null | codebje | null | I've used both Atom and VScode with Elm.
I honestly don't know if there's still no source maps, I don't do a whole lot of breakpoint-and-step debugging, I got out of the habit doing a bunch of lazy-eval code where it gets kind of strange. I did have a problem where I put in a debug trace (fancy speak for "chuck printfs everywhere and see what turns up") that was always happening, even when I could see success had occurred, and this was because Elm is strict - if you do something like:
Maybe.withDefault
(trace "took default branch" defaultValue)
somePartialComputation
... then Elm will evaluate the `trace` expression whether it uses it or not, while I'm more used to having expressions only evaluated when they're needed.
Autocomplete is definitely not on the level of, say, IntelliJ for Java or Visual Studio's IntelliSense for C#. But I think it [does OK](http://i.imgur.com/f9vNf71.png) - it searches in modules, it gives types and docstrings. It's not context aware, though, it can't give me more accurate suggestions based on the type of the hole in the expression I'm building. For that level of editor support, you'd need a _much_ better type system than Elm's!
And you can see in the same shot that the error is also immediately highlighted.
Also, that right there is me accessing the DOM, there are just rules about it, to keep the safety guarantees.
By contrast, my only experience with TypeScript was trying to write a trivial extension for VScode, and that experience was abysmal - the default skeletal project structure had something like 180 warnings due to type problems, any actual issues with my code were invisible in that mess, and ... gradual typing, it's like having a safety line that's only attached on one end.

null | kyz | null | > It also tried to attack technical issues like the constant breakage of hyperlinks you get in HTML or the inability to quote a subsection of another HTML page.
True, but that's a technical problem with a social solution: incentivise page owners to get URLs right the first time and keep them static, e.g. like search engines do (more Google-juice for long-lived URLs). Give them tools to find and fix broken links. It's not to let linked-to pages tell linking pages what the new address is.
I don't know about you, but I would shit a brick if a page I linked to dialled back to my server and sent an `UPDATEURL http://www.innocentsite.com/kittens/ http://evilsite.com HTTP/1.0` request.
MediaWiki has generally the right idea; renaming a page auto-generates a redirect from the old URL to the new one, and slowly but surely robots (authorised by page owners) update linking pages to point directly.
Xanadu glossed over the main source of bit-rot. It's not that a site remains up and serving the same content using changed URLs, but that entire sites are abandoned and either their registrations lapse (NXDOMAIN) or worse they're taken over by domain spammers who don't serve the content you were expecting but do serve malware.
Xanadu's plan was to keep all documents, indefinitely. It didn't have a plan for when page authors wanted to stop updating their pages. What if they handed them over to spammers in exchange for money? The same social problem would exist as exists in WWW - highly regarded URLs abuse the trust placed in them by people who link to them and sell out.
Ultimately, I like the archive.org solution best. If you're looking at a web page last updated in 1997, and its links don't work, go back to the web in 1997 and see what *used* to be there. It's also why I like wikis, although they still ultimately control their history and can outright delete it if they really don't want people to see it.
> True, but at the same time the idea wasn't all that wrong and parts of the Web are slowly going in the same direction. Youtube owns a pretty large part of the video distribution on the Web precisely because they respect copyright and are able to pay authors. The lone non-centralized video hosters do exist, but they are small fish compared to Youtube.
The pendulum is swinging back the other way, and people are still trying to work out the best way to fund and distribute creative works, but I think most people are agreed they wouldn't want Xanadu's technical solution of absolute attribution and paying your ISP to hand out micropayments to page authors.
Copyright does not guarantee anyone an income, just limited control over copying and distribution. Your example of Youtube - they don't make money because they "respect copyright", rather they make money because they have convinced an audience to combine watching authors' videos with watching/reading adverts. The advertisers get a benefit from people voluntarily watching their message, which would otherwise go unseen, and pay Youtube, who then share that with the video authors.
Video authors also get paid through endorsing companies directly in their videos, and Youtube are experimenting with various other payment schemes, but pretty much nobody gets paid because they put a video on Youtube, choose what fee they want per view, and have people pay that fee (plus whatever extra their ISP wants to tack on) to watch it -- that was the model proposed by Xanadu, not just for videos but for every document on the entire internet.
Youtube, as an entity, *don't* "respect copyright", they respect the legal departments of some large media companies, and have a system that goes above and beyond copyright law in order to placate these companies, and that's about as far as they go. Youtube are unable to technologically enforce copyright law in its full nuance, and so they don't. Xanadu would have faced the same problems, like how do you stop someone from re-typing a document instead of transcluding it? How does Youtube stop a determined video-copier from flipping, re-colouring, transforming audio on ilicitly copied videos so their automated system can't detect it's a copy? Xanadu would have the same cat-and-mouse game.
Also, how could you *stop* someone getting paid when you make fair use of their e.g. hate-speech text in order to critique it? Many people copy text from hate-sites like the Daily Mail instead of linking, so they're not rewarded for their hate speech with ad impressions (or Xanadu access fees). They then rebut what those sites say. Would Xanadu try to combat this and enforce transclusion/attribution? Would that have a chilling effect on criticism? Copyright law lets you quote what is necessary (not necessarily the entire document) in order to criticise it, without requiring permission from or payment to the person you're quoting. What "is necessary" is only decidable by a judge looking at all the evidence, there is no hard and fast rule that a computer can apply. If Xanadu applied a blanket requirement that *any* quoting paid the quotee, would that shut down human discourse as people who oppose what's said are unable to quote it in their rebuttal out of principle?
This is why law and copyright policy are best enforced by humans in courts rather than auto-enforced by software, which is why we should be glad Xanadu never succeeded. | null | 0 | 1491391840 | False | 0 | dfuw38f | t3_63e1ws | null | null | t1_dfuukeu | null | 1493813293 | 4 | t5_2fwo | null | null | null |

In Elm, you don't really need source maps. Debugging compiled Elm code very very rarely requires you to look at any of the JS. One of the benefits of no runtime exceptions. If you are trying to debug Elm by using Javascript techniques, you're going to have a bad time. Elm is not just a compile-to-JS language, it is quite different.

null | hideouspete | null | To use the gun analogy: nobody is arguing whether the manufacture of a gun or a gun itself is legal. Anybody can make a gun (in the US). It is the sale and how you sell it which is highly regulated and what makes you legally culpable.

null | rawb0t | null | This thread is frustrating the hell out of me. Most of you likely aren't members of HackForums so let me lay some things out for you:
>"What about TeamViewer and LogMeIn? Those are RA tools, too!"
The difference is that TV and LMI don't hide their processes. They don't hide their installation procedures. They don't have features for stealing the users' (or in Nanocore's case, the victims') passwords or using their systems to perform DDOS attacks. They don't have a feature to disable the webcam light so that perverts can spy on their victims without the victims knowing.
>"The article says he disabled licenses where he found the user to be using it unlawfully!"
Yes, but not at first. He only started doing that *after* one of his competitors got in a world of trouble. It's literally just him backpedaling and trying to cover his ass. That's also why he ended up selling his project away.
>"Guns, knives, etc!"
