Maybe the answer is not the term "debt" but explaining the currency that you're paying the "debt" in? In the end, how did the non-technical founder take it?

It sounds like quite a good fit. If you have a simple resizing algorithm I would consider using WebGPU/WebGL and a fragment shader to do it though.

I took the gist of the original post as saying they didn't agree with the original article and didn't think age was the defining factor of employment problems at 40. That, by developing and demonstrating relevant skills they hadn&

For some more comparisons, the UK has free eye-tests for certain groups (children and at-risk) [1], but it costs around £20-25 (~$28-$35 at current exchange rate). [1] https://www.nhs.uk/nhs-services/opticians/free

Are there any meeting notes/chat logs for those discussions? It would be fascinating to get some insight into the design process for a modern VM.

Sort of. The integration needs to be done per-language, though helper packages like emacs-tree-sitter [1] exist. Afaik, C# mode currently uses it [2] though I'm not sure whether any other languages use it yet. [1] https://gi

It's full control; remote files, for example will have an hash which you inline [1] so that the resultant hash is correctly computed. [1] https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/blob/842f900e73c7ce985218cc...

Once you start using Sieve, you can also start doing more fine-grained filtering of mail to locations and archiving things which you care about with a couple of bash scripts and systemd timers/cron jobs.

"Boring" languages almost always equal more boilerplate. Personally, I'll take an expressive, GC'ed language, but write "boring"-ish code when I'm on a short time-frame and I have few developers. EDIT. Jus

This typically isn't possible because the rendering context is global and is needed for both loading and rendering. You need an Arc to guarantee the correct Drop mechanism.

I like that last sentence; is it something you came up with yourself or is it a quote?

Do you know whether there's going to be any near term support for ordering constraints (i.e. N < M) with the type-level numbers?

by ywei3410 6y ago
I don't understand why you call it "trickery or "fake". Church encoding of natural numbers is the same technique used in Agda, Coq and Idris to represent the Peano numbers. It's a completely valid encoding and isomo

Regarding your point about dimensions, it really isn't impossible; it requires a little bit of type-level mechanisms, but not very much and quite a few languages already have it. Here are some examples in some languages. The author of

They're also an example of a data-structure which works pretty in a concurrent setting - you can get away with a single atomic reference for an unbounded FILO queue implemented with a linked list. Adding and removing items to it is the

Jesus, do you have any sources (Chinese is fine) for this? This is horribly anti-consumer and I'm surprised there's not more of a push back if it's so common.

That's quite surprising; I've found the ads to be fairly unobtrusive compared to almost any other website. I would prefer there to be a text only mode though - every so often, the ad repaint will cause the UI to "jump".

This looks awesome! Do you mind elaborating on any kinks which you found?

Your assertion Western journalists haven't visited is false; see a summary here [1]. The whole site is very good - and the independent journalist speaks Chinese and is fairly unbiased (excerpt from site "the US makes a big deal ou

The hypothesis fails because it assumes all curves are the same - and all tech has the same number of kinks; which is patently false.

Oh man, we had a connection with an API recently where if you sent it some incorrect data it would just hang. No errors, no closing of the connection. Just hang. And ofc they don't offer a heartbeat over that channel. That would still

It's really a shorthand for writing lists - sexp's are lists, so can use the same syntax. Macro's in Lisp are essentially "just" functions where the arguments are un-evaluated - you can use all the same functions et

Or, to put it more strongly, if no-one mined bitcoin tomorrow, you literally can't transact anymore. Bitcoin PoW /needs/ the energy consumption to function at all.
