What do you mean that JSON is not "streamable"? There are things like https://www.baeldung.com/jackson-streaming-api but maybe there's more in you definition of "streamable" that JSON doesn't s

Unlikely. The digital signatures bitcoin uses are regarded as secure, (there could be attacks if we get quantum computers.) The issue here was the software didn't put in enough randomness when generating the keys, and so it was straigh

JSON String requires escaping of control characters. .toString() on a String is (hopefully) the identity.

So, maybe we could consider a "White Hat" ransomware group that takes the money and also leaks the data, so that long term no one bothers to pay which ultimately disincentivizes ransomware attacks?

Somewhat off topic, but I've always wanted to know _who_ gets my tax dollars more than what they were spent on. For example, a middle class salary to someone building bombs in Ohio is different than a wealthy investor who owns shares i

I'm not sure I follow your workflow exactly. If PR B is merged, then I'd expect PR A to already be merged (I'd normally branch off of A to make B.) That said, after the squash merge of A and git fetch origin, you want somethi

It helps if you click the link of the operator(s) under TinyAPL. For example Blackbird goes to https://tinyapl.rubenverg.com/docs/primitive/atop Which seems to be function composition and some extra rules about if

Reminds me of this quote which I recently found and like: > look, I'm sorry, but the rule is simple: if you made something 2x faster, you might have done something smart if you made something 100x faster, you definitely just stopped

Yes, I really wanted to post the comment and I (wrongly) thought this post got blocked by my procrastination setting. Apologies for the noise.

I happen to just stumble across this article https://felixbarbalet.com/simple-made-inevitable-the-economi... extolling the virtues of Clojure. It specifically calls out Go for not being simple in the ways that matter for LL

This is interesting to think about: For gold I'd say the demand is coming from both industries and from people who want it as a store of value. If it was only used as an industrial chemical, then surely the price would drop because the

I'd be good to give an example of where the 'only if' doesn't apply. If only to clear up the confusion.

of course 9.99...(repeating) is mathematically 10, so I have a hard time being against allowing that.

I think I might be missing something basic, but if you actually wanted to do a Fourier transform on the sound hitting your ear, wouldn't you need to wait your entire lifetime to compute it? It seems pretty clear that's not what is

I agree. Ideally we could just increase the tax credits so it's large enough to cover the childcare expenses (and other necessities), and let the families decide what is best. And yes, some people are going to do a bad job taking care

One thought I had recently: Their shareholders are probably mostly the same people. So why even compete?

Just a thought: Make the velocity of the path constant. There should be some way to take a derivative an set it to a constant and solve for z. ( or really reparameterize the curve t' = f(t)) so the velocity is constant. Actually, now t

I happen to also have thought about this. Effects would listen to the global state and if needed do their side effect and update the state. As a type it's just State -> State, with an implicit side effect. As an example: Say the use

I've been toying with an idea of a pattern. I'm curious as to if it has a name. I'll write a blog post once I have an app using it. In the meantime, it's (roughly): - No Hooks. - Don't try to sync any state. E

In the past, I had always had a distaste for 'stringy' data, always preferring more structure (e.g objects). Once I learned about parsers, I realized you can still have structure in a string.

It depends on what you need to do. If you just need to say when something happened (e.g. some log event) then milliseconds since the epoch is fine. If want a user to schedule a reoccurring meeting at 8am on the first Thursday of every month

Not gp, but as an example of what they mean: take a photo at 70mm then at 120mm. You can crop the first photo to be have the same composition as the second, but the resolution will be lower.
