No algebraic data types leads to having to add an additional discriminating union type key. Besides that, no type signatures without parameters and other things just produce a lot more code than you'd have in a nicer type system.

On the other hand, exactly because of the high work ethic USA excels in many regards that these "well-being nations" do not. But you're right, it doesn't necessarily lead to a better health to work harder, however, often

Typescript certainly eliminates a class of errors from a JS codebase and can also make development more productive. My issues with it are that it's just an extremely verbose language. Just like all Microsoft languages. All the while l

There will be nothing like guerilla warfare in Hong Kong though. Literally no one has any military experience there, and nobody owns a weapon either. It's just not Singapore. Meanwhile, the Chinese PLA certainly doesn't suffer fro

This is one of the first hands-on tutorials available on v1.9 mix releases - great content!

Can you link to more info about that latency-optimized GC?

On the other hand, even those messy real work horses have been adopting functional programming features at a rapid pace over the past decade or two. And many of those features originate from Haskell.

But on React Native there are major platform differences that you also have to bridge. Moreover, as the platform essentially uses each platform's native components through that JSON serialized bridge you'll have UI inconsistencies

May I ask what kind of stuff are you developing with it? I've been working on a WebRTC app myself with it, basically porting my app from RN to Flutter. So far I've encountered no major obstacles, just a little friction which is a

There's a lot of valid points from native advocates though. Like differences in touch features, various sensor APIs, Firebase etc. These may not be serious considerations in simple apps but they make major difference to both the end us
132.

Actually, I don't think we should consider React Native more mature. It's been around for longer sure, but it's significantly more fragile, keeps releasing with regressions, has poor tooling around it except for as far as Rea
133.
by verttii 7y ago
This has been exactly my experience. I don't particularly like Dart, but as an SDK Flutter is clearly ahead of RN. RN just keeps feeling too fragile. And the tooling is simply not there whereas Flutter has excellent tooling considering

I get the API differences on these platforms but at least in terms of the UI Flutter seems like a good choice. I'd imagine it'd still be easier to stick to Flutter than write two separate native apps in most cases, it seems to hav

Yep, so both would have to be working at very well paying jobs to bring anywhere near that level net income home.

5160 € net would be incredibly much in Finland. A single guy would have to bring home roughly 115,000 € = 128,600 USD gross annually for that. That would put you close to the 1% of the top earners in Finland. Even most mid-sized company CEO

I agree. HK would need Singapore level armed forces to make the price tag high enough for the PLA. If even then.

Or the third choice or sending in covert units disguised as protestors, hk police, the triad or whatever else other than PLA troops. Plus a shit ton of modern crowd control equipment china has been working on

The docs don't say anything about it, the integration works the same way as for native android?
140.
by verttii 7y ago
Yeah I don't disagree. But even there you would have similar other considerations besides the language. Like most still end up with C/C++ there even though there are others like Crystal, Nim, but you just don't find developer

Flutter?

by verttii 7y ago
I feel what you're saying is that regardless of how subpar a language is compared to alternatives as long as it has community built specific libraries that solve your problems you're more productive using them than anything else.

Haskell's type system most definitely does catch some of your logical errors. That's exactly why it is so revered. An effective use of a type system such as Haskell's Hindley-Milner can result in a vastly smaller surface area
144.

Sure, but the original argument was: > raw connection state, timers, transient and long-term persistent state Much of this surely can be abstracted away to 3rd party libraries/frameworks. Haskell, even though a higher level language
145.
by verttii 7y ago
On the other hand, Haskell's strength is its abstraction power. Elm intentionally lacks (some of) that punch, as do a lot of other languages. But since Elm is a DSL it can afford to cap the abstraction somewhere whereas Haskell is perh

by verttii 7y ago
Our ways to hide that logic has been building libraries that handle nearly all of it. But since Haskell's ecosystem is small by comparison a lot of that logic leaks to your own application code. Especially when dealing with something l
147.
by verttii 7y ago
You mean that decomposing abstractions with substitution works better in Haskell than in a lot of the other languages because programs in Haskell are essentially (pure) functions and abstractions are built by composing functions?

Cool thanks! Now this explains a lot more of what I'd want to hear as a potential user

by verttii 7y ago
I've actually been building something similar myself. Although mine is mostly just for tracking stuff in your life and forming statistical analysis from the data. And I do nearly everything server-side. I think you guys should set up

Are you a native iOS dev? I feel Flutter is a major upgrade over React Native, but perhaps native devs just feel it still falls short on a lot of accounts.
