`.envrc` by default

Still 986 years to go!

I’d rather fly in an airplane with a system coded in Ada/Spark rather than Python ¯\_(ツ)_/¯


you have problem with Snakes in a plane ?


I've had it with these monkey-coding snakes this Monday-to-Friday work-week.


I will give it a spin on my Apple Vision Pro. Have been trying ttyd, which could really be great as is it browser based and hence I can have as many windows as I want, but a safari bug on iOS/ipados/visionos is a showstopper: specifically, safari sends keycode 13 events (enter key) when pressing ctrl-c on a hardware keyboard. So emacs, interrupting fg processes etc are problematic.

I’ll submit a pr to xterm.js for a workaround.


OCaml was used for rust.


This is hacker news. Why not post this on other forums where it won’t be flagged?


Like, praying? Or maybe one feels good after sincere prayers, perhaps…


I’ve heard too many stories of people stopping the scientific backed medicines because they’ve thought that prayer was enough.

Humans will not be able to evolve until we eradicate religion from the earth.



Ah, I kept that BP6 for 10 years before selling it. It meant I could write multithreaded concurrent software and run it at home with LinuxThreads (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/LinuxThreads) then NPTL (native Posix threading lib).

Mine was not very stable under even moderate overclocking though!

Good times!


Partly; OCaml does not, in the general case, generate code for a function for each boxed data type it is called with, for example. This, and the fact that the compiler does not optimize extensively, makes for fast compilation. The code still runs fast, especially for a language with gc.
