That is definitely very interesting! Writing a parser/compiler for 'x' language tends to be a component of many interesting projects, and that's definitely a good start -- thanks :…

I've always wanted to write something like regular expressions for lists of objects. So, for example the example of writing a parser, one could use a regex to match chars to tokens…

My impression of Elm was that it's trying to create a platform for real-time interaction (e.g. games, UIs, etc.) that happens to target the browser. There's a constant undercurrent…

Mildly off-topic, but does anyone else find it odd when people wonder what the function of a naturally evolved object is? I mean, you could ask that of a module in some code or a p…

Could you point an interested reader towards some stats :) ? I wanted to pick up Frege for a hobby project some weekend soon and would love to read more about the JVM up-and-comers…

Behold, the problem net neutrality has searched for: Bell Mobility circa 2013 [1]. For $5, you could buy either 10 hours of Bell Mobile TV™ or ~1.5 hours of Netflix (not including …

Intersection ARC, Lifetimes: * Not having to worry about trivial memory/resource allocations ARC - Lifetimes: * Can blow up hilariously with refcount cycles * Incurs a runtime over…

They're referring to a tracing JIT[1], I believe. [1]: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tracing_just-in-time_compilati...

Unfortunately, as you're keenly aware, the software development industry has a tendency to attempt to reinvent itself every few years. It might stop eventually. For the specific pr…

It's starting to come together :) I'll keep an eye on your repo; I'm still curious about various specifics that will likely be elaborated upon in time.

It was more of a rhetorical question, with the remaining literalness directed at the OP :) but yeah, those are fantastic examples! The Berlin Brandenburg [1] was what came to mind …

1. Aah, makes sense. 2. The similarity with openshift is due to their Marketplace [1], but it pretty much ends there. Sandstorm as well for much the same reason (easy deployments o…

Actually, that's an excellent point -- how do buildings/bridges/etc. actually get built? I mean, laugh if you will, but can you not think of any examples of construction projects t…

Zero offense intended; the following are my honest-to-goodness impressions of your product. 1. I have no idea what it is. DIY (presumably) microservices? And, there's a way to use …

Seeing this run through an equivalent of the deep dream visualizer could be really interesting -- what _are_ people looking for in thumbnails? I'm having difficulty imagining what …

Not sure if I'm reading this right but per the NCHS (via the CDC)[1][2][3], in 2013, for people aged 15-24, ~6500 died relating to motor vehicle injuries whereas ~6000 died relatin…

Fair enough, I suppose. Still, I'll miss reading the occasional post outlining Linus' outbursts on the kernel mailing lists when that day comes.

Aah, brilliant -- and they even have a book :D thanks for the recommendation!

This brings up a point that's been nagging at me for a while: does making a community more inclusive necessarily mean making it less distinctive? GenderDetector (formerly SexMachin…

I certainly could (and actually hadn't thought of doing that; the hype was really getting to me)! Part of the difficulty is in fixing the setup process, though, as over the years t…

Bother you for a little advice? I'm working at a mid-sized tech company and am evaluating Docker for CI, testing and limited, internal deployment usages. The services in question a…
