I wrote both my master thesis and PhD on Hoare's Communicating Sequential Processes. I really enjoyed it's simplicity, expandability, and was always amazed that it inspired and influenced language constructs in Go, Erlang, occam and the likes.

One of the greats. Invented quicksort and concurrent sequential processes. I always looked up to him because he also seemed very humble.

They were never concurrent, they were communicating. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Communicating_sequential_proce...

With or without VAT? The USD price is without VAT.
madsohm · 9 days ago
The DKK5499 is with VAT. If I enter a San Francisco zip code, it still only comes out to about USD654.

Ugh. Why is is so much more expensive in Denmark? Here it's DKK5499 for the 256 GB version. That's USD857.

Cool

What are those commit messages?

madsohm · 4 months ago
AI slop - or worse, somebody trying to hide something.

Since using `def` to create a method returns a symbol with the method name, you can do something like this too:

  memoize def expensive_calculation(arg)
    @calculation_count += 1
    arg * 2
  end, ttl: 10, max_size: 2

  memoize def nil_returning_method
    @calculation_count += 1
    nil
  end

levels.fyi has a job board with a "Fully remote" filter, might be worth checking out.
madsohm · a year ago
I find that a lot of their "fully remote" positions are only remote if you live in the US.
