Several factors affect it... high number of upvotes and comments in a short amount of time, users flagging it because of politics, etc. Hopefully it gets manually unflagged.

Not just a relevant comment; this HN thread serms to be a primary source for the article.

Python notably switched from hand written recursive descent, to a PEG based parser generator. But indeed, last I checked, recursive descent was the most common choice overall.

Does it support deoptimization back to bytecode? That's useful for dynamic language JITs.

I'm also a fan of git+text editor but I do miss the collaborative editing. In the final stage of writing a paper, I want to be able to sit on a video conference call and both people edit the document at the same time, without having to

Sorry, I don't understand what you mean. The rightwards shift from the head of the senate is not random. In Brazil the far right is strongly opposed to court and Pacheco has been advancing part of that agenda in order to gather support

The comments from the head of the senate are to be expected. He is courting votes from the far right, who oppose marijuana decriminalization and who also antagonize the supreme court (because they are prosecuting the people behing the coup

Fun example: there's a project (Lunatik) that embeds Lua inside the Linux kernel, where no userspace C APIs are available. You'd expect that would require extensive patching but they mostly just had to tweak the makefile and a con

Papers should be immutable, blogs bit rot, and anonymous peer review is important. The million dollar question is why don't researchers publish on journals that don't charge outrageous open-access fees. Here the main problemis tha

Cars are carry less people per area of road than buses do and it's even worse for self driving cars that are empty half the time.

From the point of view of the interviewee, it's impossible to guess if they expect you to answer "no need for big data" or if they expect you to answer "the company is aiming for exponential growth so disregard the 6TB l

The lack of colons is also hard for the parser. The recursive-descent code for parsing a Go parameter declaration is quite tricky and got even trickier after they introduced generic types.

Cheese & wine count as processed, but not as ultraprocessed. Kraft singles and other highly processed "cheese" are ultraprocessed. The main rule of thumb is to look at how long the ingredient list is.

White flour is a processed ingredient, not ultra-processed.

Why shouldn't the burden of proof be on the people making these meal replacements? The NOVA system is more interested in the wider effect of ultraprocessed foods replacing existing eating and cooking habits. The Brazilian dietary guide

It's as if they generated an AST and then immediately converted it to bytecode, all at once. The key restriction is that you must be able to generate the bytecode in a single pass over the source code. For example, the compilation of a

This classification seems somewhat Rust-centrict. The terminology I'm more used to seeing for coroutines is this: Symmetric vs assymetric coroutines: symmetric coroutines are the original style, where the currently executing coroutine
