So glad to see him articulate what I've always felt about x-exprs. It often gets overlooked because we all understandably want to hype something in a language that's really cool, original, abstract or otherwise reflects well on us

So, I just started learning Haskell and I learned a bit of Standard ML in the past. I was/am expecting Haskell to be broadly similar to ML - what's the main way the two languages differ? edit: never mind, from the reddit discussio

That's true, but on Wikipedia they do. Especially for cases like that - if someone has more 'sway' on Wikipedia than you, they can (and will often) just say something like "Thanks for the source - I'll verify and if

Theoretically 6 & 7 should be a big red flag (the biggest possible UX red flag) to Google regarding the specific Quora page visited - I know that I almost never see Quora results in search, for example. Following Bartosz Goralewicz&#x27

It began with 'C', I don't like to use or even mention it when there may be Americans present, and it was plural... I never said it was a particularly clever review. Although it did seem heartfelt.

I don't personally think that is a hatchet job - the quote seems harsh, but it's not the full extent of the review. > The sublime moments come when Donen calms down and concentrates on melody. That's a pretty glowing quote

What's wrong with writing JSON by hand? I've never touched YAML before, but JSON seems pretty clear to me - doesn't feel much different to writing a list naturally. Is YAML one of those things that proper professional program

I agree. Game dev is a very different way to learn to code, and one that's more accessible when you don't have specific guidance. If you just want to do indie game dev, it's great, but it doesn't transfer and it teaches

It did make me do a double-take the first time I found out that Chthonic's blood-soaked bassist was called Doris. Taiwanese band, not Chinese, but this particular cultural quirk does seem to carry over. There's a Freddy, Zac and o

Just commenting about Facebook ads, the rest is pretty accurate in my experience - On FB, that's the remarketing side, and it's a lot more manual. Generally the goals and data will be selected by the advertiser themselves. It work

Have you tried uPlay? It's genuinely worse than Origin in just about every way.

Looking at Steam, there's a huge undercurrent of games that don't get pushed, don't appeal to the hardcore, but that - in aggregate - sell a very noticeable amount. Hidden object games, educational games for children, iOS a

On What Matters by Derek Parfit. Happened to be vol. 1, but vol. 2 is also fantastic. Honestly, Reasons & Persons would also make a fine gift.

I guess that makes sense actually, I think I only even ran into an issue where bytecode was actually relevant because I'm just a hobbyist programmer. So I like to explore things that have only marginal utility and don't have anyon

This line also stood out to me: > [Oracle]: even Java programmers don't learn about Java bytecode. Uh, what? I'd hardly call myself a dedicated Java programmer and I've learned about Java bytecode. I had to, and wanted t

I agree. I also think that dog breeding should be illegal, though, which is a much less popular stance.

My fairly crude theory is that those sites have slightly broader and thus less tech-savvy userbases, so searches might represent ingrained ways of accessing the site more than they would for Reddit or Tumblr. As even the least-tech-savvy be

This is partly why there have been rival Ebola-like 'haemorrhagic plague' theories of the Black Death, although they're still niche theories. Confusing matters is the fact that some accounts of symptoms make it sound like Pne

I think that exposing and styling some of the hidden elements - <script> or <noscript> or <meta> or <link> or whatever - would also be in keeping with the ethos. Unless that's what you meant and I'm just re
