The new issues will be interesting. Now that I've seen the quality of the output and played with it a bit I'm already squinting at comments here and there. We're in for an even stranger internet.

A modern tech stack won't help that much, there are other issues. > Most subway services cannot significantly increase their frequencies during rush hours, except for the 1, G, J/Z, L, and M trains (the L service already is aut

Any time I want to get a side project actually done, I'll use Phoenix + Live View. It's effective and efficient (from both a dev perspective, a server resources perspective, and a client load speed perspective). You don't h

Pretty much what rrradical said. I haven't seen any articles around "writing code with only haskell 2010 vs GHC2021", but now that we have a baseline in the community things like that could be written. Actually that flag exi

Hard to say if it's gotten more popular (yet), but development speed has picked up and some longstanding things have been fixed. A lot of things in the ecosystem have improved as well. It feels like it's all moving again, and to

It's pretty nice when you're paying off your mortgage instead of your landlords.

This seems to imply that food waste will be lessened. Instead, prices will simply be raised, until we hit some unsustainable point and there is no extra food to waste. Lessening food waste now would require planning for the future and cha

The article says, "The parents of baby boomers, the oldest generation alive today, were savers, having learned in the lean times of war and the Great Depression to treasure what they owned."

Destroying the entirety of Manhattan beneath 80th st or so, along with a significant part of Manhattan-facing Brooklyn and Hoboken shorelines, with a single reasonably placed bomb is actually about as destructive as I imagined (following th

Yep, and that is miyazaki's feelings as well. "We don't want to include a difficulty selection because we want to bring everyone to the same level of discussion and the same level of enjoyment," Miyazaki said. "So w

Any word on it having diopter adjustment? It'd be nice to be able to wear this without glasses.

It's not removed, read what they wrote: > This issue has been fixed with commit 84bde8: Running man with man -w will no longer trigger this easter egg. Running man with no arguments still triggers it. I also must have missed the pa

We've come around to something like the "imperative shell, functional core" pattern. All the business logic is purely functional (so no database calls or side effects), and any data needs are done as close to the edge of the

I think the split happened before Reagan. About the closest we got to raising the standard of US society even higher was Roosevelt's second bill of rights speech in 1944: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Second_Bill_

It sure seems that way, across all the youtube farming channels I watch, one thing that ties them together is they do not like going into the silo and do consider it unsafe. I have no idea what OP is talking about besides their imagination

If anything, a government might even like a public ledger of all transactions. Sure, you can sell in person, and then it's about as secretive as cash.

Simon Peyton Jones, one of the creators of Haskell, has been on that point for awhile too ( https://www.slideshare.net/kfrdbs/peyton-jones ). I think it's his main area of research working at Microsoft actually.

It is sort of funny to say, "America has never been about quality," while referencing a poem about immigrants who moved here for a better quality of life. I think you've missed something rather obvious.

This seems like an underappreciated point, some of my coworkers have mentioned how much it sucks to have their main method of contact with family back in China stripped from them.

It's not targeted towards that. It's a 30 year old research language that is still ahead, and I don't really see a reason why it should change in any way towards businesses. If anything, it should lean more into research to

I'm waiting for sleeping in hammocks to catch on here. Soon, there'll be an article espousing easy summer sleeping and the more vertical position making for easier breathing. I do sleep in one but it'll be funny to see.

Nope, especially seeing the current usage / data size I think it's perfectly fine to hang around forever. I may eventually implement something to clean up data with no reads for > 1 month, but again so far it looks fine to lea
