A custom type is also a data structure and that is usually what I think quotes like these refer to.

I’m literally on the side of my chair waiting for part two. The first scientific article I’ve read that felt like a cliffhanger.

I’m curious how you actually would access this, would you need some kind of an RPC library to use in conjunction with it? The page doesn’t really seem to go far enough to answer actual usage information. What would be the alternative to usi

If only you could have really fast numerical computations that compete effectively against C++, it would be like the best of all the worlds.

I suppose I could just buy a TLD and register it for like a decade to avoid price hikes in the short term.

> Decreasing the aperture size on a lens increases the field of view. No, the aperture has no effect on the field of view. They are orthogonal features of how a lens works.

I never thought I’d write this, but we have officially entered a golden age for C++ JSON utils. They are everywhere, and springing up right and left. It is a great time to be alive.

Well, here's my reasoning why I'd happily pay Apple the price for the upgrades: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=24052506

I guess I’ll cast my contrarian vote to say I might start using this for a while as my first look at the HN front page. I like seeing snippets of the article before clicking through to read it. In fact, I like that idea so much, I think a s

That same clip has been going around for nearly a decade. Shame there’s little more to show for the software; I think that’s telling in its own right.

For example, the phrase goes back at least as far as Shakespeare.

Of course the phrase itself existed long before the documentary.

Looks to be missing quite a lot of offensive content from the searches I tried, things that bit me in the past.

I’m one of the wokest people I know and I really enjoy debating my non-woke friends, it’s very entertaining to me to watch them squirm under the pressure of my wit, which is like a forceful wall of the sea.

Ah, thanks for the clarification. That was indeed not obvious to me the way they worded it.

It’s only because I have a lot of respect for the Clojure language and ecosystem as a whole, but I often see non-Clojure developers or only hobbyists refer to the community as pretentious and get put off by that, so I like to call out those

The re-frame docs and "marketing" speak, like on its front github page, would do very well to remove a lot of the self-congratulatory tone, frankly. A lot of it reads like someone very impressed with themselves rather than text ab

I personally prefer reagent directly over re-frame. I've heard some Clojure developers express frustrations with the typical idioms that Re-frame promotes. I can see some value in how it organizes some things, but you can do the same t

Re-frame is a layer on top of reagent, which is an API for using React in cljs. If you want to use react, you can also just directly use reagent which is the preference of many in the community. The boilerplate and verbosity required for re
