I don't think it's cynical to think of pharma companies wanting addicted customers - where else would they get a constant source of revenue? Making everyone healthy... will not be 100% good for their revenue... but I think they we

I'll jump to flutter when 1). scala supports dart backend (just my preference) 2). flutter solves 'calling native libraries/sdks' better. (current 'message passing' seems so weak - I want to do video processing

+1 on this. I'm going for Preact ( https://github.com/developit/preact ) for React alternative.

There's F# and then there's "F* " language that seem to have higher-kinded types (I really mean F* as in 'F-star' language)

that can be mitigated with IDEs showing marks on implicit uses, with mouse-over-to-peek-definition features (hope this lands on intelliJ... and hopefully a free license for me lol)

I don't think Airbnb's management is intentionally ignoring the law -- rather, it's just that AirBnb got too big to look at its toes... should definitely work on improving internal communications, and penalizing those custome
