There is no need for another freaking chat app should be the obvious answer :) I fully understand why it took off... But the idea that a some app idling on my desktop causes my laptop to spin it's fans is _really_ annoying. And such a small convenience is enough for me to stop using specific apps or even platforms. Especially on mobile where the (lacking) resource management causes hefty workloads and unnecessary strains. I think my main issue with this eco system (which I have used and deployed with) is that it seems to be a waste of resources in the physical sense and you give up control and complexity so that you can get your stuff out of the door. But once it's out there you should take your time and invest into optimizations to make sure that everyone is happy and most of the time this means going native. This is the same issue with the large and overly complex frameworks, I mentioned in my previous post. If your main product is an high turnover of apps with exactly the same mechanics, with slight variance, then the company is burning through their developers instead of giving them time to dabble, learn and expand their knowledge and experience on various levels of the system. Your product shouldn't be the capability to churn out app after app after app with different assets, your product should be the capabilities of your company and it's employees :)

[Here's another publishmanic](https://www.npmjs.com/~jonschlinkert) with 1400+ packages of dubious quality. I mean, [you only had one job](https://github.com/jonschlinkert/in-array/issues/4), [in-array](https://github.com/jonschlinkert/in-array). Here's another gem: [is-odd](https://github.com/jonschlinkert/is-odd). It even needs a dependency to determine if it's dealing with a number. Madness. I would suggest to avoid packages from these people like the plague, but I fear you would have to stop depending on NPM packages entirely.

To be fair, the only examples of communism that we've seen had two problems. One, they never implemented all the communist ideas. Two, they had almost the entire world against them. I would say that every single form of government we know of would fail when pitched against the entire world.

>You can make a fat jar with the legacy app and the java 11 shin and voila you have the ability to run java -jar for your legacy app. Oh, I hadn't thought of that. I didn't consider that the wrapper could be turned into a jar. That's actually a viable solution, although admittedly having to do so in the first place is still a little bit lame. Still, it seems like that can provide a nice portable solution. >It doesn’t make sense to argue that the classpath is going away soon when it hasn’t even been deprecated yet and it makes even less sense to become an early adopter of the module path when you hate it and don’t want to deal with it and don’t have to deal with it. I mean, it was kinda forced upon me by Googling how to fix the JavaFX application I didn't have access to the source code of whilst running Java 11. That's what I came across when I researched it and I tested it and it worked. I didn't know you could create a wrapper application to run this. Although a wrapper jar is a good solution, I feel like I'm still going to be in the same spot whenever they remove classpaths. I just want to futureproof as much as possible because I don't want them being able to take away the ability to run all of my awesome Java applications that I have both written or obtained either closed-source or open-source. Oracle loves to change shit and I'm not a fan of breaking changes, it's annoying.

There are a lot of subtle problems with Electron that have been largely solved with native desktop development - every UI change needing to go through the HTML DOM has performance implications, as does the lack of a native model/view system, so everybody implements their own and does it badly. Same thing with scrolling effects, mouse events, etc. Then there's the issue that you are, essentially, bound by however Chrome/Chromium interprets your OS's interface guidelines and look and feel, which isn't the same way native ones do and can create annoying workflow hiccups. There's also the question of programming aesthetics: using way more resources than necessary just because it's easier is something that many of us oppose on principle. You can say, "Well, it's only RAM", "It's only disk space", etc, but imagine if every program did that. There are a solid 1000 programs available on a default *nix install. What if they all took up 300MB disk space? What if some idiot decided that listing files in a directory was just a special of a browser using the `file://` URL protocol, and now `ls` uses upwards of 1GB of RAM?

I haven't watched the video yet but I remember Commodore marketing in the U.S. as being almost nonexistent. Somebody wrote (John Dvorak maybe?) that if KFC had the same marketing, they would advertise buckets of "warm, dead bird." The top two execs at Commodore were taking home salaries equal to Apple execs and doing nothing good for the company. Meanwhile, Jay Miner (father of the Amiga) and the other engineers were developing this awesome machine. It was really sad to watch.

I think the point is that the UIs in question are frequently not well-designed for humans, especially (but not only) because they are at odds with the rest of the ecosystem in which the user is working, and that ecosystem is well-designed for humans. I don't actually agree with him, though - I think over time web app developers (or perhaps web framework developers) have been getting better at inferring the user's operating system and trying to follow its conventions, e.g. ctrl vs cmd for keyboard shortcuts.

