idnefju··on High-Performance GPU Computing in the Julia Programming Language (2017)
OpenCL isn't in a good place. CUDA has become the industry standard.
idnefju··on How to not rewrite it in Rust
Forking for whatever reason is in the spirit of open source. Asking if something is right is nonsense. From an ethical point of view, it follows the license of the project so there is no issue.

If the author of the original source had an issue with the above scenario, they would've chosen a more restrictive license that didn't make it possible.

Of course it also depends on your pigmentation and where you live.
idnefju··on Docker Compose reads your “.env” without opt-out
do you have any article links about your kind setup?
idnefju··on C++ Ecosystem: Compilers, IDEs, Tools, Testing
Had so much trouble trying to get a C++ project cmake setup with opencv 4 in macOS. Until I found conan.

I have been use to package managers from other languages.

idnefju··on Kafka Spawns Open-Source KarelDB
> I've been looking into Kafka lately, because I have a need for "the thing that Kafka is in practice" (not a message queue per se; rather, an indefinitely-durable event store that supports message-queuing API semantics for consumers.)

Don't think that is a secret feature. It was an intended feature, from the author himself [1].

idnefju··on Uncomfortable AWS Truths
Is ES one of these necessary evils? I have been looking for a product similar to it, but it seems ES is always recommended.
idnefju··on TypeScript 3.6
And OCaml lacks features that F# has. Like proper multicore support, computation expressions, unit of measure, operator overloading.
idnefju··on Ask HN: Should I learn C++ in 2019?
I wouldn't compare it like that. Templates are more like meta-programming. Templates can achieve what you can do with Java generics, but they can also do a lot more.
idnefju··on Scala Native
Oh interesting view. It's funny since Scala's author himself doesn't consider the IO monad to be "pure".

> “The IO monad does not make a function pure. It just makes it obvious that it’s impure.”

idnefju··on Scala Native
> It's a little known fact but the kind of FP programming we do in Scala tends to be more pure than what happens in OCaml, F#, Erlang, Clojure and others.

What do you mean by pure exactly? IO Monad? Simply no side effects?

idnefju··on Why Generics?
ad-hoc polymorphism is where it shines. Such as the typeclass in Haskell or modules in OCaml
