Not exactly Clojure-related, but I wonder how acceptable is it for a programmer to suggest a technical decision by one’s own passion over company’s interest. > The business case for Go is very strong now. Sh*t. It sounded like a negative

I have to echo your point on inconsistency. Our company uses Haskell and the Haskell team love to define their own solutions which make things even more inconstant. For error handling they end up using an extensible type-level-list containi

I got into my school's network when I was 10, people were furious for my hacking, nobody questioned why was there a security issue so obvious that even a 10-years-old could break in. Few years later I accidentally found another way to

I see a lot of people making the argument of “a bigger car is safer when crashing with other cars”, but that’s not very sustainable when everybody thinks the same. A US truck is small when everyone is driving a monster truck to protect them

As far as I know, there isn't a limit of power / speed for kei car category. In the old days Suzuki made a kei car that was "too powerful", the government "communicated" with them, and they settled with 64hps.

I live in Tokyo and drive an old kei car. Despite being not very powerful, it does provide me whatever I need. Driving it on highway (about 100km/h) feels alright, of course it’s not as quiet or comfortable as bigger cars, but not una

I bought a pro mouse 2 years ago and used it until few months ago. The biggest reason for giving up this nice looking thing is that, people no longer create UI that are one-button-friendly, especially when it comes to scrolling.

If this turns out to be an effective lesson on security, systems should implement their own meow to protect their users. E.g. A database That intentionally removes itself if the default password/an insecure password is used, with an ea

While I agree that many things can be simplified into functions, I would like to point out functional languages don't necessary means you are going to have cleaner code automatically. I write Haskell for a company that it seems people

Few years ago I spent quite some time learning Haskell, failing to understand the concept of Monad. One day I just woke up, with the concept understood. It was like magic.

Me too! Especially when we know most services will eventually die, no matter it's Google+ or any trendy startup that will be acquired at some point.

Years ago a company similarly contacted me for some "emergency" tasks. I flied all the way to Japan and realise they haven't got the tasks ready, more than half of the time I wasn't doing anything. I honestly (stupidly?)

Interesting. I thought the Ruby community generally prefers shorter code, e.g. `to_s` instead of `to_string`, and yet that type signature is very verbose: `sig {params(x: Integer).returns(String)}`

You are right, but I don't think companies care about accessibility. Facebook using the divs is already breaking screen reader.

I read it somewhere that Chinese websites are taking this kind of obfuscations to the next level. The simple ones are randomly ordered divs re-layouted by JS at runtime. The complicated ones include custom font files which characters and gl

The article and all the comments seem to assume work and creative projects are mutual exclusive, that we have to find a balance. I am wondering if it is possible to have a job that allows people to be creative? Like, as happy as doing side

I think culture helps to keep the house price low as well. 1. They don't like secondhand homes, they rather rebuild it[1]. So houses are not a good investment vehicles. 2. They values good business practices in housing. (I don't h

I see it the other way round. The people and community who chose electron at this point probably don't care about performance as much as we do. Improving performance would probably make us (people who care about performance, capable of

I think it absolutely makes sense in business, making low quality product is fine especially when users are nontechnical, they just don't know which app is slow. Though as a developer, I cannot be proud of myself for making low quality

If I have to choose a language for programming, I would suggest Esperanto. An artificial language that is easy to learn, and more consistent than English.

I wonder how does it compare with Purescript + Pux. My experience with Pux has been pretty good. As a beginner, I find it more comfortable when the FFI is thin, the compiled JS is kind of readable, so in case if I am stuck, I can still go b

I've worked with companies making apps with electron/nw.js, what strike me most was not the performance or the product itself, but the reason they decided to use electron. The argument is always about development efficiency, while

I do. But it doesn't happen very often, and I don't hate it. The clearest memory I have, is when I was 15, debugging some hacky PHP codes for days still unable to find a solution. I dreamed that piece of code and suddenly wake up
