A shell has three parts: * the command editor * the command interpreter/parser * the fork()/exec() calls I think you're talking about the fork()/exec() calls. I'm primarily talking about the command editor.

> You have the browser for such things. I think the use case of a browser and a shell is quite different. I don't know what a browser would look like if it had an easily-scrollable log like a terminal does. I think you have a good p

> I wouldn't want [oh-my-zsh's] massive code base and attack surface to be forwarded to sensitive or critical servers. I think we agree here. I said "The shell should [not be] a program running on the remote system."

This tool demonstrates that POSIX shells are at the wrong layer of the stack. The shell should be part of the user interface (e.g. the terminal emulator or console), not a program running on the remote system.

I agree. Just because T* has problems in some contexts doesn't mean optional<T&> should be used in all context.

> I wish the standard had gone with a design that forces the developer to write an explicit check when unwrapping the optional... If this is how std::optional worked, hardly anyone would use it.

I tried Roam's linter. I hit bugs with the CLI and the LSP server. I fixed and reported a few of the bugs, but eventually I gave up trying.

A two-byte fixed-point number is likely to be less expensive to deal with than a two-byte floating-point number. (Promotion and demotion cost is pretty high for small floating-point types (bit masking, shifting, oring, etc.) compared to fix

So every time I add an import or #include, I need to update the dep graph manually? That may work for larger teams, but that would seriously hurt productivity for smaller projects. I think the main issue with approaches like yours is that

I don't see how this relates to the problems posted in the article. How does the lack of Proxy make the behaviour less confusing? Where does the author mention asynchronous behaviour and JavaScript's run loop?

In Haskell, I often suffix lists with 's' or 'es': f (x:xs) = ... g args = ... I also often prefix 'Maybe' types with 'm': mValue <- gets (Map.lookup key)

Apply reverse, tail, etc. on the result of 'map' and you get something of the same type. Types don't tell all.

Of course, there's Data.HashMap.HashMap[1], which is just a Data.IntMap.{Lazy,Strict}.IntMap[2], whose "implementation is based on big-endian patricia trees". > Many operations have a worst-case complexity of O(min(n,W)).

Have you tried precompiling with -O2? IIRC runhaskell runs code like GHCi: interpreted bytecode by default (for source .hs files).

GHC (a Haskell compiler) can defer type errors until runtime: http://ghc.haskell.org/trac/ghc/wiki/DeferErrorsToRuntime http://www.haskell.org/ghc/docs/7.6.1/html/users_gui

Error objects have stack traces in modern engines, which is very helpful for debugging. Strings do not.

[SPOILERS] I got tripped up by question #5 of one of the expert quizzes [1] due to a difference between ActionScript 3 and JavaScript [2]. In AS3, `(a).b` is equivalent to JS's `(null, a).b`. That is, the `this` binding is lost in AS3 (but

I prefer links away from 'apps' like this site to open in a new window or tab. I'd like the app to preserve its state, not replace itself.
