@ManningBooks, @RandyAbernethy it would be much easier to read the code if explanations were inline comments. Instead of turning the page back and forth (or scrolling up and down online) people would be able to read it linearly without loosing the context
Why references instead?
I avoid dynamic languages like a plague but this #clojure talk is good at pointing at weaknesses of static types and I’m mesmerized by how the author’s way of thinking

@nipafx@twit_ktb@AccentoDev It seems more a question of balance. Most of the time people write simple code and put unnecessary comments (like those liners in the body). Low level code/languages will have more cases like this. An average dev doesn't work with code like this
Stumbled on a great speaker and his awesome talk about some cool concepts of #smalltalk#pharo not available in most languages
Great video for a lunch

Interesting that the list is very #functionalprogramming , even though #golang is not #fp it has channels https://t.co/nTZ0mQ8szv
Pssst! We know it is a delicate topic: source code formatting. We also think, the last word about how to do it well for Haskell hasn’t been said yet. Please check out “Ormolu: format Haskell Code like never before” and let us know what you think? https://t.co/531EG05D5S
Got an awesome deal from @audible_com today a bunch of credits for reduced price + 2 for 1 sale. Basically, I got $50+ worth of "Elon Musk" and "Hackers: Heroes of the Computer Revolution" for ~ $6

It's public now: @Stripe is building a typechecker for #Ruby with emphasis on scalability and user-friendliness. Currently presenting it at #RubyKaigi with @nelhage and @ptarjan. Try it: https://t.co/uF06whah7N . See it at Tachibana room at #RubyKaigi2018
After @GitKraken failed basic #Git operation because of SSH configs let's see how new #sublimemerge https://t.co/oeMBm5EMLZ from creators of #sublimetext works
Working with #xml and #xslt, after a few hours with @intellijidea switched to this amazing #jsfiddle like tool from @joepjoosten which supports live mode evaluation 👍
