the authors cite Matija Pretnar who has an introduction on [algebraic effects]( http://www.eff-lang.org/handlers-tutorial.pdf ). I'm reading through it now as I have no idea what is going on :)

that's very uncharitable. This person has a PhD in mathematics and has done some studying in the field. This is their own personal opinion of the matter after a firsthand experience.

The ID is a randomly generated 4 byte integer. This is obviously not identifying for law enforcement. I don't know about the certificates if they could be identifying but I'm not seeing a way to track down an owner or operator fro

It seems as anonymous as current highway usage and vision. You can see a car while they are within eye-sight. In this proposal, your car can receive data about the other car while they are within about 300m. Once gone they are gone. I'

I think you've got your causation backwards; this is what will allow for widespread autonomous adoption. This proposal is making sure that all cars are speaking the same language and are talking to each other. I look at this as the Fed

You seem surprised, but this is an indicator that you're not reading a good article. They are covering something and don't even accurately describe the proposal by NHTSA. But thankfully they link to the proposal itself. So here&#x

but you're not passing it the argument '(1 2). Lisps are usually (always?) strict evaluation, so the form `(list 1 2)` or `(quote (1 2))` would return the form (1 2). First applied to this form would return 1. The specification is

these suits are filed in federal district courts as far as I can tell. State law won't be controlling on the issues there.

I'm not sure that your point makes sense. If Microsoft insists on backwards compatibility, then you _can_ upgrade with "no worries". This policy seems to encourage people to upgrade as the new OS will honor the old mechanisms

You're advocating for the flight crew to instruct a passenger to relinquish their seat after they have already sat in it so that a first class customer could have it? I think it's safe to say that that should be an action of last

They bumped a rich guy in this instance. I'm not sure how this can amount to a "frontal assault on human dignity" by asking a dude to relinquish his seat when there's a conflict. They had too many people in first class a

I believe this is correct. If there is a civil argument, it can be heard in an appropriate venue. But once the owner/operator of an FAA regulated aircraft has asked you to leave you no longer have any recourse and the word of the airpl

I think you missed the point of the post you are responding to. That person understands the value of the bug, and is just pointing out that Rust runs with unchecked math in production and would therefore be just as vulnerable in production.

that documentation is insufficient to describe what integer 1.5 rounds to. There are two equidistant integers. So what do you expect in this case and what does it do, and how could you expect it to do one or the other in this case based on
