Is there some single page that keeps a running status of the various LLVM's and the software to make them runnable on consumer hardware?

Why the downvotes?

The OCaml Software Foundation recently gave the author a grant to update the code in the book to the latest release of OCaml, 4.14, and release the new version of it online in HTML and PDF versions.

Ziglings are indeed excellent. Try them if you haven't.

I heard an Italian doctor on the news yesterday saying they were using CPAP machines on (non-ICU?) CV patients in wards.

The OCaml story for concurrency is good, maybe you were thinking of parallelism? Support there is ongoing in the 'multicore' project.

For concurrency, LWT and Async are both mature and used in production.

There may not be that many people doing web development in OCaml directly (Reason ML may be changing this) but it is do-able. Read 'A Lightweight OCaml Webapp Tutorial' - https://shonfeder.gitlab.io/ocaml_webapp/ for a up to date example of an OCaml web stack.

Reason uses the OCaml to Javascript compiler Bucklescript to make OCaml more accessible for web programming. Listen to the podcast 'Reason Town' - https://player.fm/series/reason-town to hear professionals talking about their experience with it.

Can you explain why the T490 is a regression? Thanks

The same is true of OCaml.

On this subject, has anyone taken this (https://www.coursera.org/learn/discrete-mathematics) MOOC on the same subject?

Thoughts?

1. To understand Clojure stacktraces you should read https://8thlight.com/blog/connor-mendenhall/2014/09/12/cloju.... Although I agree the lengthy huge Java dump when crashing is pretty awful, you can ignore most of it.

3. I would recommend you look into Parinfer - https://shaunlebron.github.io/parinfer/. You can manage scopes with levels of indentation, rather than having to move parens around. It works with most major editors, including Emacs.

For the first Make Electronics book there are kits available on eBay containing all or most of the parts to complete the exercises in the book.

You can disagree without calling him names.

Good article but that enormous sidebar is obnoxious...

How does concurrency in OCaml compare to Go, Clojure, Rust, etc?

Thanks

Doesn't Ireland have a graduated tax system?

Make a promo video and put it on the play store page.

Could you explain what you mean by a reasonable text editor? Thanks

After watching the video I see the higher DPI on the Voyage may make it a better device for viewing longer code samples on.

£329/339 is too expensive for the entry level FDX.

They could have sold millions at £200.

Calibre converts epubs perfectly to Amazon's format, mobi.

The developer has been helpful enough on the couple of times I have filed a bug.

I'm not sure why people hate the UI. The configuration UI is pretty bad, but I rarely go need to go there and the main screen works perfectly for me.

For code it's ok for snippets and fairly small examples but I'd use a tablet if possible for longer examples or diagrams.

Get the Paperwhite.

You get the most important feature of the Vogage (the light - I leave it on all the time as reading on white is so much nicer than gray of the low end Kindle.) At the mid price point on your budget.

Totally agree with the OP.

I'm not upgrading my Paperwhite V2 at the new price, I likely would have at the same price.

I think what the OP is referring to is that the Voyage is really just the Paperwhite v3.

The just called it something else and raised the price excessively.

I find the Paperwhite responsive enough, version 2 anyway (I didn't buy V1.)

I'd buy the Paperwhite. I have one and it's great.

Apart from the resolution upgrade, the changes on the the Voyage seem a bit of disappointment to me to be honest.

The higher DPI should be an upgrade to the Paperwhite and the page turn buttons are unnecessary. I thought I missed them when I upgraded from a Kindle 3 to the Paperwhite but touching the screen became natural after using it for a short time. The flush bezel is nice but no big deal and I leave the light on my Paperwhite at 100% all the time, so I don't want it to 'Adapt'.

You don't need the light but it makes it a more pleasant experience to read.

Even when it's a sunny day the Paperwhite stays at full brightness because it makes it more natural to look at.
