There's no existing solution for this for those that want to work with .NET and the other established technologies that I've seen don't have as good as a component model as Razor Components. But again, this is mainly for existing .NET developers.

Long term yes, short term no. If you want to deliver 1.0 ASAP with no regards for future costs you will skip pretty much everything i mentioned, especially if the spec isn't airtight and you can get away with some errors.
As for the rest, some might be skippable without catastrophy in a select few applications, but most are needed in most applications long term - I hope you can see past minor details and see my larger point. If the system you need has no security need, is going to have like 5 users and only work offline and no advanced logic you can probably get away with buying the cheapest shit you can find.
> Also, there is a big difference between intentionally valuing simplicity and being lazy.
I didn't mean any of these, firms that skimp on delivery to save cash will value speed over anything else.

False | justinmeiners | t2_pjfia | The actual instruction function that is generated in C++ should be identical to the C one, the difference in performance would come from using a table of function pointers instead of a goto.

False | VincentPepper | t2_dwxl7 | The particular problem sounds like something solveable by profile guided optimisation.

False | inu-no-policemen | t2_yh2ls | Okay. For Dart that would be source code JIT, (sort of) bytecode JIT, and AOT. There was also an interpreter at some point. All of these were official implementations by Google.
And JavaScript started being interpreted and then many years later there was some JIT and V8 didn't have an interpreter stage until recently and then these engines do also Asm.js and Wasm stuff.
Ugh.
Yea, very convenient.
Another problem is that this distinction doesn't really tell you much. AOT compiled code can be slower than JIT compiled code. And startup with JIT can be perfectly fine if there is an interpreter stage.
And the final problem is of course that it's usually wrong. People like to call JS an interpreted language.

There are two fairly unrelated uses of "virtual machine". One is what you describe — hardware level virtualization. It's what containers like Docker do. The goal is not to abstract away the chip, but to insulate the OS.
The other is what this article describes — a software-level implementation of some chip, either real or imaginary. The latter is a valid use of the term. The Java Virtual Machine doesn't require running on a real "Java chip", but it's still a virtual machine. | null | 0 | 1544799487 | False | 0 | ebrx87q | t3_a61to1 | null | null | t1_ebrfwl8 | /r/programming/comments/a61to1/write_your_own_virtual_machine/ebrx87q/ | 1547600344 | 20 | t5_2fwo | r/programming | public | null |

I guess there's two major definitions of a VM, ones like JVM which defines an abstract machine and builds it, which well is what you've done the article, and ones like VirtualBox that virtualise hardware.
I guess the bigger difference is that the platform doesn't exist in the first place, so you'd still call it a virtual machine.
Funnily enough I brought this argument up to a friend of mine and he brought in an interesting aspect, what would you call say an emulator for one of these abstract platforms such as CHIP-8 or LC-3 if they were running on an FPGA.

Diversity of experience in terms of skills and outlooks, so two straight/gay white/brown tall/short men/women with different backgrounds and experience will have different perspectives.

Either diversity of sex brings some benefits (I think so) and we should also be able to accept differences in overall numbers or we are identical, there are no benefits to diversity and all differences in outcome are down to social conditioning and discrimination.

It's like when I often have to explain to people that "blocking at the speed of light" doesn't get anyone anywhere. So if the problem is "embarrassingly parallel" and they can't figure out how to write a correct parallel code solution in C, then it won't magically be faster just because it's written in C, no matter how "efficient" it is. Efficiently doing no work is not progress. Another language that is normally slower but makes it possible for programmers of their experience level and education to write highly parallel code will often win in these cases since it isn't wasting time blocking. Maybe someone else can write faster equivalent C or assembly, but if you're the one writing it, it's a moot point. | null | 0 | 1544799909 | False | 0 | ebry7c6 | t3_a61to1 | null | null | t1_ebrkdmv | /r/programming/comments/a61to1/write_your_own_virtual_machine/ebry7c6/ | 1547600804 | 19 | t5_2fwo | r/programming | public | null |

Efficiency is a prerequisite for all of the above. If you waste all your time on busywork (and you do, even if you don't want to admit it) instead of automating it all, everything else is beyond your reach.
> I have very broad knowledge of how tons of different software packages can be installed and configured on a specific system or set of systems for a given application/task and how they connect together in terms of system architecture, how to setup and operate CI/CD pipelines, and how to use all of the above to deploy applications for which I typically write plumbing code (middleware, error handling and reporting, tracking/monitoring, that sort of stuff) and assist with higher level SwEng stuff (architecture, refactoring, etc.).
Yes, I was always laughing at you devops types for this. This kind of stuff that we, normal developers, do with expert systems and constraint solvers in no time, you're sweating out manually. If your goal is to look busy - then fine, keep doing it, but if you want to finish your work quickly and go home - than you're evidently doing it all wrong.
If Cucumber was the best thing you devops could come up with, I really pity you.

