Seems quite interesting, just tried to go through the onboarding for my LLC but I see I need more than 75K in linked accounts, which I do not have :) Anyway, just applied!

Until we have just one datapoint from another civilization or planet (just one!) every single statement surrounding Fermi paradox stuff can't be proven, for example: - Life has to go through "hard steps" to get to civilizati

Writing a book about NFTs (IMO a fraud based market in the first place) with it being full of lies is, as the author said, hardly a crime. It's just unethical. Amazon isn't going to read every letter of every book that it sells, s

Yes, for now. But what will these models look like in something like 5-10 more years?

Don't you want the engineers who are language agnostic, and have seen many a many framework and can quickly learn any quirks from your existing team?

Every time I see anti framework posts I am forced to frusteratedly chime in. This mentality makes me fume... not all of us work on massive teams where building stuff without a framework is even an option. And even then, whats really a &quot

I agree that for bugs a simple list may be the most valuable or at least offer a good overview, but bugs are a world different from what is needed for feature planning / epics / sprints and so on.

The real problem is that any native developer is essentially slave to Apple or Google's requirements (or both!). Where or how did we go wrong with native development and applications? Its all owned (and thus gated) by these industrial

How are you going to manage interantionalization, testing, sessions, etc. with just these tools? (In before people say, "but that's all I need for my blog!" Fine. go ahead and do that then. I'm talking about internationa

I'm speaking from an application level perspective (REST or GraphQL APIs and the like). Of course at deeper levels of networking there needs to be a concept of state. But the only reason I can think of somebody having to hand roll anyt
435.
by fullstackchris 4y ago
Of course it does. The entire concept of 'state' doesn't even exist on the backend (okay, outside the concept of a user session, but then that barely adds any complexity; perhaps you use the user's ID and that's it)

Do you have an example? I've seen TypeScript handle crazy nested types (and generics) with ease.

I really _wish_ this were true, but go look at a vareity of "modern" React projects. React is so flexible that I've seen nightmare implementations of what could be reduced to just a few short lines. Then people turn around an

Yep. And your "reuse-in-the-large" I'd argue is also a side effect of reality itself. Take any market sector or industry, not just software - I suspect the "easyness" of directly reusing and copying any complex syst

> The move from testing to static analysis Are you claiming that static analysis of code can replace the concept of writing tests completely? If so, I'm very skeptical.

What language code is written in has little to do with how "flexible" it is. Or what did you mean? Refactorable? Readable? I don't immediately see what the choice of Python specifically has over other languages.

The northeast is pretty damn 'safe', as long as you can handle the occassional downed tree and subsequent power outage.

Armchairing here, but what exactly about Einstein's theory doesn't correspond with this so called "current cosmological model"? This article doesn't really state what, exactly, needs to be "revised". Becau
