Seems like a key missing piece is the "staying in touch with people" part. That's by far the biggest feature for me, once I've added someone on facebook, I know I can message/call them forever. No lost phone numbers

I think a lot of problems with types could be avoided if the package management system / linking system required typing of imported functions, even if the actual language doesn't. Maybe there'll be a "safe" subset o

Given the data Google has, I'm sure they could come up with an efficient encoding scheme that would use far fewer emoji on average by prioritising popular coordinates.

It's a shame that google didn't go with this approach, although I assume it's because of the lack of portability between all the languages in that area. Maybe what3words should pivot into what3emoji.

In the function input scenario, it's more like an alternative to a generic type Elements: Sequence with the Element constrained to Int. Either would work. There are cases where this is not possible, like when you are returning a sequen

Why do you prefer [] to <> for type parameters?

How will the 1000 a month be treated in a fiscal sense? I have close to no knowledge about the US tax system, but I would guess it has some impact. Also, will be interesting to see the difference in results from this study to ones done in c

Spark has something similar. In any case, I've found the tool useful not to triage incoming mail into "read now", and "read later", but into "read at some point", and "unsubscribe immediately".

Sounds like OCaml to me, although I'm not super experienced with it. Not sure exactly how concurrency is handled.

I'm relatively sure the Soviets had a go and got nowhere. I'm hoping this attempt will go about as far.

I'd encourage you to give the last few episodes of the YC podcast a listen, the ones on cryptocurrencies. While there is nothing fundamentally new about the mechanisms, there is a fundamental shift in who you have to trust for the tran

I have a feeling that they had not anticipated the level of the competition in Russia, where the cabs were such unbelievable scams that the locals had launched mobile-first services long before Uber entered the market.

The statistics seem to be obviously incorrect, there is no discount for the distribution of the number of files that a contributor might author/have a significant effect on. Since most contributors will have made a small number of cont

It's the format used for reservations and other rich data in email. I dealt with it quite a bit when implementing the email parser that would look for your reservations, and found the format quite easy to approach.

That's kinda really insulting to a lot of really talented spies that risked their lives in the States :)

I think that's sort of the point, instead of having aliases, this is a low-effort way to have even people who prefer to use GUI clients (like me) to have an easy-to-use/install unified command line workflow. I'm very tempted.

That's not quite right, the special case was the `init`s, where all the parameters were named, whereas the first parameter of `func`s was not named. This kind of made sense, as you could put the name of the first parameter as part of t

It's a great blog, they usually strike a great balance on the practical/theoretical scale for the articles. Would love for them to up the frequency of the posts, maybe they will once they find the writer they're looking for.

REPL (Read-Eval-Print Loop) is an interactive way to program. You feed bits of the program line by line, in contrast to compiling a bunch of files. This is kinda like giving instructions live vs writing down a list beforehand. When solving
