Are you talking about requirements.txt? Requirements.txt falls short of cargo or really any other mainstream language's dependency doc (no reproducible builds, for one thing -- effectively almost as bad as undocumented).

It's really not. All the sadness and broken-ness of PHP is still there.

My family kept a large garden for the duration of my childhood. I was made to weed it. It was absolutely that big of a job. It took a couple hours. Every day.

Most of their code is Hack, and Hack is a superset of PHP (last time I checked all it really adds is static typing and async) https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=14659729

A huge amount of people working as developers have no formal CS education whatsoever. In my company I even hear it touted as a perverse point of pride sometimes. (Kind of like, Oh you have a degree? I studied biology and I can still do the

It's fair to say he came from a pretty upper class background. Wealthy/famous parents, went to the best schools, started an early web company with his dad's money, became part of paypal mafia.

Actually, I think it is more like simple RPC than SOAP. I'm personally betting big on GraphQL.

I find the "/actions" slug a bit goofy and unnecessary. Why not just put it at e.g. "/repositories/1/archive"? Additionally, why not maintain restful semantics by using PUT (or more likely, PATCH) ins

Transactions are an answer for atomicity, not consistency. It's possible to have transactions and not be consistent. Hopefully this is just the mistake of a non-technical product manager and not the engineering team that works on Cloud

Um, so fucking what? I could put a pair of braces or parens around the algol program, too, but they are implicit. Or is that too exotic a concept for your lisp-addled mind to accept? I get that you think having to wrap your entire program i

Infix doesn't require operator precedence, it's just something we've adopted from math. Notice that you've flattened the parse tree in the second example. A fair comparison would be: (2 f (3 g 4)) which is arguably how
