The eclipse will destroy everything we hold dear! It started with the poorest failover system known to man! GGit hub deserves every piece of criticism they get. How they can receive so much funding and help and still…
Yeah no shit, that's the point. Kotlin is only 0.1% less kludgy and gross than regular java. Ceylon will find footing in enterprise now that android developers are busy ruining kotlin ecosystem.
No, no, the LtU discussion is a million times more interesting.
Not OP, but I'm chiming in. The crux of his original argument was that inventing more languages begets more semantics to keep track of, more syntax to know, overall more conplexity. A scheme codebase of sufficient…
No, Julia uses correct indexing. ;)
Scala is a great language. There's room to shoot yourself in the foot, but maybe you should watch your muzzle more if you're having that problem. Imo the biggest obstacle in scalaverse is sbt and implicits. 10000% the…
They can barely get text search right, how in the hell are they going to manage an entire video platform? Gotta hustle those investors somehow, I guess.
The reason it's so expensive to live near SF is because of people like this. Your landlord knows how much you'll pay if they know you work in the gay area and will tolerate a 5-hour commute. It's the same reason NJ is…
Yeah but humans can more easily make macro-decisions based on micro situations. It's easier for us to look at a map and figure out which side is winning, sometimes that's really hard for a computer to do. I'm not a…
ScalaJS already is a real player, it just doesn't stack up to Typescript. I'm not making this shit up out of thin air, look at usage numbers. Purescript is not going anywhere, most likely ever.
I was going for just the overview
def memento(x=Float::INFINITY) memento(x-1) end
I mean they can but we won't get paid if our megacorp overlords don't get their .NET drivel.
At no point did I ever claim to be. I don't write my comments to be later convinced, I write them to inform and broaden the microscopically narrow-mindedness that pervades HN. So, your welcome. I do it for you, the…
Scala is not even remotely stagnant. Scala programmers are becoming stagnant, but scalac hasnt experienced any major growth slowdowns, Scala native is progressing quite a bit, ScalaJS is still a thing, and Dotty seems…
The fallacy there is that Clojure development is drastically slowing in favor cljs. Because there's jobs doesn't mean anything with regards to dev status. My dad has been writing COBOL for 30+ years, but I think we…
Have you ever looked at Julia? I mention it just because I've had almost a carbon-copy of that conversation but I showed them Julia and now that person actually is writing Julia for their startup. That person is doing…
Incredibly well-spoken. I've even had devs ask me if we can use Scala instead after a couple days!
"Exercise intellectual gratification by not saying things I don't want to hear!" You should read this whole thread again, from the top down. At this point, you're arguing MY point for me. I've been using HN since 2008,…
Oh jeez, earning your respect for my argument was the entire point! That it hurts to hear doesn't make it wrong. Edit: To twist the knife a bit, your comment could be paraphrased as "You're right, but you said a thing I…
What's not manly about that? I'd fuck Lauren too. Granted, I might not tweet it out quite like that, but yeah. You don't get to determine morality based off someone's speech, only off their actions. Until they actually…
A lesson in what? Tyranny? Should I show congress respect because they think they have power over me? PC culture is approaching it's logical conclusion: the metamorphosis into fascism. Shkreli opposes it as much as most…
Neither are making "big strides". They both are barely able to exist. Eta will never even approach Scala in terms of adoption, and I had only heard about Purescript a few weeks ago reading about Elm. Typescript will…
Disclaimer: I'm a huge fan of Shkreli. Great guy, excellent financial instincts, pharma wizard etc. I'm surprised he didn't get assassinated for some of that stuff with Wu-Tang, especially in NY. I know I've been…
I've experienced sort of a diagonal problem to this. F# is way too entwined with .NET to be immediately useful to programmers familiar with Ocaml or Scala or Haskell, etc. Some of the basic List., Array. stuff is simple…
