Can you use #vectordatabases for recommender systems? I think so! Here I wrote about the details of our first attempt: dev.to/arian/vector-d… #embeddings

Bring `with` back you cowards

@b0rk Also when explaining when speaking or telling a story

how I write: highlight the main ideas

@andrestaltz At university we used @spoofax which is a Programming Language Workbench, basically DSLs for creating compilers.

There should be a DSL for writing compilers and transpilers. A simple compiler for a simple language is easy, but nowadays people expect all sorts of modern features like error highlighting, advanced error reports, compiler server, code formatting. And that's hard!

I’m pleased to present the flame-bait sequel to my previous blog post: “No, dynamic type systems are not inherently more open.” (Please send me your hatemail at your earliest convenience.) lexi-lambda.github.io/blog/2020/01/1…

We're at @Symbaloo are hiring a new @kotlin or Java Software developer to help develop our Spring backend. 👀 linkedin.com/jobs/view/1690… 🇳🇱 Delft

@matheusfrndes Elm json decoders help with this! First they're annoying, but then they fix this as you kondof define a parser for the expected json data.

Reminder that types alone won't save you

@WickyNilliams @dan_abramov Stuff from/based on @jetbrains_mps

@dan_abramov Yes we need IDEs/languages operating at the AST level. Isomorf was an interesting project - it had full structural editing, evaluation of code in-place, and switchable syntax (since it's a projection of the AST) blog.isomorf.io/what-is-isomor…

Excited about the GitHub npm registry, but also concerned. Say you publish @foo/bar only to GitHub and it becomes popular, then someone else publishes @foo/bar on npm copying the README from GitHub but containing malicious code. Very easy to accidentally install from npm. 🤔

Before publishing my Kotlin library to Maven Central I had to claim a namespace through a Jira ticket 🤯 That's probably one reason why npm has so much more published packages.

I decided to collect some of the thoughts on parsing vs. validation I was reflecting on about a month ago into a new blog post: lexi-lambda.github.io/blog/2019/11/0…

@bradleymeck Actually MooTools did this: new (new Class({...})) Was possible, where instances of `Class` were classes before JS had `class`. Usually you'd do `var X = new Class({...})`

fun with JS ? nested dynamic class construction: let y = new new X; If you find yourself doing this, there are many questions I have to ask you.

New @elmlang release today! ✨ 0.19.1 ✨ Faster builds than ever, but most excited about the new syntax errors! Hoping they will help folks get past The Syntax Cliff. elm-lang.org/news/the-synta…
