I have spent a lot of time in the PL space and I just cannot wrap my head around the love of Racket. I absolutely love the innovation that comes out of the community though! The gradual types system work, nanopass, embeddable DSLs are all f

This depends on how you define ROI. Car infrastructure and lack of density reduces tax revenue for cities and strains infrastructure. There are other human benefits to reducing car traffic and use in favor of public transportation: * Reduce

Unless you are actively managing your own herd or actively hunting I don’t see how you are connecting to nature at the grocery store. People don’t care as long as it tastes good. The current methods we have for farming meat do not scale and

I always love seeing more done in the web component space. I think Lit has the no build process captured pretty well and they include things such as a router. I do prefer the style of of your components more, where you separate out the scri

I'm curious what you prefer instead? I find that tools like Mermaid are pretty invaluable, especially when editing very large processes. Draw.io diagrams tend to get pretty unwieldy as they scale and editing inter process stuff if you

I have seen this thrown around a lot, but I do not think it is true anymore. V lang had a rough launch from what I can tell, with the author overselling and mistakenly underestimating the amount of work needed to fulfill their vision. V sti

I know this is a few days at this point but Bolero has been in active development. All development work was done on the now deleted streamrendering and v0.24 branches. Version 0.24 was just published today: https://github.com&#x2

If it allows for alternative design patterns that are simpler then I think it's a win in the end. For example pattern matching is great when writer parsers as an alternative to going the visitor pattern route. Pattern matching has fina

I have been dabbling with F# for scripts as well. The F# REPL (FSI) and .fsx files make it really easy to hammer something out and share.

I also found Superset unintuitive to use and setup as well. I settled on standing up Metabase because it was so simple to get started with trying it since it can be launched as a single jar. The business users loved it and so did I and admi

I started evaluating Defold this past weekend and I have been very impressed. The developer experience is very similar to Godot, especially if you work on your scripts with external editors. Everything that has to do with building and runni

I don't really think anyone is copying anyone here. This is a popular feature for browsers that has been around for over a decade. Orion[1] is another recent MacOS browser that released before Arc in 2021 and has vertical tabs. Edge ha

I guess it depends on how much bulk you are buying at once, but most bikes are compatible with a basket of some kind. A bike trailer could also be an option. In the Netherlands you'll see Bakfiets/cargo bikes. https://

You may be confusing MiniLED and MicroLED. MiniLED still uses an LCD with multiple backlights and local dimming algorithms to improve contrast. MiniLED is pretty impressive and the quality of it is generally 1-to-1 with the number of back

I really love Haxe. A truly multi-paradigm language with good support for GADTs, OOP, structural and nominal types, lambdas, and a lot of practical sugar on top. The macro system and abstract types add enormous flexibility that I miss when

People do not need to be productive 100% of the time. Let people have fun without shaming them. Just think of how far science and technology has come in the last decade.

Some neat info on the performance side of things, Fleet is using Skija[1] and Compose[2] as a rendering engine and UI framework. Skija is a java wrapper for Skia and still does not support the full API. Compose is still relatively new and h

You cannot buy one outright currently, but you can still reserve one on Steam and from the looks of it you'll most likely get it by December. The steam deck is pretty incredible and I have greatly enjoyed tinkering with it. https:&#x2
