I would say a shy person doesn't fear social situations, but might be at the beginning a bit reserved, needs a bit more time to warm up with foreign people and might be a bit overwhelmed when meeting to much foreign people at once.

For an introverted it's really draining to always see the same pattern in threads about introversion: that it's mixed with shyness and social anxiety, and that all three are considered to be overcomable in the same way.

But you really have to be careful not to mix introversion, shyness and social anxiety. They might somehow look the same, but they certainly aren't and you can't just overcome your introversion like you can overcome your shyness or

You can't change the commit message of a commit without changing the commit, which in most cases is a bad idea, if you don't know pretty much exactly what your doing. Replacing one heuristic with another won't make this a sta

I don't think that 'git undo' can tell with certainty which entries in the reflog are from it. It would be a crude heuristic that's going to break.

by dan00 10y ago
Nice idea! The only non intuitive thing might be, that calling e.g. 'git undo' twice doesn't undo the last two changes, but the first undos the last change and the second one undos the undo.

Thanks! I just thought their might be some quite important technical reasons for this decision. After all overloading the return type is quite usual and extremly helpful for parsing or the conversion of types. But these kind of operations m

If there's a function and a method named to_string the user would've to be explicit about which one he uses by adding a namespace, like ToString. If there's only one to_string function or method, the compiler could just take

I like it, because you get somehow the best of both worlds, on one side you're getting explicit error handling and on the other the convenience of exceptions, that you can just "raise" them and they propagate upwards in the c

by dan00 10y ago
Why can't it be written as: .map_err(to_string) When using the lambda the type is inferred, so why should there be a need for the ToString?

Fear takes every kind of pleasure. So the fear of not looking smart, not feeling smart, might be already enough to dislike certain kind of things. But there's certainly also a difference in people without fear - like you said - how muc

There're even people that don't like the automatic moving in Rust, because they can't see where something is moved. I can understand why people feel that way, but it's a bit irrational, because if automatic behaviour can

No, the memory isn't lost, it's still reachable. It's more about using more memory than really needed, holding the unevaluated computation in memory instead of just the result of the computation.

Yes, that's certainly a good point. What if someone really wants to go into finance, likes its money and prestige and now he might be even able, thanks to effective altruism, to appease his morally doubts.

Looking it, one suggestion came up, that you should go for a career where you can earn as much as possible, because then you could gave more money away, use it for something good. So finance came up and I'm not gonna to say, that finan

It might help to start with something more low level, like writing a compiler and emulator for an assembly language. A quite good candidate for this are artificial, simplified cpus, like the dcpu16.
