When I learned Haskell in college I was blown away by how laziness enables cool things like dealing with infinite lists or more performance even though the UX is exactly the same. (Apparently with Ruby there is the slight hint of adding the

I have about 7 years of professional Laravel experience. I think it's quite slick! There is one aspect I haven't seen mentioned here that frustrates me: the community is quite eager to make new shiny things and forget about existi

I'm wondering: IS there a way to get to that video from the linked tweet without being logged in? I could not figure it out. Thank you for your service of providing the video.

I was curious about how an implementation for this would work and browsed the PR. Cool stuff, thanks for putting the effort in! I noticed a very tiny typo which doesn't affect behaviour I think. https://github.com/rust-

In Europe there are a few options which let you pay with your bank account without a credit card. I tried to look up all the things Wise supports, found part of the list: Trustly, Sofort, IDEAL IDEAL is huge in the Netherlands for example.

I find it quite odd and funny that the author specifically mentions Google, and his script has a function `def google_it(query):` but then in the function he uses DuckDuckGo. Is the author ashamed, or does he expect people to not trust DDG?

I agree with my sibling comments, but want to add that nowhere does TS imply it has it's own stdlib or anything. If you type map, you know fully it's the JS map that's going to be executed. I don't think TS ever wants or

Some people might not know this yet, the common idiom is to have the default value be None, and then start your function with checking if it's None and initializing to empty list.

This is very very similar to something developed by SIDN labs called "DNS Resolution Required", you can read the blog post here: https://www.sidnlabs.nl/en/news-and-blogs/dns-resolution-req...

Slightly offtopic: Why a git repo for a blog post? I guess there are some pro's: public history, PR's , but a blog has comments directly under the article for example. Forking is not expected. Ah well, extensive information anyway

These days Haskell proponents aren't as proud anymore on laziness. Simon Peyton Jones has actually admitted it was a mistake for it to be the default : https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=1924061 Nevertheless, it ha

In case you're worried this is outdated, note this is for version 10 of gcc (pdf is a pre-release) as stated on the frontpage of the document. I am curious how they plan to keep this updated, I could not easily find the repository for

My initial response to your comment was "but then the page requires JS", which of course is not true, since a simple inline form could POST and then a redirect could get you back. I'm no webdev, I think JS has been hyped so m

I applaud Microsoft for popularizing gradual typing , bringing types to the js world is an enormous task, both technical and (js-)societal. Regarding your syntax criticism: I quite agree. I really really like the path chosen by Haskell. Typ

Bravo to the people that can navigate such a complex (not an insult) architecture and pull useful information from it! I expect it to be quite tricky to get in between the production environment(s) and capture packets or change logging etc.

For those unaware: Haskell has a REPL (ghci), and you can make files more script-like with the (currently most popular) build tool stack[0] if you include: #!/usr/bin/env stack -- stack --resolver lts-6.25 script --pack

Looks nice and simple :) I think a strong example would really help your case, the landing page now has already formatted json, and I can't figure out where to get a messy example from quickly.

I enjoy removing technical debt, I can't image the satisfaction one would get from a commit like this: https://developer.blender.org/rB159806140fd33e6ddab951c0f6f1... Showing 876 changed files with 228 additions and 19

A prominent project where I have encountered this is GHC, the Haskell compiler. The route there goes: Haskell --> Core --> STG --> C-- (It then goes to one of: - Machine code generation - into C for feeding to gcc - into LLVM'

These reports are amazing, even though it's hardly understandable if you're not on the project. I recommend the Dolphin emulator blog as well. The last one: https://dolphin-emu.org/blog/2019/02/01&#x
