@mafintosh asks: "Does anyone have a good code example of when to use setImmediate instead of nextTick?"

https://twitter.com/mafintosh/status/624590818125352960

The answer is "generally anywhere outside of core".

process.nextTick is barely asynchronous. Flow-wise it is asynchronous, but it will trigger before any other asynchronous events can (timers, io, etc.) and thus can starve the event loop.

In this script I show a starved event loop where I just synchronously block, use nextTick and setImmediate

What is the appeal of dynamically-typed languages?

Kris Nuttycombe asks:

I genuinely wish I understood the appeal of unityped languages better. Can someone who really knows both well-typed and unityped explain?

I think the terms well-typed and unityped are a bit of question-begging here (you might as well say good-typed versus bad-typed), so instead I will say statically-typed and dynamically-typed.

I'm going to approach this article using Scala to stand-in for static typing and Python for dynamic typing. I feel like I am credibly proficient both languages: I don't currently write a lot of Python, but I still have affection for the language, and have probably written hundreds of thousands of lines of Python code over the years.

This requires the latest version of apktool.

apktool d $APK_PATH -o $OUTPUT_FOLDER

# Open the apktool.yml text file
# Alter the versionCode and versionName entries

# now rebuild!

Rust is the first language that has emerged in the past few years that solves enough of my problems that it would be worth not only learning & teaching an entirely new language, but also sacrificing the maturity of the language ecosystems I’ve become accustomed to.

I highly suggest you read the "Guide" provided by the language developers or this won't make much sense. These are just some of my thoughts and are intended to highlight particular things that stand out to me. I am just a practitioner and not an expert in any of these languages, so I have probably made some incorrect assumptions and out-of-date assertions. Bare with me.

Rust feels like the first time momentum has gained behind a true systems programming language that uses modern PL design techniques to prevent common errors when dealing with memory. It seems like others have previously either been too anemic to be worth adopting or too abstract to provide proper control. The type system and assignment semantics are designed specifically to preven
