Re:C++ and the Culture of Complexity (2013) on Wednesday January 31, 2018 @12:18PM (#16275472)
Does anybody know a good tutorial or book for learning modern C++ 17, focused on best practices (new language paradigms, TDD/BDD, etc.) ? Something like Michael Hartl's Ruby on Rails Tutorial
The Changelog
Re:Ask HN: What is your go-to example for a good REST API? on Saturday June 25, 2016 @01:49AM (#11975393)
I implemented two APIs with it, mostly read oriented to be honest. The biggest problem we faced is the lack of maturity of Android and iOS SDKs for it.

A very good article comparing SSE, Websockets, polling, long polling was posted a few months ago, still relevant : https://www.nateberkopec.com/2015/09/30/action-cable.html

Re:ChucK: Strongly-Timed Music Programming Language on Sunday November 08, 2015 @05:03AM (#10528100)
When I tried it a few years ago, there was no way to read a stereo wave file :-) Looking at the changelog, it seems it was introduced around version 1.3.0. It was a showstopper for me then. At that time, I could not find an equivalent of SuperCollider's Patterns library which is fantastic : http://doc.sccode.org/Tutorials/A-Practical-Guide/PG_01_Intr...
Re:ChucK: Strongly-Timed Music Programming Language on Saturday November 07, 2015 @02:25PM (#10525876)
Last time I checked, it was way less powerful than SuperCollider, and development was kinda stalled. Happy to see there is a new version though.

Really good article ! It would be nice to compare the perfs with an Elixir/Phoenix backend, since they target exactly this use case.

Interesting ! Not that far from the new Common Lisp based language OMN brought by Opus Modus which was released early this year http://opusmodus.com/omn.html

I'm not an expert about Linux server-side distros. I'm using Ubuntu Server, I haven't seen any cons for now. Any hint ?

And they acknlowedge it : "We would like to thank React for showing that full re-renders can be made efficient. While we did not their precise Virtual DOM approach, their work with Virtual DOM was extremely influential to our approach in Glimmer." Fair play !
Re:A standard for building APIs in JSON on Saturday March 28, 2015 @09:37AM (#9281441)
I had to write an API with lots of one-to-many and many-to-many relationships, with iOS, Android and JS apps accessing the APIs so it needed a mean to sideload data. I found JSONApi to be a good guide to building the API. Of course, I was a bit sad when the spec changed quite radically in its last iteration, but, hey, my API still works, that's not so bad.
