I've seen articles about the success/hard work debate floating around here in the past. Since this was just posted today I feel like everyone might like to see this.

I do, yes. I use sync.com instead (about $60/year) and they have awesome encryption

hug dunno why but I think you need it

This is really neat, you did an awesome job. I don't know why everyone is being so negative about this.

Hearkens back to another time...

Honestly didn’t realize I felt this way until I read that. We need social networks that actually allow you to meet people, not compete with your friends for likes. It’s not the same because the social networks are focused more on consumption than creation.

I see you are asking the important questions.

Fun fact: if you pause west world while they are looking at code it kind of looks like JavaScript, which explains a lot

I keep trying to tell my friends to not sweat going to the bathroom at work, people just don’t get it smh

I use my voice to set the timer :/ That's pretty much all me and the spouse do...would get a HomePod but they're so expensive

You guys at the Dart team are awesome! <3

...those fish aren't real, are they?

Yes, I know they're real. It's just that they're all terrifying past a certain depth.

Aha, poor guy! Never thought about what it's like without an American keyboard!

It is wonderful. I really want to find a way to help teach kids/teenagers about programming. It can really make you feel good about yourself to build something and see it working

I learned to code from some indie version of basic on the internet called Liberty BASIC when I was 13. I used it for years because the people on the forums were so nice and basically held my hand through learning a lot of basic computer science and exposed me to the history of computing via recreated qbasic programs and games, etc.

I’m super grateful for little things like that. All those older people that were welcoming to me on those forums have a special place in my heart, and I’ve been thinking about them fondly while I build a compiler—something I wouldn’t have been able to do without them answering all my questions when I got stuck.

you’re the hero we (commuters) need.

We certainly don’t deserve you though, you’ve seen how we drive

I need to get rid of my Alexa cuz I know it’s listening but it’s such a convenient timer

Congrats!! I’ve been trying to study the basics of type theory but without a more formal background in some of the mathematics/proofs i’m in a little over my head with those books. The red dragon book seems to have simpler / less mathematical explanations of basic type stuff so far

If only it was that easy. The weeks I’ve spent hunting down webpack specific bugs because the plugins don’t always quite work with typescript transformations and source maps...

Wow, wasn't expecting that to happen anytime soon. I wonder if Apple is prepared to release AirPlay 3 to start the process all over again, or if they will just eventually open-source the spec in defeat.

I absolutely loved that game! I played the Windows version when I was younger.

That guy is a mad genius. It's great knowing there are people who can figure out a two-byte compression scheme (and even know what it is to begin with) by just looking at the binary dumps.

I sure hope so. As a developer for a language, we’re planning on creating a language server and debugger to make it easier for people to use our language.
