I've rarely seen people interested in protecting the climate without caring about those points. Usually disinterest in one seems correlated with disinterest in the other (especially politically). Are you referring to specific initiativ

Sadly, that's what happens when everything is treated as a resource in exchange for short-term gains. Employees, good will, any morals and ethics - all will be sacrificed on the altar of shareholder value.

Sure, that's my point. There is nothing inherent in short term contracts that makes employees less invested - that's your fault as a company.

Given enough time and resources, you'd be right, this would be sufficient. But remember the beginning of the movie - they explicitly stated that every year fewer crops could be harvested, which meant that most people had to work in foo

I understand that you can define a restricted grammar that will stay parseable, as the embedded language would have to adapt to those rules. But that doesn't solve the question, as Typescript already has existing rules which overlap wi

Thanks for the response, but I'm aware of the basics. My question is pointed towards making language parsers resilient towards separately-evolving standards. How would you build a JS parser so that it correctly parses any new TS syntax

I don't know a lot about parser theory, and would love to learn more about ways to make parsing resilient in cases like this one. Simple cases like "ignore rest of line" make sense to me, but I'm unsure about "adver
