This language has some interesting properties. Here's a code example featuring a user-defined event that triggers a handler. This kind of callback-oriented indirect application at the language level would be nice for async programs.

It all depends on the nature of your application. A video editor and a command line utility are so different! Sounds like you already know the big players so I won't repeat them. Instead, here are some off-kilter ideas: 1. Casual use,

Good points. Some rebuttals: First, in the context of this argument, I'm talking about work in high level languages like Python, JS, fairly expressive C++, etc. If we were coding in assembler -- LEA, LDR, JNZ.. -- I'd definitely w

Strongly disagree but upvoted for the conviction of your delivery. :) Writing robust programs relies on unquestionable understanding of the logic. The specific variable and argument names are neither here nor there. It's almost impossi

Vector language users are passionate about their power and heartbroken that so few have had the transformative opportunity to really get to learn them.

It's more about expressiveness and the ability to stay at a "high level" than actually the ability to just do some computation that is really hard elsewhere. After all, most programming languages can do "the same stuff&q

ESP32 is very good if you can work around 3.3v. The M5Stack [0] is particularly nice and modular. C, Lua, and some Python works well. Supports WiFi including split AP and node mode. BLE on chip as well. Get cheap LoRa chip for mesh net. [0]

Well as I recall there were a few reasons that people focused on reliability in hardware in the late 90s: 1. Shared state storage systems that supported replication were rare (I think Oracle and Informix maybe?) 2. Virtualization software w

Because of the age old warning about premature optimization, a lot of software that runs critical parts of the internet infrastructure is dreadfully slow. You could pick something that is deployed on millions of servers, speed it up 20%, an

I think a savvy manager would look at your soup-to-nuts experience as a good thing, perhaps in a product lead or management role, if the tech resume isn't up to snuff. Sounds like you've built something amazing - just keep going!

I've had to do this a few times and I'm not sure there's ever a single "best way to do it" 1) The webserver can be configured to respond for any domain. Then your application software can look at the HTTP host heade

Not to mention building a service network. People are going to expect a lot of regional white glove shops for a $100k truck and it's not easy to find enough qualified EV techs.

The patches are sent as pure data and a small client-side Javascript library (morph-dom) patches the DOM accordingly, so the template itself doesn't get sent.

I've been doing some experiments with WebRTC applications -- like many others on HN, it seems -- and came across this excellent research about the scalability of popular open source WebRTC servers.

I’ve used Paperspace.com a bit. It’s cheap if you don’t leave it online all night :) Be sure to use their “ML in a box” image for least hassle

In most cases I've seen, the model lives on its own, with only very surface-level connections with your system. It can't "look up" stuff it needs, such as the query you mention. There are graph-based systems but I think

1. You can predict multiple values, but it still has to be trained on target values for those features. So, you could predict "D", "P", and "Z", but not any at random - you'd have to design it that way. Lo

I'm still learning too, so take the following hand wavey reply with a grain of salt.. What can ML offer? ML allows you to more easily make predictions from data you already have. An example is taking search terms and grouping them into
