Google does the same kind of software interviews as anywhere else. They aren't special. You code on a whiteboard and it's supposed to be compilable in C or Java. The process beyond that is just as subjective as anywhere else and i

But.. Socket.io is built in sooo realtime ... Right?

by notb 13y ago
Probably could be considered a competitor. This offers socket.io built-in, but doesn't seem to have the reactive data binding templates like meteor. This looks to be a Ruby on Rails for node.

There's a whole spectrum of users, as well. Programmers can be Python users, wherein the python implementation takes complexity hits to simplify it for the user. It's all subjective, and the design of the high level concepts (mayb

Seems like a disadvantage to me. It's mostly just confusing and the only thing it affords is the ability to use :keywords as functions (:like so) which is just sugar for property access, so["like"]. This is broken, though. The coolest thing

The work FOR us theme is present throughout. I'd guess it was intentional...

This has been my experience with recruiters but once you get past the wall of pleasantries and fake attitudes, they usually talk with more sense. Edit: Sibling comments are talking a lot about the author's personal motivating factors but ar

I think he's asking how it got so obfuscated in the first place. Seemingly, the spammers could just pilot a standard up to date client with a bot, rather than try and figure out the protocol. I'm sure it's more complicated than that however

The whole aesthetic seems wrong. The perfect circles and even lines seriously clash with the naturally drawn clefs. In the example music, they adopt a new font for the time signature to blend in better, I guess, but the clefs are still out

I don't understand these questions: “Is optimization of speed premature while productivity languishes?”; “Are semantic elegance and lexical simplicity just means by which to further our productive capacity?” The flowery language is confus

Its also a self fulfilling prophecy. When everyone colludes to start selling at the $200 mark, it will certainly burst.

Lexical scoping is a term to classify languages. The 'point' is to make it easier to understand how a language behaves. If you want to have var with the same name as something in an outer scope, there are ways to do it, specifically an IIFE

That article points out a design decision that the author disagrees with. It does not prove that CoffeeScript's scoping is broken.

Very good introduction to Lisp, as well.

Oh I see. Yes I was thinking of alpha-equivalence, sorry. Now I must ask, do you know any good papers/algos on that reduction? And how would you envision animating? It seems a bit like a lambda/var pair just fall off...
21.
by notb 14y ago
Agreed, it is unwieldy. However, because of it, eta-reduction is not as important because equivalent terms look the same, and name collisions can't happen. It made it a bit simpler. And, that is definitely a bug, thanks. I think I could sol

Right, thanks! Corrected.

by notb 14y ago
Yeah. I was trying to balance more common terms and descriptiveness. I honestly have no idea what a precise name would be. S-exps are actually a super set of these right?

by notb 14y ago
The source is kinda crude at this point, but I hope to eventually allow named abstractions as well as direct manipulation of the tree (click n drag). Supporting types might be interesting as well.

Spoiler alert: Ender commits xenocide just to prove his worth. Is that a win?

by notb 14y ago
I agree. Ultimately, he does all the things he does because the system is using him. Harry Potter is closer to a perverse ideal than Ender.

I dont think so... c() would be evaluated first which is inconsistent with the other examples Edit: I realize vemv's examples are inconsistent as well