Hmm... That doesn't seem entirely fair. Like, I get how Grothendieck Universes are not modelable in application, but by that metric neither are infinite memory models required by formal Turing Machines. Technically speaking all modern computers are just DFAs, but using Turing Machines as a model works pretty well to explain a lot of points of complexity that show up in practice. Basically: computers are infinite _enough_. And based on the really interesting insights I've gotten from diving into Category Theory, I imagine that a similar concept holds here. But, to be fair, I don't have much formal experience with Category Theory, so perhaps there are nuances I'm missing.

[Here's a grea talk](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WDIkqP4JbkE) by Scott Meyers about it. I did some binary search vs linear search tests on my machine a couple years back. The break even point for that search, at that time was 42k elements. This was quite a bit more elements than I was expecting even knowing how much faster cached CPU code is vs hitting main memory. So, I just made sure my buckets were around 16k or 32k elements and greatly sped things up.

Is D language actually a thing? It's a serious question, I've just discovered it and I'm curious wheter it is used or it is an "experimental" language. I read it is like C with GC, but nothing else. Can anyone explain me what's this language used for?

You mean babies are replacing Linus as kernel maintainer? Because they were born as programmers? I mean evidently you are trying to make a pun here but even then it's a bad pun. It's just head scratching how anyone is born to be as anything - do you think people are also born with the language around them? You should watch some oldschool Alan Kay lectures here.

> a massive headache to deal with, and I'd be tempted to say any package manager / language that cannot deal with this is broken. Sacrificing working libraries of various versions to save some disk space is a horrible trade off. Yeah disk is cheap. I worked a long (too long) tine for company where the constant battle was to get just enough disk-space to keep multiple versions of our content-output. They didn't realize that waste of time deleting old versions constantly cost developer time which is much more expensive than disk-space. Disk is cheap. Computers are cheap. People are not. ​

Many workplaces are becoming BYOD. You don't want to have to get into stupid shit about Windows/Mac/Linux, especially if you're hiring in a technical or creative field. Being able to tell everyone that they can get FooBar 3.2 regardless of what system they bring is a godsend. If you are trying to help a friend/spouse/colleague/random person at a café with something, it's great if they can or do use the same programs that you do, so you're not just stuck saying, "Oh, well, I use FooBar 3.2 for that, but it's Mac only, sorry!"

Not going to complain about your choice of technology. JS can be terse for what you described. However, I wouldn’t disparage the JVM for the use-case you’re talking about. Akka can handle short-lived messages at scale, for instance. Go is fine for application servers. We run some with around 1E7 rps total with latency under 15 ms (ad tech stuff). But we had that performance from Jetty too, just the development was slower because you have to minimize allocations and reuse objects (which if you fuck up introduces horrendous bugs - which we did).

I have seen advice about avoiding floating point in finances repeated very often but never actually suffered from it, so I think it's not a useful thing. 64-bit floats offer enough precision that your significant digits will not be affected. I have seen many 1 cent bugs and the programmer blame it on floating point but this was NEVER the root cause, it was always an issue with rounding in the calculation or assumptions about precision when multiplying by >1. And this happens in any number system. I have worked on many billing and accounting systems. Downvote me all you want, doesn't make me less correct.

> Tiny bit of pedantry from me: I think you need parentheses around '2' in that first sizeof statement. I haven't actually tried it yet, though. Nah, `sizeof` only requires parentheses [for types, not values](https://en.cppreference.com/w/c/language/sizeof). So `sizeof '2'` is ok, but `sizeof int` is not. But of course since `('2')` is also a value, `sizeof('2')` is also valid. > If '2' is 50, then shouldn't that be 52, not 54? Yes, I messed up there. :)

There's nothing magical about jar files in particular. A jar file is just a zip file containing java classes and a manifest. Most commonly used languages have a similar mechanism: gems for ruby, packages for python, and so forth. It's not the packaging that is the cause or solution of the problems. It's the mechanism for tracking dependencies and gluing them all together. Node's is bloated and error-prone. Some of that is just because those other languages had the luxury of planning for modularity upfront, where javascript started as lightweight scripting for web browsers, without any intention it would grow into what it's become. Modules and dependency management are therefore much more hacky in javascript than in languages designed with that in mind from the start. Frankly the Java classpath approach is *also* pretty primitive relatively speaking, which is part of why they invented an entire module management system in Java 9. It was just a vaguely useful point of comparison to what NPM does.

