If you're going to make a claim like "'the blank slate' conception of the world continues to mislead us", it wouldn't hurt to have more than a series of what-ifs.

It seems wonderful for people who can't as easily use a keyboard, but for most people, this doesn't seem any easier than using a keyboard. Am I missing something?

There is a field with 256 elements, because 256 is the power of a prime. But that field is not the integers mod 256: it has different rules for addition and multiplication.

I don't know about this. Even some of the people who use dependently typed proof assistants seem to doubt that they should be used much in the programming part (as opposed to the proving part). Also, some of the examples you give might

A dollar times a dollar is a dollar squared. You don't need a spec for that! For example, if you have a random variable that's in dollars, its variance would have units of dollars squared. People consider the variance of dollar es

Actually, how did KiwiFarm's usage stats change after they practically got kicked off the web?

Very pretty! > Diffusion based workflows will have none of the downsides, and all of the upsides, compared to either approach. But isn't this true in the same way as tracing over 3D has the "upsides" of both approaches?

Why? They aren't offering an end-to-end encrypted service, so as far as I know Australia's laws aren't much worse than, say, the US' laws in this regard.

Right up until programming becomes so accessible that it isn't even a job any more, it's just something that everyone does.

You can of course use arenas in Rust just like in C. I think the parent was talking about support for using arenas as the memory for stuff like built-in containers (dynamic arrays, hash maps, etc.): https://github.com/rust

> RAII handles that perfectly. I'm not sure about this. If you're asking whether arena allocators can handle resource cleanup, then I think the answer is yes. One way to do it is to embed an intrusive linked list of destructors

Hey, don't let me tell you how to run your website, but it took me a while to realize that I should scroll. You could add a little "scroll down ↓" indicator that fades in after a bit.

Yep, hence the ad blocking arms race. But my point is that I wouldn't say I'm "hypocritical" or that I'm "breaking [an] agreement" by trying to conceal my identity; in fact, I'm doing the reasonable t

Maybe I'm misunderstanding you, but you don't need to understand DNS to set up email with a custom domain. Providers like Fastmail are happy to handle all of that for you.

Sincerely: how do you know that? Child labor is illegal, so I don't know how many families would feel a need for their children to work if it were legal.

Is that kind of support really possible? Isn't our society literally built on coercing people to work under threat of starvation?

I'm fine with admins being able to link accounts; I'm sure that's very useful for spam prevention. But ideally, I don't want members of the public to be able to link accounts. Maybe you're right; maybe it is hopeles

Hopefully accessing the website from different networks was enough to avoid that, but yeah, maybe.
