OCaml also has a compiler to JavaScript - BuckleScript[1]. There is also js_of_ocaml[2], jsoo in short. Though I personally hope they will go with the WebAssembly route[3] and support it in the mainstream compiler out of the box.

A little note from a systemic biology perspective, I've tried this for great results, it's amazing that we've this focus on sugars and fats and what not when we ignore the fact that our body is just more clever than we think.

No matter what you eat and how much you eat, your body will always try to return to normalcy as soon as possible. However, this action itself, metabolizing the excess, is a very energy consuming act. As shown by multiple research, more fat and protein in your diet is harmful and counter-intuitively you need more carbs.

Here we need to view the body as a full system. In fact, just looking at the metabolic cycles should hint at the real reason why people stay fat, but it's a very subtle message.

Drink more water, and avoid ingesting cold things. Eat as normal when your body wants it.

That's pretty much it. Water is needed almost everywhere in the metabolic cycle, and yet it's really dependent on our ability to drink and absorb water. Notably, cold water diffuses slower than warm water, so our body can't absorb it as well. Drinking water solutions like Coke where diffusion favours the Coke than your body cells also hampers absorption. So TLDR: drink warm water.

Next would be eating. Sugars are easily metabolized by your body and are low investment food compared to everything else. However, eaten in excess when your body no longer needs it causes it to be stored as fat, which requires a lot of water and energy. You see where I'm going at? When your body feels hungry, most of the time it means it's processing something and it needs more energy, so we should give it something that's easier to process.

So that's what I've been trying, it actually shocked me with the results. I've been testing with some TCM tea that helps with digestive system functions and it works even faster.

Why are we debating if anti-racism has gone too far? In the last two weeks local, state and federal police and soldiers were tear gassing, firing rubber bullets and beating peaceful protestors up.

Being assaulted and arrested by the police for free speech is a clear first amendment violation. Being fired for saying something racist is much more constitutionally (and morally) ambiguous.

I was thinking about my experiences drawing and painting. If you do something like impressionistic it can be hard to judge, did I do to much detail, not enough detail. With pen drawing it took me awhile to realize how much more depth i needed to add by using darker values. It did take me a while to have that click. I suspect it would have been obvious if I took a drawing I did and one I considered well done to compare and asked someone experienced to point out the differences.

But also personally when writing it helps to get feedback to a vague question like what do you think. The writing I've done is non fiction, technical blog like stuff. I think the vague question of "what do you think", "how can i make it better" works there because it stands alone. Even when presenting a picture I can almost kind of prime you're reaction with a blurb about it.

Wow this is a great comment about a new-to-FP viewpoint on F#. I came to it after I'd already experimented with Haskell and OCaml, used Rust a lot, and been programming with Lisps for years - and I was really impressed with it nevertheless!

I really love the ML-family type systems. They're really great aides to programming, and makes planning really nice. F# has that, plus that usability from C# and TS. It's also, like you said, got a really beautiful syntax IMHO.

I keep coming back to Rust though, because Rust is more general purpose, more performant, and applies better to the stuff I like to work on for my hobby projects. I'd love to use F# more but can't find a reason to at the moment.

TypeScript, Python and Rust have become my comfort languages, but I like Rust the best, because it's got a lot of really nice features from ML languages and a powerful and safe type system.

It's not just load times of maps. Think load times of assets in real-time. Traditionally youd store everything in ram because the disk storage was slow. This leads to obvious caps in how much you can have loaded at a time. But with fast enough storage you can rely on pulling assets from storage during game, not having to preload. This opens all sorts of flexibility that wasn't possible before.

You can use iMessage if you use it with only data but that does limit your ability to only using iMessage with other iMessage users. When you put the Programmable Wireless SIM in your phone you'll be prompted to associate that number with iMessage, if you deny it, then you it won't pick up that number on the SIM with iMessage. I personally use this solution when traveling out of the country with a Programmable Wireless SIM in my iPhone. It "works" but unfortunately in a limited manner (i.e. data only).
Seeing that most popular languages - Java, C#, Python, Javascript, etc. - run on top of VM and you can develop on one architecture and deploy to another, why does it matter?

