Gitlab's team is worldwide. YP seems to be someone in EU time, which right now is UTC+1. That would mean that the incident happened around 11pm or midnight in YP's local time.

The functionality was polished and sexy. The UI was clunky and the epitome of what happens when programmers design. Everything was jam packed into the screen so that it was immediately obvious what kinds of things you could do or how to go

I'm assuming Person is a record constructor, is isValid here a field in that record or another function?

by Scriptor 10y ago
That's because your code assumes those convenience functions exist while the parent's code writes out the anonymous functions. The direct translation of yours' to Clojure would be: (filter valid-person? (map init-person

The Mayan script used a similar approach where logograms could be complemented by phonetic elements.

I'm not a high-status authority and I was still able to connect emotionally to the human ones. Or, at the very least, each line contributed to a consistent mental picture or idea.

Yep, the human poems would often refer back to an idea or word mentioned before. The computer poems read like something from a good markov generator. Actually, you can kind of reverse engineer the algorithm behind Sonnet #2. It seems like t

Luckily for us, computers are slightly more sophisticated than drills and we can incorporate sane safety checks with relative ease. In this case people are just asking for an explicit flag in the rare situation when they do want to delete e

Everyone I know uses Messenger for group conversations. Anecdotes can go both ways. As far as I've been able to tell, WhatsApp is most popular outside of the US.

Agreed, the benefits of type safety are often thrown around but this is sort of what type safety looks like. Yes, as the author says it makes things "annoying to develop". This is because the developer now has to read the docs and

The author even anticipated your parent comment's argument and used Elm for this very reason. He seems to make it reasonably clear where Elm's approach is different from that of Cycle.js and still both are preferable to React&#x2F

True, although the harshness of Ice Age Europe varied over time. It wasn't some hellish landscape but a thriving ecosystem with all sorts of wildlife and other food sources. The difference is that Neanderthals had hundreds of thousands

They weren't ape-like idiots, but nonetheless newly arrived Homo Sapiens used noticeably more sophisticated tool-making techniques. This is one of the ways archaeologists are able to distinguish Neanderthal sites from, say, Cro-magnon

Looks like the story some time ago. Especially with emotionally charged stories like this, people always tend to misremember or warp the details and not realize they're doing so. I'm sure the general gist is right, but I always ge

It'd be easy enough to check for that by having a control where you interview people without using the extra storytelling-lie-detection methods.

Sensational title. The actual stone age was called such because humans were actively modifying and creating new stone tools.

Actually, HN lets you edit titles and URL's after they're already submitted. There might be limits on that, though. Check for an 'edit' link.

The URL is entered wrong. Remove the /# from the end and that should fix it.

Since C++ is also still used plenty throughout the world, I think he might've meant that it failed to live up to the expectations placed on it as a good balance of structural and functional.

Awesome! I'm going to try it out now.

This looks interesting and I have something I'd like to use it on, but the documentation could add a few things. How do I install this? How do I run a script?

Is there any way to restrict your app's environment beyond the default sandbox restrictions Google applies? For example, disabling things like urllib2.
