I think you've taken it backwards. The comment you were replying to is listing features that lead to robustness (many of which appear in strongly-typed functional languages in the ML family), not essential aspects of functional program

That's a pretty incredible improvement. Was that from ongoing therapy over years, or did it gradually improve by itself after your childhood treatment?

I've been using tiny dried shrimp (bought from a Vietnamese grocery) and a little extra fish sauce as a sort-of substitute and I've been very happy with the final product.

I think the main difference between the two is, as someone reading and debugging the code, will probably eventually check even those methods that I assume I know roughly what they do. In contrast, I may not even think to check an overloaded

Genuine question - what makes it "more async"? From what I can gather, it has no notification dots or "online" status. Is there also something inherent to the conversation structure that makes it "more async"?

For me it was telling youtube to not remember my watch history. No watch history -> no homepage suggestions -> much less compulsion. And subscriptions still work well enough to be usable. Turns out, not knowing whether I've watch

And specifically, Brassica oleracea shows up against lead, though no amount is given in that table. The referenced webpage [1] mentions 0.1% to 3% (!) of dry weight, though that's in relation to hyperaccumulators generally. This articl

Just to clarify, is it a platform written in Clojure, is it for small web apps written in Clojure, or is it both of the above?

Yup, my understanding is that salt suppresses many bacteria, then the acid produced by lactobacteria (hopefully) suppresses botulism. Essential to ensure you have enough sugars to convert to acid! Test the pH in your ferments if you're

They rhyme perfectly in an Australian accent :D Not rhotic, plus the vowel in "sauce" tends towards "or" rather than "ah". Hope that's a comprehensible explanation of our esoteric pronunciation :)

These days they may have a better association with "ketchup". My sister affirms that (Heinz) ketchup and tomato sauce are distinct products, but I'm not so sure.

I've heard of Indian dry mango pickles that are ~20 years old! I guess a product that is dominantly colonised by harmless bacteria is unlikely to be taken over by nasty things, unless it sports food that is tasty to harmful organisms a

Is that so? As an Aussie, Heinz is not a new brand for me, but I definitely associate them with beans before ketchup (tomato sauce (dead horse in rhyming slang)). Canned baked beans are not thought of as a natural nor healthy option - is th
