    Depends - on YouTube, there's definitely a lot of channels that encourage engineering and science of some kind, though not always in a safe way. We had Shitty Robots into just gene…

    Most other compiled languages do dead code elimination, which sounds similar but is a little different. Think of dead code elimination as removing code that doesn't change the outp…

    Don't worry, won't be likely to happen - the ads that are displayed now as banners are literally bid on when it's loading, so at most the ad serving code would be bundled, but you …

    More work to be done, but Mozilla DID get Jupyter Notebook to run on the web with WASM. https://hacks.mozilla.org/2019/04/pyodide-bringing-the-scien...

    Did they finish rolling them out? I know that is (was?) the plan, but when I interviewed last year at the Santa Monica location, they only had whiteboard.

    The English language is pretty large. There are a good number of alternatives to using the word he did that would be safe. He didn't have to use that word, but either did because h…

    It blows my mind that the original link wants to charge 35 dollars for one day of access for this.

    Instagram actually has a program for stubbing existing code called MonkeyType. It requires running your code to collect the data, and then after your run finishes you can then appl…

    I'm not familiar enough with compilers, but why would an ahead of time compiler perform worse than a just in time compiler in a static language? I think I'd understand if it was a …
