I think the disconnect is that you seem to consider religious texts as a dry statements of fact. That doesn't make any sense, they're clearly not that. Would you say the same about great works of fiction, or old fairy…
It seems to me that your stand is analogous to anarchists' about law and government. Sure, there's a tyrannical aspect that can get out of hand, but it's far from the whole story.
It's interesting how people come and mock without having any framework of understanding the thing. It's almost like a lost language. Consider air - it is immaterial, the spirit/principle/reason/meaning/pattern of…
That would be fair if OO/FP posts had always mentioned that the ideas were borne out of academia and don't necessarily easily apply in other domains, but that ship has sailed..
Huh? Coffee shops optimize for people not bumping into each other and having related items close together, and don't pretend to not know what kind of gear they have.. that's not a terrible analogy to the exact opposite…
Sure, many people do, and some don't. I suppose the point I'm trying to make is that decisions like that make one consider what are the assumptions and target audience of a project. In this case, as a potential user, if…
I'm wondering if the premise was that people compiling other people's code should be prioritized over "actual" users who develop their software using the compiler, who then would need to resort to external tools to do…
And doesn't processing necessitate buffers? How does this approach reduce the number of buffers involved? If anything, it sounds like less sharing would mean more buffers.
Never did any audio programming, I still can't make heads or tails out of it. Is it expected that an application sets up some processing graph for an engine to play a sound? [1] Instead of writing samples to a buffer in…
Maybe not the most formal of meanings, but my favorite is a probabilistic one: given a random element, how likely it is that it satisfies a predicate? If some elements don't, but it's still satisfied with probability 1,…

Is it just me? This website is super laggy on my PC (which can run modern games just fine). Hardly hits 50 fps when scrolling. How slow can one get and still claim to be fast?
Cool! Maybe it's because it contains phase information which is not that relevant to hearing. FWIW I remember long time ago using it for image processing and the trick was to look at a sections of it, i.e. TC(p1, p2)…
I'm guessing that triple correlation could also be rendered into pretty pictures, did you try that?
Not knowing what you consider a hard problem, I think most of them are not of the kind that a language can do much about. It can easily be a drag though, for example by being too high-level and taking control away from…
