I've been investing in taking notes to enable better understanding of the material. I tend to follow Andy Matuchak's philosophy on note taking (https://notes.andymatuschak.org). But, I've only really started taking…
If it helps, currently if you buy the Nexus 5X from Project Fi, it is about $150 cheaper than retail (Google Store) value. https://fi.google.com/about/phones/ - 16GB $199 / 32GB $249
Things seems a little buggy. It just told me that alt+b was wrong for backward word in emacs, but that's what it just told me was how to do it in the learning portion of it.
Would following their advice of changing your password actually help in this situation? While it's a good practice in general, if I'm understanding this right, the attacker never has your password.
I think the Haskell example should've used this type signature instead. Compared to the OP's example, this has a much stronger implication. There's very few implementations of this type that would make sense, whereas…
I don't have a lot of trust in Dropbox caring about the casual users. [Votebox] is filled with suggestions around 3 years old that have generally gone unaddressed. And this is probably rationalized as "Dropbox works…
and since Haskell has non-strict evaluation, we don't have to worry about generating too much data (list of inexistant files) for nothing. Be careful here. Because you're in the IO monad, the entire list of files will…
Yeah, I'll likely end up using S3. Or maybe even bitbucket. But there's a very real and somewhat irrational negative emotional response when going from free to not-free. Or alternatively, from included in private costs…
Good for them on cutting bloat and focusing on what's important to them. Bad for me as now I have to find another service to store my project binaries and (likely) add to my monthly bills.
From their compiled heist docs [1]: There are two things that compiled Heist loses: the ability to bind new splices on the fly at runtime and splice recursion/composability. I haven't checked or read the doc thoroughly,…
Similar concept but a little simpler and avoids manually written recursion. notes = cycle ["c", "c#", "d", "d#", "e", "f", "f#", "g", "g#", "a", "a#", "b"] majorSteps = [2, 2, 1, 2, 2, 2] :: [Int] scale note = map…
I personally don't suggest the truly ergonomic. While it's well designed from the outset, the underpinnings are a bit lacking. The existing firmware is buggy and has issues with Mac; and the programmable software has…
While I prefer the module solution, it's not always possible when you have mutually recursive record definitions. Well, technically it is possible - but it's very unpleasant [1]. [1]…
I think it's referring to the sudoku TDD blog series that happened a few years back. Essentially, someone tried to implement a sudoku solver using TDD - and after several posts, never managed to finish. Peter Norvig…
I'd like to second SICP and specifically the accompanying book - available online at http://mitpress.mit.edu/sicp/full-text/book/book.html
I'm starting to reach this point too. And I can't seem to convince myself to buy fancy (expensive) keyboards - even though I /know/ I should.
Jakob Nielson argues that, specifically in usability testing, 5 people gives you a majority of your flaws but not the entire picture - where ~15 people would give you that. That is to say, more is better but there is…
I fully agree. For instance, PHP implements it's own round function. Now there very well may be a good reason they don't just use/implement the C99 round - but one can at least expect it not to change. This isn't true,…
