I had an identical experience to you, however Fibro is diagnosis of exclusion. When the doctor doesn't know what else to do, and you match the symptoms... Boom, Fibro. I think that hanlon's razor applies: "Never attribute to

There must be some miscommunication here. Gabapentin and Pregabalin are both used successfully for SFN and are first line treatment options. For severe cases, things like mexiletine can be used if you're willing to tolerate the side ef

Fibromyalgia And idiopathic disease are not terms for "go away". They mean "I've tried what I can think of and theres no further testing we can recommend" Notably, a positive punch biopsy for small fiber neuropathy

I wasn't saying prolog was mostly functionally pure, I was suggesting a (mostly) functional pure language as a 4th choice. Something like Haskell.

I read the article, but I don't see if/where there is responsibility given for the checklist(s). Most QA systems have a source of responsibility and multiple levels of review. I wonder what would happen if there was a QA team (wit

A REPL allows you to work in real-time with the system as it's written. It's nothing like unit testing. It's like running around in the system able to poke-prod things as you go. Particularly important is that it doesn't

No? Most all of my friends are graphics pros, and they largely prefer working on their laptop when possible. My little hobby circle is audio, and the touchbar is almost universally loved there too.

What do transients have to do with ownership? They are simply a way to gain new performance characteristics from an existing data structure.

> cobble it all together yourself and then hope they remain maintained going forward That is one benefit of deps.end over lein... deps.edn is language supported, lein is third party.

The problem is that it gets read as a false dilemma. Talking about rich people and saying "you don't have to be rich to..." is like walking into a room of black people and saying "You don't have to be white to...&qu

I've had this argument with various people many times. Until your, and your offspring's, survival as a living human revolves around working 16 hour days to barely hold it together... it's almost impossible to understand. Poor

I see no mention of the bug where mail.app will take accounts offline randomly in 10.14.4. Apple said this was being addressed. Extremely annoying problem. Hope it is missing from the changelog.

Your comment seems rather contradictory with "who really cares." soon followed by "also this is a HUGE reason for". If nobody cares, why would it be a reason for supporting anything?

It would seem that in the case of interrogation, it would be best for a 'good' person to do the job to reduce the number of false-positives? Or for that matter the idea that a "good" person will do less harm in a "b

As an extension to this, I'd like to clarify on the part where I mentioned that I lost real life friends. Someone online went out of their way to 'dox' me (in the early 90s no less!) and contact everyone they could that may k

This hits close to home to me. I am disabled now (but I still work, of course!), but I wasn't then. However I spent 10000s of hours on an online MUD called Godwars Apocalypse. I spent nearly all of my time helping people, finding and e

The issue with understanding how to use a function and having difficulty with the docstring is: I assume my knowledge is fallible, and that the docstring is the de facto source of information for that function. If my knowledge clashes with

Yes, I have done both. Thank you for your tireless work on improving Clojure and the surrounding ecosystem.

I don't think that anyone believes that it's an easy problem to solve, but it IS a problem. I've been Clojuring since 1.0, contributed 100s of examples to Clojure docs websites, and I still don't understand some of the .

Clojure 1.10 targeted the #1 most irritating and requested fix to Clojure: Error messages. It's not exciting if you're not a Clojurist, but if you are then 1.10 was one of the coolest releases recently. It doesn't make for th

It's not new and exciting anymore. Same reason you don't hear about Haskell or nearly as much about Rust despite them both being conceptually exciting projects. Hype can be trending, while the underlying thing being hyped, is stab

This has a very different impact on me, since I enjoy experiencing taking apart and putting back and restoring and playing etc... vintage musical instruments in my spare time. It never gets old. There is no real reason to sell one because e

In some places (southern US), freezing temperatures are abnormal and can cause damage to crops (livelihoods), property, cause significant physical discomfort and potentially death (homeless). The US is a really big place. Some of us go for

The new error messages are fantastic. Clojure just went from one of the most annoying languages to debug to mid-top tier. More complex things still present you with overly complex errors, but with some painless repl usage it's way easi
