> isn't what I would call "taking this hard stance on antitrust" I guess by hard stance, I more meant any stance at all, instead of simply bowing to threats by multinational corporations. It's very refreshing.

I'm sorta glad the EU is taking this hard stance on antitrust, and actually following up on a lot of these violations. Side-note: As a Dane, so weird seeing Margrethe Vestager so prolific in this, used to seeing her as one of the usual

Would much rather have them investigate first, so you can't just abuse spam reports to shut down people's servers.

That got me curious, are you saying you don't have a passport because you're Egyptian, or was that just an additional piece of information separate from the passport? (Don't know if I'm missing some international news&#x

Then that would more be a aspect of social expectations, no? Perhaps I've read to much malice into the word "systemic bias", as if people were actively working against someone doing the particular thing there is bias against,

In Denmark for example, which by all accounts is a first world country, the majority of educated people are actually women[2], and there is absolutely nothing that prevents anyone from any social class or gender to take an education (it&#x2

Flow/TypeScript is not really near the level of the other type systems, so I wouldn't really say that—it is a nice first step though, one that you can do on an already established code base.

Starting from fresh, I would honestly recommend PureScript or Elm (and eventually Haskell/GHCJS when that moves to WASM). The benefit you get from the amazing type systems and compilers these have, is worth so much when it comes to ref

while it might to some seem slightly controversial, it would make more sense to argue against it instead of just down voting. Would you disagree if people from the US did not need to pass the bar to call themselves lawyers, or the equivalen

It's an unfortunate situation honestly, because it pollutes the term "engineer" (at least for Europeans), when it's being conflated with "I just know how to code".

If you ever look into the reason Pewdiepie got affected, it’s a massively disgusting play of how massive media outlets can twist a narrative by editing videos out of context together and put pressure on a platform to respond to a blatantly

For people that don’t follow the YouTube community, YT has a terrible track record of not treating creators equally, and demonetizing a ton of creators for little to no reason, while some of their other creators, namely Jake and Logan Paul

Probably reflects the ones the author has most used, I mean, I wouldn't start recommending stuff I've never touched either. I imagine PRs could fill out more, like e.g. adding Haskell, Erlang etc etc.

Sure it's easy to take a cab. What's more tricky, is not getting scammed. E.g. in Vietnam you'll be looking about various internet sources on which taxi companies are probably not gonna scam you. In France, I had some friends

A commenter on /r/haskell[0] noted that there is actually a library that mimics Go Channels a bit closer, called GoChan[1]. That said, I think `async` is the idiomatic choice, so it probably makes more sense to keep it. [0] https

`+-` here is an entirely new operator though. The shuffling of arguments might look a bit weird though, it could also be written (+-) x y = (x + x) - (y + y) Symbol operators are automatically infix though, and you can make them no

The error messages should have improved a bit with GHC 8.2[0], you might wanna check that out if you aren't already using it. For stack that'll mean using the nightlies though (e.g. `resolver: nightly-2017-12-09`). [0] https:&#
