I noticed a lot of the MSM eulogies focus on Chick being a pioneer of fusion, which is true, but only one of many of his musical facets.

I am so sad I will never see Chick perform live again, but mostly I'm sad the world has lost such a genuine, kind, decent, man and great artist who brought light to the world. The first time I saw him live at Yoshi's he performed

Not right now, but in the next 6 months we may be hiring. We would prefer in the Houston area, but remote may be possible.

I've worked in F# for seven years and your question stumped me. My company's code is all private Maybe try looking at the demo code for https://safe-stack.github.io/ I wish our online systems were #F Elmish style.

Ya know, I've never listened to Bright Size Life. I love Jaco's debut album. Now queued up to listen to after dinner. Thanks.

I've been doing almost nothing but F# for over 7 years, so I need to remember back to some of the things that used to throw me. The signature never lies. Although I intellectually understood this early on, sometimes when I was in the t

Ok, yeah, I broke the rules. The guy has to make a living. And I am always sympathetic to that. But consider the publication that published this.

Oh, actually it does deliver the message the MSM lackeys of the establishment are spreading. It was lacking the racism/alt-right component, but that message is targeted for a more specific echo chamber.

Sure, your coins are where the government can's touch them. But if you do not comply with the IRS reporting rules and your body is where the government can touch you, watch out. But you're right. If USG does go down this path of c

Yes. This would be new legal territory, but not radically new (IANAL). USG would certainly pick the case and the court to try it in carefully in order to establish the precedent.

Consider this: Every Satoshi can be traced back to when it was mined. The IRS now requires Americans and resident aliens filing income tax returns to report on their crypto holdings. Lots (maybe most?) people use exchanges like CoinBase. (R

Most of the other brokerages (Schwab, Etrade, and TD Ameritrade, but NOT Fidelity and Vanguard according to the reports I am getting) are participating. According to the rumor on Reddit https://www.reddit.com/r/ClassAct

It's more like I don't need to think about these things . F# gives you immutability by default (but let's you use it if you really need it for a more efficient algorithm) and eliminates nearly all null values. Nulls can stil

It kind of boils down (for me) to choosing a strongly typed functional language and relational database by default, justified by the theory behind those. I can be convinced, by myself or others, that a particular project calls for something

Stick with languages, tools, and techniques that respect the math theory. Category theory, type theory, set theory, relational algebra, 1st order predicate calculus, 2nd order predicate calculus. The OP has intuitively gravitated to this si

For F# implementations I suggest https://fsprojects.github.io/Argu/ as the command line argument handling library.

While this is entirely true, real assets don't get any realer than productive farmland. The Fed's super money creation policy of 2020 is resulting in a new landrush (pun intended) of well-funded entities into real assets.

It's worse than that. The government has essentially unlimited (time and money) resources to throw into a civil case. Even the most wealthy individuals are at a severe disadvantage. I'm not a legal scholar, but I find it bizarre t

There is a direct intellectual line of descent from classical liberals to 1960s liberals to the woke vocal elitists dominating tech culture, academia, and corporate media today. But liberal is no longer a good noun to represent them.

Coding in COBOL was a real downer after 2 years of assembly language coding. One register pointed to the top of all your main memory in assembler. Solving COBOL dumps required resolving pointers to pointers, and I had not kept good notes in

That is completely true. Although I don't think at the beginning Big Social Media realized how it would play out. They seem to be now committed to the we are moderating as fast as we can approach/excuse.
