Yes in both theme and style, I agree. While I appreciate pretty much everything by Borges, his dives into the infinite were the most memorable.
Congratulations on the launch! Really intriguing product. How well would it work for a company that has the kinds of artifacts that you mentioned, but that lacks the quality/precision/accuracy that Hyper might need? I'm…
For building web applications or a system that includes logic that needs to run on the web? TypeScript is mature enough, and it's top tier for domain modeling. As long as you stay disciplined, Claude Code will write…
Agreed -- it's a wonderful film, and deserves a special place right up there with Star Wars and Harryhausen for its practical effects. While the article mentions Moebius, I think this level of praise still merits an…
Agreed! Investing lightly at this stage seems smart if your time/attention budget is tight.

I'm wondering: why now, in early 2026? Why not last year? Why not in July? What changed? What does this teach us about Anthropic and what can we infer about their competition?
YMMV, of course. I set up our actions pipeline four years ago and basically never have to worry or even think about it. The UI isn't perfect, but it's good enough. Our scenario: relatively simple monorepo, lots of…
Last I knew, Rider was pretty much the only IDE available for a large codebase when you weren't on Windows. Much love for Ionide, but it was a serious struggle. Is this any better now?
I think I agree with you. When I was part of a growing F# team a number of years ago, everyone we hired was an enthusiast who just loved coding in F# and wanted an opportunity to do it professionally. It turned out that…
For a great sci-fi treatment of the dangers of mirror life, see Fantastic Four 5-6 (2023) by Ryan North. Yes, that Ryan North, and no, it's not your "typical" comic book.
Flatland is a classic, though it's almost a pamphlet. While you asked for a novel, I can't resist recommending the short fiction of Borges.
Perfection for Leibniz might be considered more of a logical concept than an observable state. After all, he uses the same thing to argue (somehow) for the existence of god!…
Justifiably! Supply-chain attacks have occurred via npm, and have been widely reported. A lack of oversight and lack of standard libraries are often cited as the cause. I don't know if it's a problem for Rust (or other…
Would you kindly clarify your point? A supreme court justice is not a state or local official (as I understand the terms), so the ruling won't protect him.
dotenv has zero npm dependencies. dotenvx has 21, including a few I have never heard of. Is this really more secure?
fwiw Global Specialties has been making "protoboards" like this for decades. They're pretty expensive, though.
There is still something to be said for "real world uniqueness" (GIS coordinates) or deferring to a third party to establish identity (license plate numbers). Identifiers like these aren't always available, but within…
Big thank you for clarifying -- I missed that. This approach is far less unsavory that some other attempts that I've seen.
Verbatim from OP.
It depends on what you're trying to achieve. If there are sufficient structural differences, you're fine (`"foo" in myThing` can discrimate) but if two types in your union have the same structure, TS doesn't give you a…
Sure! You need a `type` field (or something like it) in TS. You don't need that in a language like F# -- the discrimation occurs strictly in virtue of your union definition. That's what I meant by "native support."
