Tidyverse code is not write-only; it is designed to be mostly read-only where the level of abstraction is at the level of the domain, which in this case is data frames and data pipelines akin to the same constructs in…
I concur with your sentiments having cultivated data science teams from the ground up with diverse educational backgrounds. Programming in base R is more akin to assembly language and has accreted a babel of…
The Chinese government has prevented plenty of US companies from doing business in China including Google, but more importantly is the rejection of patents and intellectual property and espionage conducted by Chinese…
This is the best justification for R: Its statistical lineage and adoption by researchers. There's plenty of great thinking manifested in these libraries and its community. This can't be understated.
R is quite good at developing DSLs (quite Lispy), but Julia is even Lispy-er with a more flexible syntax and unicode identifiers. R, definitely, has a great statistical lineage, but that is also unfortunately what…
Speed is not the only computational constraint - the tremendous memory required for very large data sets is often a severe limitation especially within R (and I actually enjoy R). This is Julia's native, in-language…

The irony is that if you use Patreon's search functionality to search for slurs and other hate speech you will find plenty more blatant and obvious instances on their own platform.
Agreed. The `raw` data collection should be transparent and in a format that is not locked into Excel spreadsheets.
Reals are not equivalently as unrealizable or dubious as infinitesimals. Infintesimals can be constructively specified as nilpotent/nilsquare entities, numerical entities which when squared equal 0 but where those…
Some context: this was published before the Wikileaks Vault 7 release.
I'm unsure about what danger is being exposed here outside of what other agents have or are currently employing. Can someone give some more perspective regarding the significance of this?

Disagree about the idea that those who are unfamiliar with type theory prefer dynamic typing. Typing preferences are usually due to trends in language usage having little to do with knowledge. Plenty of java programmers…
Not sure the example of fitting a square peg into a round hole is a good one to demonstrate the adapter pattern. Also, would a Java programmer really reach for that pattern first for this example?
To moms. To women. Thanks Raganwald.
Fuck no.
Agreed. Early returns should function as guards.
As a former academic I find this kind of behavior antithetical to the principle's of science. The scientific publishing industry is archaic and a burden on the progress of science. These journals are gatekeepers for…
Regardless of whether this reviewer is real, the laughs were worth it.
Rails is opinionated (and there is some entrenched baggage from the way PHP did things). It actually requires considerable effort to be able to structure your code with OO best principles with decoupled dependencies.…
Genius! (~_^)

There is nothing wrong in not liking OO. But OO is an ambiguously defined paradigm and unlike functional programming doesn't really have a definitive calculus. However, Peter Landin did show that untyped OO could be…
