I don't think there are really enough details on the parent comment to judge it either way, but can't you at least see how weird it is that 'Women in STEM' is very accepted but a 'Men in STEM' program would nev

True, but aren't the math (and competitive programming) achievements a bit different? They're specific models heavily RL'd on competition math problems. Obviously still ridiculously impressive, but if you haven't done co

I worked in Scala for a little bit and while it is mostly a fine language there are a couple huge problems; the big two off the top of my head are the return statement (legitimately the most wtf moment I've had learning a language???)

Realistically? No, not at all. The reason there are no toolchains for BASIC is because nobody uses BASIC (because it's not functional in our modern world), not the other way round.

I mean it doesn't seem like Canadians have any different attitude (judging by carbon footprint) and they have glaciers. The truth is nobody really cares about global warming, just their own comfort at this moment :/ It's just

Only mildly relevant, but I dualboot windows and arch on my xps and decided to disable the grub boot screen timer... Accidentally left my laptop in grub mode for a few hours and it was toasty

That's the entire problem though, isn't it? Now we'll never know. The one thing I can think of off the top of my head is some sort of magnetic connection similar to macbook chargers to prevent damage when the cord gets pulled

> But the push for daily learning-reflecting-etc is there. But this is a good thing; if I waste a day without learning or doing anything, I feel bad about myself. And I want to feel bad! Always pushing to improve myself has helped me imm

I much prefer Pascal typing because it 1. Allows type inference without a hacky 'auto' workaround like c++ and 2. Is less ambiguous parsing wise. I.e. when you read 'MyClass x', MyClass could be a variable (in which case

When I was first learning coding, git, etc. and had no clue how git worked I downloaded GitHub desktop and used that. It's true that I was much younger and less knowledgeable then so it's possible that's influencing me but ma

> I think it's the type of thing that the mere awareness of it counts a lot to counterweight the problem. I'm unfortunately not too optimistic about this. There are plenty of things that are bad for you that everyone is aware o

From what I've seen the majority of the deaths are either a. intentional or b. really not the trains fault. That's not to say it isn't horrible that it happens, but IMO the solution is train safety awareness (don't stop

I think the line is actually much blurrier than it might seem. Realistically everything is a remix of things people have done before; almost nothing is truly brand new. So why specifically are people allowed to build on humanity's past
