Generic interfaces

news.ycombinator.com Axel Wagner 2025-08-06 16:56:48

Generic interfaces Axel Wagner 7 July 2025 There is an idea that is not obvious until you hear about it for the first time: as interfaces are types themselves, they too can have type parameters. This idea proves to be surprisingly powerful when it comes to expressing constraints on generic functions and types. In this post, we’ll demonstrate it, by discussing the use of interfaces with type parameters in a couple of common scenarios. A simple tree set As a motivating example, assume we need

The most otherworldly, mysterious forms of lightning on Earth

news.ycombinator.com Unknown 2025-08-06 13:49:31

Our atmosphere is like one big electrical circuit: Thunderstorms are the batteries that charge it up, and lightning is the current flowing through it. On the ground we see evidence of this circuit when lightning cracks and strikes the ground, or when it lights up deep inside a thundercloud, but high above the clouds lies a secret electrical zoo full of sprites, elves, and jets. These fantastical terms refer to light displays called transient luminous events or TLEs that occur in Earth’s upper a

Verizon’s request to lock phones supported by police, opposed by users

With Verizon seeking permission to lock phones to its network for six months or longer instead of the current 60 days, a coalition of advocacy groups yesterday urged the Federal Communications Commission to reject the cellular carrier's petition. "Phone locking distorts market competition, raises switching costs, and contributes to unnecessary e-waste," the groups said in a filing.

Though there’s still no official release date, Dune fans have long assumed director Denis Villeneuve is readying production on the third film in the sci-fi series.

Back in 1929, archaeologists unearthed several human skeletons (seven adults and three children) while excavating Skuhl Cave just south of Haifa, Israel. Dating back 140,000 years to the end of the Middle Pleistocene, most were classified as early Homo sapiens. But one skeleton was that of a child, between the age of 3 and 5 years old whose features seemed to show a mix of early human and Neanderthal characteristics.
