no one wants to automate themselves out of a job, only other people.
Just a heads up, your javascript doesn't work for me in Chrome because it's assigning to a global `history` variable. `window.history` is read-only so the js errors out. If you scope your function or rename the variable…
Funny, Sublime was my gateway drug to Vim. It has "Vintage Mode" (which gives you vim keybindings) which I enabled just for macros since they are so powerful. After a month of going directly to insert mode I started…
Not sure of the original intent, but when I started using Rust I used Rust By Example for finding snippets of things like file io where I get the gist but want to quickly see the pattern or involved parts of the stdlib.…
I can't help but feel we're all underestimating boredom in this scenario. Yeah, you have to survive, but eventually things will be stable enough for there to be SOME downtime, with very few options for entertainment.…
Humans have an amazing capacity for addiction. It may be easy to say no to micropayment games, but "products that engender addiction" is a very broad and fuzzy category.
For any other casual viewers unfamiliar with but interested in economics, the 'r' refers to return on capital and 'g' refers to the growth rate of the economy. This section of the wikipedia article on his book seems to…
Luckily, the author himself wrote one! http://www.logicmatters.net/tyl/shorter-tyl/
I'm most interested in deterministic languages. Non-deterministic context-free languages would be extremely interesting as well but more out of curiosity than an applicable need. Thanks!
Veering a bit offtopic, but does anyone have any pointers to important recent work on parsing? There are alot of papers out there and I guess I don't know how to sift through them. I've heard the "parsing is solved"…
Would someone mind fixing the typo in the title? It's AvanceDB, not AdvanceDB. Due to the bravado of a name with "advance" in it, it might actually make a difference to how it's perceived.
This is alot of fun. Would it be really difficult to be able to "blacklist" pages from the UI? I keep trying to come up with really disparate topics to find interesting connections, but everything is linked by…
For those interested in seeing the language, the README has a link to the tutorial ( http://masak.github.io/007/ ) hidden at the very bottom of the (highly entertaining) narrative.
I'm really curious as to what exactly you mean by this...does the same code through the same compiler not reliably produce the same binary? I know very little about actual compiler mechanics, but non-deterministic…
Just switched to OSX for work, and i3 is the only part of my workflow I can't replace. I dearly dearly miss it.
This could be really cool, but I can also see it getting distracting and increasing oversight. The >= and <= signs look nice in Fira Code and Hasklig, but I worry I'd accidentally see them as > and < when debugging.…
Just out of curiosity, what makes those things any different? Do you feel caffeine helps you do your job or is it just something you enjoy?
It's a combination of the fact that the source video takes place in a club with some flashes/strobe effects going on, and the fact that the algorithm looks at things frame by frame (more or less.) When it flashes it…
What bothers me isn't the isolated color scheme, but that without a ton of work (rolling it yourself?) the javascript in .js, .html, .erb, and any other file it might be in is highlighted completely differently.
I totally agree (except for the new-grad conspiracy.) I use Go whenever I need to do something small that requires a simple server or API interaction. Especially if it requires alot of concurrency. It's still a joy to…
Historical Baggage. If someone starts speaking Russian, we've got a whole cultural idea of what it means for them to be speaking that language. I expect they wouldn't want to tint character personalities with biases…
Just playing devil's advocate: that doesn't necessarily rule it out. You could argue that part of your memory is lost and so it doesn't effect your identity. Or more likely, when those memories were fresh they…
To pick up the basics of a language similar to one you already know? Sure. I used this site to write something in Nim just a few days ago. Do I know the conventions or idioms? No. Do I know the advanced features of Nim?…
Working on one! Give us a few more weeks though, we don't wanna release something we aren't 100% happy with, even as a 0.1 .
Do you mind me asking why? I was going to implement the protocol as an intro rust project, but Wikipedia and others called it obsolete so I ended up falling back onto the familiar IRC bot. My interest is still piqued…
