    Sorry, are you implying that filmmaking is somehow less universal than software engineering? Many jobs are more difficult than hacking on Angular bs all day, it’s not like most dev…

    You might like to read about the Writers Guild in Hollywood. Highly organized, high salaries far surpassing even that of tech, with graduates in the top percentiles coming into 500…

    So what about streams? Functions? Closures? Call/cc structures? I understand your point if you are speaking in literal terms about just simple cons cells, but in practical Lisp/Sch…

    I am learning it now, it’s pretty neat. I think the simplicity is a big appeal for me. I’ve tried Nim but it just seemed inconsistent, the case insensitivity is insane, and I think…

    Hard agree! Time to strip some of the administrators and get some talent in the classrooms. I heard Florida was letting people in classrooms after just a few hours of supervision. …

    Ever looked at OpenFL? https://www.openfl.org/ Couple notable games haves used it. Haxe is a pretty mature ecosystem as well, from what I’ve heard. I spent my thirties working and …

    I’ve run some medium/large scale side projects with Linode in the past and like many others, I was absolutely blown away by the high quality and professional support I received. If…

    I'd rather gouge my eyes out than work with Rust code. Horrific.

    Does Java still have a use for variables without final? Does Javascript still have a use for functions without async/await? This is just a repackaging of an age-old argument, imo. …

    So, like Erlang? What’s an example of a language that does this by default?

    Alternatively, cap the price of tuition for childcare degrees? People get degrees for leverage in wage negotiation, and to further their career. Advising against is anti-worker, im…

    Taking YC advice is sort of like getting cooking tips from customers coming out of a nice restaurant. They’ve eaten good food, but they may or may not know anything about starting …

    I’ve heard this sentiment a lot from people who’ve read it. I think he wrote himself into a tight spot though, and I’m happy with the result. Part of me thinks the second act could…

    I liked Project Hail Mary (and Artemis, and The Martian) but I thought it was a little too heavy in the programmer narrative style. I won’t spoil anything in case someone reads thi…

    If you like it, you might enjoy a book called Seveneves. The first sentence involves the moon blowing up, and the rest of the book is about the consequences of that. Quite good, im…

    What is Sam Altman’s credibility again, besides wealth? Are we to assume he actually knows anything other than neuro-grift? I’m not buying it.

    I’m the biggest python fan in the world, and you’re out of your mind if you think it can compete with Java for enterprise programming or even embedded programming for that matter. …