I think if I were to try and salvage the quote, I'd change it to "It's probably not that bad". In this telling, I'm meaning to imply that the responder has made an apriori value judgement about a bug without determining scope and cause.

I agree with your ideal response. The only caveat I'd personally make, is that I'd recommend "planting the flag" by providing your own guesstimate of product impact, and ask the reporter for their opinion on moving it.

In my perspective, it's important to acknowledge that is has an impact, and it's especially important to convey your sense of impact concretely with some napkin math. If you're terribly wrong, the reporter will try to convince you of it[1], and you'll learn something along the way. It also conveys empathy (i.e. we're both trying to solve your problem, even if it's only a problem for you).

Actually Microsoft has quite a respectable team of developers dedicated to F#. It is true development suffered because the Roslyn compiler that MS invested a lot of effort into cannot be made to work for the language. F# has been made compatible with surrounding Roslyn tooling over time. (There is a distinction between the Roslyn compiler and the Roslyn tooling I am not qualified to explain.) The fact is that as a functional first language it does not require as much surrounding tooling as C#. Requirements for refactoring tooling, for instance, are far simpler.
Thinking that the quality of science is related to the layout of a lab is like thinking the creativity and beautiful of a piece of art is related to the location and color of the bin the artist stores their tools in.

Or I am getting a working auto-complete for code that does not make the completion system to get killed by the timeout.

I never mentioned not being able to compile the project.
Maybe not necessarily natural, but I think you underestimate how much radioactive material is out among the general public (i.e. outside of power plants and missile silos). Radiology as a medical field literally revolves around using radioactive materials for medical imaging, and there have indeed been incidents where regular people got their hands on some canister of the stuff (that didn't get properly disposed of), oohed and aahed as it glowed in the dark and they painted themselves with it, and a week later dozens of people are dead and hundreds injured from radiation sickness.

>And no I'm not interested in whatever benchmark you're going to want to post,

That's rude.

Let's put it this way. NodeJS and nginx leveled the playing field. It destroyed the lamp stack and made async the standard way of handling high loads of IO. From that alone it should indicate to you that there is something very wrong with how you're thinking about things.

You know the theory of asyncio? Let me restate it for you: If coroutines are basically the SAME thing as routines but with the extra ability to allow tasks to be done in parallel with IO then what does that mean?

It means that 5 async workers in theory should be more performant than 5 sync workers FOR highly concurrent IO tasks.

The logic is inescapable.

So what does it mean, if you run tests and see that 5 async workers are NOT more performant than 5 sync workers ON PYTHON exclusively? The theory of asyncio makes perfect logical sense right? So what is logically the problem here?

The problem IS PYTHON. That's a theorem derived logically. No need for evidence or data driven techniques.

There's this idea that data drives the world and you need evidence to back everything up. How many data points do you need to prove 1 + 1 = 2? Put that in your calculator 200 times and you got 200 data points. Boom data driven buzzword. That's what you're asking from me btw. A benchmark, a datapoint to prove what is already logical. Then you hilariously decided to dismiss it before i even presented it.

Look, I say what I say not from evidence, but from logic. I can derive certain issues about the system from logic. You just follow the logic I gave you above and tell me where it went wrong and why do I need some dumb data point to prove 1+1=2 to you?

There is NOTHING made up above. It is pure logic derived from the assumption of what AsyncIO is doing.

>But note how I said "probably" because I don't know for sure, and I'm not comfortable with making things up and stating them as facts.

