I use an instance, not for this but similar personal use. You can run a micro for (close to?) free and if you're doing nothing on it, that should be fine. Unless you have huge codebases checking in I think the built in storage would be

I'd argue that the incentives of a company who made their fortune and moat on deliberately incompatible lock-in OS/software are permanently broken, so I agree with you but come to the opposite conclusion.

EA has been around for a while and the Gates foundation is the exception not the rule.

The root of "null is a mistake" isn't that null is a mistake, it's that it's a mistake to allow null into a type system in such a way that it can cause non-compile-time type errors. So Julia is typed ( I think) but

4. If you hold the conversation in private, you’re almost guaranteed to avoid everything below the lower dotted line. Everything below that is a show put on for spectators. This is definitely not true. I think most people have social shamin

You can definitely mess up with python envs but JS absolutely doesn't have all the features I listed. It doesn't have anything like python's built in power of classes, it's not just having a class syntax which is a thin

This is out of date, 3/2 is 1.5 in latest python. I don't know what you mean by built in support for missing data but at language level there is None and in numpy/pandas there is np.NaN

I'd kind of assume everyone on HN has made their minds up about languages and I'm not qualified to change the opinions of any of them or even really try to be informative. So the puke is just for the (70% at a guess?) people who w

If that's true, this stuff just changed the world more than half of the political issues that people march on streets about. The brightest people in office jobs around the world that aren't well integrated with developer teams (al

Out of curiosity, is there a place to do this with low transaction fees and low counterparty risk?

I heard of bitcoin pretty early on in /b/ and have no regrets. I also don't regret that I wasn't alive to cash out at the right time on tulips or penny stocks or dot com companies, or even stuff which turned out to stick

You could switch to mobile data on downtime? And make that switch automatic/unobtrusive?

Exactly, that's what I meant but I should have emphasised it more. Everyone overpays, but they overpay in proportion to how sticky their business is to a specific property. It would take someone who knows more about commercial property

I think the biggest problem with it, even with industrial stuff, is that it's ignoring transaction costs of moving buildings? Eg. I buy a property that I want to use as a factory. Some people who work for me move their own accomodation

I agree with what I think your perspective is, that the internet is kind of impossible to regulate. But maybe in this situation it's not so impossible to do something useful, Facebook is so effective at the moment because it's a c

It's a decent question, here's the reason why people are upset... Politics is something that we create to allow sharing of power between people NOT only in direct proportion to their money/military power but one man one vote.

Good of you to point then out for us then, thanks.

I think this completely changes what you have though, in a way that's no longer a primitive? You then have something like an async generator, which is like a fusion of asynchrony and sequence? Except generators are pull not push, so in

Meanwhile most people who have to use the web as a platform to build things view it as an incredibly painful mash of half implemented ideas and couldn't care less what the founders intended. Let's stop using divs for presentation

It's posers not poor people, generally. The partly due to the savings is a red herring.

I see it's possible to embed it in jupyterlab, it seems to do a lot: * grid format * graph format * actual pivoting of data Is that right? It's using webassembly so in effect to do the pivot you must have created functions that ex

As far as I know, Haskell's metaprogramming uses template haskell which works but isn't a super elegant/beautiful solution relative to lisp?

I think it's fair to be off-hand sceptical without digging into the details of the paper. Since we don't really understand depression, it seems fairly obvious that it would be nigh on impossible to control for causes we don't

Talking about the push for implicit quotas in tech companies/all companies. Kind of obviously.

The mental doublethink that enables outrage over this but tacitly accepts gender quotas is amazing.

You mean dichotomy, and the war is pretty much over everything supports python3 now.

I think it's too reductionist to assume that evolutionary drives are "solved" because survival is assured. Reproduction with an (genetically/physically/socially) fit partner and strong prospects for your children ar
