Is that 10-20 years number based on anything? I genuinely have no idea, but when I saw a video showing what's happening at the World Humanoid Robot Games[1], I realized I didn't have a good idea of where we really are with robotic

Ignoring the ironically missing way to respond to the post beyond the consult page, this is something I used to reliably do, for exactly this reason: > First, it’s positive and affirming in the aggregate. Despite its scale, the internet

What cases was it saying it was lying? An average and a median can be drastically different without the average being false, right?

While interesting, I get a few questions from this: - As another commenter said, this is a known disadvantage of averages. I'm curious if it's possible to get a median result from per-individual averages. I'm not familiar eno

Except it's not something you can really accurately assess before you start working somewhere.

Are you serious? This is the kind of thing you'd ask a clarifying question on and get information back immediately. Further, the huge overreaction from Hegseth shows this is a fundamental disagreement.

This reads as if it isn't trivial to have an HTTP API for your public API in Erlang/Elixir, which is weird. Sure there isn't an included HTTP API for Erlang processes, but why exactly would you want one? They're not for

It's a normal part of scaling because often bringing in the new technology introduces its own ways of causing the exact same problems. Often they're difficult to integrate into automated tests so folks mock them out, leading to is

Genuine question, as I've not invested much into understanding this. What features of the OS would enable these kinds of network restrictions? Basic googling/asking AI points me in the direction of things that seem a lot more diff

The main lib everyone uses, :ex_aws, has been actively maintained for literally over a decade[1]. Official or not, it's used by literally the entire community, since even non-AWS services often will support its API. 1. https:/&#x

I'm not a big fan of Go, and I think you could write this about nearly any language.

Config/settings management are often paired with things that require at the very least an app reboot, where Feature Flags are explicitly something that should be capable of changing at will. Now, could you have real-time config managem

I mean, this mechanism wouldn't make a server operator using entirely non-Google cert authorities more difficult to maintain. I'm pretty cynical on Google these days, but I don't see how this wouldn't be a boon to everyb

I understand, and what you shared is a perfect example of what I said- but I fundamentally disagree with the notion that it's the same between the two. I think that in effect, as you associate more behavior with a particular struct(as

If people get it wrong so regularly, what value is it providing as a concept? These concepts are supposed to help us reach something better, if you have to add 30 caveats to every part of it, all it did was hide its own complexity from you,

I'd ask what you mean by "fighting the browser"- as generally, the number one way to ruin the performance of your CSS is to introduce depth to it. In general, keeping everything isolated regularly leads to better rendering pe

I'd be ready to agree if I could be pointed at a time that inheritance actually carries a real benefit- a time you would choose it over composition, if composition is available.

Nothing that large admittedly- but I have gotten near the 1 million mark(prolly ~800k?) in one project. But I'd also say that at that size(honestly these days, I reach for it pretty much by default) I'd go toward a monorepo that o

While I certainly agree, I've found that this is often an indication of too-complex an architecture, and a fundamental re-think being necessary. I've had projects that depend on [fp-ts], which end up incredibly generic-heavy, but

There is actually efforts in the Typescript community attempting to do just that. Personally I think it'll end up being a waste, but these sorts of experiments, even when they fail, often can help along new discoveries. And on the off-

I mean, all types are "entirely fictitious" as far as the computer is concerned. Yeah they usually have fewer layers than JS does, but that's a pretty arbitrary line to draw.

Curious what your issue was with duck-typing. Were you effectively looking to create ADTs that are required to go through a specific step-by-step process, not simply 'look like' the thing that was expected? If so, you might be int

by quaunaut 2y ago
This isn't typical application code, but either proof-of-concept or library code. What you'd instead get is the type error, which in turn would explain itself well enough- that it expected a certain type, and got a different type.

Go's type system is inferior to Typescript's in every possible way. About the only saving grace it has is that it didn't start out in a non-typesafe ecosystem, but most of those issues have been alleviated in Typescript for
