All the comments are giving unequivocal yes’s, I’ll note that some cars (my buddy’s Subaru) will say they require premium but work just fine without. Currently going 240k miles still strong.

Everyone alive today has suffered. Everyone alive today will be dead in 150 years. Nothing anyone can do will change that. Yet, Life will go on. With or without humans. Don’t take it personally. It’s just Nature.

That’s more a critique of the author than the concept - I gave up midway through the article but order combinators remain a useful tool, particularly as a library. To my eyes, the logic here https://github.com/JacksonKearl&#

What is your complaint re precedence in Pratt parsing? The linked code properly implements precedence fairly trivially.

Those interested may find Pratt parsing compelling, it is easy to implement and works well for hobby parsers (production quality error messaging tends to require custom code). As an example here’s a quick and dirty expression evaluator I ma

Definitely not. You have to explicitly select a directory from a native file system UI then confirm both read and write access for each directory, across each domain, typically each session. And system directories are blocked outright with

We got $1200. The people who didn’t work at all got $30k plus in unemployment.

That’s basically what happened with the stimulus checks, and big surprise now we have massive inflation.

The entire local file system api, for one: https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/API/File_System... , which severely neuters any tooling designed to help you do real work on your own files.

GitHub’s REST api is pretty self discoverable fwiw. It kinda sucks honestly - every request yields pages of response with field after field of totally irrelevant links. Totally unparseable without json formatting and collapsing support, so

What about mechanically advancing wax rods? The question isn’t whether the unit price of a super-pen is less than that of a consumer-waxpencil, but rather the R&D cost of the super-pen vs that of a supposed super-waxpencil.

This post is about moving the GUI layer to Rust, away from the standard HTML/JS/CSS used in the apps you mention. That’s why I brought it up. My claim is that moving to Rust is useless without solving the unnecessary rerenders, an

I don't have access to such corporate software at the moment, but can you verify in devtools where the delay is actually coming from in the apps you mention? Leaping to "the stack is bad it needs to be rewritten in rust" is e

Unfortunately the days of assuming everyone has a mouse, keyboard, and at least 4”x6” of screen to place a window on are long gone.

Different levels of ability may exist, but the thinking “if people aren’t living the way I want to live, it must be because they can’t” is pervasive. By and large, people have agency. Assuming they are passive blobs forced into situations b

Sure, put it that way. I support it all the same. I’ve seen what happens when “the community” tries to replace police. Have you? (Spoiler alert, it resulted in a massive uptick in the Black death rate)

I’ve met plenty of police that want nothing more than general order in their jurisdictions. They come up to my car when I’m broken down on the side of the road and ask if there’s anything they can do to help. I’ve also met police that go ou
