Yeah, this is Erlang: fib(0) -> 0; fib(1) -> 1; fib(N) -> fib(N-1) + fib(N-2).
Having recently run into some non-obvious crappy performance characteristics with I/O in Erlang, I'm curious if you have any pointers to docs or code that shows how to use Erlang I/O correctly so it's fast?
I'm curious, why would you write that game in Node now, if you already know Erlang? From my perspective, Erlang is a better fit than Node for all the problem domains that Node is good at. I understand using Node if you…

Weekends are forced vacation too. It'd be great if companies adopted a "floating weekends" policy too, for the same reasons I outlined, but no company I've come across seems to do so, officially (you do see unofficially…
Forced vacation isn't freedom. If August isn't a convenient time to take a vacation, and the employee would rather work, let them work and take that chunk of time off at some other point. If taking that time off another…
There's actually 5 charging stations that Tesla installed on the 101 between SF and LA. If we got serious about electric cars, higher charging station density would help with long trips. And I agree, SF<->LA is…
FWIW, the longest stretch of interstate without services is I-70 in Utah, at 106 miles. I don't think I-80 has any >100 mile stretches without gas, but possibly 80 mile stretches. Off interstates though, the west…
Reasonably good presentation, but this stuck out at me: > One team that started with Erlang and moved to Java so they could find programmers. Think about those scenarios. If the people you are hiring can't pick up…
I've also used private ETS tables for this.
Kayak's got them now actually, but only schedules, not prices.
git ls-remote will help you to get the hash of HEAD. It's much cheaper than doing a zero-depth clone.
Yeah, here's a paper on that topic: http://www.sussex.ac.uk/linguistics/documents/where_do_mama2...
I've noticed that sorted sets have noticeably more overhead than the other types.
T-Mobile is fine in the mission in my experience.
http://www.thinkwiki.org/ is a good resource for figuring out Linux compatibility. I also recommend Thinkpads. The T and W series are good too.
Careful with casting strings to ints like that, it'll break on architectures that require aligned accesses, i.e. if you try to load a uint32, the address of the memory location must be a multiple of 4. x86 happens to be…
> No security check, no long waits, no cattle herding. Not all trains. With Eurostar (Paris<->London) there's a security checkpoint with an x-ray and metal detector, along with passport control.
Yeah, but tweets aren't limited to the GSM 7-bit character set, so if you tweet in say, Russian, 140 characters is too much, because the whole message needs to be encoded using 2-byte characters. Twitter's limitation is…

It's interesting Kogi BBQ is mentioned, because that to me is an example of the dysfunction around Twitter. Twitter started out as an SMS service, yet these days they cannot reliably deliver SMS messages. Kogi is…

Traffic in SOMA is a lot less around evening rush hour, because there isn't a mess of cars backed up on the streets leading up to the I-80 enterance. Traffic is worse, however, around the other bridges in the area,…