But you seem perfectly comfortable in being rude and accusing me of making stuff up. I'm not comfortable in going around the internet and trashing other peoples theories with accusations that they are making shit up. If you disagree say it, I respect that. I don't respect the part where you're saying I'm making stuff up.
This reminds me of some of Sergey Brin's research papers (https://scholar.google.com/scholar?q=sergey+brin), like "What Can You Do with the Web in Your Pocket?" (https://www.cs.princeton.edu/courses/archive/fall02/cs597A/p...)
It’s just the word “matters”. If it followed the pattern “[adjective] [plural noun] Matter” I could see it looking like a tacky parody.
It doesn't make sense to say "authorities should have known better" in the context of making a decision based on falsehoods. It's basically the quote from Animal House - "you fucked up, you trusted [me]". It's a joke, because it's a parody of chutzpah.

We're not at war, and I assume it's perfectly legal to copy information about labs or whatever, so long as you don't incidentally violate any contracts or laws.
Familiar. If you've read any of the literature on snapshot isolation or isolation levels in general (Berenson, Bernstein, Gray, Melton, O'Neil, O'Neil, Adya, Liskov, Fekete, Cerone, Bailis, Alvisi, Clement, Crooks, Pu...) you would probably not expect to see SI treated as stronger than RR. The paper which first defined SI says it's not. Heck, Jim Melton, who wrote that part of the ANSI spec, is a co-author on that paper, which goes on to say the strict interpretation is incorrect and not what ANSI intended!
No. Let's say I'm on version 9 of my app and I release a new major version 10. I think I could use in-app purchases in a new pushed version 9.1 that allows all the people who already have the app to purchase the upgrade to 10. Everyone who buys the app brand new now gets version 10, without that in-app purchase to upgrade to 10.
Strongly agree with most of the points, but not all.

Disagreements :

- App updates. I think that the subscription model would be pretty good for apps actually if you could have a micro transaction system. Great quality apps are constantly maintained and often have recurring costs (API, servers, etc). Selling apps for a one time fee does not fit that well in this model. A nominal fee for app updates kinda solves part of the problem .. you just hope that your users love the new feature enough to buy it. It feels a lot like for a lot of apps that would just lead to feature creep instead of good design. I have been hoping to see a micro-subscription model emerge for a very long time. Unfortunately I don't think customers want that and Apple/Google don't seem super interested in pushing it either (Google kinda has that with Google Play Pass, but in typical Google fashion this is dead on arrival).

- I don't think the web is in a significantly different than it has been for the entirety of iOS/Android existences : it has its place but is not going to replace native anytime soon, especially for the "high quality" apps the author talks about.
I'd say ads inside apps is antithetical to Apple's brand. Does anyone like those?

The great thing about having these ultra fast SSDs and the associated software stacks is that you can get both faster load times and also more assets. One of the greatest benefits of these SSDs imo is that it tightens up how big your streaming pool has to be, freeing up a large amount of ram and allowing for on demand loading of assets just before they are needed.

Additionally the huge bandwidth means that the consoles can fill their entire ram in between 3ish and 6ish seconds, which should reduce max loading times by a lot.

There is just the opposite precedent for the 68K to PPC transition. My 6100/60 (PPC 601/60) was about the speed of a 68030/25Mhz Mac when running emulated software. It was actually slower than my upgraded 68030/40Mhz Mac when running emulated code. My Mac was less than half the speed of top end 68K Macs.

The PPC Macs couldn’t emulate a 68K floating point unit at all.

> Has the level of police violence over the years gotten worse, gotten better, or stayed roughly the same?

I understand why some people’s initial instinct is to believe this is a new problem, but groups have been desperately trying to get people’s attention about police violence for decades.

Rodney King was nearly 30 years ago. And people were crying for help long before that.

I knew there was a problem before, but seeing things unfold the last week made it clear, this is a much more widespread and a significantly deeper issue than most people realized.

Even with all of that said, I think we would be silly to imply that abuse has to happen for a significant amount of time before it’s justifiable for someone to demand it stop.
