drivebyops··on Hacking DNA: CRISPR, Ken Thompson, and the Gene Drive
In other words, any sign of symptoms would cause Madagascar to remain the last place inhibited by humans since they would close their ports/airports real quick
drivebyops··on F# 4.1 and Visual F# Tools for Visual Studio 2017
Yep traits are definitely like typeclasses.

Well F# might get it when Shapes gets into C# (C# version of traits/typeclasses which is being discussed)

drivebyops··on What can Rust do for astrophysics?
Maybe that C code was the safe version which is inline with the rest?
drivebyops··on Getting Started with Functional Programming in F#
Scala is Hindley-Milner?
drivebyops··on The .NET Language Strategy
2017 type classes, 2018 Higher minded types ;)

Both going in at the same time would be better

drivebyops··on Rust creator Graydon Hoare is now at Apple working on Swift
What's missing is built in concurrency/parallelism model

It's definitely a better language than C# after that

drivebyops··on Night Shift Mode in macOS Sierra 10.12.4
Or sue Apple ;)
drivebyops··on Most used words in programming languages
Well Python also doesn't have a Match/switch flow. So that would bump ifs up

Shadow play has that record last X minutes feature that OBS doesn't I think
drivebyops··on H265: Technical Overview
I think Kaby lake cpus should have decoding support as well
drivebyops··on The Four Flaws of Haskell
Golang is simple and most graduates would be familiar with the style (C with some extras)

Haskell is radically different for people

drivebyops··on The Four Flaws of Haskell
atom (ghcmod + the various haskell pluings) is good enough for me honestly

sublimehaskell (hsdev, etc.) was good as well

drivebyops··on Exceptions in OCaml (Reason)
seems like a more verbose ocaml for the javascript generation
drivebyops··on Looking back on Swift 3 and ahead to Swift 4
is offical Windows support planned?
drivebyops··on Go’s march to low-latency GC
Not the build system, a pain to get the libraries in Windows for a Multiplatform project that I wanna compile.

Where in Go this is very easy

drivebyops··on Program your next server in Go
Swift would be more expressive, I certainly had a grand time writing in it. I wonder if it can get HKT ahead of C#
drivebyops··on Size cost of C++ exception handling on embedded platforms
Welp time to use Option types for error handling ;)
drivebyops··on Electron 1.0 is here
I have found these nodejs desktop apps to use less RAM than other more traditional Toolkits like Qt. I can live with more disk space being used if it means better memory usage
drivebyops··on Essential C (2003) [pdf]
Kernighan pronounces it care as in how you say character.

drivebyops··on Second Oracle v. Google trial could lead to headaches for developers
It's in their interest since they have an open alternative in .net core
drivebyops··on Periscope Annouces a New Feature to Compete with Facebook Live
Justin.tv should've never closed down

It was quite nice with functionality and steaming from your mobile

It could've continued to coexist with twitch

drivebyops··on Document 17 Declassified – 9/11 attackers may have had links to Saudi Arabia [pdf]
Pretty much ever since this place got a large influx of users it hasn't been as good with the content posted
drivebyops··on A Protocol for Dying
Thought this was something for killing processes judging by the title and it being hacker news
drivebyops··on Getting Started with Swift on Android
Would this work to create games for android with OpenGL?
drivebyops··on Proposal: Go should have generics
Yea Swift is honestly great to write
drivebyops··on Apple pulls third-party Reddit clients for NSFW content
They should remove the official reddit app then
drivebyops··on Oracle seeks $9.3B for Google’s use of Java in Android
Well I remembered a keynote on android back in the early days talking about the amount of Java developers, that they could easily start development or something like that.

I think because iPhone SDK was objective-C and it wasn't widely used. So Google might've thought they would've had an edge there

drivebyops··on Firefox for iOS Now Available for Preview in New Zealand
does it at least come with its own video player for vp8/vp9 videos?