How many times shall I repeat the obvious: the more DSLs you use, the *lower* your cognitive overload is. That's the very reason to use DSLs - to reduce complexity and cognitive load. That's the way human minds work - we always construct *languages* to hide away complexity.

And this is a good example of insanity. No, you cannot enforce discipline any other way. Either you do it on *semantics* level, or you fuck it up in runtime. No other ways, at least, no other ways discovered so far.

Nope. I'd rather stay away from anything that reeks of the web shit. I have zero interest in even thinking about web, not just discussing it. I can give examples from the areas that matter (i.e., not web) - CAD/CAE, HPC, hardware design, software-hardware co-design, OS, real-time networking, signal processing, embedded, finance and so on. Leave the stinky web crap to the special school dropouts.
> That's not IDE support. That's VIM's default settings (almost, you need ctags for JTD).
You have some DSL, which is a source for some Go (or whatever) code generated by a text processing tool. How the fuck you'll get a support for all of the above in Vim or whatever other IDE, without *implementing* all this shit on your own?
> And yes, all of those are supported for the generated code because it is just plain go code. It is part of the repository, as I said. Actual files on disk.
I do not care about the generated boilerplate shit. I do not want to read it (unless I fucked up really majestically, and have to debug the code generation process itself). I want to read the *source* that was used to generate all that code.
E.g., if it's a parser, I want to read BNF. If it's some ORM boilerplate, I want to read the database schema. If it's a rule engine, I do not want to see those shitty `if` ladders - I want to read the rules.
And when this code is running, I want the debugger to point me to the actual source, not the generated intermediate shit, which, as I said above, I do not want to see, I do not want to think about it, I do not want to waste a second of my time with it - I want to finish my work quickly and go home. All the tooling help me with doing things with as little cognitive load as possible - debuggers included.
> Debuggers are a different story. "In devop we are not believe in debugger, we are propose TDD... and print_r(); die();"
It's getting more and more hilarious. All the hipstor crap like docker and kubernetes first, now TDD and unit tests. You're evidently not interested at all in getting things done as quickly and simply as possible, you just want to look busy.
> For small projects, I agree though, integration testing is sufficient for validation.
Unit testing in general and TDD in particular are absolutely useless (and often harmful) for most of the projects, regardless of their size.
> Not with proper use of encapsulation (in an OO environment) or locality (in procedural style). I get the feeling that you think Go is just C with a garbage collector bolted on. Not exactly the case.
It'd be hilarious to see how you're debugging a horrible `if` ladder in your dumb pitiful Go, when in fact the underlying logic is just a couple of dozen of rules that won't take more than a hundred lines of code in any decent expert system.
> I'll try to lower my cognitive load instead so that I can perform better without burning out.
You have no faintest idea of what you're talking about. DSLs are the *only* way known to our civilisation that allows to massively reduce your cognitive load.
> For people who use go, it provides an adequate level of abstraction for the type of work being done.
No, it does not, and you know it.
Go is never an adequate level of abstraction. Your problem domains do not even have such terms as "function", "variable", "data type", "for loop" and so on, all those dumb primitive constructs you're operating with when you're dealing with Go code. None of the stuff you described above can be adequately expressed in such terms. It must be expressed as rules, patterns and strategies, for example.

It cannot be *efficiently* implemented - you still must look up a variable (by name, or by some hash, does not matter) in a sequence of environments. No way you can map it to a register or allocate a slot in a stack frame for it.
> Virtual method dispatch in C++ is determined at run time
It's just one dereference. Unlike a table lookup, which is far more expensive.
True, virtual calls are more on a "dynamic" side of language features, but not too dynamic when you compare it to the Python or Javascript method call semantics. | null | 0 | 1544800435 | False | 0 | ebrzf8g | t3_a60dlr | null | null | t1_ebrymhk | /r/programming/comments/a60dlr/the_difference_between_interpreted_languages_and/ebrzf8g/ | 1547601398 | 7 | t5_2fwo | r/programming | public | null |

