You don't have to chain callbacks, you can use monadic Future libraries. Look into "Future" for bucklescript, or "Lwt" for reason-native.

You are looking for "reason-language-server". You can download a VSCode extension with it from the VSCode "marketplace", and if you use a different editor like Vim you can use the language server with whatever vim langua

Unfortunately large portions of the US government operate outside of civilian oversight. (TSA, CBP, NSA) etc. At this point foreign governments should probably be advising their citizens to take a burner phone to the US.

yeah pgtrgm works really well for detecting typos or almost-matches.

Amazing news. Unfortunately, without HiDPI support, most Linux DEs other than Gnome and KDE have been unusable for years.

Fun fact: Broadcom is now actually a former HP spin-off spin- off (HP->Agilent->Avago), but is now worth more than Hewlett Packard Enterprise, HP Inc, Agilent and Keysight combined.

Agreed. This seems like one of the most obvious conclusions of research of all time. Why so you need to research an elephant? A simple visit to a local animal shelter would have probably sufficed.

What are you referring to? Linux never intentionally breaks userspace code.

If anyone is interested in early human development/the onset of civilization I highly recommend the book "Sapiens". Really compelling pop-science book if you are interested into that kind of thing.

Your original post started off with this sentence: "Except the bombardier issue had literally nothing to do with regulation and to claim it did is misleading".

Without speculating about political motivations, the Bombardier CSeries tariffs were imposed by two Federal regulatory agencies for "unfair competition/dumping". (US International Trade Commission, and the US department of Co

A major problem is that regulatory capture leads to less competition, yet the common solution proposed is "more regulation/government". The US federal government effectively forced Boeings 2nd biggest competition to shut down

I understand your sentiment. However, put yourself in the shoes of a manager. Who does he look to promote? Those who are already doing the job. It is annoying, but at least Square is codifing this so that the expectation is explicit.

You can donate to charities that directly purchase rainforest. Rainforesttrust.org is one. They can purchase an acre of land for around 10 dollars. Right now the main issue is that last year they only received 15 million in donations. Not n

It is no coincidence that private gun-ownership is effectively illegal in China, while in the US it is a secured right in the constitution.

In my opinion the worst thing about the Ocaml/ReasonML platform is that discovery of language features/syntax/functions is needlessly difficult. There is no Hoogle equivalent for OCaml. Module functors are powerful, but the t

Unfortunately I think it is hard to take a "Haskell is the best" article seriously with no comparison to Clojure or Ocaml. Personally I am skeptical that typeclasses + an expressive type system bring more benefits than i simple pa

You could look into Turtle graphics and Clojure. This is a modern take on "Logo" - a language designed for children, but the learnings can be applied directly to Clojure/Clojurescript. http://timothypratley.github.

How can the extended range be controlled by a software feature? For me it is seems deeply unethical to limit the how long a mechanical device can operate via software. Imagine a printer that had a software limit of only printing 5 pages at

The US is Taiwan's biggest supporter. The US could theoretically really flex some muscle here, since Taiwan essentially depends on the US for defense.

Look at teaching in the United States. All states require teacher licensing at public schools. However private schools do not and get better outcomes. Same thing with many unions for trades. I have yet to see any evidence a union electricia

An even better example is UL (Underwriters Laboratories), which directly tests products for safety.

Unlike Singapore, most cities in the world do not have their own border control. Lots of people commute in and out of San Francisco for work. Are you going to check if every vehicle entering the city is carrying a "legal" person?

No - Grocery outlet sells name brands at a discount, but you never know what will be there. Kind of like a Ross/Marshalls for food. Trader Joes only sells its own private label.