There seems to be several misunderstandings. Sorry, I may have been unclear. The saying *jack of all trades* is often finished with *master of none*. It's obvious that in computing world we're trying to optimize things, that's why we tailor our approaches to our needs. In this sense deep specialization even if it means eschewing some of the commonly found properties can be beneficial (since even good properties we're not making much use of don't add any value). The next point is more linguistic - and just to be clear I'm not a native English speaker, so I may have used it in a wrong way. Even though it seemed right to me, because according to Wikipedia > Silver bullet: ... The term is also a metaphor for a simple, seemingly magical, solution to a difficult problem I'm sorry, but Moore's law is in decay and we've been approaching manufacturing limits for some time now. It's also cheaper to scale out than it is to scale up. Scaling up has some obvious limits, scaling out, while may be harder has these limits generally much higher. There are businesses that operate on a very low margin. Cost savings of using a dedicated solution vs a generic one, that requires more resources can often be the thing that makes or breaks a business. I'm really sorry if this offended you, but I was just speaking from my experience. That *I* have met situations where relational databases were being *misused* (wasting resources). Obviously it's not true for the general public, and yet it doesn't hurt if all of us stop and think deeply every so often. Also please notice, I never said you should model relations with NoSQL databases. In fact the post contains the very notice saying it's just about as nonsensical the other way.

JavaScript could just return undefined, really, and that still wouldn’t crash the web app. The bizarre value that gets returned is an error anyway, but at least undefined makes that clear.

If the application has a local database or has to access files on the hard drive (I know about the FileReader API) or uses a C++ library wrapper, I don't know how it could work as a web app, but fair point. The advantage is clearly the web technology where it's pretty easy to make an interface that looks good even in the most basic text editor, as opposed to Swing or WinForms or whatever GUI framework that comes with its own "studio". It's obvious even to an outsider that a community filled with web designers who obsess over UI has some nicer looking solutions than a community of enterprise Java or .NET people who care more about the architecture of their code and leave UI as a second thought. I agree on your last point as well, everyone is trying to be different and it's going well for them, but in the end it is users who suffer as they get slower software and have to learn UI idioms that are application specific.

Those are some good suggestions, but still way harder than just popping open `node_modules` and messing with it as you see fit. > `gem environment` Good point. That's still harder than `ls node_modules/` though. > so why would it matter that you are modifying other gems. You're gonna revert your changes anyway What if you need to switch to another project in the middle of those changes? Or what if you forget to revert? There's just way less that can go wrong with a separate `node_modules` directory. > git init, git reset --hard, rm -rf .git will accomplish what you want Plausible solution. Seems like a really good way to shoot yourself in the foot though if you're not careful. (For example, you forgot `git add -A` and `git commit -m "Temp"` in that list, which means if you'd tried that for real just now git wouldn't have tracked your changes.) > And I think the majority of devs would agree with me. The circlejerk is wrong. Node's package management is, at the very least, better than Ruby's. And I say that as someone intimately familiar with both ecosystems.

Also maybe worth a note that (at an intra-kernel level), DragonFly BSD uses a lightweight threads and message-passing abstraction. https://www.dragonflybsd.org/cgi/web-man?command=msgport&section=9 Not the same as Amiga, no, but some conceptual similarities. Matthew Dillon, now known for DragonFly BSD, was once Matthew Dillon, known for the Amiga [DICE C](http://aminet.net/package/dev/c/dice-3.16) compiler.

If you aren't sure whether or not your data is relational: your data is relational. NoSQL is great for non-relational data, but nearly all software is literally designed for the express purpose of *displaying and modifying structured data about related things in a useful way*. For that, foreign keys, joins, structured DB migrations, and schemas are indispensable tools that *will* exist in your end product, either in code you write yourself, or for free in your relational DB solution. As it turns out, relational databases are very well-suited to exactly the sorts of data models that are needed to write most software - hence their popularity.
