I understand your point, but wouldn't doing what you suggest lead to the problem of maintaining two different code bases? This doesn't seem like a good idea at all. I think a better approach would be to commit to their…
Like kyyd mentioned, fiio [1] is one of the best (if not the best) manufacturer of portable players. I've heard really good things about a Korean brand called Cowon [2] too. Have my eyes on their Plenue line ATM.…
That's great to know! The work you guys do is awesome!
Is this still active? I had the impression they (the project's creators) had left this in favor of Viking Code School [1]. Apparently Viking Code School has both Ruby and JS separate tracks (I may be misremembering,…
Thank you, this is the kind of information I was looking for! I still would like to see some real world comparisons, though. It sure sounds pretty impressive from your description!
I always hear people say how reliable mainframes are. But if I have a startup that needs to distribute its application among different regions of the world, how does a mainframe help me with that? It is still a single…
I don't think the point is feeling completely calm when things are going bad. For me, at least, one of the points of stoicism is learning how to take a step back and look at the situation through more rational lenses,…
I second this. "A Guide to the Good Life" is a fantastic introduction to Stoic principles. I also read "Stoicism and the Art of Happiness", but did not enjoy it as much. I think Irvine's book is more to the point. I've…
IIRC, there was a PR preparing upstream ocaml for multicore. I think multicore capabilities will be here soon. Would things like LWT or async help you in any way?
Man, I wish I had more experience with Rust. This looks really nice! Any chance you guys have a blog or something, talking about the experience of using Rust as a backend language?
AFAIK, there's nothing conclusive about supplementing brain functions. Examine.com has a good write up on creatine [1]. I've used creatine with the goal of increasing performance in strength training. I guess I'm a…
Same on Safari, didn't have to login to read.
Thank you for the thorough response! I'm still starting my learning of philosophy, going through Plato's works. I'm keep Kant and Nietzsche in mind :) PS: That Stanford page is awesome.
That essay sounds really interesting. How much background knowledge would I need to take advantage of it? I'm utterly ignorant of such matters, but I'm trying figure out how to go about learning this.
Seems to be the case. I'm the owner of an Xbox One, but I'm seriously considering selling it and getting a PS4 instead. There aren't many differences in exclusive games anymore, and Sony's games line up seems more…
I think this book is better suited to people that have already written a few games. It mostly talks about common patterns that arise during gamedev and how to work with them. IIRC, it shows trade-offs of different…
Thanks for sharing that! Just skimmed through it and seems pretty interesting. I'll read it more in depth later.
I've never tried it, but I hear good things about Kivy [1] [1] https://kivy.org/#home
I recently started going through Bartoz Milewski's Category Theory lectures [1]. I think they are a very nice place to start learning these things. [1] https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=I8LbkfSSR58
That sounds awesome! Is Haskell (or other fp languages) commonly used at Target?
Kinda. That page left out the part about macro cycling that leangains advocates for.
That blog looks great! Thank you for sharing :-)
Hmm, this just gave me an idea: Visual Studio Code Common Lisp plugin might also be a good way to expose the language to people unfamiliar to the language.
How does that book compares to Peter Shirley's Fundamentals of computer graphics [1] I'm interested in CG but don't really know where to start. [1] https://www.amazon.com/Fundamentals-Computer-Graphics-Fourth...
Yeah, I was expecting something like what you get in F#. But maybe it is just the nature of the [C#] language. Still, I think this looks more readable than if-statements. EDIT: Maybe it is just a bad example of pattern…
