is a boon for both security and ease-of-writing. Here's a good video explaining some of this, as well as a ni

Why would being "cleaner" make any difference for the likelihood of a theory? Isn't "clean" just a made-up concept that merely means "pleasant" to the human mind? I don't see how "all cases"

Go is good and all, but it's odd to compare it to the vast feature set that Rails provides. The point of Rails is to give you standard tools so you don't have to consider / reimplement / configure / hook up e.g. bac

It's not orthogonal as you can't have TDD without tests. Perhaps you meant to say "you can have tests without TDD".

Love the effort fly.io is putting into supporting Phoenix. Reminds me of the early Heroku days when they were focused on making Rails as easy to deploy as possible. Betting on Phoenix is definitely the right call.

You're vastly underestimating the advanced type system features TypeScript requires to typecheck even the most basic JavaScript code. It would be more like 10% rather than 98%. Intersection and union types are no joke, and are notoriou

Considering the hard part of effects is implementing them at the language level, deferring on syntax is a good problem to have.

The short answer is, algebraic effects allow you to build your own abstractions like async/await. That's extremely powerful.

This is an odd question. Since when do SaaS companies charge based on hosting cost? If their service is superior, people will pay for the saved time.

That's true with any system you haven't sufficiently studied.
