ReasonML and ReScript are a (more or less the same) new syntax on top of OCaml. ReScript only targets JS, while ReasonML targets both JS and the native archs OCaml supports. Facebook and Bloomberg are using ReScript internally, afaik. Messe

hashmap's a collection type, record/struct is a product type (tuple is another product type), many miss the sum type (incl JSON) sadly. JS conflating the hashmap and record/struct is a big loss, probably fixed by TS. it does

Who needs TOML when we have this? Also this is really cool when you want to upgrade your config file to a script! It has comments! (looking at you JSON; pre-5 I know...)

Wish they picked Qt. Seems to be easier to create lightweight portable UIs with that, and the upgrade path is also a lot easier on the devs. Not here to start a flame war. And I know about https://apps.kde.org/karbon/

I think the good art in this game started with the idea: good tracks, 80s revival, arcade-style, ... The game itself in one we've seen before. But all art matches well (sounds, BGs, sprites, etc.) with concept!

Intellectuals in south asia are just great people. Good discussions, open minded attitude (not too closed off by culture and religion), and a general distrust of the state. Just my .02

Your static files still need a webserver. Maybe you do not need to write it, or configure it; but there is still one there. You probably just pay S3 or a CDN to do your web serving for you.

You need 2 servings of low-oxalate green leafs daily to consume enough Mg. If not possible to eat the greens, the next (IMHO) is supplementation.

There is no "left" in the US, not in mainstream politics anyway. The words needed to have a sensible political discussion are ill-defined and only add noise. I'm afraid it's beyond repair: we need a new vocab to discuss

How did dairy ever become a health food is beyond me. (lobby + tradition probably) The whole "calcium" argument is also totally debunked.

by cies 4y ago
How do you know? Dairy (especially high processed and in large quantities) is certainly a contributing factor.

Yes it contains (natural) growth hormones. And we (milk binging nations) wonder how we got so fat?!

Those impoverished kids you talk about are often lactose intolerant. Sure the benefits of the dairy nutrition may outweigh the problems of the intolerance.
