Visual Studio Code is built on Electron, the same node.js+webUI system built for Atom. So I believe it's a jab at both.

I simply do not believe this. I believe it is thriving because it was well-designed, by extremely influential individuals, and the early library work was stellar. Also, several other experienced and influential programmers tried it, and exp

As I understand it, Fiber is run as if it were an independent company, trying to make a great product, and run at a profit.

Misspelling Dan Bricklin's name within the first four words gives me low expectations…

I'm on the Shared Systems team at Square, and was on Abuse prevention at YouTube, so I pretty much seem to only land in cost centers :-) But I get to build RPC services and other cool infrastructure in Go.

I'm about the furthest from "trendy" you can imagine. But our quality of life living in Bernal Heights was amazing.

My base salary went up slightly, and my total compensation went down. We'll see how the options turn out.

I was afraid I'd end up in a corporate IT department in a big company that does something other than technology as its main thing. In Mikey Dickerson's talks about fixing Healthcare.gov he talks about two strains of programming: t

For anyone interested… We just moved back to Atlanta in September after five years in the Bay Area, to be closer to family, and to be able to afford a house, ever. I was well paid at Google, and loved working at YouTube. I also severely mis

One big question: will carriers still charge exorbitant per-message fees? And one huge question: will iOS support RCS?

It would be nice if this joined forces with Camlistore to hurry up the Scanning Cabinet replacement :-)

As I understand it, you would have seen the performance hit going from 1.4 to 1.5.

I think most of these are fun, and relatively harmless. And I think showing a spatial connection between states by having elements move is very useful. However, the ones that involve new UI elements moving into place are all slightly too sl

FWIW, I was trying to figure out if this was the Church successor (no, that's "Venture"), and found http://probcomp.csail.mit.edu/ , which gives an overview.

I can't recommend the Coursera compilers course highly enough. It was enough to get me from zero to a fully working compiler. Albeit for a simplified language, and a really bad compiler :-) If you did it in one of the languages for whi
