What is a good example of needing to cancel a promise besides the data fetch scenario? If any other type of async action takes long enough to run to be cancelled it would have to be in a worker thread (so it won't run in the UI thread)

Given you're outsourcing your ideation to the public why not just form a seed fund and invest in other people's ideas?

Any update on algebraic effects for single-threaded structured concurrency? In vanilla JS we can implement structured concurrency using generators as primitives. How do we implement structured concurrency in Reason?

Degaussing 3 times. Who does that when deleting data? Unless they don't want investigators to find the data? And isn't the data in this case a public record? Why delete a public record indelibly unless they had manipulated that re

Still with all these hurt feelings etc, what breakthrough work has come of out of China?

The one posted yesterday from OpenAI. Hierarchical learning. Also, DeepMind's relational NN. I can dig up others from memor after caffiene. DeepMind is at Google which is a Silicon Valley co. True about Canada, but salaries in Canada d

Thb, most of the interesting work I've seen has come out of Silicon Valley. What breakthroughs have come from China?

Degaussing 3 times is not evidence of knowingly deleting evidence. I find that laughable.

"They could claim the wipe was to protect voter privacy though, in which case one would expect them to make the data unrecoverable." Not after a lawsuit is filed. That's obstruction of justice regardless of what they claim. N

I think the email itself is evidence of crime. Why bother with recovering the data when the absence of it allows the prosecution to portray the worst imaginable criminal scenario. They actually shot themselves in the foot because no matter

But then that would incriminate them even more! right? because it's not just "We erased it to make room for new data" ... This is in the realm of obstruction of justice.

Data Recovery tools can still get the data, no?

Naively, alert his bank that he was stealing money from everyone and share the PayPal email with them. I wasn't aware at the time that I could take the matter to small claims court. PayPal offered no assistance as far as laying out wha

The only purchase I ever done on eBay was in 2002 for a PocketPC. It never came. I reported the seller. They said 22 others were scammed and PayPal, their partner in crime, said that they couldn't reveal the seller's personal deta

What's wrong with Arab culture? It's like an Irish man at the turn of the century arguing that Irish culture is different from Italian culture and is worth checking out. Ridiculous.

Wouldn't that mess with our nuclear early warning system? How can you tell if it's an ICBM nuke or a passenger rocket?

Nice national security cover to preempt lawsuits. Can't be sued if Uncle Sam failed to protect you. Or can you still be sued?

"Ex-Christians _routinely_ complain that youtube censors their videos criticizing Christianity." Has that not happened, too? Just reversing roles for the sake of argument. Curiously wondering...
