IANAL either but I agree, that is a statement of copyright which is not unusual, but there is no licence and therefore we have no right to copy & use it.
When I mentioned speed, I obviously wasn't ruling out C++ on that basis - but I would rule out Python or Node. Java is fast enough when going but the awkwardness of needing a JVM plus abysmal runtime memory usage make…
That's kind of my point; the code might not be as beautiful as we could ever imagine, but as a product it works extremely well, and would be worse if it carried around a lot of runtime baggage and poor performance which…
It isn't necessarily a bad idea to start with a minimal design and add features later once the implementation is more mature. Even if Go never gets generics, it's still a good solution for a number of problem domains…
Specific lanes for citizens of the country have existed for a very long time, but the article calls the issue out as having mostly arisen in the last three years. Seems unlikely that a thing that had already been there…
Yes, we have adopted Go for a lot of things at work and I have reviewed code of many of our devs who are more or less Go novices. It has indeed been pretty easy to understand - much easier than other languages (notably…
Quite a few of the consequences are discussed here: https://what-if.xkcd.com/124/
On the bright side, your code will always be as easy to understand as a novice's code too, so it conserves other programmer's mental cycles as well.

Definitely some ambitious goals. There's nothing bad about that, but this has an awfully long way to go - e.g. searching for "hacker news" works fine, searching for almost anything else didn't find anything relevant. So…
Not from those EU regulations - PSD2 is more recent than most of those challengers. They've popped up because the FCA (the UK regulator) deliberately tried to make it easier to start banks in order to get more…
You need to do more than just #include it - it is implemented in one .c file but that is not a header, so you'd still need to compile that separately and link it in somehow.
It's not the reason the author gives, but one advantage is that you don't need LTO for some optimisations. Sqlite has a single-file distribution for that reason. On the downside, it is quite slow to compile and not…
Yes, we do. I assume the cost of changing them all (and the resulting confusion and potential danger) was deemed too high.
I agree, my vastly preferred option now is Python code and C code with cffi to glue them together. I find that much preferable to Cython which is basically a third language altogether (and IMO not an especially nice…
I've used this before - really nice library and an easy way of getting started without having to write so much custom code. Only down side is that of course it's still faster to hand-write a parser :)
Unfortunately we didn't exchange one for the other, the front benches today are bereft of both.
That was the system they already had, spinning out a clone of the old one they were using was presumably seen as the easiest way to separate the two banks. And for all the negative press it got in that article, it did…
If people have done architecture-specific things they may not compile (or worse, crash inexplicably at runtime). I tried doing more or less that (compiling a C++ Windows app for 64-bit) a few jobs ago and eventually…
You obviously don't need to know the CEO just "to get healthcare" - her friend was already being treated. It only seems to be necessary as a means of getting access to expensive private treatments that were otherwise…
Like Bigtable, MapReduce and Tensorflow haven't had any impact outside advertising...
It looks like that's what it is doing: https://github.com/ShivamSarodia/ShivyC/blob/156a71bce7f340d... The exceptions seem to be how it signals failure if the token doesn't match, but they aren't being used for…
We're using them between Python <-> Go with no problems. Can't remember exactly what version it was at when I first tried it but it's worked fine for two years or more.
print as a statement vs. function doesn't carry that much weight when you have tens of millions of lines of currently working code to migrate.
We have done more or less that: https://please.build / https://github.com/thought-machine/please It's written in Go so doesn't need any external dependencies unless you want to target that language (i.e. it only needs a…
