null | GhostBond | null | I don't feel like most of what you wrote relates to what I wrote.
I seem to have finally found a large company that's actually eager about hiring. Here's the difference.
Call Quality:
Old Stuff: Hiring was their lowest priority, so they'd call me on old cellphones, speakerphones, using a phone you could hear clearly on they didn't care. You couldn't even tell what they were saying half the time.
New Stuff: Hiring is important so I dial into their conference line where they use the same headsets and phone system they use for company calls. Huge improvement in clarity.
Rescheduling:
Old Stuff: Again hiring was their lowest priority so they'd reschedule multiple times, sometimes they'd just call an hour or two after it was scheduled, etc.
New Stuff: Hiring is important so they make the appointment and keep it.
Tech Checklist:
Old Stuff: If I didn't have every single item on their list (no one usually really has every single item) they seemed to lose interest.
New Stuff: If I have the main stuff that's all they need.
Getting Back To You:
Old Stuff: I've had them tell me 24 hours, then ignore my followup emails and get back to me a week later as if it was no problem. A lot of times they've vaguely handwave about how they were doing a lot of interviews and probably in the next week.
New Stuff: They scheduled the next step in the interview process within 1 hour of the initial phone screen.
I'm not further into it, so we'll see how the rest goes, but there is a **clear** difference between a company who actually wants to hire, and the several I've talked to who clearly weren't very serious about it.

In any case, Clojure is far more understandable even if you are at that scale simply because of its age and its popularity as a more friendly functional language.

null | cledamy | null | Of course, many of the tools for formally verify software require further research. This is because of my point that not many people take an interest in them. Some tools already exist that can give one some measure of formal verification for free if one programs in languages that have them (e.g. referential transparency (guarantees safety of refactoring) and linear logic (guarantees deterministic freeing of memory)). With C, java, and ada, one has to go outside of the language and use heavy weight formal verification tools to verify them. However, a language that supports the aforementioned features can get a certain degree of formal verification for free through the type system. Adding proper formal verification on top of a language that has say referential transparency is much simpler because one does not have to rely on Hoare triples to prove propositions due to the minimization of shared state. Also, one can globally reason about the correctness of components rather than be forced to locally reason due to state. Another interesting implication of this is that one can partially formally verify separate components without going through the trouble of verifying the whole thing if that is more convenient. Essentially, formal verification would be much simpler if the languages were built with it in mind. | null | 0 | 1491334812 | 1491335390 | 0 | dftvoaf | t3_63auwj | null | null | t1_dftt9w4 | null | 1493795629 | 1 | t5_2fwo | null | null | null |

I am not arguing for performance for its sake. What I am saying is if we used more formal methods, we could get the performance without sacrificing safety. Also, the greater correctness from the formal methods would translate to other areas of program correctness beyond memory safety.

null | yogthos | null | My overarching team is about 50 developers. Our turn over is pretty low, I think we've had about 3-4 people leave in the past 5 years, and we tend to hire a couple of devs per year. We do a lot of vetting in terms of culture fit when we hire, and people tend to stick around.
We break our team down into subteams of about 5 devs that work directly with each other. My experience is that it's the most effective way to work on projects. This is not a technology problem, but rather a communication one. It's really hard to communicate effectively for teams much larger than 5 devs. You end up with a lot of noise, wasted meetings, and so on. So, we break large projects down into independent components, assign small teams to work on those, and then build up the overall product that way. This also makes projects much easier to maintain, and to swap components around as you go.
The maturity of the language definitely helps, and also the fact that Clojure is hosted on the JVM and has good Java interop. This allowed us to start integrating it into our existing projects, and it went from there. ClojureScript is a bit newer on the other hand, we only started using it about a year ago in production. So far we're pretty happy with the results though. :)

I agree with you that making $100k here you don't have to struggle to hard. But 5 years ago $100k was "living in a really nice place while still living for retirement", but now it's "not struggling to hard". :-/

null | gmfawcett | null | Well, let's at least try to formulate the problem: P(there, reading_this) = P(there|reading_this)*P(reading_this) by the product rule.
P(reading_this) is about 1/7000000 based on the current-users information for the subreddit, and the current world population. For P(there|reading_this), let's assume it equal to P(there), since reading this article right now shouldn't directly influence attendance at the museum (this is debatable, of course). Now, P(there) is maybe 50/7000000000, assuming there are about 50 people in front of the exhibit, and assuming (wildly!) that all people on the planet have an equal chance of visiting the museum. So I'd put it at P(there, reading_this) = P(there)*P(reading_this) = (50/7000000000)(1/7000000). Which is approximately one in six, plus or minus a bit. | null | 0 | 1491337323 | False | 0 | dfty2jq | t3_63e1ws | null | null | t1_dftmrv3 | null | 1493796791 | 20 | t5_2fwo | null | null | null |

null | pron98 | null | Knowing that a program has some property does not become easier or harder depending on the language used to express the program or the one used to express the property. It doesn't really matter, nor is it harder, that in C/Java, I need to write `\ensures retval % 2 == 0` in some specification language and that in a dependently-typed language I could write that the return type is `{x : Int | x % 2 = 0}` or something like that. Writing that property and proving that property is equally easy, and uses the same algorithms. If you transliterate a Haskell program to C, proving "Haskell properties" on the C code would be as easy as proving them on the Haskell code. The language *does* make a difference when it globally makes some assertions. For example, in C and Java specification languages you say that a function is pure by writing `pure` next to it. The difference between Haskell and C is, then, that Haskell forces you to add that `pure` annotation everywhere, and so the resulting structure of the program makes proving *some* properties easier.
In other words, what makes verifying those properties easier isn't the expressiveness of the language but the structure it forces on the program. That doesn't make the *proof* easier, but rather makes it more likely that you're asking an easier question. Proving Fermet's Last Theorem is just as hard no matter in what language you state the proposition, but the choice of language can affect the chances that the correctness of, say, your sorting function is as hard a problem as proving FLT.
But that's only in theory. It is very much an open question how languages are able to achieve that for properties that are not immediate consequences of those they enforce to begin with, or whether those are the right properties to enforce. Now, that is not to say that we shouldn't use languages that enforce properties that we know to be important in order to eliminate common sources of bugs; the most notable example is memory safety.
The reason formal methods work but we still don't know how to make writing provably correct programs affordable isn't that people aren't interested in formal methods, but that we just don't really know how to do it. After all, this is a problem that is essentially intractable in the best of cases. In the 1980s there was a research winter in formal methods because the field overpromised and underdelivered. Research has since set its sights lower. Affordable, general, scalable and complete program verification is not a direct goal anymore. People are working either on eliminating certain classes of bugs, fully verifying certain types of programs etc..
> Essentially, formal verification would be much simpler if the languages were built with it in mind.
That's true, but those would not necessarily be the languages you have in mind. Currently, the languages most amenable to formal verification use a style called synchronous programming, and they are used in writing safety-critical realtime systems. | null | 0 | 1491337376 | 1491425264 | 0 | dfty4dl | t3_63auwj | null | null | t1_dftvoaf | null | 1493796815 | 1 | t5_2fwo | null | null | null |

null | arihoenig | null | It is impossible to overstate how much more than a terminal WSL is. With WSL Windows runs linux executables natively. The Windows loader recognizes ELF headers and loads the binary just as it would load a PE binary. Once loaded into memory the binary is linked dynamically against a libc replacement (quite realistically a Linux binary can be considered a Windows binary that just happens to make kernel calls that look like Linux kernel calls which the Windows kernel just happens to also support).
