Why should we trust it this time?
nilved··on Rust: A Scala Engineer's Perspective
> Lisp, the granddaddy of all FP languages, is dynamically typed.

Lisp is a multi-paradigm language of which FP is one of them. You're referring to Standard ML or Haskell and that should explain why people conflate FP with static typing.

nilved··on Pinboard Acquires Delicious
This is the greatest thing I've read in a while.
nilved··on MoonScript, a programmer friendly language that compiles to Lua
Lua is a great language and MoonScript improves on it even further. I used MoonScript to write a load balancer with OpenResty recently, and World of Warcraft interface code six years ago. :)
nilved··on Ask HN: Ex-Founder. Should I take lowball buyout offer?
This is bad advice.

Get real.
nilved··on PostmarketOS: Aiming for a 10 year life-cycle for smartphones
This is a pretty cool idea. I think we really need something like this.
nilved··on Chrome Won
They're getting rid of extensions and replacing them with Web extensions.
nilved··on Florida GOP consultant admits he worked with Guccifer 2.0, analyzing hacked data
I didn't say there was a legal obligation. Clearly we are in agreement that Trump is in the wrong here. We can say Trump should release his tax returns without requiring them or any other citizen to do so.

You could if I was running for President. What a dumb thing to say.

> Firefox took marketshare from IE when that was impossible. It could do it again with Chrome, if things change a bit.

Maybe, but they're getting rid of extensions instead, so they're effectively committing suicide.

nilved··on It's Never Too Early to Fire
From the last couple paragraphs this reads like a16z is still mad over getting fired years ago. They should know that being fired is a traumatic experience, and not use this as justification for their future carelessness. Two wrongs don't make a right.
nilved··on Imzy is shutting down
Actually it is the platform.
nilved··on New Surface Pro
Your game needs some serious work. Maybe if your developers had 4 GB RAM on their computers the constraint would benefit them.
nilved··on New Surface Pro
Are you saying that 16 GB isn't enough?
nilved··on The increased use of PowerShell in attacks [pdf]
I'll the first to admit that bash sucks, but the only thing you mentioned that is part of bash is `2>&1`.

Good lord, Web people, stop it. You are embarrassing yourselves. We already have standards and you need to stop recreating everything in JavaScript.

You misread their comment
nilved··on Why is React is taking over front-end development?
A lot of those posts are probably "Angular is dead" or "React is better than Angular"
nilved··on How Cloudflare Helps Serve Up Hate on the Web
Do you have any thoughts on my post rather than "no?"
nilved··on How Cloudflare Helps Serve Up Hate on the Web
I trust Tor more: https://blog.torproject.org/blog/trouble-cloudflare

You also mention Cloudflare hosting onion addresses, which is possibly the worst-case-scenario. Can you imagine Cloudbleed on Tor?

nilved··on How Cloudflare Helps Serve Up Hate on the Web
Cloudflare is one of the worst companies there is. They weaken the security of the web. They block Tor users from using many popular websites. They host websites that offer the same DDOS services they will charge you for protection from. The day Cloudflare dies, which should have been the day Cloudbleed was discovered, will become an annual holiday for the Internet.

This post is hilarious. You're the embodiment of HN.
nilved··on What Happens When You Send a Zero-Day to a Bank?
You're suggesting we send our exploits to the company that hacked Tor for the FBI? How much do they pay you?
nilved··on JavaScript once had a JSX-like syntax called E4X
I wonder what made JSX seem like a good idea then.