False | dinkandenza | t2_125f8l7u | Hi @ivquatch. I've been using typeclasses and instances quite heavily in JS, and haven't experienced the need to monkey patch anything yet. In fact, IMO JS is actually uniquely well suited to the challenge of equipping existing data with new behavior, without any modification or monkey patching.
The bags of functions that typeclass instances in other languages eventually desugar to are quite convenient to work with directly in JS. Here's an example:
```
// :: type Monoid m = { empty: m, append: m -> m -> m }
// Some useful monoids
// :: Monoid Number
const Sum = { empty: 0, append: x => y => x + y };
// :: Monoid Number
const Product = { empty: 1, append: x => y => x * y };
// :: Monoid Number
const Min = { empty: Infinity, append: x => y => Math.min(x, y) };
// :: Monoid Number
const Max = { empty: -Infinity, append: x => y => Math.max(x, y) };
const Arr = (() => {
// :: Monoid m -> (a -> m) -> [a] -> m
const foldMap = M => f => xs =>
xs.reduce((p, c) => M.append(p)(f(c)), M.empty);
// :: Monoid m -> [m] -> m
const fold = M => foldMap(M)(x => x);
return { foldMap, fold };
})();
const input = [1, 2, 3, 4, 5];
console.log([
Arr.fold(Sum)(input),
// => 15
Arr.fold(Product)(input),
// => 120
Arr.fold(Min)(input),
// => 1
Arr.fold(Max)(input)
// => 5
]);
```
This doesn't have any dependencies, and I'd be quite comfortable pasting something like this into a util.js file without worrying too much that an average JS developer will find it impossible to decipher the black magic underlying its workings.
The unfamiliar jargon of course is somewhat offputting, which is a valid criticism. I suggest however that this is true of any new and unfamiliar design pattern to some extent. | null | 0 | 1543670839 | 1543671047 | 0 | eauox9c | t3_a1lebc | null | null | t1_eaubpw9 | /r/programming/comments/a1lebc/actually_callbacks_are_fine_implementing_monads/eauox9c/ | 1546276418 | 1 | t5_2fwo | r/programming | public | null |

False | combinatorylogic | t2_iab4d | > I think it actually encompasses most of the things that are wrong with "minimalist approach" -- which is, the fact that all "minimalist approach" systems are unusable in real life.
They never had a goal of making something "usable". If they did, it'd be, probably, an order of magnitude bigger, no more than that.
Remember, they had a very limited hardware to start with, to keep it accessible on low cost FPGA boards (I even managed to port it to iCE40-8k with 512Kb SRAM).
> It has no journaling of any sort
You know, there is a very simple way to implement a perfect journaling, along with snapshots and rollback. Have you ever seen DEC Spiralog? I'm still puzzled why this approach was never used afterwards. And it's absolutely trivial to implement. Actually, thanks for reminding about it, I'm going to try building a Spiralog-like FS, just for fun...
> The disk cache is rudimentary
Do not forget about the very limited hardware. There's even no DDR, and you won't get too much SRAM - go to mouser or digikey and have a look at the prices.
> One can certainly fix all the things above, but then the complexity increases
Nope. Complexity does not increase too much - Minix is a good case in point here. What does increase though is hardware requirements.
One of the specialities of mine is building bespoke hardware compute accelerators, which often involve constructing a cut down software layer for them (won't call it an OS, but it might have quite a lot of OS-like features). And all of it is hilariously simple, when you do it the right way.
> And the most telling thing, I think, it that Project Oberon reports are written in Microsoft Word.
You won't do much on a computer with 1Mb RAM, most of which is used for a framebuffer. Regardless of the quality of software running on it. That's way too low a spec even for TeX.
> Well, it is easy to get rid of if you create your own Linux system.
Nope. I won't get the functionality I want with Linux, its fundamental architecture is at odds with what I need (e.g., hard real-time).
> Use bitmapped fonts, like Project Oberon does.
A ttf rasteriser is in fact a very simple thing. Have a look at the older versions of FreeType (those still written in Pascal).
> Just don't look into source code of some Arduino libraries -- it will make you want to throw up
Maybe that's why I never had a reason to use any of them. Why would you, when it's so simple to drive, say, a stepper, or bit-bang a VGA? Just use the right level of abstraction (as declarative as possible) instead of crapping out all that boilerplate code.
> If you change jobs / your home computer gets destroyed, and you have to start from scratch, would you be willing to spend weeks writing math and plotting libraries?
My point is that this entire industry was doing things the wrong way and should start from scratch instead. Of course I do not advocate for everyone to build shit on their own - we need a common pool of *simple* things.
Unikernels is a very good start in this regard. Let's see where they'll go.

False | kevindqc | t2_3zk1y | Hmm that's not how I read it, here's my interpretation:
They don't support minor versions (ie: 3.3.5) when newer minor versions come out (ie: 3.3.7). Makes sense - it should be fully backward compatible, so why make a [3.3.5.1](https://3.3.5.1) or something like that.
They say they aren't actively developing bootstrap 3 because of bootstrap 4 - to me that means no new features, mostly just bug/security fixes if needed. Which is what they did for 3.4.0 (they also improved their tooling and documentation).

I've however approached things slightly differently - using straight line calculations rather than raycasting, and "edge" elimination techniques - and am quite happy with the results (although I need to combined edges, still). There are very few instances of artefacts cropping up but I'm planning on ironing those out. Otherwise, I aim to more generally apply the algorithm to all objects in the game space that "emit" light, as their light sources still leak through walls (i.e. aren't clipped via shadow casting).
