on: Response to "Ruby Is Not a Serious Programming Language"
I feel the same. I think the reason is that GenAI has effectively abstracted away the tooling layer. Not perfectly, and not always efficiently, but in terms of going from requirements → workable outcome, it has removed much of the pain of choosing one developer experience over another.

I think they got their math wrong too: the binomial coefficient for (5 1) is 5, not 120.

I find your perspective interesting, but have the feeling that you are not thinking in systems (!). The sensory systems are perceptual systems, but they are subsystems of a larger "cognitive" system, and we cannot be sure that it exhibits the same logarithmic response behavior.

on: France experiencing worst drought on record
I actually wonder if humans lack a crucial adaptive advantage if they do not intuitively understand how systems work. But then it occurs to me that some ancient philosophies and religions emphasised the need to be in tune with the surrounding world.

on: Ask HN: Should I publish my research code?
Publish the code. At worst no one will look at it, at best you will draw more attention to your work and maybe get some good tips.

This. I hate to readjust my usual scrolling habit just because they think their unique scrolling friction is better.

I would love to say that Italy is not a racist country. But it is. Still, your words convey a deeper gap and racial segregation in the US.
I feel sorry you had borne all these wounds to your social identity, but I'm sure one day we will tackle the very roots of inequality and bigotry.

Yes, traditionally you need the 5% of error, or even 1%. Also the partial eta-squared is the ANOVA measure for the size of the effects studied, which happens to be very low too: 9%.

Indeed, but you can see that a bunch of Wordpress sites are obscure, ancient and insecure by default.

on: Why people think C++ is complicated?
That's the reason Scala doesn't guarantee backwards compatibility for major releases. Of course, there is always someone who complaints about it not being enterprise ready.
