People usually understand that rules can have exceptions, and natural language is limited in its precision.

You're interpreting GP's comment in bad faith.

Yeah this is method chaining, and method chaining is not the same as piping.
276.
by Kinrany 2y ago
Okay, but _can_ you use it as your default shell? It's not much of a shell otherwise, is it?
277.
by Kinrany 2y ago
How come the pipe is a method call? Does this really allow composing programs?

"Modeling the real world" only makes sense when you're building a simulator of some kind. Another similar approach is building a "digital twin" of something that is happening in the real world. But very often the so

This is an example of wasting money, not value
283.
by Kinrany 2y ago
It's strictly more wasteful than redistributing money without doing anything
284.
by Kinrany 2y ago
Setting aside how often people actually do it, it's clearly possible to waste both money and value. You can buy lottery tickets, or you can buy things you don't need.

One explanation is the need to complete the objective compensating for age.

Should be easy to write a script that takes a branch and constructs a mirror branch with git blame output. Then compare storage space used.
287.
by Kinrany 2y ago
Precomputing git blame should take the same order of magnitude of storage as the repository itself. Same number of lines for each revision, same number of lines changed in every commit.

Sure, even PL/Rust is available. But what does the deployment pipeline look like, from version control to a live instance?

It'll make a comeback once stored procedures can be easily written in real programming languages using standard tools.

Configuration languages are just structured data, and programming languages also need to be able to express complex literal data. JSON is already explicitly designed as a ~subset of JavaScript. An equivalent of a JSON written as a JavaScrip

Supposedly it's a package manager as well, so if there's a package, you'd be able to use it without writing any code.
