YES! "A History of Philosophy Without Any Gaps" is the best place imho for anyone to just into learning philosophy. I'd also recommend "The Great Ideas of Philosophy, 2nd Edition" on audible. https://www.

Omg I love this! I'd love to put some time aside to study the techniques used here. Very cool (and probably fun) project you have here. :)

Just so I understand, is Browsix running on top of WASI... or are you saying that Browsix will have an option to target WASI? Browsix looks pretty cool, although it's hard to wrap my mind around use-cases outside porting common C libs

As someone living in Los Angeles, I used to take a Bird all the time because there was always one nearby when I had to go somewhere. However in the last two months, this has dramatically changed. Now the closest scooter is on average a 10m

Pablo Dobarro's work around improving sculpting is really incredible, and imho, makes Blender compete as a zbrush alternative (at least as a solid casual alternative). If you want to see this project succeed, you can donate to his patr

Truly. JC literally largely made gaming what it is today. I remember reading that virtually every game users code he has written, because almost every game engine uses his code in some form.

Thanks, we're in the process of connecting directly with different communities. There's a few towns in California that we're working with to bring local civil debate topics to the platform. It's actually been a common to

Ah, thanks for that feedback. Would you like to try your hand of writing a better summary here? It would be appreciated, as it's hard to improve from just a single word criticism (cringe).

Thank you. We really need more examples... and hopefully a full guide to futures/async. As someone currently in the outskirts of the Rust community, it's really hard to 'peer inside' what's happening and how to use

It's incredible the amount of research and brainstorming it took to develop this solution. Does anyone know more about the author? Is this a hobby project? Either way, these optimizations [system design] are super impressive.

It was one of the easiest languages for me to learn, and I felt I was as productive in it as Py/Node (that I've used for years) with only about 2 weeks of playing with D on the side. There's a lot of intuitional things that D

This is a nice response, thanks. The one miscalculation here is it's clear that representational democracy is also rife with demagoguery. Because the system is 'slower', it gives those in power the ability to cause damage to

I kinda want Observable to be it's own language that can compile to JS... not saying it would be a good general purpose lang by any means, but it would be interesting to experiment with a 'first-class observable' language.

Often you cannot give the proper context of why an action is prefered until you debate/speak of the principles. For example, we both may want healthcare, but there isn't an easy 'action' to arrive at without discussing t

Oh god, no. By not voting, I've surrendered to what the entire crowd wants by average (which might be entirely counter to the direction I want). By giving my vote to someone else to cast, I temporarily empower my leader who stands for

Couldn't you have both? You have the right to a direct vote, but you also have the option to bestow your vote to a representative to cast for you. Seems like a neat idea and solves many of these structureless problems. Many people know

It also gives Apple far more control over the ecosystem. By not providing 3rd parties access to email, Apple makes themselves not only the controllers of the physical devices and also over the full identity of their users. My viewpoint is o
