Yeah, I used to mud/moo back in the day (1994-1998 probably, since that's when I was at school), but apart from infrequent ifcomp-inspired excursions, I haven't tried any lately.

I clicked through to your map link, expecting something massive, sprawling, and Tolkeinesque. In retrospect, what I got was what I should have expected. Also, makes me grin: so perfectly typically MUD. :-)

Man, that makes me sad. I guess Fuchsia might end up being better than nothing. I wish one of the Google/Facebook/Apple/Microsoft/Amazons of the world would take up the flag and commit to a 10- to 20- year project :-)

Do any of the actually-bulletproof ones have enough momentum to have any likelihood of one day being widely used? It's sad that so many of them always seem to meander into dead-ends, or result in proprietary offshoots aimed at high-ass

I used to think only crazy ivory-tower research project proposed rebuilding our operating systems from the ground up using sound methods, proved correctness in the inner parts, and better languages: a nice idea, but a bit crazy, and unlikel

I've been reading the ebookified versions of older posts from his site: I think I'm on volume 8 or 9 now :-) In particular I highly recommend his digression (in the context of Trinity) on the history of the atomic bomb: a coworker

I took it to mean "for any given option, reason tries to take that option to the absolute extreme". As a programmer, I'm used to thinking of if/then choices as "conditionals".

It appears to be an svg. It could have been drawn using any number of tools, or by hand: svg is remarkably understandable. In this case, it was drawn with Inkscape: view source on http://sarabander.github.io/sicp/html&#

Having written a recursive descent parser after reading Bob's Pratt Parser post (and the other three notable Pratt Parser blog posts), I can attest to the fact that you can attain it :-)

My advice: stay away from Battlestar. I'm still mad at the writers these many years later. They kept pulling you on, making you believe they had any idea whatsoever about plot. They didn't.

This is actually very closely based on CommonMark, according to the article.

If you have any skills or interest in this area, the dep team could use your help. Even just trying it out, running into trouble, and filing bugs would be helpful. Join #vendor on the Golang Slack.

by zellyn 10y ago
Well, you can vendor, or you can have an internal mirror/cache of repositories.

I believe the current intended use is a human-editable "manifest file" where you specify desires/intent, preferably semver, ideally only as necessary, and a machine-generated "lock file" which specifies the actual h

There has been a lot of talking between the committee that created `dep` and folks who've implemented other systems, including Cargo. I have high hopes.

I kept hoping Gogs (or Gittea) would really take off - I love the single-binary Go philosophy. This looks fantastic. I'm afraid the killer deciding feature is going to be the hardest to implement: good code reviews. Github has recently

Seconded.

The article made it unclear what the difference between a "digital twin" and an engine-specific record is. I assume the difference is that they're building a model of some kind, but you wouldn't know that from searching

FYI, there's currently a fairly interesting related discussion going on under my comment on the "disappearing CRTs" article: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=13802917

Awesome! I've actually seen people reference that as the most accurate emulation they'd ever seen. Perhaps we should add noise to the OpenEmulator one too! :-) [Edit] the bending, and shadowing to the right of the characters is am

Oh, one more note: I do not believe it would work with a light gun.

I've been working on an existing Apple II emulator, OpenEmulator, which takes an interesting (and as far as I know, unique in the Apple II emulator world) approach: it renders a fairly raw NTSC-like signal, and then uses GPU shaders to

Coincidentally, I just watched this last night: it's a really accessible refresher if you're a bit outdated on how all these caches work and interact: https://youtu.be/OFgxAFdxYAQ

Just FYI, Go has a (currently experimental, linux-only) plugin mechanism now. Of course, it's not cross-platform… yet.

Well, it's video conferencing, so of course sometimes it completely fails to work for no discernible reason. But generally, yes, it's pretty reliable. :-)

I don't think any of it's made by Google. I think we have these or something similar: https://enterprise.google.com/chrome/devices/#meetings
