No, you'd likely get unrelated style changes in your commits. Read the gofumpt readme to understand why.

Ksplice was never owned by Ubuntu...

It's got good macros and the implementation of both regular code and macros operate on the same core datastructures. It has the interactive features for inspecting and modifying a …

ThePhD is project editor for WG14, the C language standards committee. The other poster is probably referring to them as "the sheep dev" because ThePhD is prolific on GitHub and ha…

I like it a lot even though almost all of my functions have no dispatch (only one implementation) or single dispatch (implementation differs based on the type of just one of the ar…

Also, several of the buggy uses of @inbounds were safe at the time they were written (early <1.0 julia when arrays were always indexed from 1).

Fundraising and publishing are specialised skills that artists don't necessarily have. Also, lots of people, including many artists, like the stability of a steady pay check and em…

It's correct if you want to do something `length(A)` times and want an iteration counter, but it's never better than `for idx in eachindex(A)` if what you actually want are indexes…

Julia released experimental support for arrays whose indexes don't start at 1 in Julia 0.5, October 2016. The boundschecking feature was added in 2015, so at the time they wrote th…

I don't think there's any clean way to stop that at a language level (some languages prevent this by disallowing random access to arrays, but that's a non-starter for a performance…

Dogs often eat a lot less when they are stressed, though usually not so little or for so long that they get emaciated.

Julia REPLs and editor plugins have adopted a nice feature where you can type the LaTeX name of the symbol you want to get it. e.g. `\subseteq` followed by tab yields `⊆` or `\trad…

> The regulation has yielded questionable results, however. Last month in Guangxi, mine bosses visited a pit for a routine inspection. Shortly after, seven assistants were promoted…

I really like Baselet.jl[1] which provides Tuple-specialised implementations for a bunch of Base APIs that the compiler is very good at unrolling :) [1]: https://github.com/tkf/Bas…

Why would they exclude a repo and then not exclude all PRs from that repo?

You can use unbindurl, so you can unbind tridactyl's j/k on mail.google.com, for example. Keys not bound in tridactyl are passed through to the page.

... and Mozilla. The company that most of the core team are from ;)

Other quotes from the chain by ESR about Eric Schultz: > I am not fooled. You are mounting an ideological attack on our core principles of liberty and nondiscrimination. You will n…

Those are already problems with aviation, so that's nothing new. The existing rules didn't emerge from primordial ooze, they were also influenced by lobbyists and have certain effe…

You can have a more expressive voting system than that. People can rank their priorities, etc.

If you just give fines to companies that don't run flights on routes then you can impose a penalty without incentivising empty or near-empty flights.

You can just fine the companies rather than incentivising them to run empty planes. Better yet, institute a proper carbon tax and either a carefully thought-out market for slots an…

Julia can stack allocate all sorts of values. I think it currently stack allocates all immutable values and also every mutable value that it proves do not escape their function. Ki…

The other replies are slightly out of date and imprecise. PackageCompilerX replaced PackageCompiler (and there's a PR open that will pull all the X work in soon). The binaries prod…
