I think people are missing the point: the loudness and ostentatiousness is seen as a celebration of Asian American identity by the author. In Denver there is a similar culture surr…

Nice. I remember being exposed to this idea as Dyck languages , via Ed Kmett’s recorded Monoidal Parsing talk.

when I saw this headline my first thought was: wow DDG must not have a lot of users.

Unless the attacker is law enforcement.

This reminds me of the time my middle-school history teacher decided to bring in one of the student’s financial advisor parents to defend price-gouging on gas during Hurricane Katr…

Wow cool, you just summed up something I’ve found myself doing subconsciously in the past few years. Thanks! I use to be quite fond of short identifiers, especially ones the make t…

Beautiful work. As an off-topic observation, whenever I see something like the phrase “operates between the public and the private space” I immediately think: this person definitel…

Yeah no. This happens in my city and to my friends. You're making a lot of assumptions about people's experiences here.

Consider yourself lucky that you've never called the cops as a victim and then been further victimized by the police.

On the more mainstream side of things, Typescript also has a bottom type called `never` which is used to type unreachable/exceptional code.

If I had to guess: 1. lack of native GC, you had to roll your own by providing a runtime. 2. lack of tail-call elimination in V1 of the spec. This essentially forces you to trampol…

It is crazy how much work comes out of Bruno Oliveira’s research groups. Another cool online thing that exists is CP, a language with disjoint intersection and union types: https:/…

Do you have any advice for understanding the difference between "relational" and "tablational"? I remember hearing something about how SQL is not really relational from my college …

Probably? Locality becomes fairly important at scale. That’s why there’s a strong preference for array-based data structures in high-performance code. If I was them I’d be using OC…

Is that really a viable solution for a timeframe of 6+ hours?

Fair. Sorry about that.

Quite honestly, I’m surprised it’s taken this long. It’s been 21 years since one of their biggest evangelists wrote the format!

I think the problem is an assumption that people are too stupid to grasp their brilliant idea. That being said, having all drones equipped with cameras could enable a more robust v…

No one is arguing the merits of drone warfare. We have two years of footage from Ukraine, where camera-equipped drones are launched from a several miles away at most, and where the…

So now the camera is pointed at the target? How is it checking that the other drones are headed in the right direction? And the personnel on the ground? They're just chillin' waiti…

So the old “use a single unreliable 2D instrument to coordinate multiple fast-moving projectiles in three dimensional space” approach.

I understand that you’re probably just gonna reply with “still only need one camera” …but if GPS is jammed, and there’s only one camera per fleet, how exactly are the other drones …

Yeah, it has its limits for sure. I like it for the streaming aspect. I think you can still have the functionality described in the article: you would send “hole” markers tagged wi…

If you send the tree in preorder traversal order with known depth, you can send the tree without node ids or parent ids! You can just send the level for each node and recover the t…
