OCaml programmers, what learning resource would you recommend starting out with? I know there's https://cs3110.github.io/textbook/chapters/basics/intro.html . How does this book compare? Anything else you

Oh, that's cool. And that's exactly the kind of answer I was looking for. So thanks a lot!

This is the world we live in now. 3-4 megacorps owning everything in every major product category - eyewear, cosmetic, consumer goods, media, tech; you name it.

Thanks, I gathered that much. I am curious what kind of stuff people are using it for, especially in their personal projects.

People using DuckDB, what's your use case? I use sqlite for a lot of my personal projects. What's a good use case for using DuckDB?

I don't think it's childish to dislike verbosity in a language. Readability is important. There is a reason why there are so many programming languages that compile to Go: https://github.com/ubavic/compiles-to

It's the ugly as hell part that gets me.

I don't have a problem with the error handling per say, but it's the verbosity, yes.

I really want to like Go, but I can't stand looking at Go code. The error handling is such a turn off.

It's better for VRAM poor people. I get 4-5 t/s with 27B and 20-30 t/s with 35B A3B.

For starters, strudel runs in the browser while Sonic Pi is a stand alone application.

Congrats on the new release. Anything that creates more competition in the browser space has my support. I was hyped about Ladybird but their recent adoption of LLMs and going source-available only has put a bit of a dent in it.

It used to be the case that seeing cool Show HN projects would get me excited. Ever since the advent of agentic coding, that has been completely lost for me. 9/10 times now they are just claude produced slop with a 3 day long commit hi

Roc seems interesting. But for some reason I find it very grating to have the type definition on a separate line. Very much prefer F# syntax for that.

Somehow all the countries are suddenly proposing the same thing. You'd think at least one of these countries might try something different if they actually cared about the kids, like banning algorithmic feeds. Not suspicious at all.

Arguing about whether this is good or effective for kids or not is irrelevant. This isn't about kids at all. It's about surveillance.

This points get brought up in every thread about this topic, and although I agree with it completely, I feel it's the wrong point to make. They don't want to raise our children. Caring about the children is just pretense. The goal

Sorry, I am not going to use and get attached to a code editor that is VC funded. You know the enshittification will happen sooner or later.

If you have worked at Mozilla then clearly you are going to have a better understanding of the company than I do. But my perspective, and I believe of many others from the outside looking in, is that the company is mismanaged, focusing on t

How did you come to the conclusion that it's not? Google being bloated is not a good justification for why Mozilla should be bloated too. Someone in the comment below suggested that Ladybird was built by about 10 people. Call me naive,
