Who the fuck cares?

the most mainstream one for the moment.

It’s a ghost town (much like this comment thread). ;)

Being an early adopter can be boring sometimes.

Try NixOS. It eliminates that ISO centric paradigm and trades it for one config file that defines everything and builds it from scratch.

Maybe Nikon will be able to guide them into not making dogshit cameras compared to their competitors while using snake oil sales tactics to lie to their end users who are virtually immune to that bullshit.

Yeah I saw that too! A super conservative, tech bro chud troll account for sure.

I think we found Robin William’s character in Hook before he went to Never Never Land. 🤣

If I didn’t live in this sick society, I might not believe such a sociopath existed. I bet OP also praises Nestle, Monsanto, and Theranos for their business savvy.

Ever heard of OpenCL? AMD started that project. CUDA is closed source.

What kind of hedge fund, MBA, anti-consumer chud counts it as a point AGAINST a company for developing open source technologies when they could have easily closed their IP warchest and offered a first-party CUDA bridge? AMD actively chose to embrace the open source world rather than further enabling a CUDA monopoly. IMO, every computer user in the world owes AMD a debt of gratitude for their contributions to open source technologies like OpenCL.

I can tell you’re a Windows user because if you used Linux for even a single day (you know, the kernel that is the industry standard for virtually ALL internet servers including Microsoft’s), you’d know all too well that NVidia is objectively hostile to open source technologies and the consumers who are unwitting victims of their anti-competitive, closed source technologies.

Yeah Marxists are usually Trump supporters.

Please stop embarrassing yourself.

If they can’t even admit that the economy is BAD, I don’t feel the need to entertain their other opinions.

Can’t believe no one has recommended putting your phone in a ziplock with a big bag of desiccant. That’s basically exactly what the rice is doing (minus the grains getting everywhere).

This seems like a great place to plug my upcoming fantasy baseball betting DApp. /s

I came here to say exactly this.

Perhaps a space race with China would rekindle the motivation for our money grubbing demagogues to actually fund it.

I have. Edit; I haven’t 🤣 didn’t see the .js at the end of that word so some of the following is probably irrelevant, though I’ll leave it because it took me a while to type it out. Haha

I’d probably be more interested in it if I were being forced by my day job to work in the JVM. I happen to be in a situation where I am my own boss working on projects completely alone and the tech I pick comes from months of wasting time making perfect the enemy of good. I know that raises quite a few red flags but I can’t help the way that they made me. Haha 🥴

From what I’ve gathered from Joseph Gordon Bell at the (IMO best software engineering podcast ever) Co-Recursive podcast, Scala sacrifices some of the purity and safety by its dependence on the the Java cargo cult. Partly, this is also a drawback of Purescript for me (since it’s intended to compile to JavaScript) but Purescript is starting to be able to escape that fate. Also, I’m a HUGE fan of Haskell syntax.

From your perspective, what pros and cons do you see if I were comparing Scala to Purescript?

Ps. The one that is actually really making me take notice lately is OCaml for the browser.

I’m no white beard, I don’t know much or really any deep category theory (which is, by the way, just some fancy names for stuff we do CONSTANTLY as software engineers), and I use it every single day. Suit yourself, though.

I vastly prefer Purescript despite it being the road less traveled. Typescript is just a fake-ish type system on top of JavaScript. But Purescript goes MUCH further in the mission of purity and code safety.
