Google, Meta and Amazon are still repeatedly reaching out.

Front end: TypeScript, Angular, Apollo, Material Back end: Scala, ZIO, zio-http, Pulsar, Keycloak, Postgres Hosting: Kubernetes on Digital Ocean, GitLab Pages Tools: Hugo, Twilio, Namecheap, Mailgun

It's odd to read about hiring freezes when they're both still actively recruiting.

Presumably also Nest and Fi.

I'm currently working on a project that uses both Typescript and Scala. The overlap in concepts is rather useful when switching contexts.

> it helps that you don't fall into the trap of "one IDE for all programming languages"

I don't see this as a trap at all. I use IntelliJ for practically everything, and switching languages frequently (currently between Typescript and Scala several times a day) has not been difficult. I get way more benefit from developing increased familiarity with my environment.

There's no magic. It works the same way any other domain does.

RISC OS Programmer's Reference Manual. It's very well laid out, clearly written and consistent. In fact, I even bought myself a copy all these years later to peruse for nostalgia.

Interesting. Is there no distance limit? I don't know how 5G works, but in 2G there was a limit of about 30km, since that's as much as the timing advance would allow for (sending the signal early so that it arrives in its timeslot despite the speed-of-light delay).

Why would that be true?

Maybe I'm missing something, but what's the point of posting this here? Anyone will already know it's back up before they see this post.

I don't think I've actually seen anyone refer to it as Lisplang.

This is true of everything that is named after something, and it wasn't really something people worried about until Go, which is interesting in itself.

I'm not talking about domain names. I'm talking about people referring to the language itself as, for example, Rustlang.

What's with people tacking "Lang" on to the end of language names? I can kind of understand it with Go, since Google didn't exactly come up with a very searchable name, but now I'm seeing it spread to other languages like Rust, and now here with Cell.
