> 18 months... Certainly not enough time to find product market fit in many cases if you start out with only a vague idea. I don't understand how "only a vague idea" is able to raise millions of dollars in the first place.

>Opera did try to some interesting features such as "Unite" which -- if you squint a certain way -- was a form of p2p decentralization. Yes, it's interesting to have a built-in web server in the browser but not enough peop

The cross-stitch/counted-thread samplers look exactly like old-style pixel art, aside from the "fonts" and the subject matter. Plus ça change.

We independently reinvented an adaptation of this algorithm for Monte's "simple" quasiliteral, which does simple string interpolation and matching. The code at https://github.com/monte-language/typhon&#x2

E and Monte have safe eval() as a consequence of being object-based capability-safe languages; there's no way to cause any effect outside eval() worse than an infinite loop. To the second part of your question: as you have undoubtedly

Hi, compiler author here. You're not being downvoted for your POV, but because you're not grokking that the thing that you are asking for is fundamentally difficult. Nearly all serious compilers have at least one representation wh

I am not happy to hear this idea. If you convince people that science is true or real not by logic, but by rhetorical tricks, then you are no longer peddling truth; you are blindly proclaiming that science is the only correct epistemology.

There's an entire branch of the Smalltalk family with no classes, just prototypes, with Self, Python, JS, etc. and there's another branch without prototypes or classes, with E, Monte, etc. You're not wrong that Erlang and Sch

Getting tired of this shit. "Secure", as a word, does not make things secure. "Container", as a word, also does not make things secure. Sandboxes come in two flavors: Correct by construction, and exploitable. Which flavo

This misguided blogger thinks that object-based programming is necessarily about members and inheritance. It isn't. It's about message-passing and uniform interfaces and bundles of state and behavior. It's about ravioli code

First, to the immediate point: Ropes are not talked about much outside of whitepapers and undergrad data structure courses. This is a shame, even if ropes are only useful on very long strings. More discussion, more documentation, and more a

Lojban uses the Latin alphabet and is phonetic up to the "audiovisual isomorphism," which is exactly what it says on the tin.

Let's be honest, Gopher was not that bad, and the Web is quite bad. That said, I'm not sure whether the Web can be replaced with something more desirable; a lot of folks like the Web's inability to protect folks from each oth

DDoS continues to look like an economic problem; we should not have grown used to the idea that small amounts of bandwidth are effectively a free good.

As participation increases, quality declines, unless there are structural safeguards built into the system. I see nothing in Electron which suggests structural quality. I wonder whether rose-colored glasses are overly tinting the viewpoints

I find that it neatly fits the thesis; "King of the Hill" is a delightful satire of the inhabitants of a sleepy Texas town, and it's clearly influenced by Judge's time in Texas the same way that "Silicon Valley&quot

Sorry, I must be harsh. No. This fundamentally doesn't offer much advantage over a .toJSON() instance method and a .fromJSON() class method. Don't say "security-focused" if you can't handle cyclic object graphs.

Fix your group's culture. Document things. If people refuse to document things, then do it for them and shove your docs in their face. Do it until they write the documentation themselves.

Lojban focuses on relations , in the logical sense, between objects. Some relations are very concrete and familiar to English speakers and some are not. Here are some examples of Lojban relations: mlatu = x1 (entity) is a cat of species x2

Documentation is the only defense against tribal knowledge. If your turnover is low, you might not notice this, but that doesn't mean that it isn't biting you. Not all processes can be automated today. Some can only be automated t

There are languages like E and Monte where deadlocks aren't possible unless there is an actual loop in the data flow dependencies and race conditions are impossible, but they aren't commonly known.
