Thanks! I've been writing quite a lot of rust lately but have been mostly silo'd to my own so i'll definitely read through and see how wildy un-idiomatic my code is. Even just scanning through it I saw `Avoid matching Option

You are absolutely right minority or not. I actively avoid reddit because the majority of users there. The fact we're seeing government agencies start treading into using GPT models is frightening. We could find ourselves in a tragic c

I assumed with Darker being capitalized it was a title. Perhaps the NYTimes editors are no longer native english speakers?

Thank you, I just spent 5 minutes trying to find the book anywhere on line and was starting to feel a bit nuts.

Feel silly but I didn't know what Darker America was. Maybe i'm in the minority but The Road, No Country for Old Men and Blood Meridian seem to be massively more popular so it seems a bit odd for the title to mention what I percei

Vice doing drugs and writing blogs for young adults is not akin to gonzo journalism.

imo using your language of choice as an html templating engine that serves your "static" files is the best choice - you can essentially be left with editign css/js and html files but if you have some neat feature you want to

I think the case is getting the attention because it's not just some one spouting off online, it's a lawyer bumping into the legal system with false information that would otherwise be a massive legal no-no and they are trying to

So the thing holding back California is that they don't get enough taxes? There must be something more nuanced i'm missing, but it almost feels like a comedy sketch thinking of a California college professor explaining to people t

Re-shoring manufacturing in the US to eliminate the environmental impact of china/india and the shipping industry is one I've personally heard to reduce our environmental impact from conservative Americans.

proportionally, sure, but there are a lot of cities you can live without owning a car in the united states. Just about every metropolitan area and nearly any city over 150k people on the west coast seem to be navigable by at most a bike.

There are a ton of pedestrian friendly cities in the US. Is it less viable/desirable to move to a new town than it is to force poor people back onto the bus?

It will end in the same way Cash4Clunkers did in the US: Poorly and hardly trying to hide the fact it's a government subsidy for the automotive industry at the expense of poor and middle class.

I actually don't agree about the point you make about american politics. I think the left wing "solutions" are broadcasted on entertainment and media channels a lot louder where as the right wing "solutions" are gen

"3rd rail" probably because it's a half joke/half warning about the subways in NYC being electrified on the 3rd rail and not to be a jerk and piss in public.

So if non-citizens are entitled to warrants after entering a country illegally, how does this fare to the warrant-less five-eyes surveillance against non-citizens that have not committed any crimes?

People should be actively contacting their legislatures to ensure that we don't have these regulations take hold. They are absolutely preying on peoples fear to drive regulatory capture using modern moral panic.

React is really good for helping create giant SPA apps for the web. Unfortunately 99% of things using react aren't or shouldn't be SPA apps and now otherwise trivial applications are orders of magnitude more complex in their imple

There are plenty of people who move and live in puerto rico for all, some or more of the reasons you listed. None of which detracts from the fact that puerto rico is full of people with more than enough education and technical knowhow to bu

You just needed a few cats and some chickens :D I live outside the metro area and there are definitely 4x4 only areas as far as transportation and it becomes quite rural pretty quick in the hills. Not to mention the chupacabra.

Puerto Rico is amazing in a million ways... Butttt, there is a lot of government corruption and misallocation of funds for infrastructure among other things. There is a burgeoning tech scene and a lot of well educated folks here to do the h

There should be zero legal requirement to do so - I just meant to say there is a lot of low hanging accessibility fruit that doesn't require a large amount of time and money to implement that will give everyone using a computer a bette
