I did some quick benchmarking and for files under roughly 4096 bytes, not compressing with gzip was faster. It's not terribly exact, +-1000 bytes would probably not make a big difference, but I think it's a good default. And of co

That is pretty neat. Does it mean that one could do something similar for vectors and quaternions? let open Quaternion in x * y + x

GOPATH is no longer needed after Go 1.11 and Go 1.12.

The strengths of Go become apparent when working in teams and when deploying, not when reading blogs about the language before trying to write code in it.

Until you switch to sway, which is basically i3, but for Wayland. Good bye X11!

In a metaphorical sense, yes.

Yes, I am assuming that there are needs to be filled. Is this incorrect? Does not people want stuff, also in Spain? The limits on how much can be fished is a good point (but I assume the limits is in place to avoid over-fishing, which would

As long as there is a need to be filled (like food) and a way to fulfill needs (like fishing), there are jobs. There are plenty of jobs to be created, also in Spain.

How did you bootstrap the process of working alone? Did you start working on the side while having a non-remote job?

Those people are easily annoyed.

Great, now it's possible to create a "party detector" that will change the music and lights if there are enough people at home or in specific rooms.

Yes, I just have to cover the same functionality in other ways before removing my accounts.

I don't want WhatsApp (owned by Facebook) to run in the background on my phone at all times. I don't trust them, especially after Instagram (also owned by Facebook) started using the camera by itself on my phone, without my permis

Are you thinking about no-light perception and nonlinear programming?

Developers trying a management role and then returning to development is relatively common. You shouldn't worry if you wish to try it out for a year or two.

Is QNX used anywhere? Sounds interesting.

Isn't this what quantum computing wanted to achieve? What's next? Amoeba-resistant encryption algorithms?

I would argue that it was 2017. Desktop Linux was in a perfectly usable state in 2017, for many distros, and still is.

It looks great, but imagine the name of the software being "Moron3D". That is the reality for every native Norwegian speaker, since "dust" means "moron" in Norwegian. I don't mean this in a petty way, it&#

Returning -1 instead of an error is abusing the type system. In C, there is no error type, so it might be excusable there, but it is inexcusable in Go, IMO.

Reading the conclusion in the PDF, the Rust version is not faster than the C version and not necessarily safer either, since there is plenty of "unsafe" Rust code involved. While Rust is nice in some areas, I'm not convinced

You can still write that message to strout, there just isn't a brief "print" function.

Tools following the UNIX philosophy pride themselves on only bothering the user with output messages when something goes wrong.

If you have a command line application, you probably either want to use a library that provides colors and more features, or output to file (where writing to stdout is more appropriate than "print"). When developing, "print&q
