If you've got really top notch low level skills then maybe something in HFT financial space.

With games as a service and increasing desire to de-risk large projects I'd be a little wary of the grass is greener. There might be something a kin to old school hacking in the indie domain.

Oh Peter was definitely selling his new book at the time, but his mannerism came across as quite manic. I actually bought one of Peter's books and found it quite enlightening at the time, but then found out that some of it didn't

I think IRC was a big part of community knowledge and also such a hot spot for weird inspiration. I can attribute my picking up of Common Lisp and ultimately getting a job in Australia from the UK to an off the cuff comment by someone in IR

Peter has such an obvious bias, and desire to sell his books. He looked positively unhinged on the Joe Rogan podcast. The over simplification of the Ukrainian situation is unreal, it's like we all collectively forgot the last 8-9 years

That's not as good as it first looks, it was well understood by the turn of 20th century that there was a strong correlation between smoking and disease, it took the better part of a century to bring this to the fore. Imagine how preva

It can never work, it just never has and smarter people than us have tried. Democracy will be captured and corrupted like it already has, by an oligarchic elite. It happened to the Greeks, it happened to the Romans and it's happened to

Share but backs were a simple, low risk way to inflate the share price and so every major company was spending cash pushing the price higher. Lay offs were worth a few percentage points on the share price. So everyone had an incentive to ta

Boost for who though? if it works out there'll be more for less. Wages won't increase, the number of jobs won't increase the price of assets will inflate. None of these are good things for 99% of us.

Still not telling the good side then? We're talking global control here so displacement is not that far fetched.

Really, ok what is the good part of plus 4.5 degrees? Is it all bad or has no one actually considered both sides.

My thought exactly, and compounded that we will now have far less practiced coders as they all generate the banal they should be learning with.

Do you even play. I enjoy playing guitar, have had no meaningful tuition, and while occassionally wonder what it would be like to perform live have no realistic expectation of doing so. The machines are taking nothing. You may allow someone

There is no 'or' for a given file, it is declaratively there or it is not. The 'or' semantics are part of your language environment not the toml file.

by Guthur 3y ago
Key not being present is no value, key present has value, empty string or otherwise, seems simple enough. You can add advanced semantics on load, the file does nothing by itself after all.

by Guthur 3y ago
Seems beyond the simplicity TOML was aiming for. Absence is absence in the file, in your programming language you can wrap in whatever trickier you like or is relevant.

Well that would be null right? an absence of the thing.

Over the past 3+ years we seemed to be on one hyper sensational train after another, mrna was transforming medicine and making every other vaccine obsolete, Ukraine was defeating a super power in 3 months, now AI is taking over every job on

I doubt it's expected to be holistic, and there's not much point tariffing a commodity you don't have a viable alternative locally such as oil; Autarky is unlikely to viable in the long run. Though chemical fertilizer is like

Free market is the reason you need the subsidies, otherwise import tariffs. European production costs around labour, regulations etc would be drastically undercut by foreign low cost markets and you would lose food sovereignty due to foreig

It's amazing how in practice it's not really a big deal. I've worked on many dynamically types systems and have no problems thinking in terms of compile time, run time, and macro expansion if you're so lucky, but some pe
