    They're considering an IPO. I'd say an acquisition is unlikely. Even then, they'd be worth more to Facebook or MS.

    Yeah probably.

    Curious to know what part of syntax you found convoluted. If you remember any examples I’d appreciate it. Maybe you want a constraint programming environment instead. As example ch…

    The generated programs are only technically Prolog programs. They use CLPFD, which makes these constraint programs. Prolog programs are quite a bit more tricky with termination iss…

    If I may nitpick, the call to children’s accept methods should be in the visitor, not the parent. Imagine you’re writing an XMLGeneratorVisiter. The visit method for the parent wou…

    Prolog was never good at the things they thought it would be at, like AI, which is better done by ML today, specifically often like you said, with NNs. But it turned out to be good…

    I agree with your point, I just would like to point out maybe the OR-tools they meant is the one made by Google, so a specific one: https://developers.google.com/optimization

    Indeed Prolog programs are also called databases sometimes. Some things Prolog can do over SQL: - infinite data defined by recursive predicates - flexible data structures (think JS…

    Yes :) we make software that helps sell complex products (If your product has a million options and takes up a whole factory floor you can’t just have a series of dropdowns)

    Prolog, and Constraint Programming especially are great to have in your toolbox. I’ve done research in the field for years, and my job in the industry today is writing Prolog. Ther…

    I took one of those (Alva labs) multiple times for different companies. My “intelligence” (or whatever they call it) score was 7/10 first, then 8/10, and then 9/10 I think in the l…

    Article doesn’t get into the question in the title. Even though, it is an interesting article on ancient maps and how people used them at the time.

    Not seaweed but in Turkey we still eat marsh samphire (Salicornia europaea), barilla plant (Salsola soda), and rock samphire (Crithmum). These grow in the tidal marshes on the sea.…
