It has a clear purpose the public can get behind, but it will almost certainly be abused for persecuting domestic political rivals, software developers among them. Here are some entertaining thought exercises: A cyber 9/11 is linked to

How considerate. As if the legal system matters at all to the existence of the NSA. Wikimedia's case notwithstanding, it's abundantly clear the spy agencies can only be peacefully resisted with privacy enhancing technology. It&#x2

The Stasi controlled every aspect of life in East Germany, including the postal service and communications industry. In the US, FOIA documents reveal a history of domestic political spying on civil-rights leaders such as MLK, and on a wide

The Nazis would say the same of the Gestapo to dissenters, albeit with a tinge less arrogance.

You can do worse than pip and virtualenv, yes, but I wouldn't call pip the cream of the crop by any means. NPM is way easier to use for starters, and Go, Rust and Nim go one step beyond NPM by compiling language dependencies down to a

I see Go and OCaml recommended to people fed up with Python's lack of static typing, and I just cringe. I love experimenting with programming languages, and Go seems to be picking up momentum but unfortunately for both Go and OCaml, th

Paul was presenting the information in a politically correct format. The US would never carry out such a cowardly act of state sponsored terror.

Having seen multiple young open source projects, like Nim, play themselves out over the course of my many years in the Bitcoin space, I expect the savviest developers at this point to benefit most from Nim by establishing themselves as core

As reasonable as that is, "if you build it, they will come", is a myth. Say you have an excellent product, and I would absolutely say Nim is excellent. With priority #1 out of the way, you have to speak up for yourself.

Nim is like writing C at the speed of Python, and running Python at the speed of C. If you took Python but made it perform blazingly fast, and made it suitable for the most demanding of embedded and systems programming applications, in addi

For a Python-like core language with an expressive type system that is simple, clean and immediately absorbable, you're really looking for Nim, not Go. The following produces a single binary with native code generation via compilation

I agree, shipping the dependencies in a single binary is the easiest way to package software. Nim is the same as Go in this respect: native code generation via compilation to C without a VM. And for me, Nim's Pythonic syntax is hands d

As another illustrative example, let's say we want to create a library for working with mathematical expressions such as x^2 + 5*x. It's natural to define our data types like this: type FormulaKind = enum fkVar
