I wonder what this means for manned spaceflight that SpaceX is working on. Is it still a waste of money, or have things changed enough to make it worth it?

I see a lot of untypeable code (in views). Doesn’t that slow you down whenever you want to make a change in an existing codebase?

I feel like this is a great article, but is very hard to digest for someone without statistical background and working knowledge of its jargon. Pretty sure it could be amended only slightly, using common language terms, for larger audience

While I can’t vouch for every org at my company, it sounds like you’re in a bad place and might benefit from switching orgs/companies.

I think your question implies something that is clearly invalidated by the interview: > JP: As a lab, our objective is to match human intelligence. We're still very, very far from that, but we think it’s a great objective.

The answer is aggressive prefetching. How much to prefetch depends on each UI structure and the weight of the prefetched components.

For example pasting a piece of code in the middle of a typed line is more convenient with a “mouse” driven cursor. I use a Macbook as my keyboard/trackpad combo, so my “mouse” is actually extremely close to the keyboard, and I don’t ha

Btw CRA is essentially what traditional IDEs have had for decades baked in - it’s just that the JS world doesn’t (yet) revolve around monolithic IDEs.

The sam editor is interesting. I use iterm and tmux over mosh, has anyone figured out a simple text editor that supports cursor based cut and paste? I really just want a notepad-like editor, for the rare cases I’m not using Sublime/Ato

My biggest problem is: How do you break up a software system? I understand how you break up a company that mines ore, produces steel, builds railways, runs transportation - those are all separable ventures that can negotiate contracts almos

These bugs are typical of wysiwyg implementations. The only true, great, wysiwyg (but not really) editor is Bear, which is actually mostly markdown, but done in a way that lay person could use it without ever remembering any markdown. It’s

The first 4 and last 2 screenshots on homepage are blurry on a retina iPhone, but the one in between them is sharp. Some resolution issue?

People use this in presentations, but wait if you make a mistake across many slides :) I think it’s worth looking into a better way to create presentations with code (there are many).

Cool. Running a Haskell program with a compiler error doesn't show the error.

I just find it a non-traditional approach from a company with such a long history. I'm personally happy having an assigned desk at my job.

Lego is a really cool company. One fun fact: At least the "techy" parts don't have assigned desks. They're also investing in cool new tech, like compostable lego (of course, no easy feat given the requirements on durabil

On the topic of "where do I put this function", for "library/utility" functions, I really like the Hack Standard Library approach: Organize namespaces by the types of return values (or arguments). So we have Vec&#x2

How does F# on Fable compare to Elm and Purescript, and how is each doing these days?

I love reading these ideas, similar in "otherwordliness" to Rich Hickey's, but the silent majority goes against them. Giving every programmer the ability to create a language of their own does not work out well. (similarly, o

Also for non-slavic speakers' interest: “ne” is No, and “dělat" is Work, so Sunday is literally the day of "Nowork".

Using the "Sapiens" definition, the market is a second order chaotic system - chaos which reacts to predictions of its future. If everyone expects recessions to happen on a certain date, can it really happen? Are there any books y

On the topic of what quality is, I recommend reading the book Zen and the Art of Motorcycle Maintenance. (Also on the topic of debugging, if you replace "motorcycle maintenance" with "computer software debugging")

To you and parent's points: I think Harari dwells on the this distinction so much because one "model" can be changed, and one cannot. The whole book is a cry for people to understand that most facts of life stem from the stor

If you find this interesting, check out Bear with its nested tags, which are executed brilliantly.
