That doesn't address the point I'm making. Which is that if the universe can give rise to life, it's more likely to have multiple instances of it than for it to be exactly one. In the same way that it takes more effort to ens

Selection bias notwithstanding, we exist, which means life evolved at least once. If the universe can give rise to life it would be extremely odd that it did so exactly once.

Why not? We know of one occurrence of intelligent life. It would be pretty weird if it happened exactly once and no more

Aliens don't exist? You seem very certain of that

It doesn't for me :/ I think it's possible that I've gone through this flow before and accepted a slightly cheaper offer to keep me as a customer. I wonder if that permanently removes such offers from appearing again?

I can't work out how to change my plan. The "manage plan" page only has the option to cancel my plan. There doesn't seem anywhere on the website where I can change my plan, only to buy new ones

I don't remember subscribing for a year at a time. I almost always subscribe to things on a monthly basis, and the money certainly comes out of my account on a monthly basis

Do you think Pixelbooks and Fuschia haven't been announced? How, pray tell, do you know about it then?

Because they'll burn through even the tiny bit of trust they have remaining?

Sounded like you were disagreeing with me on that when you said > but it never seems to make it to the mainstream

by arrow7000 4y ago
What you're describing is literally FP ideas and abstractions going mainstream
83.
by arrow7000 4y ago
Not all of these are the same. Since when is FP a fad? Would you say that structured programming is a fad? Is garbage collection?

Is anyone actually taking this proposal seriously? It's just not going to happen, and thank god for that because it would become the slum to end all slums in no time
