   There's commentary abiut incidentally discriminating based on race (e.g. zip code aa an input can act as a proxy for race). Would giving out more loans than is rational by excluding stuff like zip codes be a good thing? Wouldn't t

   Can someone elaborate on this point a little bit: > It’s deadlock free. This one is easy, because Pony has no locks at all! So they definitely don’t deadlock, because they don’t exist. It seems like it'd be possible to have a deadlo

    Hmm... the advocates I've run into say that you can add a newline with out modifying the old last line. And that one makes sense, since you tend to (or at least I tend to) add things at the end.

    Did you know that you can abuse font ligatures to have adjustable indents even when using spaces and not tabs? Its possible using font ligautures to turn predefined sequences of characters into a different set of glyphs. This is usually use

    I think (I'm winging it here), it's because the market acts on the analysts predictions. The market turns the analysts predictions into expectations and acts on them.

    Considered removing spring where I work to speed up startup times. Found the biggest bang for the buck was rewriting a bean factory to parallelize singleton preinstantion. That's what I thought the optimal route was. That's how mu

    It's meant to be used and configured for individual blogs - you provide the sites you're following and it picks out articles. I'd say the selection of blogs you follow is curation enough. It's not meant for use a la medi

    Thanks! I saw 'polyrepo' too, but multirepo sounds more intuitive.

    While I agree with your analysis, do we have a good word for lots of little repos? ie microservices : monolith and ?? : monorepo

    I'd be fine to wrap it into the existing smoking ban, hopefully resulting in not much more bureaucracy.

    > why C is a good thing and not a liability these days? That's the wrong question. The question should be: "If I rewrite this in a different language, will it be a net-benefit? If so, just how long will it take to reap said ben
