The trick I find is to type very softly, then its an amazing wonderful experience. I haven’t used my MB keyboard for a while so when I went back it felt very jarring because I lost my soft touch. Have to retrain myself

I find this fascinating and am a big supporter of FSF and GNU. All that said, I am not an expert so would like to learn more. Can somebody let me know why one cannot just take the assembly version of an existing compiler and carefully revie

That’s a fantastic story to hear :)

I agree 100% with this article - I do my best thinking when walking. It is the combination of light exercise that gets the blood moving (to the brain!), but not too strenuous that our minds must devote mental energy to the act of phsyical e

I understand your perspective. However the solution is for those native to East Asia to post, not non natives to post less. I agree that more viewpoints is better, just wanted to point that

I agree with most of what you say, but I thought most of the usage was now on the mobile app? By most, I mean the vast majority (hence my perplexion and need to comment and confirm my understanding)

It’s just a goto with state…

How about Scheme (try the book SICP if you haven’t already), or Common Lisp? I’m sure there are other good options too. Racket comes to mind but I haven’t tried that

by math-dev 5y ago
Indeed, the number of newcomers to Lisp is quite high in recent years and with QuickLisp it is a fantastic development platform

Lisp is live and well and growing in user base everyday. Lots of activity in Reddit and on IRC

I thought Apple had a patent on this technology, interesting to see others do it

This resonated with me. I frequently get caught up in tunnel vision and miss the forest from the trees. And then the worlds moved on and I unintentionally spent too much time on the wrong activities. Its happened enough times that I’m confi

That’s great to hear - thanks for the insight. And kudos again on a great project, definitely not easy to get all this functionality!

Congrats! I write calculators myself from time to time, but this sounds very impressive :) How was your experience using webassembly? Any good guides that helped you with that part?

That’s by far the worst. Something bad happens to their family and they make a post about it! I have seen examples too terrible to post as a comment (assume something very bad happened and the next day theres a post on jt)

I like your analogy to GitHub, and can appreciate / change my original viewpoint as a result to the channels aren’t the property of FN, so they don’t have a right on what to do with them

In theory I agree, but imagine if you were running a large community and your number 2 just took it all away from you. I would pretty upset, even if in theory I should support all FOSS projects. Not to say this is the same situation here as

by math-dev 5y ago
(Correct if my assumption is mistaken, I’m not 100% sure) If a channel is actively posting to migrate to another network, that isn’t appropriate. It’s like all facebook groups posting “Hey lets move to twitter now”. At the end of the day, t

Meh, something smells _funny_ about all this. I still don’t know what in particular Freenode did wrong, looks like it was a group of admins/volunteers who just wanted to have control over the network that they have dedicated many hours

Core Data is a persistent storage facility so can be handled either in Swift or SwiftUI. I wrote a reasonably valued answer on controlling animations in SwiftUI on SO, so I was happy to push the boundaries there: https://stackove

I will let others more qualified opine, but for me it was quite easy to use. I think Android has Kotlin, and imo Swift & Kotlin are not too different, which makes it easier for someone trying to build across two different platforms. I l

The documentation of SwiftUI is poor but I was able to create mostly what I wanted from it, this was a year or so ago. I released a SwiftUI calculator I built earlier as open source on GitHub, it may be useful for some dipping their toes in

Yeah basically Apple funnels you into their vision and WWDC is a great predictor of the future changes in the apps on the platform. Its part of the appeal of Apple’s ecosystem - the very high level of standardisation, although it obviously

Yes but for the single programmer working by himself or herself, its much more palatable to build an app for iOS / MacOS and monetize from it. I believe that is the direction of the parent comment that I replied to. Many things run on
