In general the people making appeals to freedom of speech as a traditionally held cultural value are the same ones who not long ago espoused that freedom of speech does not mean freedom from consequences. It was a bad idea then, it’s a bad

Given now that EU and Australia have decided that free speech is incompatible with public order (hecklers veto), what are these fabled other places left that do have free speech? While I’m sure they’d be free to criticize Israel in their ho

'async' is not a keyword in F#, it's a builder instance no different to the ones that you can create. It's just built in to the standard library. The return statement is only required if you want to return something form

Your criticism is rather incoherent and it is difficult for me to make sense of it. You don't even have to use the computation block for that and can use the built in functions as I mentioned earlier and gave 3 examples of. You're

Are you saying you prefer Ocaml to F# or C# to F#? Your example was indeed inelegant but it is also poorly designed as you take 4 lines to reproduce a function that is already built in, people can poorly design code in any language.

Of the three options, DIY battery packs, premade 100aH battery packs, or white glove powerwall a minimum wage earner would likely not have the skills to DIY the battery packs nor the money to pay for the powerwall. Battery packs are an effi

That number was from 2016 is useful in determining if it was worth it but not useful if it will be worth it staring today as the number has changed in the intervening 9 years. The number will keep changing with an estimate of $80 kWh by 203

There is a spectrum of DIY and the sweet spot depends on the person. Since I'm good with electronics my sweet spot is buying premade packs.

$20K for a home battery backup for someone capable of doing DIY would be far larger than what I assume he has built here. AFAIK the cheaper end is around $340 (2016) per kWh at 20 kWh that would be $6,800. In 2025 at $100 per kWh it would b

F# is a big language so I think it is to be expected that beginners will not know these things. I don't think the fix is to simplify F# we should just understand that F# is not for everyone and that is ok.

F# is a big language, it is a ML multi paradigm language that interoperates with C# so there is a lot of necessary complexity and many ways to do the same thing. A strong benefit of this is the ability to create a working functional paradig

Democracy in its current form of universal suffrage has only existed for a relatively short period of time and has a very different character to the long histories of democracies which had restricted suffrage.

While I would like to think that I have gotten a lot smarter in the last 20 years it seems more likely that other people have on average gotten a lot dumber. While I’m sure there are many causes I’m of the opinion that no stone should remai

Bureaucracies generally busy themselves by going after soft targets as they represent easy wins, an extra line item for the yearly review. There is a popular Australian TV show called Utopia that satirizes modern Australian government burea

Building rockets as cheaply as they did is the impressive part. The EU can certainly throw money at the problem but that doesn’t necessarily manifest cheap rockets. It’s a product of leadership and culture. My experience with the EU is one

I had PRP done in 2008 for $1K and it healed a 8 year old persistent knee injury within 3 months. That said I’m not sure if it’s necessarily the stem cells that did the healing or just the general irritation of the area that reminds the bod

I think it would be hard to do that and keep the aesthetics - there would be a curve on the edge wherever the stamping is done. Glue is a workaround that has it's own tradeoffs but is not without president.

I think due to drones there will be a trend towards very lightly armored vehicles that spend most of their time loitering with short periods of shoot-and-scoot. When even tanks can be destroyed by drones it doesn't make much sense to k

AFAIK DeLorean's are not cold rolled steel. CyperTrucks 1.4-1.8mm 1018 cold rolled versus 0.8mm 304 DeLorean. The thinner steel on the DeLorean makes is easier to work with enabling larger panels which need fewer flanges. It seems the

I think the surfaces are mated on the edges, there would be a bend on the edges if you were to install a flange there. That would probably look weird. It's cold rolled steel which has nice properties but makes it difficult to install f

Since it’s a trend it comes and goes, and the behavior spreads in a manner similar to fashion trends. Google pics for it, can you think of any other reason for an orca to wear a salmon on their head. Song birds also have similar fashions in

Plenty of animals go out of their way to be seen. If it’s a pretty bird it’s most likely a male bird. Animals at play do appear to show off to each other. Orcas wear salmons as hats as if it was a fast fashion trend. I don’t think humans ar

There are governments I do like, it is possible to govern well. I just think it's facile to work under the assumption that the answer is simple. That one simple change will take the US from point A to B. The US has radically changed fr

‘We’? Good luck with that. At least Tankies are honest about the degree of coercion required to get a population to agree on things.

That and danans 'one thing' seems rather simplistic / reductive. My view is the degradation of the US has been many things over a long time and we're lucky things lasted as long as they have been.
