My take is that one of Datomic's original value props was that it ran in your Java app's process. That plus immutability plus cache-foo allowed you to write your Java app as-if your entire db was not only "in-memory",…
Communication problems need to be solved with protocols, not apps.
Hmm, I'd say more like reading the (original) source code of git itself to learn about Linus and his coding"philosophy" [0] vs reading a modern tutorial about how to use git. [0] I haven't done this so not putting any…
> An old work of philosophy does not describe the thing you are meant to be learning about. It was created by the thing you are meant to be learning about, much like watching a video from skater-Aristotle’s GoPro. And…

I agree, I don't like the magic string approach (even if it is mostly just dot-notation attribute lookup). However, there is some good stuff here, and nested data lookup when value existence is unknown is a pain point…
For simple cases like this it doesn't even cost a couple lines as sum() can take a generator expression: sum(planet['moons'] for planet in target['system']['planets'])
And then the salon and the restaurant start using Duplex as well, and all phone conversations become Google talking to Google. How bout: "Hey Duplex, call this support number and get a top level human manager on the…

ncurses seems powerful. Any good suggestions on a tutorial or introduction to ncurses (which it appears is what was used for the ui here)? Ideally for python, or generalized... Or is there a better tool to learn for…
Service that allows me to get paid for my next side project [451+ customers, each paying $XX per month]
Indeed, that's what we like to tell ourselves. But is that actually what's happening? Did you take the test?
Precisely the question. Why indeed? Would you be more likely to hire a man than a women for an engineering role? Take the harvard implicit gender bias test for one answer:…
I would read that.
I'm not sure how you got there from where I was.
This is precisely the myth of our culture that the article is trying to debunk. Instead of considering "wildness" as the observable actions of an individual (in our culture generally equated with "out of line"),…
